This is a small rp between gracie and jimmy. Please don't post in here... or at least ask. but, this is so me and chobi can keep tabs on our rp regardless of what's going on in the shop. biggrin
Gracie was sitting on a sling chair out in front of her house. She was sulking because the last visitor she had simply came to eat her food and then left. She really was starting to feel a little loathe with the business of having lots of people live in her house, feed people.. and noone stick around to keep her company. What in the world.. Didn't anyone wanna spend a lick of time with her?

Jimmy was walking through town with one hand in his pocket, the other playing with a lighter. Flipping on and off and on and off, it was amusing to him. He wandered if he would get caught if he suddenly decided to light one of these houses on fire. That would be amusing.
His train of thought stopped when he noticed a girl sitting in a sling chair infront one of the houses. He slipped the lighter back into his pocket and gingerly walked over onto her porch. His step had a bit of pop in it as always Jimmy was care free.
"Why the long face?" He asked with a smile, Jimmy could be blunt sometimes.

Gracie was rather startled as she wasn't really expecting any form of life to suddenly happen by. She jumped up and looked at him, almost falling back on her rear. "whhaa..."
Once she calmed down and was done looking like an idiot, her cheeks pinked a little. "Um... I guess I was just thinking about all the people who I try to help... and how yet... I am ever lonely.. and I wonder if any of them really like me at all..." Wow. that sounded.. so ... EMO.

Jimmy was leaning over her inspecting her after she finished. He was really checking her out, but he made it look like he was making sure that she was okay after the fall. After his eyes were done scanning her over he smiled offering her a hand up.
"Lonely eh?" He said after she was lifted back up to standing. "Hmmmm, wonder how I could help you there." He winked at her, "Would you mind if I stuck around, if your lonely and all what choice do I have?" His hand was back in his pocket and he was secretely fiddling with the lighter that lay rested there. "I'm Jimmy by the way."

Gracie grinned sheepishly. "Yeah. I dunno... I don't always do that.. I swear..."
She looked to the side feeling a little silly for acting like a huge dork. Honestly, even though she was a grown up, she could really act like such a teen at times.
"Oh.. well.. nice to meet you Jimmy. I'm Gracie. This is my cabin.. and I like it becuase all the houses are on the other side of the river. So.. I can fish to my hearts content over here.. and not be bothered with the town drama that goes on sometimes." She made a swirling motion on the side of her head insinuating some of the town drama is ridiculous and kind of crazy.

"Town drama?" Jimmy really didnt go out of his way to meet new people truth be told. He was happy and safe in his pimped out house in his recording studio. He liked to goof off with the equipment most of the time not really recording anything. He had been pretty sheltered from town drama.
Only that one night at the bar when that blond fellow had picked on that girl. That was drama, picking on such a cute girl. Of course Jimmy thought just about every girl he came across with a nice figure was cute.
"Yeah I am not really around town much to get the full fledged version of that." His hand that was fiddling with the lighter left his pocket and ran through his pink hair. "I mostly just play with my recording equipment," He admitted he was a good for nothing for not even trying to make new friends but hey this was vacation. And he was happy with Reno since Reno pretty much gave him his space and drank with him every night.

She fidgeted a little. "Yeah... well, when I first came here... I accidentally set someone's house on fire." She gave this look of sigh and rolling her eyes like whatever... "Yeah so anyways... I like being out here.. it just... I have been making more of an effort to make friends this year. but noone who lives here ever actually sticks around to hang out with me. they either sleep or eat here.. and then go about their business..."
She just chewed her lip while she rubbed her right arm with her left hand. She was suddenly feeling a little weird spilling her guts to someone she didn't. If this continued, she'd have to come up with a diversion.

"Right on!" Jimmy said after she had told him she had set someones home on fire by mistake, "Thats freaking awesome!" He liked fire, he liked anything chaotic really. It was in his nature. Jimmy could be a bit crazy at times, and his morals at times were out of wack.
"Do you ever go visit them?" He inquired amused at her fire story, that gave her major props with him. She had his attention at her mercy now. Jimmy was drawn in.

Gracie laughed a little that he was getting a kick out of this. "Um.. actually I did... because I was trying to not let anyone find out it was me... because I didn't know it.. but there was a girl asleep in her house.. and she was buried beneath some debris..." She looked a good deal sheepish again.
"But.. I have been to her house to have a slumber party with someone else. The girl is really nice. I think she would have been royally ticked with me.. but, it ended up that she got to move in with a boy she really likes a lot. heh.. I try to play it off that I helped her score." She smiled and winked at him with that insinuating type of motion.
"Yeah.. and just hte other day I was up fishing in one of the ponds a ways off.. and while i was pulling a crawfish out the pond.. flung it right into some guy's face.. man... i get some.. uncanny bad luck sometimes."

Jimmy wasnt really one to believe in luck. Luck just seemed unreal to him. He more looked at life as a whole bunch of planned out events where you just had to take things as you got them. No other driving force behind the events just stuff happenes.
"Bad luck huh?" He said with a monotoned voice. He scratched his ear not really wanting to state his opinion on the whole luck thing. So he kept his mouth shut.
"haha," Jimmy laughed thinking back to what she had just said. Help her friend score, "I havent gotten any in a while," He began being unsensitive to the fact that he didnt know gracie well enough to be having a conversation like this, "You know what I mean, havent really had the pleasure of having any girl company in a while." It was sad but true. Only girl that came over to Reno and Jimmies place willingly was Tiffany. Jimmy had heard about that causing trouble back home with a certain boyfriend of hers.

"Well.. I'm not really even talking about all that type of thing for myself. Geez.. I mean.. but sometimes it's nice to feel like there's someone else to talk to but the fish that won't talk with me... "
Then, she stopped and realized he has been standing just talking to her. "You want some root beer? I got some in my fridge. I can grab a few... and some doritos..." clever diversion

Jimmy was a bit confused when she offered him snacks, "Well," He began. He was going to refuse the snacks but she seemed in need of some company and snacks would keep him longer so he nodded," yeah that sounds good," He said as he sat down on her porch oh one of the steps.
Her house sure was nice, it was simple and away from all the hustle and bustle of the town. Even though the hustle and bustle didnt really effect him it was nice. Jimmy pulled out his lighter and started to open and close it again.

Gracie returned handing him a glass bottle. She sat down on the porch steps next to him. "So Jimmy... what brought you out to my parts? not many randomly come by here... .... did you know my house is one of hte only ones with a wooden deck out front? If you're gonna have a forest cabin.. gotta have a wooden deck..."
She drank from her glass bottle of root beer. She really had been wanting someone to spend time with her. Her mind was thinking now though. Maybe... he'd be willing to just hang out for a while or something. She was really happy she decided to wear her pirate t-shirt dress that day... His attire said that he must be into pirates and fishnet fashion.

Jimmy didnt really want to answer why he had been out onto these parts, really he was looking for random things to burn. Leaves, bugs, houses, he had stolen Reno's lighter and been burning ants with it all mornings. He rather not say that. So he lied.
"I just wanted to get some fresh air, been locked up indoors for so long you know it starts to get to you," Well that was half of the truth, he did want some fresh air.
Jimmy took a big swig of the root beer, it was cool to the touch but refreshing. He was glad that he had stopped to hang out for a bit.

Gracie drank more of her soda. "I'm sorry.. am I being terribly boring?"
She was starting to think maybe she was just not a very exciting person. Maybe that was why noone hung out with her.. or maybe it was just she smelled too much of fish...
