[Dave snags it out of the air, because that, at least, is familiar. Is it bad that having stuff randomly chucked at him gives him a quick shot of that warm, homey feel?]

Poor Princess came into the room a little flustered and hustled, with a item censored for your imagination in her muff. She found Cherry looking like she doesn't give a fuck as usual. Princess Donna was a modern-looking girl of twenty-three; tall, thin, smart and just the right shape; not pretty, but had the body for anyone to care, with thick dark hair and strongly marked eyebrows, a rather long and narrow face, delicately modelled, a clear white complexion, and soft, sincere brown eyes. (Shit it's like they're setting her up to be the perfect porn star.)
Cherry Torn was known as a beauty. She was indeed improbably pretty, small, plump and very fair, with soft golden hair that was silky and yet fluffy, perfectly regular little features, and a kind of infantine sweetness, combined with an almost incredible cleverness that was curious and fascinating. She was of a type remote equally from the fashion-plate and the suffragette, and was so physically attractive that one could hardly be near her without longing to put out a finger and touch her soft, fair face or her soft hair; as one would like to touch a fuckin' porn star. And yet one felt that it would not be an entirely safe thing to do; like she secretly was a furry or something. But it is probable that a large average of her acquaintance had been weak enough-or strong enough-to give way to the temptation and take the risk.
This charming little creature sat in a room furnished in clear, pale colours-that was pink, white and blonde like herself. Princess Donna sat down without greeting her, saying in a surly voice,
He’s refused again ... more excuses ... always, always excuses!"
Well, all the better; excuses are a form of compliment. I’d far rather have a lot of apology and attenuation than utter coolness,” said Cherry Torn consolingly. She had a low, even voice, and rarely made a gesture. Her animation was all in her eyes. They were long, bluish-grey, with dark lashes, and very expressive.
“Oh, you’dlikea man to fuck and say that he couldn’t come to dinner because it was his mother’s birthday, and he always spend the night with her on that occasion, and besides he was in deep mourning for his exploding cat, and was going to the first night at the Sundowner, and was expecting some old friends up from the country to stay with him, and would be out of town scoring at the time?”
“Certainly; so much inventive ingenuity is most flattering. Don’t you think it’s better than to say on the telephone that he's a douche bag who needs to be set on fire?” said Cherry Torn.
Tom Thumbs doesn't deserve that! He’s intensely polite; politeness is ingrained in his nature even if his cat liked to take dumps on his favorite seat. (So much for pets being like their owners). I’m rather hopeless about it all; and yet when I think how sometimes when I speak to him and he doesn’t answer but wonders when the fuck he's getting his moneys worth
"How well I know that shitty thought is discouraging yet spurring you on to further efforts! ... Tom Thumbs! What a name! How can people be called Tom? It isn’t done, you’re not living in shitville, you must change the man’s name, dear. It's not like he has a fuckin' awesome pony. ”
“Indeed I sha’n’t! Nonsense; it’s a beautiful name! Tom Thumbs! It suits him; it suits me. Cherry, you can’t deny it’s a handsome, noble face, like some dude we don't care about. And he must take a certain amount of interest in me, because he wants me to learn more, to be more cultured. He’s so accomplished! He knows simply everything. The other day he sent me a book called sex positions 101.”
“Did he, though? How jolly!"
"A little volume of sexing, too-that tiny edition, beautifully bound.” Cherry Torn made an inarticulate sound. “And you know he found out my birthday, and sent me a few dark red roses and something that is seriously still not a fuckin' pony.
“Nothing like being up to date,” said Cherry Torn “Right up to the day after to-morrow! Tom always is. How did he find out your birthday?”
“How do you think? I cut the bullshit and told him".
“Ah, I thought perhaps it was some ingenious plan like that. I should think that’s the way he usually finds out things-by being told.”
“Cherry, why do you sneer at him?”
“Did I not make it clear I want you to fuck me, bitch? Forget about that douchebag.“
“ But I'm not the furry here. A-oh, Cherry Torn!“
And then they fucked the end. A hundred girls came running during, set on fire by some strange mysterious reason, lighting all the candles in the area before running out. Tom Thumbs later exploded like his cat, both survived but he never got that name change.

[For once, Dave is a great listener. Maybe there are benefits to getting the kid sick--or maybe it's just Dirk. He doesn't interrupt, he chuckles quietly (ow, laughing hurts) in all the right places (okay, and some of the wrong ones, but hell, this is great), and eventually he stops trying to read along, just lets his head fall on the pillow again and listens.
I'm not saying Bro read little Dave porn star Cinderella when he was growing up, but I'm not saying he didn't, either.]
[It is something like three in the morning, though, and if Dirk checks, it's clear Dave fell asleep sometime before the mysterious fire of the hundred babes.
