The New Neighbors Meme

the n e w neighbors meme


What's all that bumping and stomping coming from next door?! This is supposed to be a nice high-rise in a good part of town!

-Post with your character.
-You're a resident at a nice high-rise apartment in the big city.
(You might have lived there a long time or just moved in yourself - up to you. Maybe mention what activity you're in the middle of doing at home when the racket starts up?)
-People who reply are noisily moving in to the apartment next door.
-Thread out your arguments, offers to help, and new-neighbor meet-and-greets!

Oh, GODDAMN it!

[Yanno, she doesn't normally mind, but she was in the middle of sleeping! And it was a good dream, with a Turian in her bed and everything!

So here, Sherlock, have an angry military woman pounding at your door. If you didn't hear her cursing before.]
I know you're up!

[personal profile] lostwithoutmyblogger 2012-03-20 06:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Really?

[Yanking the door open. He may have a human foot in one hand?]

What was your first hint?
pinkspectre: (being stern)

[personal profile] pinkspectre 2012-03-20 06:26 pm (UTC)(link)
There are these things! They are called firing range...what are you doing with that?

[Yes, he didn't have to even say anything to stop her mid rant.]

Are you blowing people up in there?
lostwithoutmyblogger: (thought that was what I was propsing?)

[personal profile] lostwithoutmyblogger 2012-03-20 06:27 pm (UTC)(link)
...in the strictest sense of the question, yes, but they're all dead and consenting.

[personal profile] pinkspectre 2012-03-20 06:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Why can't you go look up the research? Or back to my previous complaint, a firing range, like a man with common sense?

Because no one has done this sort of research, and because none of the firing ranges in the city will have me after the fresh fruit incident last year.

I highly doubt that.

[She sighs tiredly, leaning against the door frame.] Listen, Mr. Holmes. I am not a marine anymore, and I was hoping that I would be able sleep in. You know, not waking up to the sound of gunfire, explosions, or screaming music.

I have woken up to all three before five am for the past week since moving in. Are you trying to run me off, or are you that oblivious?
lostwithoutmyblogger: (i <3 my fungus)

[personal profile] lostwithoutmyblogger 2012-03-20 06:59 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm not trying to run you off, commander.

[Not that she's actually told him her rank.]

But my line of work requires odd hours.
pinkspectre: (wicked grin)

[personal profile] pinkspectre 2012-03-20 07:13 pm (UTC)(link)
Can I at least ask for no war zone noises from midnight to sunrise? Or, you know, allocating some of that cadaver and ammo budget to a little more sound proofing? Hell, you need help footing the bill, I'll give it?

[She rubs her eyes.] You overheard me talking to John about our 'glory days'?

[Because he is always, always going to be roomies with Watson.]

I saw your right boot, and looked at your magazine subscription.

[Gesturing dismissively.]

What about this- nothing from midnight to, say- nine am, unless a human life depends on haste?
pinkspectre: (a real smile for once)

[personal profile] pinkspectre 2012-03-20 07:25 pm (UTC)(link)
That, I can work with. I'll try to keep the same deal.

And my right boot?

Thad was just trying to relax. After his day, he just wanted to lay back and rest a little. But all that noise from next door was not cooperating. Letting out a slightly annoyed huff, the blond speedster got up and went next door to investigate just who these new neighbors were. Sure, he could have just used some of his technology to spy but he was trying to stop doing the 'evil' stuff. Peeking into the open door from the hallway, he looked around.

"Hello?"

It was Loki's lucky day! Sheogorath was his new neighbor. Of course he may not know that. After all the man looked rather unassuming if a bit strangely dressed. He was doing all of the box-carrying himself which some might consider difficult for a man appearing to be a bit on the older side of things.

"Just a second!" Bart called out from somewhere amid the stacks of boxes amid second-hand furniture and some killer electronics. It took a bit longer than that to turn off the stereo and around one of the walls of stuff. "Just trying to get things in..."

Then he saw who it was, and he went cold.
