Cyber Monday

The WAL-MART meme




Open 24-hours, in large cities Wal-Mart is a place people show up to shop mindlessly for anything they need. In small towns, it may be literally the only business open after 10pm, making it an unlikely hang-out for locals.

Regardless of where it's located, Wal-Mart always seems to have the strange effect of making time crawl, as the aisles stretch on into infinity, and the tinny in-store music plays on a loop.


RULES:

Post to the meme.
Shop. Anything can be found at Wal-Mart, and in a meme, perhaps that's truer than ever
Get lost in the endless aisles.
Get found in the cafe.
Find a friend. Find an enemy. Find an employee
Have fun.

Piccolo 🥒 Dragon Ball

[personal profile] postboy 2023-11-27 08:51 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Piccolo grumbles ceaselessly as he pushes a cart around. Words like 'can't believe this' and 'running errands' and 'they better appreciate this' and so forth. Just as he turns a corner to his main target, it's time to see there's only one oversized penguin left and someone else has their hand on it. ]

Hey! I need that.

Then you should have been faster.

[Grumbles the unusualy tall and heavyly scarred man before he places the giant stuffed toy into his cart. The twins had made their wishes known for the ridiculous thing and Maedhros had no intention of disappointing them, no matter how frivolous he found the giant penguin to be.]

Torvald Bergström | OC | Ziggy Stardust Tour | OTA

[personal profile] bankarhelanatten 2023-11-27 08:54 pm (UTC)(link)
[Torvald has arrived in LA off the plane and is buying food in Walmart because he's drunk and hungry. He's also texting Niko, or trying to, while also phoning the apartment number to try and get in contact with someone. He might have attracted attention with all the phone ringing he's doing at the apartments.]

Jake was cuddled up and resting, not quite sleeping yet, but enjoying the time away from people. Niko's phone had vibrated from texts, then a call, and another call. Grumbling Jake got up and answered the phone.

"Fuck you, Heikki." Jake answered, sleepy and grouchy, assuming it was the annoying older brother on the phone.
bankarhelanatten: (cheeky)

[personal profile] bankarhelanatten 2023-11-28 10:22 am (UTC)(link)
Torvald was already getting some odd looks from other shoppers as he stuffed a load of booze bottles into his shopping cart, while now zooming down the aisle going towards the donut stand.

"Niko? Is that you?"

The boy was trashed, so didn't understand the voice. Was this a joke? Had he got the wrong number?

"Who the fuck is Heikki?"
unholyterror: (Washed out)

[personal profile] unholyterror 2023-11-28 01:40 pm (UTC)(link)
"No." Jake snapped and then the voice got through the sleepiness. That didn't sound like Heikki.

"Who the fuck are you?" Jake wasn't any less grouchy now that he had no idea who was on the other end of the line.
bankarhelanatten: (Default)

[personal profile] bankarhelanatten 2023-11-28 01:43 pm (UTC)(link)
Who the hell was on Niko's phone? Had someone stolen it? Fuck! This was the sort of thing to happen with Niko because Torvald knew how crazy and drunk the guitarist could get. He'd lost his fake ID so many fucking times already.

"I'm Torvald. Uh---Niko's drummer. I'm in this big food store place and I'm stocking up on booze and food before I get to the apartments."

Whoever this guy was, Torvald had just told him what his plans were because he was drunk and didn't give a fuck right now.
unholyterror: (Deep in thought)

[personal profile] unholyterror 2023-11-28 01:49 pm (UTC)(link)
"He's asleep and so the fuck was I until you started blowing up his phone." Now Jake was both grouchy. His mind was not clear enough to realize it was normal for band members to be looking for each other. No, he was stuck on all the phone calls that forced him to get up.

"Asleep? Well, uh I suppose that's normal since it's 3am or whatever the fuck the time is."

The Swede shrugged and nearly bashed into the donut stand because he wasn't looking where he was going. How much booze had he drunk on the plane anyway? Shit loads. Who was this grouchy douchebag with Niko's phone?

"Who the fuck is this anyway and why do you have Niko's phone?"
unholyterror: (Shadowed pout)

[personal profile] unholyterror 2023-11-28 02:03 pm (UTC)(link)
"Yeah it is." Jake growled into the phone and headed toward the kitchen. He wasn't going to get back to sleep any time soon.

"Jake." And Jake was fucking grouchy as hell. "The one with your guitarist in my coffin. Where the fuck I was but you don't understand no one answering a damned phone."

Jake needed some coffee.
bankarhelanatten: (chaos)

[personal profile] bankarhelanatten 2023-11-28 02:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Torvald felt a little bad about waking this guy up because he'd been asleep, but then most people were asleep at this hour. Fuck the timezone shit and all of that. The Swede was a bit jet lagged but mostly just drunk.

"Jake? Sorry about waking you up, kompis. Just uh--fuck, I just got off the plane and---"

Wait, what? Did this guy just say he had Niko inside of a fucking coffin? Was this a joke from one of the people on the tour? It had to be. A vampire joke or something. Torvald was too drunk to understand so just laughed.

"A coffin? What the fuck? Ok, well I'm getting food and booze so I'll be going to the apartments soon after to meet up with Niko. Are you there with him?"
unholyterror: (Sassy)

[personal profile] unholyterror 2023-11-28 02:14 pm (UTC)(link)
Jake was now making coffee and set the phone down on the counter on speaker.

"Yeah, my coffin. He's fucked out." Jake started to laugh finally. "He's not at the apartments. He doesn't stay there."

Which was true, most of the time, unless Jake had a work schedule that kept him away a lot.
bankarhelanatten: (hairspray FUCK YEAH!)

[personal profile] bankarhelanatten 2023-11-28 02:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Torvald didn't understand at first but now he was getting a final picture as he was paying for his items and leaving the store. Bags rattling with booze bottles and stuffed full of donuts.

"You sleep in a coffin? Are you Count fucking Dracula?!"

The Swede just went wide-eyed and laughed a little as he waited at the nearest taxi stop for his ride.

"Fuck. He's not there? Then, where is he? With you? Dracula man. Where shall I tell the taxi guy to stop because I want to see Niko."

It then dawned on the young man that if Niko was with this weirdo then---that would mean he'd found someone. A new boyfriend. That part hurt a little but then Torvald had moved on after Niko but they remained friends still.
unholyterror: (Jake)

[personal profile] unholyterror 2023-11-28 02:28 pm (UTC)(link)
"Yes." Jake was pouring a cup of coffee while listening to the guy on the other end shuffling the items at check out.

"I told you he's in my coffin." Jake started to laugh and then rolled his eyes. "You're some fucking stranger and just inviting yourself to my house?" The sigh from Jake was one that anyone else would have thought was Davy. He was so put out by this guy on the other end of the phone.
bankarhelanatten: (flirty)

[personal profile] bankarhelanatten 2023-11-28 07:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Torvald shook his head, not knowing what to think of this guy and his weird obsession with sleeping in a fucking coffin. The main reason though was Niko was apparently sleeping with this guy so must trust him. Torvald knew Niko was trashy and loose so didn't know if this was a serious relationship or not.

"I just want to see Niko. Please?"

The Swede was alien to this big city and knew no one. It was rather daunting when it was pitch black outside at 3am with lots of people milling around outside, some not very desirable ones.
unholyterror: (Default)

[personal profile] unholyterror 2023-11-28 07:28 pm (UTC)(link)
Jake grumbled out a sigh.

"Fine." Jake rolled his eyes and gave Torvald his address. "But Niko's sleeping so you won't see him until morning."
bankarhelanatten: (cheeky)

[personal profile] bankarhelanatten 2023-11-28 07:52 pm (UTC)(link)
"Thanks, Dracula. I'll be around in a few."

The taxi soon showed up and Torvald stuffed his bags of booze and donuts into the trunk and then set off towards the address the guy gave. What a weirdo though. A fucking coffin? Niko was really with this guy? The Swede shook his head laughing as he relaxed a little, knowing he was on his way to see his band mate.

***

Half an hour later and Torvald was walking up to the address with his bags of shopping. Pushing the bell once he waited.
unholyterror: (Calm)

[personal profile] unholyterror 2023-11-28 07:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Jake had managed to get a cup of coffee down and get into some pants. He wasn't in the mood to get dressed. He really wanted to go back to sleep. The person at the door had Jake rolling his eyes. His hair is still all over the place and he might have blood on himself still but this guy could deal. It was the middle of the night.

Jake opened the door and gave the guy a critical look over. "Torvald?"
bankarhelanatten: (big hair)

[personal profile] bankarhelanatten 2023-11-28 08:01 pm (UTC)(link)
Torvald didn't know what to expect when the door opened and the tall man with white streak in his black hair opened the door. Oh, he sort of looked like a vampire because of the---wait. Was that blood on him? Oh gods, Niko was sleeping with a real fucking vampire! But, that was stupid. It couldn't be real. Torvald was drunk so his mind was being crazy right now. That, and he was jet lagged and tired.

"Jake? Sorry to wake you. I brought some things to eat and drink."

The bags of shopping were for Torvald and Niko to share but he was willing to share with Jake too since the man was inviting him into his house.
unholyterror: (Washed out)

[personal profile] unholyterror 2023-11-28 08:05 pm (UTC)(link)
"Yeah." Jake rolled his eyes again and stepped aside. "Niko is still sleeping."

Jake wanted to be sleeping too if he was honest but the polite thing was to stay up at least for a little while. He looked at the bags and nodded. "Thanks."
bankarhelanatten: (chaos)

[personal profile] bankarhelanatten 2023-11-28 08:08 pm (UTC)(link)
The young Swede offered a sleepy smile and pulled out a pack of donuts for Jake. Maybe vampires at donuts? Strawberry ones because the red was like blood? Torvald was still pretty drunk as he stepped into Jake's house.

What a fucking house it was! It was just like the set out of Count Dracula! Woah. Or the Adam's Family. Something creepy and gothic. Honestly, the Swede went a little wide-eyed and spun around.

"Nice place."
unholyterror: (Oh Fuck)

[personal profile] unholyterror 2023-11-28 08:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Despite the assumptions, jake did eat food and was fond of food too.

"Get comfortable." Jake shrugged and plopped down on the couch. He hadn't bothered to do much since he was going to head back to bed once he was social enough to not be rude.

"Just be quiet." Jake would kick his ass if he woke Niko up too.
bankarhelanatten: (flirty)

[personal profile] bankarhelanatten 2023-11-28 08:13 pm (UTC)(link)
"Thanks, kompis."

Torvald set the other bags down and pulled out a can of beer, opening the pull slowly, as to not wake Niko up. He might be drunk and loud but Torvald respected his band mate's sleep and Jake's warm welcome.

"Would you like something to drink? I've got booze and sodas in here."

The Swede speaking in a quiet tone as to not wake Niko.
unholyterror: (No way)

[personal profile] unholyterror 2023-11-28 08:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Jake watched but he's yawning too. He hasn't been to sleep yet, not really.

"I've got coffee." Jake smiled a little when the cats came out to check up on them, Renfield jumping up in Jake's lap.
bankarhelanatten: (Default)

[personal profile] bankarhelanatten 2023-11-28 08:19 pm (UTC)(link)
"Oh yeah, you have. Sorry, I'm drunk and tired."

Torvald was being truthful, having jumped off the plane around an hour ago and gone barrelling into the nearest food store. The boy was high energy just like Niko and this is why they dated two years ago.

"Aw, you have cats? They are cute and---they look like bats almost. Perfect for a---vampire person. Uh---are you a real one? Vampire that is."
unholyterror: (Roar)

[personal profile] unholyterror 2023-11-28 08:22 pm (UTC)(link)
This was one of the games Jake liked to tease people with. So when Torvald asked if he was a vampire he grinned to show off his fangs.

"This is Renfield. Mina is around but she's shy." The vampire question had him grinning even more. "Do you think I am?"
bankarhelanatten: (cheeky)

[personal profile] bankarhelanatten 2023-11-28 08:24 pm (UTC)(link)
Torvald squinted and noticed Jake had real fangs. Oh!

"You---are? I've never met a real vampire before."

The boy was trashed so wasn't thinking clearly. Niko loved this man so it couldn't be all bad, could it? The cats had the boy's attention as he went to stroke Renfield gently.

"I never knew Niko was into biting before."
unholyterror: (Woohoo)

[personal profile] unholyterror 2023-11-28 08:27 pm (UTC)(link)
Jake started to laugh when he realized this man thought he might be a real vampire. Renfield went to Torvald to get scratches.

"Oh he's into it." Jake shook his head. He's not drunk but exhausted which meant he wasn't thinking clearly. "He'll beg to get bit if I don't bite him enough."
bankarhelanatten: (hairspray FUCK YEAH!)

[personal profile] bankarhelanatten 2023-11-28 08:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Torvald had no clue if Jake was just fucking around with being a real vampire or not. Who knew? The thing was he didn't want to get bit. That was Niko's new thing apparently which caused the drummer to nearly choke on his beer.

"He--what? Fuck. This must be a new kink for him because he never asked me to bite him but then I'm not a vampire."

The guitarist obviously loved this man for who and---what he was.
unholyterror: (Jake)

[personal profile] unholyterror 2023-11-28 08:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Torvald instantly got a narrow eyed look from Jake. He's incredibly jealous in general and he didn't like hearing this guy, he didn't know, talking about biting his boyfriend.

"He never will either." Jake was trying to be civil but the jealousy is there in the sound of his voice. He's too tired to keep it hidden.
bankarhelanatten: (Default)

[personal profile] bankarhelanatten 2023-11-28 08:41 pm (UTC)(link)
"Don't worry, we dated around two years ago now and are just friends now. I won't be snatching your vampire bride off you anytime soon, Dracula."

Torvald offered a small smile and didn't really want to anger this guy, who seemed to be really fucking jealous all of a sudden. Possessive? Maybe. Niko really picked the men to sleep with, didn't he? The Swede finishing off his beer and yawning. Fuck, he was tired.

"He's got a vampire boyfriend now which is something."
unholyterror: (Calm red)

[personal profile] unholyterror 2023-11-28 08:44 pm (UTC)(link)
"no, you wouldn't." Jake wasn't much for fighting but his jealous could really get him on edge. Still the honesty is appreciated.

"One that would rather be in bed with him right now." Jake yawned too. He's exhausted and no amount of coffee will fix it.
bankarhelanatten: (Default)

[personal profile] bankarhelanatten 2023-11-28 08:46 pm (UTC)(link)
"Thanks for letting me over because I don't know anyone in LA. Niko is the only contact I have here."

Torvald shrugged and gave the American a smile anyway. It was nice to know Niko had someone so possessive and jealous because that meant he wouldn't just leave him after one fuck. That had happened many times when Niko had dated a few rock stars and wasters who had no time for him. That part hurt Torvald.

"Uh---yeah. Do you mind if I crash here on your couch? I'm really fucking tired."
unholyterror: (Shadow)

[personal profile] unholyterror 2023-11-28 08:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Jake got himself under control and realized it was probably normal for bandmates to date at some point. Still it was rough on him when he was this tired and unprepared for it.

"You might as well." Jake stood up and got Torvald the throw blanket off the other chair. There were plenty of pillows around. "The bathroom." He pointed to the door. It was only a half bath with a toilet and sink but it would be enough until tomorrow.

JAke was already heading toward his bedroom and wanting to sleep.
bankarhelanatten: (flirty)

[personal profile] bankarhelanatten 2023-11-28 08:54 pm (UTC)(link)
"Thanks."

Torvald knew he'd gotten this guy out of bed---uh his coffin so of course he was going to be fucking cranky. Still, he didn't send the Swede off or make him drive to the apartments at least. He took the throw and made a note where the bathroom was before getting comfy on the couch and going to sleep.

unholyterror: (In Flames)

[personal profile] unholyterror 2023-11-28 08:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Jake went in and closed the door. He's cranky about someone waking him up and someone he didn't know staying in his apartment but he'd deal with it in the morning. Right now he is too tired. He threw off his pants wherever in the bedroom before crawling into the coffin. Jake pulled the lid shut and curled up behind Niko with his arms around the Finn. He's too tired to stay awake long after he's laid down and will likely sleep into the afternoon at this rate.
hullu_kitaristi: (sleepy)

[personal profile] hullu_kitaristi 2023-11-28 09:00 pm (UTC)(link)
Niko was asleep and then felt the need to piss, opening his eyes to Jake snuggling close to him as always in the coffin. Not wanting to disturb him, Niko gently prized himself out of the American's arms and snuck out of the coffin quietly, heading to the bathroom. He hadn't even noticed a curled up body underneath a blanket on Jake's couch. Torvald completely underneath, sleeping soundly.

The Finn came back and got back into the coffin, closing the lid and kissing Jake's neck gently, noticing sunlight trying to peek through the black curtains from outside. What time was it anyway?

unholyterror: (Huddle)

[personal profile] unholyterror 2023-11-28 09:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Jake grumbled when Niko came back and started kissing on him. He wanted to sleep longer but also pulled Niko flush against his body. He couldn't careless about the time and had forgotten about the person on the couch.

"Are you going back to sleep?" Jake is groggy and still mostly asleep.
hullu_kitaristi: (yeah whatever)

[personal profile] hullu_kitaristi 2023-11-28 09:09 pm (UTC)(link)
"Yeah. I just got up and needed to piss."

Niko stroked through Jake's streaked hair and kissed the man's jaw. He was too tired to fuck so just snuggled into Jake's neck and sighed, closing his eyes once more. Who cared what time it was anyway.

Torvald turned over in his sleep and snorted. He had no idea that Niko had just walked past to take a piss in the bathroom.
unholyterror: (In Flames)

[personal profile] unholyterror 2023-11-28 09:13 pm (UTC)(link)
Jake groaned and pulled Niko in tighter. He threw a leg over Niko and pulled him in. He's too tired to do anything more than cuddle right now.
hullu_kitaristi: (sleepy)

[personal profile] hullu_kitaristi 2023-11-28 09:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Niko caressed his hands down to Jake's ass and left them there as he went back to sleep. He liked just sleeping inside the coffin with his boyfriend like this, now used to having the lid down, since before he was a little unsure.

***

Torvald shifted in his sleep once more and needed to use the bathroom, so got up and found his way to the toilet.
unholyterror: (Sassy)

[personal profile] unholyterror 2023-11-28 09:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Jake kept the lid closed when he was concerned or uncomfortable. It had been for the person out there in the other room but they were forgotten. It was later, after Torvald had gone to the bathroom, that Jake started to wake up. Those hands felt good on his ass and he leaned in kissing Niko behind the ear.

"You're hot, sweetheart." Jake whispered and then kissed Niko's lips.
hullu_kitaristi: (tiger robe)

[personal profile] hullu_kitaristi 2023-11-28 09:21 pm (UTC)(link)
"So are you."

Niko giggled and kissed Jake's lips while caressing the man's chest. His stomach gave a loud rumble which meant he should get up and get something to eat. When did he eat last? Jake was warm and the Finn didn't want to get up.

"I think I should eat something."
unholyterror: (Deep in thought)

[personal profile] unholyterror 2023-11-28 09:24 pm (UTC)(link)
Jake groaned as he woke up from all the touching.

"Can I eat you first?" Jake nipped Niko's neck. "I'll cook after."

Jake was a pretty decent cook but right now he wanted to get hot with his boyfriend.
hullu_kitaristi: (too fucking funny)

[personal profile] hullu_kitaristi 2023-11-28 09:27 pm (UTC)(link)
"You want to fuck me now?"

Niko groaned a little at the neck nip and then shifted so his leg slid over Jake's thigh, so that their cocks were touching. If Jake wanted to fuck the Finn then Niko wouldn't say no.

"Mmm, you smell nice."
unholyterror: (Washed out)

[personal profile] unholyterror 2023-11-28 09:30 pm (UTC)(link)
"I always want to." Jake started rubbing up against Niko.

"You feel nice." Jake purred the words as he kissed all over Niko's shoulders and upper chest. "How do you want it?"
hullu_kitaristi: (pleasure face)

[personal profile] hullu_kitaristi 2023-11-29 07:46 pm (UTC)(link)
"I want you on top of me."

Niko nipped at Jake's collarbone and groaned as he felt the older man kiss all over his shoulders and upper chest. There was something erotic as well as romantic making love inside of a coffin.

"Fuck me, big boy."

The Finn grinned and gave one of Jake's nipples a squeeze.
