It's a bit of a fixer upper, but I do like it. It's got a certain charm to it, and you seem to be happy with it so yeah.

[And Morgan means it, already drawing up plans in their head with how they could improve and refurbished their best friends living space.

Especially the bathroom.]


A fresh coat of paint and some furniture and you'll do amazing here!
dead_tongue: (voila)

It's affordable. I forgot how expensive it is to have to pay for everything yourself, like internet and power and all that.

[He's practically bouncing, though.

He walks over to the side of the room furthest from the kitchen, hands spread wide.]


I can put the bed here! And set up my camera and lighting... I need to but storage for my sex toys.
morganjayfinnigan: (Happy2)

[personal profile] morganjayfinnigan 2024-06-02 11:14 pm (UTC)(link)
Gods don't remind me, my isp loves trying to take loads of my money whilst delivering an absolute shit connection.

[Morgan nods along seriously, thinking about what options would fit best. A big glass cabinet maybe?]

Oh we'll make it look real enticing. You want the toys on display or just a place to store them?
dead_tongue: (hmmm)

[personal profile] dead_tongue 2024-06-02 11:48 pm (UTC)(link)
Ugh, right? It's such bullshit.

[Iggy puts his hands on his hips.]

God, good question. I think... major storage should hide them, because god forbid I'm entertaining anybody. But one good display shelf so people can see some on stream. You know, like... a taste of 'oooh maybe that one!'
morganjayfinnigan: (Talking5)

[personal profile] morganjayfinnigan 2024-06-03 04:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Alright alright, we can work with that. I'm thinking cabinet here and shelf here and how about...

[Morgan goes on and describes their ideas for how they'd renovate the apartment. Fresh coats of paint, some new cabinets and appliances, mostly working with what's already there and basically just updating everything that needs it.]

So that leaves just the bathroom, which I personally want to torch, but maybe you have any ideas?
dead_tongue: (smiiiile)

[personal profile] dead_tongue 2024-06-04 02:41 am (UTC)(link)
[Iggy listens, looking both delighted and a little incredulous.]

What, you don't like the pink?

Morgan, I love you. I'm not re-tiling a rental. Besides! It's retro!
morganjayfinnigan: (Smiling1)

[personal profile] morganjayfinnigan 2024-06-04 07:39 am (UTC)(link)
Oh Iggy I love pink, but that pink makes me want to pour bleach on my eyes. Maybe I'll like it more after we deep clean it, maybe.

[They roll their eyes just a little, but chuckle all the same.]

Fine fine fine, I give up, the tiles stay, but you I'll do it in a flash if I can.

[personal profile] dead_tongue 2024-06-05 02:51 am (UTC)(link)
[Iggy laughs silently.]

Okay, cleaning we can do. I bought some stuff for that, even.

[He looks at them very seriously then.]

I do have one more huge favour to ask: can you spend the night? Just the first night. I need to make sure it's not, you know.

Haunted.
morganjayfinnigan: (Smug1)

[personal profile] morganjayfinnigan 2024-06-05 11:18 am (UTC)(link)
Pfff, sure why not, what's u...

Haunted.

[Morgan grows more serious.]

Yeah alright. I can do that. Wanna get some wine too?
dead_tongue: (hug)

[personal profile] dead_tongue 2024-06-06 03:56 am (UTC)(link)
[Iggy grins and hugs Morgan tight.]

Yes! Of course!

And thank you. It should be fine - I googled the address to look for deaths? But you never know.
morganjayfinnigan: (Talking5)

[personal profile] morganjayfinnigan 2024-06-06 07:24 pm (UTC)(link)
[Morgan returns the hug and gives Iggy a good squeeze.]

Wonderful, red or white? We also obviously gotta get takeout.

Hey no worries, we'll make it your moving in party! And let's maybe get a bunch of salt, just in case.
dead_tongue: (voila)

[personal profile] dead_tongue 2024-06-07 06:16 am (UTC)(link)
Uhm... white? We can get Thai with it maybe.

[He claps his hands together.]

Yay! You can sleep on the mattress, obviously.

Salt? Oh! Oh for like, evil?
morganjayfinnigan: (Happy4)

[personal profile] morganjayfinnigan 2024-06-07 07:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Oooooh, yes please. Would do very nicely.

[Morgan chuckles.]

That's sweet Iggy, but you take the mattress, you're quite a bit more delicate than me. I can rough it out on the floor as long as I get a blanket.

Yeah! Figured it could be useful.
dead_tongue: (voila)

[personal profile] dead_tongue 2024-06-08 12:48 am (UTC)(link)
Yay! Sleepover!

That is true, I'm very delicate... we can share, too. I don't mind.
morganjayfinnigan: (Talking5)

[personal profile] morganjayfinnigan 2024-06-08 12:04 pm (UTC)(link)
You know, fair enough we could, but I'm a bit of an uneasy sleeper, move about a lot so I doubt you'd get a lot of sleep. Also, warning you now, I speak in my sleep, people have had whole conversations with me while I was fully asleep.
dead_tongue: (bruh)

[personal profile] dead_tongue 2024-06-10 02:40 am (UTC)(link)
Whoa. Really?

...does anyone answer back? [Iggy...]
morganjayfinnigan: (Talking4)

[personal profile] morganjayfinnigan 2024-06-10 10:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh yeah, I've apparently monologued a couple times.

I mean, I like, have held actual conversations with the people I've been sleeping the same room as.
dead_tongue: (bruh)

[personal profile] dead_tongue 2024-06-11 05:57 am (UTC)(link)
That is so creepy! [Says the guy who talks to ghosts.]

I guess you don't remember any of it?
morganjayfinnigan: (Happy4)

[personal profile] morganjayfinnigan 2024-06-14 06:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh yeah no, nothing. But apparently I really drone on about structural security.
dead_tongue: (bruh)

[personal profile] dead_tongue 2024-06-15 04:02 am (UTC)(link)
Morgan.

I don't even know what that is.
morganjayfinnigan: (Happy1)

[personal profile] morganjayfinnigan 2024-06-16 11:17 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh that one's actually pretty simple. It's just about how to make buildings not collapse.

So columns, support beams and load sharing, stuff like that.
dead_tongue: (u don't say)

[personal profile] dead_tongue 2024-06-17 12:18 am (UTC)(link)
Ohhhhhhhhhhhh.

God. You're so smart.
morganjayfinnigan: (Happy4)

[personal profile] morganjayfinnigan 2024-06-23 11:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Why thank you. [Morgan beams a smile Iggy's way.] But that is sadly just a part of what I have to know for my job. Nothing smart about it, just lots and lots of math. [The smile fades and is replaced with a thousand meter stare.

They shudder and focus back in on Iggy.]


Hey, as long as I don't burst out into Shakespeare. That's also happened.

dead_tongue: (bruh)

[personal profile] dead_tongue 2024-06-25 02:48 am (UTC)(link)
Uh, hello?! Math is THE smartest!

[Oh. Okay, maybe everyone hates math.]

Okay, but what play? That matters.
morganjayfinnigan: (Excuse Me5)

[personal profile] morganjayfinnigan 2024-06-25 09:29 am (UTC)(link)
Maybe so, but oh boy do I feel dumb when I do it. I have so many cheat sheets and formulas pre-written down with the explanation for when and where I use them. I'm good at the people part and the negotiation part, but the math is part of it too.

[Morgan has to think for a moment.]

It's a couple, Macbeth, Hamlet, Julius Caesar and A Midsummer Nights Dream.
