[Anyone paying attention is treated to a good thirty seconds of humming -- "Jingle Bell Rock" at first but then "Do They Know It's Christmas" -- but it stops abruptly when he actually finds his train of thought.]
..Is there a word for when you get a song stuck in your head, but every time you get to one part it turns into something else? And it keeps looping because you can't remember any more of it?
There's probably one in German. They're always good for that.
But seriously. I'm getting sick of it; it ends up on that one about whether or not people know it's Christmas and it's just fucking depressing.
[He looks guilty for all of ten seconds -- he's probably not supposed to be cursing, at least not out loud because it's impolite, but whatever.]
[A/N: AU!Richie is the adoptive son of William von Graham and Hannibal. He's a little misguided, and has a tendency towards Bad Life Choices, cursing like a sailor, submitting to peer pressure entirely too easily, and impulsive decisionmaking, but he's generally not a bad kid.
Although you might not want to leave him in charge of your pets, plants, or small children; he tends to be unintentionally neglectful of them.]

Dunno, I was kinda just asking, I don't really know anything people don't know.
[At least, not anything he actually knows the name of; who knows the stuff that gets played at home.]

Where? ...It was some really fucking shady place, wasn't it. The kind of place people get stabbed in. 'Cause that's the only place I know of where you could get away with that shit.
[...Although Damian would kind of be his hero if it wasn't.]

Date: 2011-12-18 08:43 pm (UTC)...he laughed, by the way.
Yes, we're having a good conversation, and you're a decent and interesting guy. But I don't want to cause you strife. You got a good thing going. I'm on him about being stuffy but those two still have their hearts in the right place.

Date: 2011-12-19 01:42 pm (UTC)Oh man. That's...that's great.
[So much protesting; for a minute there he looks like a kicked puppy.]
But there won't be strife! It'll be fine. I mean, they'll lecture and everything, but. They do that; it'll be okay. Really.
[A sigh after a minute or so, and all the disappointed faces.]
...But alright, I guess.
