(OOC note: For the purposes of time-revelant lines, this promo takes pace in mid-October. It was supposed to be on the October Amplitude, but Joe's schedule problems, while completely understandable, kind of throw this storyline out of whack. Again, no offense to Joe, and if it weren't for the next part of this, which'll be posted either later tonight or tommorrow, also have time-topical parts, I'd keep on trucking. Anyways without further ado, here's part one of what will be a long-term storyline)
::Gutter was in her locker room, punching a picture of Alicia Gordon when Carter walks in, looking for all the world like she won the lottery::
MJC: OMG! GUTTER! You're here!!
::Gutter wheels around::
Gutter: What the ("truck") are you talking about?
MJC: I got a call from the hotel I booked for you and majorly freaked when they said you never checked in! Something could have happened to you! Where have you been!?
Gutter: Rented out a storage locker.
MJC: You've been sleeping in a storage locker?! Wouldn't you rather have a nice, cozy, cuddly, warm bed... and HBO!
Gutter: Slept in worse places before.
MJC: Look, I understand where you're coming from, but the reason why I chose that hotel was because it had very good SECURITY and gosh, it's just not safe for ANYONE to be alone these days.
Gutter: So? I slept with a switchblade in my hand.
MJC: ... *sighs* I didn't want to be mean, but I'm not letting you stay there.
Gutter: ...And you're going to make me because...
MJC: I kinda have custody over you. Well... technically Orochi-O's does, but until you're 18, you're MY responsibility.
Gutter: ...Whatever. Is that all?
::MJC puts on her happy face again::
MJC: Um, did you have plans for Halloween?
Gutter: For what now?
::Carter takes a step back::
MJC: You know... Halloween.... with the kids dressing up as devils and superheroes and Sleepy Gooses.... (Notices Gutter just staring blankly) ... the last day of October....you mean to tell me you've NEVER been to a Halloween party or gone trick or treating before!? Oh this will NOT do, not one bit!
Gutter: Why? What's the big deal?
MJC: It's FUN! And FUN is FUN!
Gutter: Sounds stupid to me. Besides... last of October? Yeah, concert...
MJC: Oh? Who's playing? Anyone I know? The Sasquehanna Skippers? The Mint Julep Jalopies?
Gutter: Honey Roasted Flesh.
MJC: Yeepers! Sounds... erm... tasty. Well, hope you enjoy yourself...
Gutter: Whatever...
::Carter walks off, shaking her head::
