Joocie groaned sickly as he laid on Laff's couch, a thin blanket draped over him as a cold rag was placed on his forehead. He shuddered with a chill down his spine, whining quietly as Oompa was sitting in the armchair with an ice pack for his burn.
Coming from the kitchen, Laff walked over with a tray in his hands carrying two hot bowls of soup. He set the tray down on the coffee table and walked over to Joocie, kneeling beside him, and took off the rag as he smoothed back his frazzled hair. "Joocie.." He spoke softly as Joocie groaned quietly in response "do you feel well enough to eat something?"
Joocie moaned silently and shook his head "n-n-no..." Laff nodded softly and put the rag back on his head "alright mate, you just relax.." He stood up and picked up one of the bowls with a cloth, handing it to Oompa "Here mate.."
Oompa nodded and took the soup "Thank you..." He managed to take a small sip before Laff thumped him over the head. "That's for bringing Joocie to a bar you idiotic bastard." Oompa let out a soft hiss and nodded "I-I deserved that..." He took another sip of the soup as Laff took the ice pack away, putting it off to the side. A buzzing noise was heard as Laff looked towards the source of the noise, walking over to Joocie's discarded jacket. Laff pulled out Joocie's phone and opened it up to the lock screen. His eyes widened at the sight.
Joocie was getting texts from an unknown number.
Laff couldn't believe this; did Joocie...have a hook up-? No, no Joocie wouldn't do that. He liked Tbh too much to do such a horrible act as sleep with another man. But this is a problem, if Tbh standing Joocie up was a misunderstanding this would cause some problems. "Better put a stop to this.." Laff muttered quietly as he unlocked Joocie's phone, texting back.

"Hey um, I'm sorry...I've had a lot to drink last night and I don't remember anything that happened. So I'm sorry to have gotten your hopes up for anything, but I do have a boyfriend who (besides his many, many flaws) I love deeply and I wouldn't want to be with anyone else. And if anything did happen during my drunken state, it means very little to me in the slightest." [Sent: 9:34 am]
Laff sighed a bit, relieved he took care of it, and went to put Joocie's phone back when the mysterious stranger texted back. Something Laff wasn't expecting this man to do in any universe.
Laff blinked a bit, confused. -Joocie can sing...?- He looked over at Joocie who was curled up on his side, shaking softly. Never in all of Laff's time did he ever hear Joocie sing anything, ever..! Then again, there was probably a lot Joocie could do but never got a chance to since he was busy with videos, his personal life, and his relationship with Tbh...Honest couldn't have known about this, right..? He shook his head and texted the man back.
-JoocieJuice-
"Really..? I've never sung in front of my friends before..." [Sent: 9:42 am].
So Tbh DID know! But, why not sing in front of everyone else? Laff knows no one would tease him for it if he sounded terrible, but they would throw a couple of lighthearted jokes around and that's all the jokes would be; just jokes. As if his question was answered, the man texted him again.
That made Laff's blood boil, so Tbh was putting Joocie down..! It was so surreal, it correlates perfectly with how Meme said Tbh had treated him when they were dating. This simultaneously made Laff furious at Tbh and worried about Joocie, he was really caught in a cycle of never-ending domestic abuse and Laff wasn't sure whether or not Joocie knew he was in a cycle.

Laff looked at the message dumbfounded. He wanted Joocie to come to his party even if he wouldn't even remember who this guy is? And not only that, he was really considerate about how he felt if he chose to go; offering the idea of Joocie bringing him and everyone else along if he wanted to. Laff was about to text back as the door suddenly flew open.
Tbh quickly ran in, looking worried "Joocie-!?" He looked at the couch and ran over, kneeling beside him "Joocie! Babe, I'm so sorry-!" Joocie whined softly and covered his ears, shaking "t-too loud..."
Oompa cleared his throat, making Tbh look at him as he set the empty soup bowl down "Excuse me, uh, where the FUCK were you last night!? Joocie said you fucking stood him up and didn't even say why! He was fucking hysterical last night too, you really fucked up a perfect night by not showing up you bastard." Tbh looked at him with a guilty expression on his face "I fell ill and was passed out most of the night! I didn't wake up until 4 am!"
Joocie groaned quietly "still loud..." Tbh looked at him and held Joocie's upper body in his arms as Oompa scratched his head "Yeah we may have gone out to drink his sorrows away last night without intending to."
Tbh held Joocie close "Oh my poor honey-!" He kissed Joocie's head a few times with every slight movement making Joocie feel even sicker. "Mnn-s-stop moving me..." Tbh froze and gently laid Joocie back down again, holding his hand "Sorry Sorry! But I'm right here, I'm not going anywhere baby." He frowned "I'm really sorry I didn't show up last night...can you forgive me?"
Joocie mumbled incoherently, clearly in no position to answer or comprehend what Tbh is saying with how sick he's feeling.
Laff stared at Tbh with a searching expression, his instinct told him. The same instinct that made him the best damn detective.... He was lying to Joocie's face and Joocie can't even comprehend his lies. Glancing down at Joocie's phone in his hands, he saw the same message the stranger had sent to 'Joocie' moments before Tbh came into the room, struggling now with what to do.
...He was surely going to have to pay for this...He texted the man back.
-JoocieJuice-
"Is 4 pm okay? And yes I would like to bring my friends along." [Sent: 9:58 am].
So the man had a name...Charlie.
-JoocieJuice-
"My name is Joocie mate so you don't have to call me Mr.Yellow-head at the party." [Sent: 10:00 am].
Quickly placing Joocie's phone back into his jacket without anyone watching, he stood there silently as he watched Tbh kneel at Joocie's side, Joocie looking as pale as a ghost if the ghost was sick itself, and Oompa has decided to eat Joocie's soup since Joocie was too sick to eat. He took in a small breath and sighed, glancing down.
-I hope that was the right call...cause if not I'm going to hell for my sins...-

Two And A Half Deadmen
Silver-Spruce is a very strange and very haunted town. Ghosts inhabit its buildings and walk its streets. Some of them friendly and sane. Some of them not so much. Alder helps ghosts. Helps them fulfill their last requests so they can move on to whatever comes next. Sometimes the ghosts aren't so friendly and have to be moved on by force. Alder does that as well. And he's gotten rather good at it too. After a particularly rough exorcism, he finds himself following a strange ghost to a local tourist attraction. And while Alder never means to find himself caught up in chaos, monsters, magic, and mayhem always seem to have a way of finding him. You want more specifics for what you're reading? Here you go: This is Urban-fantasy but a little bit of a different spin. Often the protagonists in such stories tend to be the bigger fish in their world, or at least far from small fry. Be they legendary boogie men or badass wizards (which is in no way a bad thing, I love a lot of those stories.) But I thought it would be fun to have a protagonist who's far closer to the bottom end of the scale. He has some magic, and it's potent in its own way. But he isn't the big dog or a fighting machine. Outside of his bubble of influence, our protagonist is essentially a normal human as far as powers are concerned. And while you should be warned that this story will get dark in some places it's (hopefully) balanced out by humor and the lighter stuff. I'm not sure how to end this synopsis section so I'll just say bye. Bye!
