Dear Challa's,
Until July 10th, we're doing something special and sharing some of our favorite Story Lines of the year that previously didn't make it onto the blog.
In this one, Rhage has been ordered by Tohrment to take over Fritz's duties due to him recuperating in the Infirmary.

Rhage Ghardian
Arriving in the foyer at the appointed time, I see a doggen
looking uncomfortable, shuffling his feet *clearing my throat* Is Fritz here?
*seeing the relief in his eyes, he walks over to me and hands me a note,
"From Master Fritz, sire" Looking at the note
~Rhage, you are to be 'Fritz for the Day' You need to do
some of my jobs for me. The Mansion needs to run smoothly. You need to start by
doing the dishes. You will find the continued list in the kitchen.
Fritz~
What the Fuck?? *Walking into the kitchen, I see a pile of
dishes and a huge mess* Why me? *looking around for any help and seeing none, I
roll up my sleeves and turn the water on*
Rhage Ghardian
*Staring at the sink piled with dishes* Jesus
Christmas, what the hell have the doggen been doing since Fritz was gone?
*Looking around for some doggen, any doggen that I can pawn this off on, and
conveniently not finding one* Where is a doggen when you need one, kinda like
Cop, prolly eating donuts somewhere, slacking off.
Rhage Ghardian
I can't believe I am doing this! *pours soap
in the sponge and picks up a dish* I mean really, in today's day and age, I am
washing dishes. *places the dish in the drainer without rinsing it* I my hands
are already getting wrinkly, *sighing* Maybe this is what caused Fritz to get
all old looking, true? *cleaning the next bowl and sticking it in the dish
drainer. Starts to sing to myself.* I'm gonna wash that man right outta my
hair, gonna wash that man right outta my hair, and send him on his way!
Rhage Ghardian
*Looking over my shoulder, then leaning
forward looking left and then right* Fuck this shit!! *opening up the garbage,
I look around again and start to put the dishes in the garbage* Ahhhhh, and
they think I am soooo stupid!! *rolls my eyes* They have no clue how my smart
being lazy can make me *busts out laughing*
Autumn Ghardian
*Needing a glass of water I head into the
kitchen. As I open the door I stop in my tracks. Rhage is shoving a pot into
the trashcan, where I can see another handle sticking out. The water is still
running, soapy dishes are sitting in the drain rack.* Uh, hello Rhage. You are
aware the dishes can be reused? The dishwasher makes the cleaning even easier.
*I get a glass from the cabinet and head to the fridge.* Maybe you need more
than a couple of days rest? *Seeing the expression on your face as you eye the
dishwasher has me concerned.*
Rhage Ghardian
Are you telling me that *eyeing the
dishwasher, then Autumn* That I didnt have to hand wash this shit *holds up a
soapy hand and points to the dishes* Ahh, do I have to take them out of the
garbage? *hearing you laugh as you finish your drink and drop the glass in the
sink and sashay out of the kitchen, I call out* Et tu Autumn? *opens up the
dishwasher and pulls out a tray and sees a slip of paper "The things you
need Rhage to do"* Well fuck me! There is more!! *loads the dishwasher with
what is left in the sink, takes the garbage out, then sits and reads the list
that is left me.*~
Marissa O'Neal Ghardian
*Opening up the Dishwasher to stick a coffee mug in, I see a
paper with a list on it. Taking it out, I start to laugh.* Rhage would never
see this in here, he never opens up the dishwasher *takes a pen out of my
purse, I place my wish on there and stick it back in the dishwasher* You have
got to wonder what the others will add to it?

he always wants to see me in the nude *shaking my head* Scrubbing tiles with a
toothbrush? I know that handwriting anywhere... Cop I will use your toothbrush,
how is that shit, Ummm?~
Rhage Ghardian
*Dragging the bucket and the mop into the hallway,I look
around* Oh thank the Scribe Virgin no one is around *dunking the mop in the
soapy water and placing it on the floor, I start to move the mop around the
floor. Adjusting the earbuds in my ears I move to the beat as I dunk and mop...
dunk dunk and mop... dunk*
Rhage Ghardian
♫♩♬Cross my heart and hope todie ♫♩♬ *Pushes the mop across the floor and pulls itback to me... two steps around it and then pushes it away* ♫♩♬Onlystay with you One more night ♫♩♬ *pulls it back and dunks to
the beat and mops the floor again*
Rhage Ghardian
*Moving to the next spot, I start to dunk and
mop again when the next song come on: *What the
FUCK?? *looks at the song* When the hell did Mary program this? *dunk dunk...
starts to mop and involuntarily moving my hips back and forth. Catching myself
I stop and mops the floor. Dunking the mop, I start to move in a circle around
the bucket with my other hand in the air and pumping it in the air*
Rhage Ghardian
*Holding the mop in the bucket I start to
stomp around it... head thrown back as the the next song starts* ♫♩♬ Usher... Usher... (yeah man)So we back in the club. Get that bodies rocking from side to side (side to side)♫♩♬ *Moves the mop from hand to hand and pulls it outof the bucket and onto the floor* ♫♩♬Hands up, and suddenly we allgot our hands up ♫♩♬ *reaches with my hands up inthe air, the mop teeters back and forth, I grab it and then reach my hands upagain* ♫♩♬ No control of my body ♫♩♬*points to the mop and sings* ♩♬♪ Ain't I seen you before? Ithink I remember those eyes, *pointing at the mop with each word* eyes, eyes,eyes ♩♬♪ *Holds mop away from me on an angle and walksaround it* ♩♬♪ 'Cause baby tonight, the DJ got us falling inlove again Yeah, baby tonight, the DJ got us falling in love again So dance,dance, like it's the last, last night of your life, life ♩♬♪
Rhage Ghardian
*When the next song starts, I just stand
still then start to chuckle and shake my head*
♩♬♪I never really knew that she could dance like this. She makes a man wants tospeak Spanish. Como se llama (si), bonita (si), mi casa (si, Shakira Shakira),su casa. Shakira, Shakira ♩♬♪ *Standing with my feettogether, heels flat. I lift my right heel as high as I can and push my righthip up as high as it will go. With my heel still lifted and my hip lifted, Ipush my right hip out to the side. Now I lower my heel and lower my hip DOWN.Then I lift my left heel and do the same thing on the left side. UP, OUT, DOWN...* ♩♬♪ And I'm on tonight, You know my hips don't lie.And I am starting to feel you boy. Come on lets go, real slow. Don't you seebaby asi es perfecto ♩♬♪... *mopping myself into the
corner, I stand there and look out at the expanse of the foyer, at the shiny
wet floor. All of a sudden I hear the pitter patter of claws.* Noo... NOOOO!!
STOP! George STOP!! *Watching with disgust as George walks across the floor
with muddy paws* Mother Fucker!! *starts to mop again humming* Hips don't lie~
Rhage Ghardian
*Walking into The Pit, I see Butch sitting on the couch
flipping thru the channels* Oh thank the SV that you are here. You are way to
busy watching TV for me to clean true? *grabs a tumbler out of the cabinet and
waves it at Cop* Chew wan? *Laughing at the look you give me then the flash of
the Tumbler in your hand, I pour my own and walk over with the bottle of Lag
and freshen yours up* I am not doing any fucking dishes either *shows you my
hands* Look they are all wrinkled and *points* Blistered too!! *leans back and
takes a sip the downs it*
Butch O'Neal Ghardian
*Looking at him and then smiling as he
plops down beside me* What did you do to get you put on washing up duty
*Watching you shrug your shoulders at me nonchalantly, I laugh* Damn, I cannot
believe you did something that bad that warrants washing everything up by hand,
did you not think to cheat and use the dishwasher? *Seeing you glare at me, I
burst out laughing* Oh my lord, please do not tell me you didn't know we had a
dishwasher.
Rhage Ghardian
*making a face, then turning back to the TV*
I forgot *topping off my glass* and I did nothing beside be taken off patrol
*mimics Tohrment* My head isn't in it with me and Mary fighting *takes another
sip and points to the TV* Leave this on... Giants are on playing the 49'ers...
GO GIANTS!! *toasts Butch, laughing and leans back letting out a breath* So I
got Fritz duty!
Butch O'Neal Ghardian
*Shaking my head and then laughing*
You are something else at times my man, you know that right? *Hearing him snort
at me, I look at the TV* So how are things with you two now? Managed to get
things sorted out yet .... *Stopping to look at him* Fritz duty? What the hell
does that mean? *Seeing him shrug his shoulders and then look at his hands, I
try to hide the smile and look at the TV again* Well I am sure you deserve it
*Hearing him pffft at me, I laugh* Oh come on, where is your family spirit
*Lifting my hands in the air, I start a cheer* We have spirit, yes we do, we
have spirit, how about you *Hearing him choke on his drink, I bust out
laughing* What, don't you think I would make a good cheer leader?
Rhage Ghardian
*Grabs the bar towel and tosses it at you*
Here, use this for a pom pom! Fucker! *shaking my head, looking back at the TV
and seeing the 49'er score* Manning, get your head out of your ass!! *taking a
sip* and Mary and I are doing just fine *downing the rest of the drink, and
barely tasting it* Thank you very much! *eyeing you and making a face* And how
are you and Marissa? *rolling my eyes when you get all dreamy looking and turn
to the TV while pouring another drink and you eye me* Wha!!? I am thirsty!!
Being Fritz is thirsty work... the shit I washed off of the floor in the
foyer... *shakes my head then giving your floor the evil eye* I am not cleaning
in here, did I say that to you already?
Butch O'Neal Ghardian
Well you can drink all you want my
man, as long as it's V's Goose and not my damn Lag *Grabbing the bottle from
him* I am glad you two are doing okay after your little spat, and as for
Marissa and me, we are doing very well, thanks for asking *Filling my glass
back up and knocking back the glass* Hey, I think I might join you here and
besides if Rissa finds me a bit worse for wear, I can say it is your fault
*Barking out a laugh as he rolls his eyes at me again* You know what my man,
you keep that eye rolling up, I will start to wonder about you *Suddenly
feeling his elbow in my rib cage, I nearly spit my drink out my mouth* For
fucks sake Rhage, talk about a waste of perfectly good drink, you are an asshat
at times *Nudging him back just as hard*
Rhage Ghardian
Fuckwad! *trying to grab for the bottle as you pull away* You know, I will just get another bottle. Its not like you
can't afford it! *laughing at the look on your face* Fucker! Hand it over *Puts
my cup in your face and rattles the ice* I know you love me and would never let
a brother go thirsty *shake shake shake and in a sing song voice* and I will
let you pour one for yourself too... *laughing harder when you bat at my hand
and the ice topples over the tumbler* I am not cleaning that up, by the way...
Butch O'Neal Ghardian
Neither am I *Laughing at you and then
filling my glass up, knocking it back and hearing you growl at me, I raise an
eyebrow at you* Well if you want it that bad but damn, I do not need you to
make a pass at me, I know I am sexy and all that but you are so not my type
*Seeing you grab a piece of ice and throw it at me, quickly ducking out the
way* Hey, it is not me that needs the ice to cool down, I didn't realize I got
you so hot under the collar *Filling up my glass again and then hearing you
shake the glass again, I give you the bottle and shake my head*
Rhage Ghardian
*Grabbing the bottle, I start to pour and I
hear a loud girl scream* Fucking A *handing you the bottle back and smirking at
your lifted eyebrow* Tohrment's ring *We both bust out laughing, letting it go
into voice mail* I have a ring for each of you... *when your brow goes so high
I can barely see it, I sigh* Wrathh is Three Blind Mice...I know obvious...
Vishous is Love Hurts... *grins* yours is Bad boys.... *laughs when you toss
the pillow at me* Phury's is Can you Smell that Smell? and Zszadist is the
Alphabet Song... *Presses Play on the message that T left: "Get your
fucking ass over to my office, You have some filing to do" Looks at Cop* I
guess I better get going! *salutes with the glass and drinks the rest* Got to
go!! Thanks for the drink, I owe ya.
Butch O'Neal Ghardian
Anytime my man, you know that right?
*Seeing him nod at me and start to walk towards the door, muttering something
under his breath at me, pretending I didn't make out what he says, I smile to
myself* Have fun with your filing, won't ya bro *Seeing him flip me off over
his shoulder, I bark out a laugh* Yeah, fucking love you too, asshat *Hearing
him tell me to go fuck myself as he walks out the door, I start to laugh.
Grabbing the bottle again and filling up my glass, I sit back down and start
channel surfing again* ~
Rhage Ghardian
*Walks into Tohrment's office and sees all these files on
the floor that need filing* Well fuck me!! What do I look like a fucking
dictionary? *picking one up, I walk over to the cabinet, I open up a draw and
look at the file again* A.B.C.D.E.F.G... ok here it goes... *picks up another
one* A.B.C... there *grabs the next one and looks at it* Ummmm... Lessers...
*rifles through the cabinet and opens a draw up* F or A... *taps my chin then
nods * F for fucking assholes *places it in the F drawer, then looks up at
someone walking into the room* Really?? Filing?
Tohrment Ghardian
*I walk back into my office after sending
Rhage a voice mail and see he's already here. I watch for a sec as the asshat
throws a lesser folder into the F file before I cough from the doorway.* Uh,
hey man, Lesser is spelled with an L, not an F. *You look up and flip me off,
which makes me laugh. I cross over to my chair and throw my feet up on my
desk.* Want me to sing the ABC song for you?
Rhage Ghardian
*Rolls my eyes at him and say drolly* No, it
will only mess me up! *picking up a file that says Annalise Scribe Ghardian*
A.B.C.D.E.F.G.H... *sticks in in H and looks upi to see you watching me* Hot
Mamma! it works for me *shrugging and grabbing the next file* Tell me the truth
Bro. You just took these out of the cabinet and put them on the floor for me to
do something, true?
Tohrment Ghardian
*Laughing, I pull open one of the drawers
on my desk.* I wish, bro. I got a little behind while I was gone. *I reach
inside the drawer and pull out a couple of shot glasses and push aside some
folders. Then I reach under the desk and bring out one of Jack.* And while I
could use the help, you're just gonna fuck it all to hell, so you might as well
put the shit aside. I can wait for Fritz. *I pour shots in both glasses and
hand one to you.* Actually, I figured you could use a break. You've worked your
ass off today.
Rhage Ghardian
*Pretending to pout, I show my fingers* I
have worked them to the bone, especially the Pit, they are Pigs there. *smiling
as I take the glass and tipping it for a salute* Sláinte *at your raised
eyebrow* OK I was with Cop for some of the afternoon, the fucking bastard rubs
off on me, *drinking it back and starts to choke* Smmmmoooothhh... *laughing*
Sooo what are your plans on getting the Bastards back for Fritz? they so need
to be taught a lesson
Tohrment Ghardian
*I slam my own shot back and pour
another.* If it were up to me, I'd probably go guns blazing into the fuckers'
hidey hole and blow them to the Scribe Virgin. *I clink my shot glass against
yours and we down more.* But it's not up to me. Wrathh thinks we need to lay
low. Maybe he's right. *More shots* Damnnnnn, good stuff right there. *I close
my eyes, enjoying the burn of good liquor.* So, bro...nothing personal about
taking you out of rotation for a few days, true? But you gotta work shit out
with Mary. Take it from me, if your head's not right, you're fucked.
Rhage Ghardian
*Shaking my head and sighs* I know, Mary and
I need to get it all out... *looks at Tohr* I yelled at her T... I have no clue
why anymore, it doesn't matter, really. *Tossing the drink back and puts the
glass out for another* How did you get Autumn to take your fat old ass back?
*laughs and starts to sip at the JD* Not that I am going to use the same
tactics... You were an ass to Autumn! *nods my head at the surprised look on
your face* You were, just ask anyone, they will agree with me
Tohrment Ghardian
*Another shot. I sigh loudly and pour us
both one more. I'm feeling pretty mellow about now.* I don't need to ask
anyone. I was a Grade A, top of the line asshole. And what's worse, I didn't
care...or I convinced myself I didn't care. *I raise an eyebrow at him.* Sound
like anyone I know? *He flips me off again and relaxes against my filing
cabinet.* I had to make sure Autumn knew I was sorry, bro. It wasn't easy but
it was worth it. Don't know how I would make it without her. *I take my feet
off my desk and lean forward, running a hand through my hair.* Apologize, man.
And mean it. You feel me?
Rhage Ghardian
*Downs the shot and places the glass on the
floor, letting both hands run through my hair, I look up at you like a wild man
from Borneo, with hair sticking up and a wild look in my eyes* OK let me sober
up, between here and the Pit, I am trashed and smell like a brewery and Mr
Clean *hearing you laugh, I shake my head and chuckle* You fucker! When did you
get to be so smart? *Looking at you closely and checking behind your ears* Were
you replaced by V and I didn't know it? *Laughing as you bat my hands away and
I stand up* OK Boss, I am going to grovel... after coffee and a shower... does
that work?
Tohrment Ghardian
*I laugh again, feeling a bit like a wild
man myself. Damn, that JD is fine, fine shit.* That works, my man. *I reach out
my hand.* I think I need some help getting my ass out of this chair, bro. *You
laugh and help me up, then clap me on the back. I throw an arm around your
shoulder to steady myself for a minute.* Looks like you're not the only fucker
who needs to sober up a bit. Maybe I'm not as smart as you think I am. Just
point me in Autumn's general direction, will ya? *I walk to the doorway, and
then stop and look back at you.* And for God's sake, leave my files the fuck
alone. I want to actually be able to find my shit later, true? *And I walk off
to look for Autumn as I hear you still laughing behind me.* ~
XOXO!
