This all started with me tracking down this picture for
watcher_shadow. Because I've ranted at her about A-Rod (among other things) to the point where she finally required a visual. My bad. She is so patient with me. =D
catslash: That's A-Rod *and* Jeter. =D Now you have visuals.
watcher_shadow: A-Rod's lips are PINK. And the picture to the right of the poster? So slashy looking.
catslash: Hmm. The pink is a much better look for him than the purple. The purple clashes with his skin tone.
watcher_shadow: Yes. I can say that without even seeing the purple.
catslash: Good, because the purple is impossible to describe. I suppose we could pretend he was sucking on grape lollipops, but the color was - just too uniform.
watcher_shadow: Some people ar elike that with lollipops, though.
catslash: True. But - it's just too *nice*.
watcher_shadow: I'd say mabye it was a dare but if he does it more than once...
watcher_shadow: Maybe he thinks it brings him good luck XD;
catslash: *giggles* Not any more, I bet.
Then, later:
catslash: *finally finds a decent picture of A-Rod* And no one in the world can convince me that *that* is from a lollipop.
watcher_shadow: ...no. It is not.
watcher_shadow: That is just... no.
catslash: . . . yeah.
watcher_shadow: The best thing ever would be if an announcer started commenting on it.
watcher_shadow: "And A-rod has a lovely shade of purple today, wouldn't you say?"
catslash: Well, McCarver already spends too much time on Jeter's eyes, that wouldn't be too much of a stretch.
watcher_shadow: Oh lord.
watcher_shadow: Like with what?
catslash: One of my favorite sentences: "Jeter has two of the calmest eyes I've ever seen." As opposed to, like, three? Or twelve? And he never misses a chance to comment on some damn thing Jeter's done. SO IN LOVE.
watcher_shadow: Makes me sad they don't have a game on V-day.
watcher_shadow: "So, McCarver, who are you writing a valentine to this day?"
watcher_shadow: McCarver: *nervous like a giddy schoolgirl!*
catslash: Jeter: *off doing his thing, which presumably involves chewing his gum full of crack*
watcher_shadow: McCarver: *sneaks into the locker room, leaves the card, and bounces off*
Card:
"DO YOU LIKE ME?
CHECK :
YES NO "
catslash: Jeter: *finds card* *blinks* *spits his gum into it* *for sadly, the card lacks a name. Poor nervous McCarver*
catslash: Jeter: *forms conclusions* *eyes A-Rod uneasily for next several months*
watcher_shadow: McCarver: *develops a hatred for A-rod, bashes him out at any chance he gets*
catslash: A-Rod: *wtf*
watcher_shadow: McCarver: I have never seen eyes as nervous as A-rod's. They're sort of like a buggy fly. That's ugly. And undeserving of Jeter's attention.
catslash: Other announcers: . . .
catslash: Jeter: *wtf*
watcher_shadow: McCarver: ...I CAN'T STAND IT ANYMORE! I MUST CONFESS! JETER, MARRY ME AND I WILL HAVE YOUR BABIES!
catslash: Jeter: . . . *hides*
catslash: A-Rod: *fixes lipstick* I don't think so, Tim.
watcher_shadow: McCarver: You want a piece of this, A-rod?
catslash: A-Rod: *makes a face* No. And neither does Derek. Which brings me to my point: GO AWAY.
watcher_shadow: McCarver: Shut up, Princess.
catslash: A-Rod: *gasp*
Jeter: *gasp*
Rest of the Yankees: *gasp*
watcher_shadow: McCarver: *smirks*
catslash: Joe Torre: Shit . . .
catslash: A-Rod: *squeals* BITCH! *leaps upon McCarver, making with the hair-pulling and scratching*
watcher_shadow: McCarver: ...you fight like a GIRL. *punches*
catslash: A-Rod: *is down for the count*
catslash: Jeter: *rolls eyes*
watcher_shadow: McCarver: So, have I won you?
catslash: Jeter: Well . . . I mean, technically, Steinbrenner owns my soul and all . . . but that *was* hella manly . . . *ponders*
watcher_shadow: McCarver: I can be even more manly! *strikes a pose*
catslash: Jeter: *melts*
watcher_shadow: McCarver: *wins?*
catslash: McCarver: *WINS* *for now* *Derek is fickle, you know*
watcher_shadow: A-rod: *kicks McCarver's ass next week, attempts to woo Jeter for revenge*
catslash: Jeter: *is wooed*
watcher_shadow: A-rod: *anime style victory sign!*
watcher_shadow: And... dude, did we just rp Baseball RPS? XD
Then, later:
Card:
"DO YOU LIKE ME?
CHECK :
YES NO "
Jeter: *gasp*
Rest of the Yankees: *gasp*
