I'll write more then just one

Amelio: There is no future. There is no past. Do you see? Time is simultaneous, an intricately structured jewel that humans insist on viewing one edge at a time, when the whole design is visible in every facet.

Koda: ...

Allie: ...

Shadow: ...

Everyone else at Amelio's birthday party: ...

Shadow: Jeez all I asked was if you wanted to cut your birthday cake first.

Amelio: I wanted- *pushes the cake off the table* Chocolate!!!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Amelio: Tonight, one of you will betray us.

Shadow: Is it me, Amelio?

Amelio: No, it's not you.

Allie: Is it me, Amelio?

Amelio: It's not you either.

Koda: Is it me, Amelio?

Amelio: ...

Koda: ...

Amelio: *mockingly* Is IT mE aMeLiO?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Amelio: On a scale from "damn Daniel" to "fre sha vaca do", how are you feeling?

Shadow: In between "it's an avocado, thanks" and "how did you defeat Captain America", but as a solid answer I would say "I don't need a degree to be a clothing hanger". How about you Allie?

Allie: Probably "road work ahead"

Koda: *rocking in the corner* I speak many languages, and this is none of them.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Allie: *covering his nose* You know those things will kill you, right?

Amelio: *pouring himself another glass of whiskey* That's the point.

Shadow: *smoking a cigarette* We're trying to speed up the process.

Koda: *nods while eating raw cookie dough*

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Shadow: *talking about Allie* Apparently we're getting someone new in our group.

Amelio: Are we stealing them?

Koda: New or used?

Shadow: *deadpans* Wonderful responses, both of you.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Amelio: Self care is actually getting into fights with randoms in a dark alley.

Shadow: No, self care is stuff like taking a bubble bath or putting on a lot of makeup if you like it, or taking a nice warm nap.

Allie: No way! Self care is the burning heat when rage washes over you!! Self care is when you feel the bones crack under your powerful fists!! Self care is the fear in your enemies eyes!!

Koda: Lmao, self care is taking your birthday cake just so you can eat the frosting.

Amelio: *stares dead straight at Koda* If you touch my birthday cake I'll make you eat your hands.

Shadow: *to Allie* I've never been more turned on by you.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Amelio: Must be hard not being able to laugh

Shadow: I do have a sense of humor you know.

Amelio: I've never heard you laugh before.

Shadow: I've never heard you say anything funny

Amelio: *clutches his chest*

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Amelio: You lying, cheating, piece of shit!

Shadow: Oh yeah? You're the idiot who thinks you can get away with everything you do. WELCOME TO THE REAL WORLD!!

Amelio: I'm leaving you and I'M TAKING ALLIE WITH ME!!

Koda: *picking up the monopoly board* I think we're gonna stop playing now.

Allie: *playing with the little monopoly pieces*
