Once we made it down into the basement and Klayton turned on the lights, Beast went right to his little cubby hole under his desk, and Stutter slowly hopped out of his sleeping basket and gave a slight stretch as he began to purr very loudly with an extremely distinguished stutter. Klayton scooped him up and gave him a few kisses on his head and playfully ruffed him up and told him he really was a great cat and all, but he was such a lazy boy. Then he gave him a third kiss and handed him to me and said to meet Stutter Buddy his partner and teammate in the Celldweller world.

After the initial meeting of his pets, he turned on all of his alien equipment and sat down and warmed up on some of his keyboards, while I looked around at all of his very awesome Godzilla stuff he had all over his walls and in display cases, som...

After the initial meeting of his pets, he turned on all of his alien equipment and sat down and warmed up on some of his keyboards, while I looked around at all of his very awesome Godzilla stuff he had all over his walls and in display cases, some of it was quite old from the very first Godzilla film that was ever made. So just for shits and giggles, I asked him when the very first Godzilla flick came out. Klayton stopped playing on his keyboards and said it came out in Tokyo Japan, produced by the Toho Company Ltd and the story was written by Shigeru Kayama on November 3rd, 1954 but was released in the United States as Godzilla King of the Monsters.

I asked him if there was anything about Godzilla that he didn't know...he looked at me then walked up to me and held his finger up in the air and thought on it for a moment then jokingly said not at all, he was such a huge fanatic since he was 4 years old and has studied everything about the films and all the history behind the great Japanese classic films. I snickered at him as I told him how awesome he was. Klayton pulled me back to his keyboards and showed me some of his song titles and asked me if I wanted to hear some of them. I didn't give him another second to ask anything else and I sat down on his lap and said play away Mr. Stone. He chuckled lightly and said oh how he really liked me, then he turned on the music and grabbed his head microphone and waited for the music to commence before he began singing his song "Stay With Me, Unlikely" to me. Once I heard that song I totally fell in love with his voice and talent and asked him if I could hear some more.

Klayton smiled at me and said he had a million of them that he would love to let me hear. Then he brought out some of his older tracks and played 'Jericho', 'Frozen', 'Fadeaway', 'Blackstar', 'Own Little World', 'It Makes No Difference Who We Are', 'So Long Sentiment'...but my favorite one he sang to me and danced for me, was titled 'Switchback'. I told him I loved all of them, but Switchback was definitely my #1. He smiled at me and said was it just because of the music or did I also like his dance moves on that one as well. I looked down knowing fully well that I was blushing, but I managed to tell him that I definitely loved the dance moves to it. He walked over to me, and slid in beside me, and said he would be happy to teach the dance to me. Then if he ever wanted to take me to a dance club that played his song, we both could dance to it and show everyone on the dancefloor up.

But when he got a little too close he made me slightly nervous and he sensed it, and quickly backed off and changed the subject to offering me to head up to his movie lounge and get properly introduced to the King of the Monsters on his huge wall to wall HD television screen with killer ass sound system. I smiled up at him and told him I would love that because the only television I ever watched was the tv's that were in the electronic store's display case in the windows and they only played the news channel on them. I remember trying to sneak into a movie theater once to get warm, and to fill my curiosity about what it was like, but I was caught and tossed out before the shows were turned on.

Klayton made a pit stop to his fridge and pulled out two bottles of Cherry Coke and grabbed a huge bag of popcorn and popped it in the microwave, then Beast, Stutter, and I all followed him to his personal movie theater. He handed me the popcorn and one of the soda's while he popped the very first Godzilla flick into the machine and pushed play, then he ran over to me and plopped very close to me on the huge plush sofa and jokingly said let the Godzilla movie night commence...right then I knew he was planning on keeping me up all night watching every single Godzilla movie in numerical order.

But that wasn't the best part of the movie time...the best part to me was how he was telling me everything about each film he was the human/Godzilla commentary on them, sometimes instead of watching the movie, I just simply watched him explain them to me as he watched them...because listening to his mesmerizing voice was so much better to me. After we watched about 8 of the movies he asked me if I liked any of them...I told him very quickly that I liked all of them but so far the best one, in my opinion, was Godzilla Vs. Megalon and that was because I was totally digging the kick-ass robot Jet Jaguar. Klayton chuckled at me and said that was one of his favorites as well, but he learned to love and truly admire every single one even the poorly made ones.

I began to yawn uncontrollably, and Klayton looked at the clock and realized that it was almost 2:00 a.m. So he gave a long stretch and escorted me to the bedroom but because it was a bachelor's pad there was only one bedroom, so he said he would crash on the couch with Beast. I stopped him very quickly and said that the bed was big enough for two people, and I didn't mind sharing, for it would be my first experience in an actual bed plus I really liked his company. Klayton gave me a very friendly hug as he followed me into the bedroom and said he really liked my company too because I was the only one so far that appreciated the awesomeness of Godzilla films and their importance in the classic film genre. Then we both hopped in bed and the lights went out and we both passed out almost instantly, or so I thought.
