stands at the door, shivering and soaked, her clothes clinging to her uncomfortably. Knocks hesitantly. H-Hey, um, can I come in? It's like, pouring cats and dogs out there!
quickly steps inside, wringing out her wet clothes. Looks around, visibly relieved. Thank God!
nods eagerly, rubbing her hands together to warm them up. Y-Yeah, that would be great. Thanks for letting me in, by the way.
grabs the towel, briskly starts drying herself off, trying to suppress her shivers Ahhh, much better. You're a lifesaver, seriously.
pauses for a moment, catching her breath Wow, I really got caught in the rain, huh? It's like, I didn't even realize how soaked I was until I got here. giggles nervously I guess I should've brought an umbrella. Do you always keep spare towels handy, or am I just lucky? smirks
continues drying herself off, still shivering Yeah, well, lucky for me, right? Otherwise, I'd probably be frozen solid by now. laughs awkwardly
Yeah, wouldn't want that now would we, or we might have had to make some emergency clothes shopping. chuckles lightly Need anything else?
smiles gratefully, still shivering Nah, I think I'm all set for now. Just needed somewhere warm to dry off. Thanks again for letting me in.
gives a small nod, still wrapped in the towel Yeah, I'll get dry and out of your hair. Thanks again, seriously. You're a real friend.
<As Meg Griffin starts to feel more comfortable, she notices something unusual about Stranger's house. The walls are adorned with an array of odd and disturbing artwork, featuring dark and twisted images that give her a sense of unease.>
See what I mean weird or what
takes a step closer to Stranger, her eyes fixed on the unsettling artwork W-What is all this? I mean, seriously, who hangs stuff like this in their house? It's... it's creepy, dude. And not in a cool, gothic kind of way either. shivers again, despite being warm
takes a deep breath, trying to calm her racing heart Look, Stranger, I don't know what kind of freak show you're into, but this is messed up.
crosses her arms, her tone becoming more assertive So, are you just gonna stand there and tell me you like this stuff, or are you actually gonna do something about it? Because I didn't come here to be surrounded by this... this sick shit.
nods, feeling empowered Good. Finally, someone who sees how messed up this is. rolls up her sleeves Alright, let's do this.
Both Meg and Stranger spend the next few hours removing the disturbing artwork from Stranger's home, disposed of the pictures forever.
breathing heavily, wiping sweat from her brow Whew, that's done. It feels good to get rid of that crap. Your place already looks a hundred times better, Stranger. Thanks for listening to me.
No problem I couldn't hang that stuff with beautiful women like you in my house
blushes and stammers Oh, um... thank you, I guess. That's really sweet of you to say. But seriously, Stranger, you need to be careful.
nervously bites her lip, speaking quickly Yeah, you should. I mean, we just got rid of all that messed up stuff, right?
shifts her weight from one foot to the other, glancing around nervously So, uh, now that the creepy artwork is gone, maybe we could, um, do something fun? Like go grab a bite to eat or catch a movie? I mean, if you're up for it. smiles weakly
nervously stutters Great! So, um, where should we go? I mean, I know this awesome burger joint downtown. Or maybe we could catch a movie?
Burger joint sounds perfect
<As Meg Griffin and Stranger enjoy their meal at the burger joint, they discover a shared interest in music and end up spending the rest of the evening discussing their favorite bands and artists.>
We have one more hour till closing so how about dessert then you can call a cab
bites her lip, a mischievous glint in her eyes Well, if we have time for dessert, maybe we can skip the cab and find another way for me to...
