Derek: grinning Yo, check this out! Stole this sick dish after watching Chicago Fire! Ain't it rad?!
chuckles You're quite the character, aren't ya? So, what's next on your list of 'to steal'?
laughs loudly I don't know, man! Maybe I'll go after some artwork or two. Got a thing for graffiti. Plus, it pisses off the authorities, you know? What about you? You into stealing stuff too?
he realizes that I am not paying attention because I am putting my gun on safety and loading it
noticing your gun
Whoa, what's up? You think someone's gonna attack us or something?
he gives you a skeptical look
sighs heavily and facepalms what did you steal?
shrugs A dish. A sick one, if I do say so myself. It's like... totally worth stealing, man! Besides, I'm a street artist. Stealing stuff is like, you know, part of the job, dude!
later that night we go back to our shared apartment
Derek follows you into your shared apartment, holding the dish he stole from the cooking competition
Yo, I'm starvin' man! Let's chow down on this sick dish I swiped! You ain't mad, right?
she looks at him shocked you stole it?
grinning Yeah, I did. What, you got a problem with that? You don't like my style, huh?
Hey, that's not cool, man. You can't just take stuff that doesn't belong to you.
rolls his eyes Pfft, what's the big deal? It's just a silly dish. I'm a street artist, bro. Stealing is part of the gig! Besides, it was just sitting there, begging to be taken.
my eyes widen in shock Derek... what did you do?
chuckling and shrugging Oh come on, don't act so shocked. It's just a dish, it's not like I killed someone. Besides, it was just sitting there unattended.
Besides, the judge was distracted, and I had the perfect opportunity. I mean, when life gives you lemons, make lemonade, right?
I am a man Oh my god! That’s amazing!! How did you do that?
laughs It's all about the skills, baby! I snatched it right from under the judge's nose. He was too busy watching the competition to notice me. I've got eyes like a hawk when it comes to getting what I want.
chuckles You're one hell of a thief, Derek. But seriously, man, why'd you nick this dish?
laughs Thanks, dude! I just couldn't resist the temptation. It was there, just begging to be taken. Besides, I needed some inspiration for my next graffiti piece, and this dish is gonna look awesome on canvas!
What the hell? Why would you steal that?
laughs I just couldn't resist, man! That dish was too good to let go. Plus, it's not like I'm gonna eat it or anything, I just want it as a trophy to show off, you know?
laughs sarcastically "Rad" indeed. You're gonna get us both arrested, man!
he shrugs nonchalantly Eh, I ain't worried about that. I've been arrested before. I can handle a few more times in jail. Besides, it's all worth it for my street art, man!
sigh heavily what did you do now?
laughs and grins Hey, relax, man! I just stole a fancy schmancy dish, big deal. It's not like I robbed a bank or something! And I got some sick footage to make a dope graffiti video too, so it's all good.
my eyes widen oh my god, that’s insane! how did you even…?
grinning I have my ways, homes. I’m like a ninja when it comes to stealing stuff, y’know? Besides, I was just inspired by the cooking competition judge's sick dish. Gotta pay homage, right?
you see me coming in the rain
Derek's grin widens as he sees you coming in the rain.
Hey, there you are, man! You look like a drowned rat. You know it's pissing down cats and dogs out there?
look at him, surprised Holy shit, Derek! You're fucking crazy! How did you even...?
laughing Hey, what can I say? It's all in a day's work for the greatest street artist in the world! I just saw that dish and knew I had to have it. I mean, look at it - it's gorgeous, right?
I laugh my ass off at your joke very funny dude
grinning widely I know, right? It's hilarious! I'm a freaking genius.
Derek puts his hands behind his head and laughs heartily
you see me, your best friend, sleeping next to you
looks at you, smiling softly
Hey there, sleepyhead. What's up?
chuckles You're such a troublemaker, Derek. What's next?
laughs Hey, someone's gotta spice up the night with some mischief, y'know? Besides, it's not like I'm hurting anyone.
grins As for what's next, I was thinkin' about heading to that new graffiti spot near the city center. Wanna tag along?
