[Action- 752 Partridge Drive ]

[It's Peter's birthday, and his creepy Drone-Wife has prepared him a cake. After coming home from work, she's placed a paper birthday hat on his head and invited him to the kitchen. He pauses momentarily to look at the hat in a nearby mirror and frowns at the red and blue balloons. He sighs heavily before following

Neutron Diner

[drspengler]

[He's left Venkman sitting there a little longer than he said he would and when he finally enters the diner and comes over to sit with Venkman it's hard to tell if he feels badly or not.]

Sorry I'm late. Lab accident. [And he leaves it at that.]

[drspengler]

[Big eyebrow-raise.]

Even if it would result in a hefty paycheck?

[sosghosts]

My life is a little more important to me, Spengs.

[drspengler]

... So you became a Ghostbuster?

[sosghosts]

What can I say, chicks dig it.

[drspengler]

Why am I not surprised that you would risk your life for chicks but not science?

[sosghosts]

You tell me.

[drspengler]

[Snorts.]

Because you're you.

[sosghosts]

So descriptive.

[drspengler]

[Eyerolls, then glances around and grabs the salt shaker.] Alright, Peter. This is you.

[Holds up the pepper shaker.] This is logic.

[He sets them on opposite ends of the table from each other and then clasps his hands together.]

Might be why I've stuck by you all these years. You make no sense to me and you know I hate walking away from a challenge.

[sosghosts]

Glad to be a challenge for you, Spengs.

[He grins, his attention being drawn by the waitress bringing them their food. He sits back as she places the food before them.]

[drspengler]

[Leans back as the waitress places his meal in front of him.] Thank you.

[He goes straight for the milkshake, of course.]

[sosghosts]

Too bad I can't say the same for you. [He picks up the pepper and places it back next to the salt shaker.]

You and logic aren't too far off, for me.

[drspengler]

[Eyebrow raise.]

Really? What was that you were saying about me killing myself?

[sosghosts]

Okay, that much I'll never understand... but for the most part, you're pretty easy to read.

[drspengler]

[Scrutinizing stare...]

What am I thinking right now?
