- 2° - Steal from the Rich and Give to the Sexy

[catchacold]

I was going to report a crime.

[The voice of Leonard Snart comes on, distinctive as ever. He looks into the camera, apparently leaning against a wall in a dimly lit room with pounding music and some flashing light. In his free hand he holds a beer, on his head he wears a pointy head that says 'Wizzard' on it, which might be familiar to some.]

But I'm not even sure what's going on here.

[That said he turns the camera to show Axel Walker, who - as usual - is a sight to behold.]

Make it rain! Oh yeah baby, just like that -- oh oh you are so fine.

[Axel is throwing what little money he stole because, you know, strip clubs aren't the best place to steal from, right back at the strippers. It's noble, you know. Like Robin Hood. He steals from the ugly old owners and gives to the sexy girls in need. Honestly, it's like charity, he's doing a good thing here. How could anyone want to put an end to this? Sliding some ones into girls' thongs, he turns to Leonard. While he's not entirely sure why he's being filmed, he assumes good reasons? He grins at the camera and tries his best to look cool, his body language changing to a sort of obnoxious swagger.]

Hey, yo, it's the Trickster once again and if you wanna get a little wiggle in your lap, come on down. I'm gonna be throwing singles at these honeys all night. No one is gonna stop me neither.

[He smirks cockily and turns back to the stripper, throwing a load of money at her.

Not to worry, children and concerned citizens, in spite of them obviously being at a strip club, Leonard takes care not to show anything that could entirely rob one's innocence.

He brings the camera back around to his face, just about smiling and clearly more amused than horrified.]

Help? I need a hero.

this is the worst, video;

[whatyoumust]

[.....................

narrows eyes]

Is he... even old enough to be there?

what a responsible adult, video;

[catchacold]

He claims to be twenty-one.

[He asked him before he first took him to a bar. He's a good criminal.]

Maturity hasn't kicked in yet.

video

[lovestoys]

Of course I'm old enough. Are you blind or something?

[How can you not recognised a fully matured man in all his glory. Just for that, you don't get a lapdance.]

video;

[itistolaugh]

Singles. Wow. Okay, yeah, he's super annoying, but being cheap isn't a crime.

Is it?

video;

[catchacold]

He started the evening by telling me about the huge heist he's pulling. I'm not sure why he's just pulling on g-strings now.

[He'll call out anyway, for the greater good.]

Axel! Stop being cheap.

video

[lovestoys]

I could give more, babe but I wanna see how it progresses before I throw all my cash and I can't throw it all at one girl. I'm sharing it.

It's like equality or some shit. Everyone gets singles but everyone gets to benefit, you dig me? It's fair. [He smiles his most charming smile.] For you? I'd pay higher.

video;

[wizzardly]

Do you see what he's wearing?

video;

[pyrogue]

I'd say "Only a matter of time" but it don't make it better.

video;

[catchacold]

He's feeling altruistic, the moment you sit down he'll buy you a lap dance.

[There's a reason he's standing.]

In case you have a free evening.

video

[lovestoys]

Dude get yo ass down here, you so need some sexy bitches all over you, let's be honest.

Naked dudes in your room and all, people are gonna start thinking you're all queer.

video;

[itistolaugh]

You should go get a lap dance.

[golden_glider]

[Before the camera even focuses on her face there's a manic, disbelieving burst of laughter that's clearly been going on for a while before the feed actually starts. She's almost calmed down.

Lisa tries for something resembling disgust, but really, she just can't believe her luck.]

TMI, Lenny.

| Video |

[catchacold]

Lis?!

[That might have sounded like genuine joy for a moment there, better cover that up in a hurry. Leonard's brain is quickly to catch up with this and he looks at the communicator, simply taking in that it's her. Really her.

Then the situation sinks in entirely and he clears his throat, offering a shrug.]

Not as if I'm dancing.

[lovestoys]

[Now there is a sexy girl. Like seriously. 10/10.

How did a hot girl like this know Cold? He wasn't really the type to pull. Not that he couldn't, he just seemed to be happier being ambiguously like queer with Mick. Axel jumps into frame and grins in her direction.

Time for the Ax-man charm.] Yo sexy, I'll buy lapdances for girls too, you know?

video

[airshow]

If he's twenty one I'm not gonna get in trouble for dangling a kid off a skyscraper, right? Just checking.

video

[catchacold]

Don't know how much that's related to age, but be my guest.

So, strip club heists aren't usual Trickster stuff?

video;

[socialactivillain]

[ Oh sweet jesus. ]


...At least he's being... generous?

video;

[catchacold]

Oh yeah. He calls it charity.

Give him a sec, he'll explain it to you.

video; 1/??

[wizzardly]

[that is a very familiar hat, Leonard. Familiar enough that Rincewind is already frowning deeply, annoyed that someone's gone and copied his badge of wizardry. A wizard's hat isn't a damned fashion statement, it's that wizard's everything! It's the only sign they are a wizard, and not just a man in silly clothing. You can just go and make a repro-]

[wizzardly]

[...duction. Only, it's a very good one, isn't it? Downright uncanny. He's even got the poor stitching and the falling sequins right...]

[mischiefsmith]

I have to wonder if it isn't the charming dancing ladies who require heroic assistance.

[catchacold]

Don't know about that. They tend to be better at handling slimy idiots than anyone else.

But come and save them, go for it.

video;

[heliophilic]

I'm surprised you both haven't gotten thrown out yet.

video;

[catchacold]

He's armed. Kind of. I think.

[Who knows? Tricksters.]

Me, I'm innocent.

video/action

[prostheticbody]

[Motoko is there on business. Honest. And not that kind of business, either. It just so happens that strip clubs are hives of scum and villainy, obviously.

Still, she looks somewhere between irritation and bemusement.]

This really isn't the show I paid to see.

action

[catchacold]

Give him a moment to notice it and it will be the show you were paid to give.

[It seems unavoidable.]

I'd apologise, but I refuse to take responsibility for him.

video!

[princeofrats]

... I didn't know wizards got drunk and went to strip clubs.

video!

[catchacold]

Wizzard. [Accomplished by stressing the 'z' sound while pointing at his hat.]

Why not? It's as magical as anywhere. Arguably more. Depends on who you're asking.

video

[musclemothers]

What are you, an animal? You steal cash and your first instinct is to throw ones? Twenties! Bare minimum!

[He sniffs, judgmental.]

Besides, you're not going to get any happy endings with that sort of behaviour.

video

[lovestoys]

Bro, chill, I'm just warming up. Seeing which ones have the most talent and then I'll break out the twenties. I ain't gonna waste my haul on some chick who can't even get my motor running, you dig me?

[There's a slight frown.]

Besides, I don't need tips. The girls are loving me. [They are not.]

ACTION!!!

[itistolaugh]

[ Two hot blondes walk into a bar strip club. Now it's a party.

... Oh, and Rincewind is there too. ]

[airshow]

[ James is chewing gum and he has his cell phone camera at the ready! Not to film the ladies, of course, because he's a gentleman. No, he's here to witness a beatdown. ]

[backinakidflash]

[ Bart's eyes are as big as saucers. What did he just watch, why is he even thinking about responding to this, why did he look at the comm tonight -

Hang on. Where did Axel actually get money? ]

Nope.

[ A beat. ]

Tell Axel to stop being a cheapskate.

[catchacold]

He's throwing a lot of those ones, it kind of adds up.

[Also, at this point, he's just throwing them at just about anyone. This crime is barely recognisable as such any more, but it is still highly entertaining.]
