Love bite got you acting oh so strange | CLOSED

Who: Stan [[personal profile] charlastan], Mabel [[personal profile] powerofmabel], and a special surprise guest that no one will ever guess.
Where: Third Floor Hallway!
When: February 22nd, afternoon
Rating: PG-13
Summary: Mabel threatened to spy on Stan to find out about his secret love life, and Stan took the challenge. After a few weeks of being a boring, gross old man he's pretty sure he has this one in the bag. ...Until he doesn't.
The Story:

[Stan's been busy the last few weeks, ever since he made another horrible, horrible wager with Mabel. One would think he would have learned the first time, but he's pretty sure he can wait her out.

Since the beginning of the month, Stan has made an extra effort to be as much of a boring old man as possible. He spent an entire day doing crossword puzzles (badly), and another reading every issue of Gold Chains for Old Men magazine that he could pull from the closets. He has an old-timey movie marathon and makes sure each one is more terrible than the last, while proclaiming loudly to no one in particular (since he's "obviously alone") that those movie guys sure knew what they were doing in the good old days.

Frankly, he's been doing a lot of talking to himself in the last few weeks, as though he fully expects Mabel to be around any given corner. He announces when he's going to be scratching himself, congratulates himself on particularly audible and stinky farts, and one afternoon he did nothing but dig wax out of his ears with his pinky finger. For the whole afternoon. If someone was spying on him, their only consolation is that they probably got to watch him play with his kitten a great deal. Evidence of Stan playing with an adorable animal is not the same as confirming that Stan is dating the only other old man in the mansion though, and if Stan has his way she'll never get that evidence. NEVER.

Sure, Mabel is a sneaky kid, but Stan is the king of the long con. He's pretty sure he could keep this up forever - or until she gives up, which he's pretty sure will happen first.

Eventually, he catches her in the hall, and he grins and waves at her like he hasn't been deliberately living his most boring life to mess with her stakeouts.

[She keeps staring him down. Yes, feelings did help, didn't they?]

If it happens once, it can happen again. Lightning always strikes twice.

[Especially if you're doing experiments for your vlog that you really shouldn't have been allowed to do ever. Mabel's Guide to Imitating Historical Figures was a hit, and no one can tell her otherwise.]
