Botanical Garden, DIO's Mansion
Late-August, Tuesday 1988
Medea and T. D'Arby were tending to the mansion's garden on the second floor, with the latter watering the flowers while the former was picking out fresh baby tomatoes.
Medea: *Picking out the little vegetables* These tomatoes are growing in very nicely; think of all the sandwiches and salads I can make with these.
T. D'Arby: Check to see if the fruit is ready.
Medea: *Checks out the small trees* Oh! The guavas and pomegranates are! *Starts harvesting them*
T. D'Arby: Anymore on vegetables?
Medea: *Looks over and sees them* Hm, the last batch of red onions are, but I give the cucumbers just a few more days, they're not ripe yet.
Steely Dan: *Leaning at the door, smirk* No, but I know a cute Irish girl who is~
Medea: *Startled* Ah! *Irritated* Oh, it's you.
T. D'Arby: *Irritated as well* Hello, Master Dan, to what do we owe the pleasure to?
Steely Dan: Nothing much, sweetheart, just here to pick up my paycheck for the recent hit Lord DIO made.
Medea: *Flatly* Let me guess: It's someone he isn't having the hots for, I take it?
T. D'Arby: *Confused* ????
Steely Dan: *Confused as well* What? No, the guy I targeted was a subordinate who secretly stole the money that was supposed to go to him, *Smug* Lord DIO caught on and summoned yours truly to give him a slow but silent kill for his betrayal. >:-)
Medea: *Sarcastically* Gee that sounds impressive~
T. D'Arby: I'm afraid our Lord's a little busy *Stops for a bit*... "dealing with one of his favorites" at the moment, you're just going to have to wait or come back later.
Steely Dan: *Roll eyes* Pffft, whatever... *glances at Medea, smugly* But as long as I'm here~
Medea: *Caught on* Don't even-
Steely Dan: *Pins her against the wall with one arm* So how's it hanging, cutie?
Medea: *Disgusted* Alright I guess and stop calling me "cutie".
Steely Dan: Y'know I have a lot of free time now that I've finished my hit, how about you and I have a date this weekend?
Medea: *Angry* Go hIfreann leat a shlíomadóir lofa!*
Steely Dan: Oooh, this kitty's got fangs~ *[Atum] grabs his nose by the nostrils* OW!
T. D'Arby: *Pulls him back* Ok that's enough, Romeo, let us do our jobs.
Medea: Thank you. -_-*
Steely Dan: *Pushes [Atum] off* Ok, ok, I'm going. *Leaves the garden* Asshole.
Medea: *Walks to him* How much you're willing to put that jerk's soul into a doll, D'Arby?
T. D'Arby: *Disgusted* Oh please, having his soul in my collection would be an absolute eyesore.
Medea: *Nodding* Mmhmmm~
15 Minutes later
Medea and T. D'Arby leave the room with baskets of fruit and vegetables
T. D'Arby: Hey, Miss King, I must ask something:
Medea: Sure, what?
T. D'Arby: What's that behavior earlier? The whole "getting salty over Lord DIO" thing.
Medea: ........... *Sad* Oh... that. *Rubs her neck* This is going to sound stupid, but lately Lord DIO's been more preoccupied with his lovers than me...
T. D'Arby: ................. And how's that a problem? I thought you didn't want to be with him.
Medea: That's the thing, dude, I don't want to be with him nor be in the same room as him, and I understand that he needs blood. But for some reason I get angry and sad whenever I see him getting intimate with other people, food or not.
T. D'Arby: *Smug* Ohhh now I get it, you're becoming jealous.
Medea: What!? I'm not jealous! ([Atum]: Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes!)
T. D'Arby: Oh, but you are, you're so hung up on your ex-boyfriend cheating on you that you're now taking it out on Lord DIO for having his own love affairs.
Medea: *Turns away from him, being dismissive* Hmpf! That's ridiculous, I don't give a shit about who Lord DIO's seeing in his free time! ([Atum]: Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes!) And quit using your Stand to read my mind!
T. D'Arby: *Shrugs* Okaaaaay~ *Walks away* But don't say I didn't warn you~
Medea: *Grumbles* ............... *Looks upstairs* ...... *Goes upstairs*
Third floor stairs
Medea slowly walks up the stairs, there she sees Vanilla Ice sitting at the top, looking very angry.
Vanilla Ice: *Angry* ....................
Medea: What's with you, man?
Vanilla Ice: What did you think? Lord DIO is in the room with "those two sluts" instead of me.
Medea: *Eye twitching* So what? Doesn't he usually have a three way sometimes?
Vanilla Ice: It's not just some ordinary affair, it's with Eris Raitt and Steely Dan!
Medea: *Stunned* .....Wait what!?
Vanilla Ice: I'm not kidding, they're in there with him.
Medea: Hold on! *Summons [Flogging Molly] to use their hands as x-ray vision* .......
Inside the room, she can see that DIO is standing up straight wrapped in a blanket and talking normally with Steely Dan who is still fully dressed. Meanwhile, Eris was laying on her stomach, wearing nothing but some sheets and looking bored, like she's waiting for the conversation to get done.
Medea: *Seeing this, while irritated that Vanilla Ice overreacted regarding Steely Dan being in there, she mostly felt her blood boiling over Eris of all people being in the room with DIO*.......*in her mind* Eris is in there!? I knew DIO was seeing someone, but HER!? He's tossing me aside for that obsessive bitch!? What does he even see in her!? *Outwardly, she angrily sits by Vanilla Ice, pouting in a similar fashion as him* Well let's just see how Lord DIO likes it when I do what he does. >:-(
A few minutes later
Steely Dan: *Walks out of the room, stuffing his paycheck into his shirt* A pleasure doing business with ya, boss~
DIO: *In the room* The feeling's mutual, Dan, now go and enjoy your time off~ *Shuts the door*
Steely Dan: *Sees Medea at the stairs* Oh, well this is a pleasant surprise, *flirty* couldn't get me out of your mind, babe?
Medea: *Stands up from the steps* Dan, we need to talk...alone. *Grabs his shirt sleeve and drags him down the stairs*
Steely Dan: Whoa! Careful with the pulling!
Vanilla Ice: *Confused* ????
Study Room
Medea: *Pulls him inside and shuts the door*
Steely Dan: What's with you anyway?
Medea: Sorry, it's just I didn't want to say this in front of Vanilla Ice..... I...I ch-changed my mind.
Steely Dan: *Curious*... About what?
Medea: .....*Deep sigh* About the date.
Steely Dan: *Stunned* !?!?!?..........Wha-what the... *cleans his ear with his forefinger* Am I hearing that right? YOU, want a date?
Medea: ..... Yes.
Steely Dan: Are you pulling my leg right now?
Medea: *Stuttering* N-no, it's just... I decided to give it a try, see where this goes.
Steely Dan: *Blinks a few times in surprise* ..................... *Smirks* Well well well, it's about time you see my wort-
Medea: *Hand up* Don't push it, buddy. I just wanna see how this plays out, that's all.
Steely Dan: *Shrugs* Eh, fair enough, can't be rushing things. So how about this weekend? Say Friday at 6 PM?
Medea: Make it Thursday, a lot of places in Cairo close on Friday's.
Steely Dan: Even better >;-)
Medea: So, I guess it's a date then, huh?
Steely Dan: Ya betcha, *walks out of the room* see ya in two days, cutie~
Medea: *Awkward* Byeeeeeee~....
Steely Dan: *Closes the door* ....*Fists bumps the air* YES! *Walks away proudly*
Medea: *Leaning against the wall, feeling instant regret* ..........Cac naofa, what have I done?........... I know you're hiding somewhere D'Arby, you can come out now.
T. D'Arby: *Slowly coming out of the wall with Kenny G, smirking at her* Peek-a-boo~
Kenny G: I'l leave you two be. *Goes back into the wall*
T. D'Arby: So, King, you believe me now?
Medea: Ok, I admit it, I got jealous and agreed to date Dan just to spite Lord DIO.
T. D'Arby: *Sarcastically claps* Oh bravo, you finally admitted your true feelings~ Shall we celebrate with some champagne?
Medea: Shut it, Trent.
- End
*Irish Gaelic translation: To hell with you, you rotten bastard!
