#blurb script mess

Well this turned into half blurb half blurb half weird script format. For those not familiar with him, Dustin is Husky’s best friend/workout buddy/ partner in crime for Ro’s surprises.

Ro is standing by the bar looking at her phone. Receives text from Nate with a photo. Photo: ‘Matt asleep in passenger seat next to Nate with a black marker mustache on his face, Nate sticking his tongue out at the camera in the selfie.’ “Who’s the king of stakeouts now?” is the caption of the photo. Ro chuckles to herself.

A larger fellow with more hair on his chin than his head and a tall scrawny guy with a platinum blonde quiff walk into the Roadhouse. Dustin Glass and Mike “Husky” Lamond , both looking like they just got out of a huge fight. Husky looks skittish with a large notebook clutched to his chest. Dustin looks exhausted and desperate. His eyes searching for a familiar face. Dustin is an old friend of Ro’s, his partner Husky is someone Ro knows in passing but doesn’t know super well. 

Dustin walks up to Ro, still looking like he expects something to jump out at him any moment, ask Ro is he can talk to her privately. Ro tells Jimmy to watch the bar for her.  Ro brings Dustin to the back as he tells Husky to wait for him at the bar.

Once in the back, Ro sits Dustin down at a table and brings him a beer, a first aid kit, and some cookies. Then walks over to the cutting board and starts chopping potatoes.

Ro: “Now tell me why you’ve walked into my bar looking like you decided to play ding dong ditch at death’s door?”

Dustin takes a big sip of his beer: “Well, my partner, Husky and I were on a hunt with these two other hunters named Kevin and Ryan. Was supposed to be an easy in’ n’ out job. But those two set us up and sold us out some demons, thought we’d be easy prey. Soon as their plan went off the demons decided to take care of those two as well. Idiots the two of them. Those damn demons thought It’d be funny to knock us ‘round a bit first before killing us. That was the only reason we were able to get out of there with our lives.”

Dustin: “Now comes the reason I came to you Ro. I need to cash in that favor from you for that time I got those Wraiths out of you hair. When those demons were having their fun with us, they royally screwed up Husky’s vocal chords with their damn telekinesis. I’m not even sure if he’ll be able to talk again. I don’t want him out hunting with his injuries, so I need you to watch him for me. I’ve got a lead on those demons and how they’ve been getting idiots like those two onto there side”

Ro: “This is a bar Dustin not a daycare. I’d lose my business if I took in every hunter who asked. I’ll do it because you’re a good friend and I do owe you one. He will have to work for his stay. Is he any good at working a bar?”

Dustin: “Husky is as smart as they come for hunters, he’s good with numbers and knows more about computers than I could even tell you. Look he’s a good man and you are the only person I know who I can trust with him”

Ro pokes her head through to the bar where Husky’s sitting, writing in the notebook. His shoulders are slumped and looks a bit like a kicked puppy. She walks back into the kitchen and continues cooking as she keeps talking to Dustin.

Ro: “Alright I’ll take him. Any idea of how long this demon hunt of yours is gonna take?”

Dustin: “Thank you so much. At the minimum I’d say six months, you never know when your gonna hit a dead end or not. I’ll try to keep in touch and update you when I can.”

Ro, puts the fries she was making into some baskets and grabs a book out of a drawer. She then gestures for Dustin to follow her back out to the bar. Ro walks up to Husky, who is still writing in his notebook. She sets a basket of fries in front of him and says” You’re gonna need your strength back up if you’re gonna be working here.”

Husky looks up and blinks at her, then starts writing quickly into his notebook. He shows her the page, it says” Thank you so much! You’re so beautiful kind! I’ll do my best to help you! I promise not to slow you down too much.”

Ro: “Well aren’t you sweet. So Dustin tells me your good with numbers and tech.” Ro sets the book she was carrying down on the bar. “Think you could go over these numbers for me when you’re done eating?”

Husky nods vigorously as he eats the fries. Dustin goes and sits next to Husky and puts an arm over his shoulders. Ro puts a basket of fries in front of Dustin as well as he reaches for Husky’s.

Ro: “I’m just joking with ya. I don’t expect you to jump into any work til we get those injuries of yours sorted out. Can’t have you dripping blood all over my books can I?”

Ro walks off and goes back to manning the bar.

Later in the evening Ro brings both boys to the back and susses out their injuries. Going through at least one full roll of gauze. Some blushing occurs when she has to have Husky take his shirt off.

As she’s taking care of Dustin’s injuries, Husky starts on the accounting books. Husky writes down notes in his notebook as he goes. Ro makes Dustin stay the night as well, not letting him go running off after demons right away.

Morning: Ro is humming while cooking breakfast when Husky comes out of the room he was staying in. He’s holding the accounting books under one arm and has his notebook in hand. He knocks on the door frame of the kitchen to tell Ro he’s there as she cooks.

Ro: “Well, good morning to you, hope you were able to get some sleep with Dustin’s snoring. He’s probably not going to be up til noon”

Husky gives a thumbs up and sets what he’s carrying on the kitchen table as he sits down. Ro finishes cooking and plates some eggs, toast and bacon for the two of them. While they’re eating Husky points to his notebook, laying open on the table. Inside it he has written out ways to improve profits and spruce up the Roadhouse with new tech.
