Cha Cha Del Zombo - Brazzos & l'Ok Jazz

1963

Groove you can't resist!

Let the infectious rhythm of Cha Cha Del Zombo sweep you away.

To begin, lemme present you a list that I made last night:

People Charles would find attractive (and thought that’s heterosexual thing to do):

* Elvis Presley

* Tony Curtis

* John F Kennedy

* George Takei

…and more! If you have any more ideas, lemme know.

Now, to the scene.

Let’s say it around 2022/2023, and Charles still doesn’t know that Mr Takei is, in fact, someone more than an ally. And that he, Mabel and Oliver got invited on some fancy dinner party (I mean, he does know about that, that one is to let’s say).

And that someone made him realize, that most heterosexual males are not attracted to Tony Curtis, or George Takei.

-

Charles: Why- how would I know their sexualities?

Oliver: How would you, exactly.

[Quite obviously, CHARLES’ in shock. OLIVER looks quite delighted, and MABEL just enjoys the show]

Charles: When, when did he even came out?

Oliver: So, to the public he came out in 2005. For me, way back in the 70s.

Charles: Why would he came out to you? [scoff]

Oliver: [humble] Well, it’s nice to know of someone’s taste into you before you take them to bed.

[MABEL almost spits out her drink; OLIVER tries not to grin, and stay in his humble persona, and CHARLES has his mouth wide open, not believing what he just heard. OLIVER lifts up his hand, and closes CHARLES’ mouth, gently patting his cheek afterwards, kindness in his eyes. CHARLES regains his posture]

Charles: You know what? This is bullshit. I’m tired of you making up all of those „celeb stories” of yours. Grow up.

[in the meantime, they’re approached by GEORGE TAKEI himself]

George: Ollie! [he greets OLIVER, places his hands on PUTNAM’s arms and kisses him on both cheeks]

Oliver: Georgie [smiles, and seemingly ignores CHARLES, who is (quite understandably) in shock] Have you met my friend, Charles-

George: -Haden Savage, of course [now, he turns to CHARLES, and shakes his hand] Haven’t had the pleasure yet.

Charles: Oh- oh, yes. My pleasure.

Oliver: [under his breath] It sure is.

[For that, he got lightly and quietly smacked by MABEL and her elbow]

Mabel: Mabel Mora [now, it’s her turn to shake his hand, which she does gracefully] It’s really lovely to meet you.

George: The pleasure is mine. After all, Oliver’s friends are my friends [again, he smiles at PUTNAM, and lets go of MABEL’s hand]

Oliver: Now, listen, Georgie, Charles here is a big fan of yours [two pairs of eyes are locked at OLIVER; GEORGE is just looking, with kindness in his eyes, and CHARLES is murdering OLIVER with his gaze. MABEL, on the other hand, is looking at CHARLES, worried that he might blow up (literally, not like at OLIVER) any second] And I thought, why wouldn’t you give him your number? I’m sure he’d be thrilled. And, after all, you’re both big TV stars. I’m sure there’s lots of stuff you two can talk about.

George: Oh, there’s no problem whatsoever,

[GEORGE starts looking around for some piece of paper and something to write with; and while he can’t find anything to write on, he was handed a black marker by MABEL. As if it’s nothing, he takes CHARLES’ hand and starts writing his numer on it. OLIVER is happily smiling, looking at MABEL and CHARLES. MABEL is also looking at her besties, and CHARLES is speechless]

George: There you go.

[GEORGE smiles at CHARLES, and gives MABEL back her marker. Someone in the room yells for GEORGE, so he excuses himself and leaves the podcast trio. Now, as they’re left alone, OLIVER and MABEL looks at CHARLES with anticipation. SAVAGE tho, instead of doing something they’d expect, just looks OLIVER and goes:]

Charles: It’s ridiculous! Is there any celebrity that’s our age that you haven’t slept with?

[Before OLIVER can answer, MABEL chimes in]

Mabel: I don’t know, you?

[CHARLES scoffs]
