Atlas: I told you, it was important-

Dan: Important enough to ignore my phone call THREE times. That’s fucking embarrassing! Do I look like a joke to you?? 

Atlas: PFFT imagine being desperate. That IS embarrassing!

Dan: Shut up! Where were you?!

Atlas: Ok come on now, you just told me to not talk. What do you want??

Dan: Answer the question!

Atlas: [ stifled laugh ] I dunno. Where was I?

Dan: Motherfucker!

Atlas: It was a dude this time.

Dan: You’re such a-

Ares: Dan?

Atlas: AH-

Dan: DUDE! Dude. Duuude.

Ares: Dude?

Dan: You guys were amazing! How have I not seen you sooner?

Atlas: World’s worst groupie.

Dan: I’ll push you into the lake. 

Ares: And if he can’t swim?

Atlas: Yeah, what then??

Dan: Then you’re an accomplice to murder.

Ares: Okayy-uh. Let’s not do that. So. You guys wanna join us? We’re gonna get a couple of drinks.

Atlas: Oh my god, you guys are gonna buy me a drink? You shouldn’t have.

Dan: Pretend like he isn’t here.

Ares: I’m sorry, pretend who isn’t here?

Dan: Exactly.

Atlas: HAH!

Dan: Icarus, this is Atlas, Frances’s brother.

Icarus: Holy shit, she’s only ever mentioned you once. I was starting to think you weren’t real.

Atlas: Sounds accurate.

Dan: [ mouths ] Don’t.

Icarus: I only meant- Uhm, they were pretty private about their personal life but I see the resemblance. 

Atlas: Cool. So how do you know ‘em?

Icarus: I was their boss and… Uh.

Dan: They kissed. 

Icarus: Holy shit that sounds problematic.

Atlas: Incredibly but who am I to judge? Congrats to you both.

Icarus: We aren’t together. Uh, life got in the way.

Atlas: [ huffs ] You sure it just wasn’t you?

Icarus: What do you mean by that?

Dan: [ whispers ] Come on.

Atlas: There’s always long distance, no? 

Icarus: It’s not that simple.

Atlas: Oh please. You’re overcomplicating it.

Icarus: Am not.

-

Ares: Where are we going?

Dan: Away from all the noise.

-

Atlas: Hm.

Icarus: What are we- What are we doing here?

Atlas: I’m just curious.

Icarus: You mean nosy.

-

Ares: You know it’s closed, right?

Dan: Mhm, and I know you have the keys.

Ares: Smart girl.

-

Atlas: A few simple questions really. Besides, you answered.

Icarus: You asked. 

Atlas: [ snorts ]

Icarus: What?

Atlas: Look. All I’m trying to say Icarus is sometimes we’re the obstacle.
