at 02:47 | [Side] Gonna Need A Bigger Couch (Saturday 9-5-15 Afternoon)Blake turns to look at the girls, and gives a little snort. "You're right, you're right." He sighs, "I'm just very... accustomed to a certain lifestyle, I guess."
He gives a little laugh, "To be honest, I think I might be having a harder time getting used to that, than, y'know... this." He gestures at himself, still wearing basically just his gym shorts*.
OOC: *I am assuming there were gym shorts big enough for Blake, it never was specifically mentioned. Otherwise, he's still got his makeshift coat.

Tons of goods move through there everyday. Father's got a deal set up with an electronics firm out of Japan..." He trails off, then shrugs, "I know, its boring stuff for most people, that's just what I grew up with."

She lets out a soft giggle a d shakes her head "You're not doing Good job painting different picture of LA. I mean... It has Hollywood and... Stuff."

at 23:40 | [Side] Gonna Need A Bigger Couch (Saturday 9-5-15 Afternoon)Blake breaks into a big grin, "Heh, Smug could be a weather condition, there's no shortage of that back home."
He says to Emily, "I've seen pictures of the smog LA's famous for, and its not like that anymore, really. The traffic's worse though." He adds under his breath.
Blake's grin turns a little playful, and he raises his hands palms up in concession. "Alright, fine; I'll admit. LA's mostly Hollywood." He gives Emily a little nod, "You gonna tell me Boston's more than sports, music and drinking?"

"The whole traffic thing though, at least that's one thing you can count on to be pretty much eternal right? No matter what else happens traffic in LA will always be terrible." She gives him a teasing grin.

at 03:45 | [Side] Gonna Need A Bigger Couch (Saturday 9-5-15 Afternoon)Blake glances at Johanna, then sort of into the middle distance as he responds in an offhand, casual tone. "Oh, uhhhhm... There's this huge fault line along the coast, and they say it could take everything out if we ever get a big enough quake."
He gives Emily a sly look from the corner of his eye, "The beaches are worth the risk though."

Her hand shoots up. "Plus I don't exactly get anything from exercise or tanning soo... I'll pass. You can keep your beaches."

"I certainly have no idea what your talking about. None at all whatsoever. Maybe you would like to share with the class? " She compliments the dead monotone with an unblinking stare.

The way Emily presents her latest question makes Johanna coo in a curious manner, looking at Blake with a cocked head.

at 00:12 | [Side] Gonna Need A Bigger Couch (Saturday 9-5-15 Afternoon)Blake puts on a pensive expression, and folds his arms, putting one finger to his lips, then gesturing with it. "Right, right. I forgot you Bostonians don't know about the sun." He shifts to a mock lecture-tone. "You see, the sun is that bright sphere up in the sky." He gestures with wide-spread hands. "And when it's out, all the beautiful people head to the beach. There's something for everyone there. For the guys; sunbathers. And for the ladies; the gun show!" Which he proceeds to demonstrate as he says it, maintaining eye-contact with Emily, trying to match her stoic expression, although a slight quiver pulling up the corner of his mouth betrays Blake.

He rubs his chin for a moment, considering the two, before announcing; "Ok, you know what?" He points at each of the girls in turn as he speaks. "I don't know when, and I don't know how, but mark my words; I am going to find a beach here, and we are going to the beach."
