The Domicile of Despair (long, epic, get your popcorn)

[dragon_wings]

Dammit Jay and Lupo! Y'all are making me laugh so hard I cough.

Moar story plz? *beggy face*

[Hanzoku]

But... but I *want* bad things to happen!

Or at least it's supposed to be morally bad when I enjoy the thought of a pack of rabid hyenas slowly ripping Slumlord apart while monkeys pelt him with their feces and an elephant accidentally sits on his head.

[dalesys]

I still prefer The Magnificent (Part) Seven.

[Moosenogger]

I don't understand why you didn't just call the police. Slumlord allowing people into your room without your consent or notice is illegal, and the way they destroyed your property is doubly so. Just allowing a police officer to look at your apartment and see the carnage would be enough to file a police report and possibly have the 'cleaners' arrested for vandalism.

Gah, someone posts an epic tale in installments, and it turns CSers into SCs.

What do you guys do when a TV serial episode ends at a cliffhanger? Geez.

Why, haven't you seen pics of this?



That's what happened after Lupo was watching CSI and it ended up being a two-parter. :<


...all those poor, disney-eyed, baby woodland creatures that were there too..... sigh.

Says the woman whose avatar is a hand holding a large kitchen knife . . . .

(in regards to her astonishment that some crazy chick would take a knife to the internet cables)

Nice and not crazy? In that train wreck of a place?! It just keeps getting worse and worse! I'm waiting for the building to blow up, or an invasion of Zombie Rats.

::settles in with and and waits to hear the rest of the story::

Tell me about it. There were 13 pages when I started reading. Now we're up to 14.

Hmm...how bad we talking here?

Pretty bad, from the looks of things. Gheesh!

Seraph, has anything in your life been normal?

I'm sorry, what was the question?

(cookies for reference)

Oh alright, I can find a pic of Kyo

Good lord! That's one fat cat. And he doesn't look too happy, poor fellow.

But he looks snuggly.

OK, Seraph. I'm outta popcorn! We need the climax of this train wreck!

Part Se7en

So I was sitting in shock, reading it over and over again, and wondering exactly wtf was going on.

I get a call from CG. He'd gotten a notice too.

We head on over to the office, and are told “Sorry, you didn't pay your rent. You're being evicted in 10 days.”

What? I paid my rent! Both of us ran back to our rooms, CG came back with check stubs, I'd used money orders and had both my receipts and the stubs. CG even showed on his bank statement how the check had been cashed already, just this week to boot.

Frowning, Slumlord marked us as paid.

As we were walking back, I told CG “Well, hope THAT doesn't happen again.”

Ah hah. Haha.

To save on storytelling time, I'll just tell you now that it happened every single month for the rest of our time there. They always “misplaced” the checks, and at once point, TRIPLE charged CG for the next month of rent due.

So anyways, CG and I bonded a lot over all the stuff going on. It was wonderful having someone to lean on for support during all of that, and a short time later, he proposed to me.

How could I resist? He got down on bended knee and held up a shiny new copy of Kingdom Hearts 2, and asked me. Seriously! Kingdom Hearts 2! FREE GAME. I couldn't say no, could I? ;D

So here we were. We were broke as get out, engaged, wanted to live together, and since we practically hung out together 24/7 anyways, it just made sense.

So CG and I approached the office to ask about combining leases, and moving in together. We even had someone lined up who wanted to rent out CG's place.

Slumlord denied it.

Our leases were off by two months, I'd registered slightly before CG, so therefore we'd have two extra months. In fact, Slumlord wanted us both to know that he'd charge us the rest of the lease's amount, PLUS a termination fee, if we wanted to do that. We were heartbroken, but only so much. We were going to have to pay for both places, but it seemed like such a small thing compared to how happy we were.

A few months later, we found out I was pregnant. (I'm not proud of that, but eh.) CG and I hurried around the place, getting everything ready for the baby, and the months flew by. My mother, trying to help out, gave us a mini refrigerator that had a small freezer, to help us out. We notified Slumlord, as the apartments already had a minifridge, and had him and one of the maintenance guys come and take theirs out. Slumlord put it in his office, stating “Second fridge just means more cold beer for me!”

Maintenance guy though, came back afterwards and told me quietly, that he'd marked down them taking out the fridge, and to let him know if anything came up. I quizzically asked him why, but he just shook his head and walked away.

Huh.

Another thing that happened of note, is that Drunk Chick next door failed out of school, and had to leave. Poor girl showed up at my door, crying and sobbing, that she was going to miss me and my tea, and that she was so mad she wouldn't get to see the baby.

Thankfully, nobody moved in, but that didn't really matter.

Then one night, I really “crossed the line” with Slumlord.

-End of Part 7-

And yes, I'm going to leave it there, I'll update that next part tomorrow, but we're actually almost done now. :P
