"Atomic Comics, actually. And a daycare center," I add Angela's preschool after realizing that I kind of did work there.

"Nice to meet you too, Alice," I shake her hand.

I walk back to Murphy. "I work for McDonald's for now."

"Ahh, cool! Kids are fun, don't you think? Also...I worked for McDonald's once...for like a week."

"I'm really enjoying your shows so far on the tour." I smiled.

"As long as their other people's, yeah, I guess," I answer. I just don't think I'd ever have my own. I wouldn't be a good mom, plus, honestly, who the hell would fuck me? I wasn't really all that pretty, I was beyond boring to talk to, and I was such a geek!

"Thanks," I return her smile with one of my own. I haven't.

"Yeah, I remember my little siblings, love the little fuckers, but, damn they were annoying.."

"Agreed, for now." I blew out a puff of smoke, laughing.
"...What's wrong?" I asked, feeling a little nosy. But it had already slipped out of my mouth.

I start to panic a little. I look around, at the equipment scattered, the people scurrying around. "Uh, nothing, well, I'm tired. Touring takes a lot out of you, ya know?"

"Oh, yeah. I understand. Sorry for being so nosy. I'll just...go now, if you want."

"It's fine, jeez!" I smile a little. "Might as well stay here, my brother picked up some chicks walking around. I don't know his logic, but hey, whatever, right?"

"Haha, yeah. So how are you liking the other bands so far? Or have you bothered watching any of their shows?"

Subject: Re: MCR backstage Sun Sep 18, 2011 5:06 pm

"I wander from time to time," admit. "I never really stay for the entire set, but, honestly, if you're here, even if you don't sound good, it still feels and looks like you do, right?"

Subject: Re: MCR backstage Sun Sep 18, 2011 5:09 pm

"Um... So, how are you guys?" I ask, not really knowing what to say.

"Yeah, I know what you mean." I took a sip of my coffee that had been sitting on a random amp.

I look at Mikey. "This conversation is so fucking awkward," I mouth. I hope he understood it, because I was never saying it out loud. It still felt so weird that I was here, just because I'd literally walked into Mikey Way from My Chemical Romance.

I nod. "Soo...?" I say, combing my hair away from my face with my hand.

"So, what's it like playing on the Warped Tour?" I asked, sighing.

"So....do you guys like dogs?"

Subject: Re: MCR backstage Sun Sep 18, 2011 5:16 pm

I shrug. "Dogs are alright, I guess." I'd had a dog once. He got hit by a car, and my dad had told me that he died. I was nine years old.

"Fun, but really tiring and stressful. You're part of this shit, too, Alice!" I point out.

"Yeah, but I don't get to actually play on it! I'm just the girl who drags peoples' shit around and sets up."

"Oh... well I have a lot. They're amazing. I had to leave them back home though." I said sadly.

Subject: Re: MCR backstage Sun Sep 18, 2011 5:20 pm

"Are you, or are you not as busy, if not busier than the band, though?"

Subject: Re: MCR backstage Sun Sep 18, 2011 5:21 pm

"I like dogs. I had one when I was like nine but my dad was allergic so we had to give it away."
"Wanna go somewhere else?" I mouth to Murphy the best I could..

Subject: Re: MCR backstage Sun Sep 18, 2011 5:22 pm

I nod, smiling because he understood me. It was nice knowing that someone could.

Subject: Re: MCR backstage Sun Sep 18, 2011 5:24 pm

"Where?" I mouthed, cause I had no idea.

Subject: Re: MCR backstage Sun Sep 18, 2011 5:25 pm

I shrug, mouthing "Anywhere?" Just not here. This is weird.

"I am, usually. You know, at least I'm getting paid to see the world, right? Or at least...some of it. More than I would if I was stuck back at home."

"That sucks! It's okay, I guess. I think you'd like my dogs."

Subject: Re: MCR backstage Sun Sep 18, 2011 5:29 pm

"There's some optimism! And you are probably getting paid more than many of the musicians on the tour, right?" I add a nervous laugh at the end, trying to lighten the mood.

Subject: Re: MCR backstage Sun Sep 18, 2011 5:31 pm

I shrugged too. "Wanna get food?" I mouthed.
"Maybe. What breeds do you have?"
