Race looked panicked. And drunk. It was really quite a pitiful combination. "It's our story that happened a long time ago, and Sapphy would prob'ly be totally bored..."

"Me and Spot had just started going together...and I'd pissed him off about something, so he made Racetrack take me off his hands, so I was up to ninety ya know?" Raven said with a huge grin.
"It was Race's job to get me in a good mood and quick."

Race sighed. If she was going to tell it, he was going to help. No fun letting her take all the credit, even for an incident this embarrassing.
"Well, I didn't know Rae that well yet, but she was obviously Italian, and I was Italian, and I figured the answer was wine."

"A lot of wine, we broke into some old italian guy's basement and uncorked a cask..." Raven said with a laugh.

Race put his face in his hands and groaned. "That poor old guy, he'd prob'ly been saving it for years..." He looked up with a sudden nostalgic grin. "It sure tasted like it, anyway."

"It was fucking delicious!" Raven annoucned happily. "Honestly I dunno how we didn't die cause that was a lot of wine, before I knew what happened me and Race was stumbling down the street and I was singing to him in Italian."
She rolled her eyes. "EVidently I'd lost my ability to speak english."

"They were very nice songs," Race said gallantly. "The one about the two brothers who got so drunk they slept with each other's wives--that was...almost as classy as opera, really." He gave Rae a sidelong glance. "And then we ran into the mobsters."

"because Racetrack naturally owed them money," Raven shot Race a glare. "I managed to convince the boys to play a game of chance...this is my drunken wisdom, whoever made it up to the roof of the building first won. Race would have to pay if they made and if we made it they'd leave him alone..."
"This was not the smartest idea I'd ever come up with because I figured we'd win!"

"So they run inside to find the stairs up to the roof," Race said. "And Raven here starts trying to actually climb up the side of the building." He closed his eyes. "She got all scraped up and fell on the ground and pouted for about thirty seconds 'fore I managed to drag her away. By then, the mobsters had made it to the roof, but we were running for our lives with a great head start, so it was kind of a good plan after all."

"What can I say? I tend to be brilliant without knowing it, so now we're running and it starts raining." Raven started laughing. "And I gotta play in the rain, naturally...I tackled Racetrack into the mud."

"So I thought about killing her, but then Spot would've killed me. And I was also kind of concerned that one of the little birds who obviously had to be watching us would report that I was rolling around in the mud with Spot's girlfriend. Finally, I figured that the best plan overall was to get so dirty that no one would recognize us, so I threw mud at her, and she threw mud at me, and we didn't call a truce until we both noticed we were damn hungry."

"So then I say to him that I want Spaghetti A LOT of Spaghetti...and this is when we ended up on the horse." Raven turned to Racetrack.
((I DUNNO))

"There must've been a carriage accident, or it was tethered outside a shop and broke free, or something. We weren't exactly thinking about where it came from, 'cause, y'know, we were drunk off our asses and running from the Mob and covered in mud. So we saw it trotting down the street, and I just said, 'And spaghetti you shall have,' and grabbed the horse's bridle, and gave Rae a lift, and climbed up after her...next think you know, we're galloping through the streets of Little Italy in search of spaghetti."

"Now everything is fucking closed, which is pissing me off because I was so hungry! I also wanted more wine and Race kept tell ing me I couldn't have any." Raven was laughing, "So Race is leading the noble steed all through little italy screaming "I WANT SPAGHETTI!"
