[Action- Greased Lightning Garage ]

[Pete's at work, impatient ever since receiving his proton pack. He can't wait to take it over to Ray's so that he, Ray, and Egon can start discussing business. He figures if he makes one hard sell today on a used car, he can cut loose a little early. Maybe you're a coworker who's noticed him looking at the clock one too many times, or maybe you're looking to buy a car today...]

[Action- Around Town ]

[After work, Venkman picks up his proton pack from home and is heading for Ray's when he begins to wonder if the thing even works. He flips it on, pulls the wand out from its holster, and aims for a nearby tree. A bright beam is shot out, scorching the side of the tree and peppering the thing with small flames.]

...It's still in one piece? I'm good.


[Action- Ray's House/1127 Taylor Road ]

[He's knocking on the door rapidly.]

Let me in, Ray... before I'm arrested for arson!

[Accepting the cigarettes and listening to what he has to say makes him immediately relax. Not that he was extremely tense to begin with, but any weird, nagging worry that might have been poking at the back of his brain completely disintegrated. He tapped at the pack of cigarettes and then pulled one out for himself, sticking it in his mouth.]

Don't get sentimental on me, Ray...

[But it's too late. Ray's passed him the lighter and he feels the cigarette drop from his mouth a bit. He hesitates before lighting it up.]

You're gonna make me say it... aren't you?

[not a tone he likes to hear. he winces.] Fair enough as long as you don't get silly on me.

[a curious pause followed by an equally inquiring head tilt.]

Say what?

[He sighs. There's a brief pause where he kind of shrugs to himself before continuing.]

I love you, man.

[He then lights up the cigarette and takes a long drag.]

[...okay, he can't keep a straight face anymore. but he doesn't want to laugh really loudly again like he did before because it might hurt Peter's feelings. oh god, so conflicted - !

so. instead, you get the biggest, gooniest smile ever that takes a very long time to form on his lips. it's kind of like a reverse Grinch smile.

it really speaks for itself.]

[And like nothing ever happened...]

Come on, let's go see what Egon's doing.
