DAMALUR; Beloved, Let Me Hump You
"Oh God," she groans, around a mouthful of Phad Thai. "I need to get laid. Howard, not a word." The room freezes. Raj lets loose a squeak that has her wanting to apply WD-40 to his jaw. Leonard drops his spring roll. Sheldon swallows and says, "Are you masturbating regularly?" "Wow," Penny says. "I thought I could have this conversation, but it turns out I was completely wrong. Who wants to watch Star Wars?"

MONTYCROWLEY; waltz at the bar dimensional
"You don't have to, like, make out with her. Just go get your game on. It's cool." God, Howard's pretty good at this advice shit. Maybe he should just bow out of the game gracefully and retire. He can wear long velvet dressing gowns and dispense advice to distraught young fictional lesbians. He will be a guru, a modern-day guru with glorious hair, and he will often be holding a glass half-full of dark red wine. His mansion will have many cameras. For security purposes, of course.

MONTYCROWLEY; The Unified Theory of Everything [WIP, PART I]
"Mildew," he pronounces darkly. "Don't leave it in a pile in the laundry room, as you doubtless intended to do. It will create the ideal conditions for fostering the growth of mildew. Now, assuming you haven't changed your laundry habits to ones sane and logical, which is frankly unlikely, you'll have a load comprised of mixed materials i.e. denims and towels and delicate garments all roiled together in an indiscriminate orgy of poor planning, inevitable pilling and ill-advised synthetic fibers."    "I heard 'orgy,'" she offers.

JUNIPERLANE; The Parade Preoccupation
"You taste like toothpaste," she says after they break apart, like it's a surprise. He always does first thing in the morning. Early morning Sheldon is her favorite, hair sticking up in the back and a slight case of stubble. She wants to wake up next to him, hear his voice raspy with sleep.
