Ronnie: RG says hi.

Allegra: Say hi back

Allegra: Where’s the album at?

Ronnie: Progressing.

Allegra: Need a currently unemployed sound guru?

Ronnie: If it was up to me, totes. On my solo stuff, always. BHalo allegedly a demoncracy.

Ronnie: democracy.

Ronnie: Actually, spelling fail might be more accurate.

Ronnie: So many opinions. Ear defenders a must.

Ronnie: And largely noise for nothing. Everyone knows who has the final say.

Allegra: Let me guess. Is it the drop-dead sexy arsehole by any chance?

Ronnie: Babe, he’s really not.

Ronnie: He’s actually pretty sound.

Allegra: You’re only convinced of that cos you fancy him.

Allegra: Has he not screwed you yet? I’m told you only have to spend a short time in close proximity, and he magics your pants off.

Ronnie: Hasn’t magicked mine. I must not be sexy enough.

Allegra: Boy, you’re plenty sexy.

Allegra: We both know you’re not the issue. He’s putting it elsewhere.

Ronnie: Yeah, him and Luthor are at it like bunnies.

Ronnie: The Duracell sort.

Allegra: Not what I meant. And you’re not that clueless.

Ronnie: Babe, I…

Ronnie: I think they mostly take long walks together.

Ronnie: And have weird convos where they talk in half sentences.

Ronnie: And hug and swear a lot.

Ronnie: But I’m sure he misses you.

Ronnie: Send him more pussy pics. They always make him laugh.

Allegra: He’s not responding atm.

31stJanuary

Luthor: Ronnie says you’re free at the moment. It that true?
