VHLM Headquarters - A Moment In Time

[jRuutu 2,475]

At the VHLM headquarters, Spartan in his favorite Connor McDavid jersey is walking towards the bathroom.  Perhaps from being intoxicated, or perhaps from the pressure of carrying the future of the league on his shoulders, Spartan stumbles and wobbles from side to side as he walks past a collection of retired jerseys and paintings of historical VHLM moments. Followed by a strong smell cocktail of Old Spice, strawberry vape, and sweat, Spartan steps into the bathroom.

 

"Gustav, sup brah?!?", yells Spartan as he slowly moves to the urinal next to the one Gustav is using. "You should have seen how me and the boys shredded in Apex. I got a narly kill streak. I swear if I practiced hard every day I could compete professionally".

 

Gustav looked uncomfortable, perhaps due to Spartan's decision to use the urinal right next to the one Gustav is using, or perhaps because Spartan dropped his pants to his angles before he tucked his Connor McDavid jersey under his chin.  "Hey, Spartan", nods Gustav. "I know today is Thursday and we have that "Season 100"- meeting with the VHL and VHLE people, but do you think it's okay if I skip it? I gotta head back home and take care of Susan, she is ill".  Unsure how Spartan would react, Gustav waited a few seconds before turning his head to his left to see if Spartan was able to tell Susan is not a real person but a musical instrument and that the need to rush back home in the middle of the day was due to having to practice for the upcoming debut performance of his one-man tribute band, Gustav plays bass and sings.

 

Spartan, mesmerized by the urinal cake looking like an apple, felt a sudden wave of anxiety overcome him: "Who is Susan?".  Not able to remember who Susan was or if he had ever even met Susan, Spartan nervously glanced at Gustav. Judging by the tone of Gustav, Susan sounded important. "Go ahead, brah," said Spartan.  "Family is the most important thing. Truth be told, I was also thinking about heading out early. Me and the boys are going to get together to discuss tactics for Apex, so I can get my K/D rating up. We are going to team up in public servers and demolish randoms - they never know what hit them!"

 

Pleased that Spartan didn't ask any follow-up questions Gustav smiled at Spartan as he started to head towards the door. On his way out Gustav said: "I will call the VHL and VHLE people to cancel the meeting. I will say today is not a good day. But we really need to come up with some great ideas on how to celebrate Season 100".

 

Spartan was still so caught up in thinking about Susan that he heard only half of what Gustav said. Spartan's thought process returned to the present moment with the visual realization that Gustav was not wearing any pants at all as he walked out of the bathroom.  "Was Gustav not wearing any pants when I walked in?", thought Spartan to himself as he caught a glimpse of Gustav's bare ass.

 

On his way out of the bathroom, Spartan looked visibly happy, he was going to leave the office early today to meet with his friends.  Gustav was already out of the building by the time Spartan was done in the bathroom, Gustav also looked joyful knowing that today he was going to get some quality practice hours in.

Replace the McDavid jersey with Crosby and switch out strawberry for orange or berry mist and this might be 100% accurate! I won't even get into the urinal habits though lmfao

No pants + bailing on plans = dominance asserted

 

I wish I had a tribute band; no one wants to hear me play anything sadly.
