"Your wife tried to talk shit about you? Bloody hell what a bitch. Sorry but that's not fair on you, mate."
Mick shook his head and wondered what sort of woman would do that to her own husband. Vars was right to be angry at her. What a horrid bitch to tell shit to the press. For money maybe? He took another drink and swallowed.
"We nearly broke the bed in our hotel room once because it banged against the wall. Poor Weird and Gilly had to listen to us fucking. Mind you tartmouth is a screamer with Hunter so we're about even now I reckon."
A small giggle escaped Mick's lips at that. He couldn't be quiet if his life depended on it especially when Ziggy had his cock down his throat.
"Wife want me leave band. Know for long time but change when start get famous." Vars shrugged at it because there was nothing he could do and over time he would have to accept that.
"Hear Gilly all time. One first times he come home with Hunter, Rik working on things for exams and hotel cheap with thin walls. Dane walk right over bang on door and scream at them. Say beat him with books if his mouth didn't shut up." Vars laughed about that a lot. Rik was such a sweet kid until he got mad, then he would turn into a punk kid.
He kept on laughing and sipped at his drink. "Had fix bathroom door so Tom not yell. Don't know how broke it." He was too intent on Viktor to care how it got broken, though, probably when Viktor shoved him into it.
"Tell her to shove it, mate. It's what I would do if some girl told me to leave the band. There's no way I'd leave the Spiders. I suppose I'm lucky in that my girl is the lead singer of our band and I'm in love with him."
Mick's eyes misted slightly as he thought about Ziggy and all the times they had touched or brushed up against each other on stage. Now they were a pair and could kiss and be open with one another when they wished. Fuck society. Then Vars was telling about Gilly first meeting Hunter.
"He's such a fucking loud mouth tart. You should have heard him back at the hotel before the bands met up on tour. He kept yelling Ronno loves sausage everywhere and being a perverted tart trying to listen to me and Zig having sex. It's because he hid who he really was. He liked blokes but pretended he didn't. Even Weird felt sorry for him because we didn't know he was seeing this Hunter bloke until we found out at the bar."
At least now Gilly didn't have to hide anymore. As for Viktor and Vars? The punks breaking shit was enough to rile up Tom for sure. How much had the bands broke and smashed already? The bill must be stacking up something eye watering over the months they'd been together so far.
"Marry new man and start more on me." Vars is just grouching now and clearly getting irritated thinking about his ex wife. Though he starts laughing and looks over at Mick. "Wait see how mad when find out I have man now."
Vars was often able to see the good and humorous even in bad situations. It was a trait that kept him going even when he was depressed. Though, the topics are moving on to something less traumatic.
"Hard on people when not able to be self. Glad better." He hadn't missed how much the bandmates had found some safe space to be themselves. It was a good thing.
"Good point, mate. Once she finds out you've got a handsome punk for a boyfriend I bet that will piss her off. Gone on you. Viktor is a good lad really even if he can be a blockhead."
Mick knows the punk's heart is in the right place even if he's missing a few brain cells. Probably all that smoke inhalation due to his fire addiction. Bloody crazy. Each to their own though and the guitarist is happy for both Vars and his crazy Brit punk. They're happy and Trine could take a jump off a cliff.
"Yeah. Ziggy shrugs it off and sasses the assholes that insult him but I know it still hurts being insulted. That's why I want to be his shield and take care of him when he's at his lowest."
"Hope make her mad enough hurts." Vars is drunk enough now to laugh. "Like me. Good man, stubborn, strong bastard."
Vars was happy or at least happier. The other punk wasn't good at sharing and it was hard to know where he stood or where things were going. That was annoying but he would wait it out. The other punk was worth it.
"Ziggy strong girl." Vars gave Mick a friendly backhanded slap in the shoulder. "Good have strong girl. Man not shield for strong woman. Stand with strong woman. Together. Have back and Stardust have back."
"Stubborn, strong bastard? You got that right, mate. Both of you are bull-headed blokes but good here where it counts."
Mick pressing his palm against Vars' chest just over where his heart was. He then took a drink and sighed happily just thinking about Ziggy for a moment or two. His mind drifting due to the alcohol.
"Ziggy is such a strong girl. So fucking strong he could bitch sass any thug or anyone. We'll have each other's back for the end of time. Well, as long as I can still do the things like play guitar and be his boyfriend. Even as an old man in slippers I can still slug some bastard in the face."
"Hjerte matter most." Vars could easily agree with the Brit on that subject.
Vars listened and nodded. "Hope have each other long time." He sighed heavily. "Thought same Trine but Ziggy better woman than wife. He not... not have English.. forræder."
"Hjerte? Oh---does that mean heart? Sounds like it that's all. I get what you mean though."
Mick was trying to at least understand some of the Scandis when they used their own language since most of the time he just offered a blank expression. Then again, Mick's thick English Northern accent must sound foreign to most of the Hammers. Even drunk the Brit nodded and smiled as if through a blissful haze.
"A very long time. Sorry about your ex being a total bitch. That's not fair, mate."
"Yes." Vars nodded. "Sometimes not remember English word then hear and know."
The language barrier wasn't that bad but sometimes he was at a loss. That fact annoying him more than usual since there were a lot of English speakers around now and he wanted to be understood.
"Eh. She bitch. Try not care or think." That was the truth of the matter. He didn't want to care about it but sometimes he still did.
"You're doing fine, mate. I can understand you well enough. It's when you and the other Scandis go full tilt I'm just staring looking daft at you all."
The Spiders not being able to speak Norwegians, Danish, Finnish or Swedish. Understanding British accents must be tough for the Hammers too though and Mick knew this. As for Trine? She was an utter cow.
"Forget her. She isn't worth a thought. Let's get drunk and think of the good times ahead, eh? The tour and our company."
Mick clinked his glass against Vars' one and took another gulp.
"Spend years together. Now speak all Scandinavian. Sometimes hard follow Rik and Aarne when speak all language together." Even Vars got lost sometimes when Rik and Aarne started rambling quickly about something in more than one language.
Vars clinked glasses and downed his drink to pour another. Forgetting Trine existed was hard but the guitarist was right, better not to think about her. "Tour long. Glad for good bands to travel."
"I bet you blokes understand each other better in your own language than trying to understand us Brits. Accents are hard too. I try to understand Hunter when he's with Gilly but it goes over my head. He calls me a----what was it? Blomma? Whatever that is. I can't tell if he's being a cheeky bastard or he's complimenting me. Gilly seems to understand some of what Hunter says to him though. I think our tartmouth is learning the lingo."
Gilly speaking Swedish. Whatever next. That's all everyone needed---the tart tarting off in Swedish as well as English. Drinking from his glass, Mick nodded and smiled to Vars.
"Yes. The tour is long and it's good that it is so all the lads can spend time with their loved ones."
"Rik speak English good." Vars himself has a thick accent that probably makes his broken English even harder to understand for the Brits. He and Viktor had problems sometimes. "Call all Blomma. Mean flower like Brit use dear or some other words."
It was a friendly endearment, especially from Hunter. "Viktor learn. Teach Ziggy my language."
Vars didn't want to think about this. He was already getting so attached to Viktor and also not wanting to leave the bandmates he had been living with for years. "Most bands look for end of tour. We want not end, not go home."
"Yeah, you're right about that. The Dane does speak really good English and Billy seems to understand him alright. Those two are the Terror Twins, aren't they? At least that's what I've heard some call them. Cheeky buggers."
Mick smiled as Vars explained about Hunter's nicknames he gave people. It made sense and Gilly seemed to love the heeled boots of the Swede.
"Blomma means flower? That would make sense. The bloke is always calling us flowers or some other such name. You're teaching Zig your language too? How is that going? I can see Hunter sitting down with Ziggy too teaching him Swedish too."
All the Hammers teaching the Brits their languages. A cultural exchange for sure. Mick didn't think he'd be good at learning a foreign language but if Viktor could do it surely he could too? At the mention of the tour ending the guitarist's green eyes softened.
"I don't think any of us want the tour to end, mate. We've got lads with their hearts attached to their Northern lovers."
"Rik troublemaker, think taught Aarne be more one when they date when Hammers first together." Vars smiled though because he loved the boys, even Billy because he could see how happy the Brit made him.
"Your girl learn fast." Vars says with a smile. He thought Stardust was very good with languages but then he had heard Tom speak several too. Maybe it ran in the family? "Stardust learn all language. Say better speak in own language. Agree. Easier understand."
As far as Vars was concerned it made sense for everyone to learn their partner's language. The Hammers all spoke the Brit language so they could learn the Northern ones. Perhaps the others had an easier time than Viktor because their partners were better with English.
"We find way. Heart make world work." Vars knew this was true. In all his years with Trine he made sure things worked until she cut him out.
