RP: What Gets Me Through the Day

tanarillThat, and tomorrow is Thursday. I <3 Thursdays because they live in the second half of the week and are the day before Friday . . . which, we hope, does not mean that we are going to Shul this week.
Things:
Mother is back from Florida. Grandma is recovering, and has managed to make it to the bottom end of the normal weight range. She needs to eat more, but unlike our Lacha, has no one to run intervention . . .
Father is in South Africa, making sure that diesel engines start in the heat. Hopefully, this will not be like Last Time. He came back with some wonky South African disease that got everyone sick.
Title: Vault
Fandom: ASRP; DP is (C) Bitch Hartman
Rating: PG-13
Warnings: Dan opens his mouth
Getting past Mama’s guards hadn’t been difficult, especially after what Heres Tanarill had taught him, and the advanced security systems–designed to protect from the worst ghosts could throw at them and come through unscathed–had been only slightly harder. Now, Dan stood in front of the last door before what he hoped was Mama’s vault. It was quite large, at least a foot of lead. For reasons that he’d never been able to figure out, and Heres Tanarill had tried to explain more than once, it was . . . uncomfortable to phase through lead.
On the other hand, lead reacted to an ectoplasm punch in the same way as everything else.
Dan stepped over the cherry-red metal and stopped.
“Oh, fuck no,” he said. And then, because he was Dan Phantom and he didn’t run, damnit, he turned and backtracked a bit through Mama’s security, before opening a portal and going home to find, and preferably jump, Clockwork.
Behind him, gleaming slightly under the soft yellow lamps, Tressla’s Mighty Spear of Divine Penetration sat on its pillow and sighed to itself. “Damn.”
I would also have posted Drunk!Dan but it happens after a snippet that I have to write for it to make sense that hasn't been written yet. Because it's being mean to me ^^;; Dan needs to swear more, Heres Tanarill isn't being nearly bitchy enough (even though she is depressed) and neither of them are understanding each other. And they have to for it to work.
Damn. Any of you ever have this trouble with your characters when writing them?
