RPF (historical): Karl & Friedrich

I think Z was responsible for this one too.


with friends like these
RPF. Karl Marx & Friedrich Engels. Rated PG. 118 words.


"How many friends have you consigned now to the gnawing of the mice?" Friedrich wonders, amused. Through the window he can see Ruge storming down the street, looking back only to gesture rudely at them. "Sometimes wonder when I myself will join them."

"I suppose when you can no longer steal your father's money for me," Karl replies, pouring them each a drink. "Come away from the window, Friedrich. Let us celebrate the purging of halfwits from our coterie."

Friedrich smiles as he takes the proffered glass. "Am I nothing more than a purse to you, Karl?"

"Don't ask questions to which you already know the answers." Karl raises his glass. "Cheers, moneybags."

"Cheers, you malcontent."

They drink.
