"He held out a joint to Claire"... It'd sound a lot better if it's a continuation from the quote.. "...he said, holding out a joint to Claire." A little less blocky. The "breasts jiggle" bit could probably be more amusing/less awkward if you didn't use the word "jiggle." Why not just "bounce with her coughs" or something of the sort? Decent work. Keep at it.

Okay, suffice to say, I don't really understand the story. But it was hilarious all the same. It has this bizarre twist on the reality of it all. I have only minor suggestions. First, "Dave grunted noncommittally." I'm pretty sure that's not a word. And I'm also pretty sure you weren't trying to suggest that he wasn't committed to his grunt. I don't think you need to have a qualifier for this statement. Dave grunting alone is indication enough of his not wanting to play the game. Second, ther...
