BACKDATED TO YESTERDAY;

[kalinda]

[Here, journal. Have the most annoyed accusatory tone in the world as sticky fingers attempt to turn the pages.]

...and who was the gentleman with which I was discussing Peeps the other day?

Comments

[kalinda]

Regardless, it's weird how it happened.

[hellshaped]

[.... WAS SHE FUCKING WITH HIM ...................]

... yeah.

Maybe other people were talking about them too, though.

[kalinda]

[There's a grin in her tone now.]

Perhaps it was our combined efforts.

[hellshaped]

[yep, she was definitely fucking with him. RUDE...]

Well, as long as you're willing to take part of the blame.

[kalinda]

Does this make me a wielder of magic?

[hellshaped]

[Now it's his turn to have a grin creeping into his voice.]

Sure. As much as anybody else in this joint.

[kalinda]

I'm not sure I am worthy of such prowess if I'm still very dubious about it.

[hellshaped]

Still dubious? You're in a magic castle, baby. You should probably get used to it as soon as you can.

HI THERESA

[kalinda]

It's growing on me, I'll admit. I don't like it, but... Obviously there's not much of a say with that.

HI ASHLEY

[hellshaped]

I think it's pretty normal not to like it. If I were you, I'd worry if you ever start.

[kalinda]

Like I've been telling people, it's not exactly a "thing" back home.

[hellshaped]

You must come from one of those "normal" worlds I've heard so much about.

[He's joking ...]

[kalinda]

Does that mean you're from a "make believe" world?

[hellshaped]

No, it's pretty real. Just weird.

[kalinda]

I like to think that my world, though considerably "normal" compared to most, is sufficiently weird on its own.

[hellshaped]

It'd probably be boring otherwise.

But not boring enough where walking marshmallows are welcome.

[kalinda]

At least it's been interesting.

[IF NOT A STICKY SITUATION.]

[hellshaped]

[STICKY... BECAUSE...... yes.]

That's one way of putting it.

[kalinda]

[Kalinda briefly thinks of these puns. She'll never say them, of course. Because... Yeah.]

How did you manage?

[hellshaped]

I just stayed in my room. That usually works with this kind of thing.

[kalinda]

Are you sure none stuck in? They're pretty small.

[hellshaped]

[A pause.]

Thanks for that.

[kalinda]

They're probably in between your sheets. Like bed bugs.

[hellshaped]

God damn. I'm not going to be able to sleep now.

[kalinda]

Pretty twisted way to get breakfast in bed...

[hellshaped]

The worst way.
