part 264 little houses on the prairie

[aphanon_meme]

These past few weeks I've been reading/re-reading Dear America books, and I'm now on one about a prairie teacher in Nebraska... it's reminding me of being little and playing teacher! What was your favorite game when you were younger? Mine is a tie between Peter Pan, where I'd always be Wendy about to walk off the plank and make my brother's friend

[ Okay. Takes notice of your attire. ]

........ O...kay...

[dam_stijl]

[sees iceland]

[holy shit iceland's alive - he doesn't even hear what is said]

[he just smashes him into a hug for the splittest of seconds, then backs away and grabs his shoulders, kinda shaking him without meaning to]

You made it. Fuck. What - [lets go and snaps back to normal] You're okay, then.

[lookscold]

[ OKAY. ICELAND... DIDN'T EXPECT THAT. It was short, but it was a hug. THAT WAS DEFINITELY A HUG. And then the shaking. Oh god-- ]

O-Of course--

[ Clears his throat. ]

Of course I'm okay!

[dam_stijl]

Yeah... Yeah.

I - uh - I heard otherwise. [goddamn, ned, what's your deal. straighten up]

Anyway. Tell me about that shit. How'd ya get out?

[lookscold]

Nor told me some Anons were spreading some words around...

I had to eat a ton of licorice and find a key in the licorice... Then take the bomb and blow up a wall with it while I hid behind a wheelie cart.

... It sounds a lot more comical now that I'm out of the situation.

[dam_stijl]

They were. [grumps]

[listens...]

[almost laughs] You had to eat a ton of lic - [whooooa wait]

Yeah, it's funny. [now] But your fuck buddy or whatever. Hong Kong. He's kinda in some shit now, right.

[lookscold]

H-HE'S NOT MY FUC-- HE'S NOT! HE'S NOT THAT!

[dam_stijl]

[rolls his eyes]

Whatever.

Point is, the kid's stuck underground and no one can find him.

[lookscold]

It's true!

[ DON'T ROLL YOUR EYES AT HIM HE IS VERY FLUSTERED AT SUCH AN ACCUSATION. ]

... Underground, huh? No way I can help, then...

[ WORRIED. ]

[dam_stijl]

[he's just gonna drop the fuckbuddy thing, as much fun as as it is to fluster iceland - it's business time]

I dunno. [frowns] He's still got that fucking collar on, right. And you still have the key [....] ...right.

[lookscold]

I already tried to unlock it with the key before. Didn't work.

...

It's probably still in the puffin costume.

[dam_stijl]

[runs a hand over his face]

So you don't have the damn key.

[lookscold]

I never said I didn't keep the costume, you know.

[dam_stijl]

[blinks]

Oh. So you do.
