part 296 piles of hay

[aphanon_meme]

Meme, I expect all this hay to be spun into gold by tomorrow morning! Or I'll chop your head off. ... maybe. I'm loving the new show Once Upon a Time, and man, do I love Rumpelstiltskin. It's always been one of my favorite fairy tales - a miller's daughter in distress, a king that knows how to court a woman, and I mean, why does Rumpelstiltskin

You ain't been goin' around flappin' your yap about our private goings-on, have you.

[He might have overheard part of what was said to that eyes.gif. Maybe.]

[kingkongeriget]

[but he can't!]

[flails his arms and legs around instead]

Dunno! Sounded like ya not really bein' mad t'me!

[iceandheather]

[Scoots out of the way of the flailing, and just ends up sitting on him more securely]

Already said I warn't mad. Said you were annoying. Should clean out yer damn ears one've these days.

[kingkongeriget]

I know! That's what I said! That ya ain't mad, an' 'm annoying!

[iceandheather]

... Well. 'Least you admit it.

[Reaches over and musses at his hair a bit]

Square, then.

[kingkongeriget]

[settles down to be touched]

Sure, square.

Lil' more t'the back?

[iceandheather]

[Rolls his eyes a bit... but does as he was asked. Enjoy your petting, Denmark.]

Now, what was this I heard before. 'Bout confusing. 'N complicated.

[kingkongeriget]

[he will!]

[...]

Ya mean with th'lil' gif? Was askin' 'bout...ya know. 'bout us goin' back so far. Was tryin' t'explain stuff, some, ya know?

[iceandheather]

I see.

[Pets, and toys with Denmark's hair, and thinks.]

Guess complicated ain't a bad way've puttin' it. On account've that bein' how it was.

[And still is.]

Re: /Laaaate

[kingkongeriget]

[and how!]

'zactly! 'specially the workin' stuff out part, 's what they were askin' 'bout, when stuff started. Ain't easy t'give'm a short answer t'that.

Re: /Laaaate

[iceandheather]

[Stops for a moment. And thinks.]

[Then just continues, slipping his fingers through the strands]

Ain't sure y'could really put a date to all that, anyhow. Was like...

[Gropes for the word]

More like a continuum. Wasn't it.

Re: /Laaaate

[kingkongeriget]

[shuts his eyes, that feels good]

Yeah, yeah! Like a continuum! So I jus' told 'em it was confusin' an' complicated. Didn't think'a callin' it a continuum. Probl'y woulda been easier!

[iceandheather]

It would've.

[Lets his fingers trail a bit. Strokes them along his cheek. Then just resumes petting again.]

Still think 's confusing?

[kingkongeriget]

Mm. A little. Ain't as bad as it used t'be. Don't gotta worry 'bout th'same politics. An' th'rules ain't th'same now. 's easier.

Reckon 's jus' you what's confusin' now!

[iceandheather]

Reckon you're just easily confused.

[Because as far as Norway feels, everything makes perfect sense.]

[kingkongeriget]

Only 'cuz yer easily annoyed!
