08 | The Way

[nirvananation]

[Thailand is coming back from the store with (2) bags. One of them has some relatively nice looking dress clothes. The other...has a poodle skirt. A very cute, pink  poodle skirt. He looks very pleased.
As he makes his way home, Thailand--Who isn't paying attention--runs into a pole, dropping the bags and their contents all over the sidewalk.]

Ana...

[staring

at the poodle skirt]

[nirvananation]

[Spots! And...doesn't think anything is strange.]

Ah! Khun Hong Kong! [aaand he picks up the skirt, dusts it off, and proceeds to fold it nicely.]

How are you on this day?

[scentofbauhinia]

Fine.

[moving forward now to help him pick up the rest of the clothing he's dropped]

You?

[yeah still eying that skirt bro]

[nirvananation]

I am alright. Trying to find things to do.

[And he finally notices that look bro.]

Is it torn? [Brb, inspecting the dress.]

[peonymarket]

[Guess who is strolling by right about now, more interested in your face than what you're carrying.]

...Thailand?

[nirvananation]

[He sees China and beams. Man, he should really start paying attention to the phones.]

Khun China! You have returned!

[peonymarket]

I was never here to begin with.

[Okay, that came out more curt than he intended. After a moment of hesitation, he reaches down to pick up the fallen items, and his voice is much gentler when he next speaks:]

I didn't know you were in this place as well.

[nirvananation]

[Thailand knew people often forgot their time in Mayfield, so he doesn't push it. Instead he just smiles lightly and moves to help pick up his mess.]

My apologies, I must have been mistaken.

[nirvananation]

[He doesn't notice, he's too busy inspecting the poodle skirt, making sure it's not ripped anywhere.]

[lotuslife]

[o-oh Thailand I wondered when your crossdresser tendencies would emerge.

she makes a 'phone call' on her high heel, then puts it back on and walks up to him.]

Excuse me, sir!

[nirvananation]

[He turns, surprised at being called 'sir'. No really what.]

Ah...Is something the matter, Khun Vietnam?
