The party...

[tomdubois]

Well, I, um... I don't know whether it was worse or better than I expected. I couldn't explain it exactly to my wife... Um, I mean... It was... an interesting experience. And I certainly don't want to sound ungrateful for being invited. It was... very, very... different. Heh.

I suppose I should apologize for freaking out a little bit. I just hadn'

Comments

At least someone found it relaxing.

And, believe you me, I didn't want to show up like that... Hopefully I won't have to deal with it for awhile. Hm. Shame that Miss Fujiko doesn't also take such an interest in the boys.

[tomdubois]

Oh, um. I understand... I think.

It was very good to meet you, too, Mr. Venture. Or, uh, Rusty. Heh. I mean, despite, um... I mean, really.

[dr_t_s_venture]

It's Dr. Venture...

And, yeah, it was a real slice.

[tomdubois]

Oh, right. Doctor. Of course.

[tomdubois]

Oh... Wait, you mean... There's more of them??

How many octopus, uh, children do you have?

[gooddoggy]

You.... uh... you have an octopus child?

[mineandfine]

Oh gucci is a good girl. She's gotten a little...big but that's what happens when you grow up. I thought I'd never see her again, so happy we've got her back!

[tomdubois]

Oh, well, that's... sweet. I'm glad someone is happy about it.

[peter_white]

Ew...those octopus things are back? I thought they were like...dead or something.

Anyways, it was nice meeting you, even if we didn't get to talk much because of people whipping out guns. I swear we can't go one party without someone nearly killing someone else.

[tomdubois]

Well, I was glad to make your acquaintance, as well.

... W-wait. People are normally handling guns and trying to kill people at... parties??

[peter_white]

Yeah. I suspect most of them weren't hugged enough as children or something like that.

We're lucky enough to have a necromancer at our disposal, though. He can usually fix things if anything ever goes horribly wrong.

[not_a_bumblebee]

Octopuses? Was there another ones with her?

[tomdubois]

Well, I only saw the one... Heh.
