WHAT ever
WHERE ever
WHEN Day 73 maybe? probably. that was a long blizzard tho.

[EYYYY IT FINALLY STOPPED SNOWING!!!

In fact, the roads are clear, even. Maybe the weird mechanical noises that could be heard in the wee hours of the morning were snowplows...? Sure. That seems like the reasonable explanation.

Seems like time... for a SNOWBALL FIGHT.

In fact, a snowball may be coming at you right now. Who threw that??

...did... anybody throw that?]

The uh, fancywork?

[mindinthegittern]

Yeah.

[selfidentitytheft]

I have a uh, baseball bat that I wrapped? It was leftover from that zombie outbreak, it came out pretty nice.

[mindinthegittern]

[laughs]

I definitely would like to see that.

[selfidentitytheft]

It's ornamental and functional!

[mindinthegittern]

Can't go wrong with that.

[selfidentitytheft]

I can go get it if you want? You're not exactly hard to track back down.

[mindinthegittern]

Sure! Just follow your nose, or the sound of me yelling.

[selfidentitytheft]

Can do~

[mindinthegittern]

[waves goodbye as he walks off]

[selfidentitytheft]

[will track him down later, with a new face on and bat in hand]

[mindinthegittern]

[hang on, give him a second]

—hello again!

[selfidentitytheft]

Yo! Good eye.

[mindinthegittern]

The bat helped.

[selfidentitytheft]

Yeah, y'know, I would hope for there not being a ton of dudes walking around carrying bats for no reason.

[mindinthegittern]

May I see it?

[selfidentitytheft]

Oh, yeah, 'course.

[offers the bat with a small flourish. it's a plain wooden bat, but the grip has been braided over with white cotton cord and tiny elaborate knots]

[mindinthegittern]

Oh, wow. This is neat work.

[selfidentitytheft]

Thanks! It's all by hand too. All tied on, not glued on.

[mindinthegittern]

How long does something like this take you?

[selfidentitytheft]

Uhh this took me a couple weeks 'cause I wasn't working on it all the time, but I could finish this much in a couple hours.

[mindinthegittern]

You've really had a lot of practice, eh?

[selfidentitytheft]

Years and years!

[mindinthegittern]

You really don't think there'd be a market here?

[selfidentitytheft]

Maybe, I mean, I can wrap or weave just about anything... I sold some, uh, keychains, but this bigger stuff isn't cheap, so.... I dunno, I worry it might be too niche?
