WHAT in person
WHERE anywhere
WHEN Day 85

[ You were minding your own business when you hear a snap-click, like the handcuff sound in movies. Or you suddenly feel a soft collar slide around your throat. Wow, is this a dog collar? Anyway, possibly even more worrisome than that is that you're handcuffed to someone else OR someone else seems to have the other end of a leash attached to your collar in their hand. You are STUCK handcuffed to someone or leashed and collared (or. holding a leash, unable to let go) unless you complete a task. You just know which task because psychic messages are also part of QM life.

1. Kiss
2. Stab & Care -- there's some knives laying around but with them are first aid kits and you won't be free unless you take care of the wound you fiends
3. Hug
4. Punch
5. Share a secret/A confession ]

No. Something like this has happened before, here. Finding a key was easy, but finding the right key was something else.

[thegoodwidow]

There could be worse people to be handcuffed to.

i just fuckin realised hug was on the list KILL ME

[kimaris]

[ There's a pause, like he's distantly thinking, then a soft laugh. ]

There could be.

Re: i just fuckin realised hug was on the list KILL ME

[thegoodwidow]

[ time to reluctantly let go of hug though. very firmly: ]

I am glad to see you.

[ but ]

I must look rather unpresentable, though.

[kimaris]

That kind of thing doesn't matter to me. [ Look, he's being earnest instead of teasing her. For the moment. ] If anything, it truly proves that you've grown up.

[ or not...... ]

[thegoodwidow]

And maybe get you a hat.

[ she is joking, more but. ]

[kimaris]

[ Lightly touching his hair. ]

It's strange, not caring so much about this now.

[thegoodwidow]

[ a very small huff ]

Boys can look rugged and handsome but if I did it then people would just make fun of me.

[kimaris]

[ well


okay that's not a lie ]

Only after a certain age.

[thegoodwidow]

Women have power in their beauty as well.

[ unlike

dumb boys

you know ]

[kimaris]

Is that right? I suppose you'd know.

[ He can't talk, his type of girl isn't girly at all.................. why is he like this. None of the girls he's known, aside from TINY PRINCESS IMOUTO are like this!!! ]

[thegoodwidow]

You’re surprisingly bad at women, aren’t you.

[ honestly ... she doesn’t know a lot about his habits with women. A decade may have passed but she’s kept herself quite busy, maybe too busy. And. Well. Other things. Probably. ]

[kimaris]

I was always busy!

[ let him live (lol), he at least spoiled them???????? ]

[thegoodwidow]

If you want to be good with women, you make time for them no matter what.

[ teasing ]

[kimaris]

[ A sigh. ]

I'm sure Carta's said something similar.

[thegoodwidow]

When someone gives you good advice, it's best not to scorn it.

[ jsyk ]

[kimaris]

She was... [ Actually maybe he doesn't want to talk about this right now. That's a painful subject, too. ] This is—

[ He's stopping because look

the cuffs are clicking open.

Success. ]

[thegoodwidow]

[ belated

ah right. time. ]

. . . I'm sorry, you were saying?

[ going to reach down and remove the cuff from her wrist and then his ]

[kimaris]

[ Lightly rubbing at his wrist. ]

She certainly had advice for me, to say the least.

[thegoodwidow]

And yet you turned out like that.

[kimaris]

I'll always be like this.

[thegoodwidow]

You are a little old to change your ways.

[kimaris]

[ He tried, once. It didn't work out so well for him. It ended with him crying and yelling at McGillis Fareed about how he was on the verge of forgiving him. Rippo edgelord. ]

Are you calling me old now?

[thegoodwidow]

Aren’t you, though?

[kimaris]

[ He wants to argue, it's kind of second nature to, but instead he just sighs. ]

Have you found your apartment?
