WHAT in person for maximum wish power
WHERE by the lake or anywhere
WHEN night of day 140
NOTES it's a tanabata post!

[ Bamboo trees line the shore of the lake tonight, trailing papers from their branches. Each one is inscribed with a wish mysteriously left by...someone. Some of them are generic, like "world peace," and others are kind of weird and random, like, "fishes with candy scales."

But if you touch one, the text on it might turn into one of your wishes. Maybe it's something innocuous, but maybe it's one of your deepest secrets.

Well, maybe you don't go to the lake tonight. In any case, the stars are luminously bright overhead, and looking at them instills you with a strange sense of nostalgia... ]

[the very best]

Any ideas on what kind of nothing you want to get up to?

[coldhand]

I don't know. Maybe I'll catch up on my reading.

[starspangledman]

What have you been reading lately?

[coldhand]

Some weird knock off horror novels I picked up at the mall.

They're not all that good.

[starspangledman]

Doesn't sound like it. What are they about even?

[coldhand]

Different things. Usually there's some kind of giant rat or dog or something killing people.

[starspangledman]

Giant rats, really?

[coldhand]

Told you it was a weird knock off.

[starspangledman]

Sounds like it.

[coldhand]

But I think I'd like reading it a lot more with a pillow.

[spoilers: Steve is the pillow]

[starspangledman]

Well, I think I can help out there.

[coldhand]

I thought you might.

[starspangledman]

You know, you can always ask if you want that.

[coldhand]

How do you mean? A pillow?

[starspangledman]

A pillow, yeah.

[coldhand]

Weird thing to ask for.

[starspangledman]

Not that weird when you're sharing a bed.

[coldhand]

Guess you have a point there. Still...

Don't want to seem needy.

[starspangledman]

Doesn't seem needy to me.

[coldhand]

You're biased.

[starspangledman]

Maybe a little bit.

[coldhand]

Is it nice being needed?

[starspangledman]

[he flushes a little]

It's nice, yeah.

[coldhand]

[hums]

And if I wanted to do more than cuddle? Should I ask for that too?

[starspangledman]

You can always ask for that.
