part 343 pieces of discounted Halloween candy

[aphanon_meme]

stock up while it's on sale! Anyway: I. can't. believe. it. I really can't. I mean, I do believe it. So I guess I can believe it. But STILL. I've been saying all month that we'd get doodles, if anything, but--AN EVENT. An event! <>A real event. With ghosts! And mysterious happenings! And Hong Kong being a butt! I can't wait to see what happens next!

Enjoy part 343!

Yeah, calling me 'penal colony' all the time like I don't have a name!

[Normally after he's kicked him but hey, who's keeping track.]

[fruited_plain]

[Oh. Ooooh.]

He's just giving you a hard time! I'd call you names too if you kicked my seat for hours.

[She remembers that car ride. She grins and ruffles his hair.]

[firstfleet]

[Wrinkles his nose at that and the hair ruffling. He remembers that road trip too.]

Should be more like ya, don't have a stick up your...

[Okay even he feels awkward saying that to a lady so he cuts himself off.]

[fruited_plain]

What's that?

[She laughs anyway and stops.]

He'll grow out of it! You're kinda different all grown up too you know.

[... Naaah he's pretty much the same.]

[firstfleet]

Ya know what I meant!

[Don't make him say it!]

Really? Ya know me when I'm bigger? How big am I???

[She's the first person who's mentioned she knows him as an adult. He hadn't even thought about it before but now he's curious.]

[fruited_plain]

Oh he's about this tall [gestures] and kinda stocky. Or muscly! Probably muscly.

[You've got a ways to grow kiddo.]

[firstfleet]

Really??

[He grows up to become a giant? This is great! Because right now he's a scrawny shortarse.]

What am I like? Don't start likin' gals do I?

[Pulls a face, he doesn't understand why adults coo over each other like that.]

[fruited_plain]

You're a lot like you are now, I think! Maybe more mature. [A little. She bets he'd kick her seat for hours too if he wanted to get on her nerves.]

Well, yeah! Most people do! And guys too I think but that's uh a little more than you need to know!

[firstfleet]

Still have crocs and critters and everything? Good!

[He's going to complain about it until he hears the bit about liking men too, which throws him a little and he tilts his head.]

...I become a sailor?

[That's the only context he's heard of that happening in. He probably shouldn't even know that much at his age.]

[fruited_plain]

Still as deadly as ever!


A sailor? What's that got to do with anything?

[firstfleet]

[Laughs at that. Always a point of pride.]

Cause sailors go around doing...

[Makes an obscene hand gesture which he really shouldn't know. Growing up in a port town without Puritans is fun!]

[fruited_plain]

[Reaches out and makes him stop.]

Okay, okay, I get it! You don't have to spell it out for me!

[How does he know that?!]

[firstfleet]

[Stops and smiles at her. She brought it up, not him!]

'pparently pirates do too!

[She doesn't want to know. His people are a rough bunch.]

[fruited_plain]

I didn't need to know that! I don't know if you're on boats and stuff, stop asking! Go talk to him yourself or something!

[firstfleet]

[Tilts head again. Why is she annoyed? Then shrugs, because he can do that!]

'lright. Bye! Cheers for the sweets!

[And off he goes to find his adult self to go ask him some awkward questions. Possibly. Until something else distracts him.]
