"Why would you have ticks?"

"I went to the woods."

"What."

"The park...I said I was going for a walk in the woods."

"Oh. I thought, okay. Did you have fun?"

"Yeah, it was nice. Too far to make a habit but nice. I got lost but there were people taking pictures and cackling so I followed them out. Took until I was at the car before realizing one of them was making fun of me...but that's fine."

"Making fun of you for what?"

"My face was flushed when they saw me, and you know. Big cheeks all red..."

"Rude. Some people..."

"It's fine. I had fun. The geese were hissy but their babies were cute. I did yet cocoa. So...do you want brownie cookies for father's day?"

"I heard you can smoosh chocolate chip cookie dough and brownie dough together and they bake at the same time."

"You want a chocolate chip brownie cookie?"

"I'm just saying. It's a thing people do."

These two watching the Stanley Cup in rooms full of people that know them [presumably] very well

To hear Hidan was gone, though... it brought a shock to her. Maybe she misheard? Maybe the Jashinist had just gone on some mission far off and was a bit MIA for the moment? But as the days ticked by... it'd soon become apparent that Hidan was no longer around. How someone could have accomplished such a feat? She wouldn't ever be able to know. But the fact that it'd happened at all scared her.

And it left her with a bit of an aching hole in her chest.

He would be missed, and the base would be that much quieter without him. Maybe if she could find his remains... she would offer a prayer to him? Or perhaps leave an object he might have liked. After all, how do you pray for someone of a different religion? Was it really respectful, or was it an insult? [Death Meme]

It is absolutely not disrespectful to pray for someone in a language that isn’t their own. But really— if you ever find any remains— please burn them.

You don't know that you love me, you don't know, but I know that you do. You may think you're above me, what you think isn't always true. Don't try to debate me, you should know that I'm womanly (!) wise. Still, you try to manipulate me; you don't know where your interest lies. You don't begin to comprehend, you're just a game I like to play. You may think that we're friends, all right, but I won't let friendship get in my way. Indications indicate. Running the same riff will turn you around. Obviously you're going to blow it, but you don't know it. And you don't know where your interest lies.

When I was young, it seemed that life was so wonderful

A miracle, oh, it was beautiful, magical

And all the birds in the trees, well they'd be singing so happily

Oh, joyfully, oh, playfully watching me

But then they sent me away to teach me how to be sensible

Logical, oh, responsible, practical

Then they showed me a world where I could be so dependable

Oh, clinical, oh, intellectual, cynical

There are times when all the world's asleep

The questions run too deep

For such a simple man

Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned?

I know it sounds absurd

Please tell me who I am

I said, now, watch what you say, they'll be calling you a radical

A liberal, oh, fanatical, criminal

Oh, won't you sign up your name? We'd like to feel you're acceptable

Respectable, oh, presentable, a vegetable

Oh, take, take, take it, yeah

But at night, when all the world's asleep

The questions run so deep

For such a simple man

Won't you please (oh, won't you tell me)

Please tell me what we've learned?

(Can you hear me?) I know it sounds absurd

(Oh, won't you tell me) please tell me who I am

Who I am, who I am, who I am

'Cause I was feeling so logical
