[weavethebonds]

There's some youthful looking girl with goggles and the outfit a complete shut-in might think was stylish loading crates of what appear to be volatile chemicals into a little red wagon.

She looks familiar.

*guess who's crouching and staring at the wagon outta nowhere like a nosy guy.*

... Y'sure those're safe to transfer in a wagon. They look unsafe.

[weavethebonds]

"That's funny, I seem to have forgotten the part where I asked you to nose into my business, Jughead."

She shuts the flaps of the box so you can't snoop.

"And they're perfectly safe as long as you're me, which I am."

[3_s33s_what]

Oh I dunno, dangerous lookin' chemicals, always seems a good thing t' stick ones nose int'.

[weavethebonds]

"Maybe you wanna end up as a frog. Or a newt. Then you'd be as slippery as your demeanor suggests."

[3_s33s_what]

Oh, no, don't do that. Whatever'll I do.

*says that really flatly*

[weavethebonds]

"Hop around and then live in a jar or aquarium, probably."

She starts to walk with the wagon.

"I'd put some yen in the tank so you felt comfortable though."

[3_s33s_what]

Oh, well thanks f'that. If I became a newt, maybe 'd act like a pretend dragon or somethin' instead an' horde it all.

So why th' return 'f th' goggles?

[weavethebonds]

"I feel like they contain all my motivation."

[3_s33s_what]

An' th' outfit?

[whitrthanwhite]

::Follows behind you, all nosy.::

[weavethebonds]

"...Why are you following me, Shiroko."

She sounds so huffy.

[whitrthanwhite]

... How do you know my name!?

[weavethebonds]

She turns and stares.

And stares.

And stares.

[whitrthanwhite]

What!? I've never seen you before in my life!

[weavethebonds]

"...I'm Susan."

[whitrthanwhite]

... Susan who?

[weavethebonds]

"SHIROKO YOU KNOW WHO I AM WE'VE BEEN FRIENDS FOR HALF A DECADE."

Somewhere, her screech is making Shikou flail at his ears and cry.

[pureplainpatron]

...I don't think METI would approve of this.

Seems a bit. Hazardous.

What are you even making?

::Oh look, it's that condescending jerk in pink. ...actually in pink today, because why not?::

[weavethebonds]

"Nothing specific, I'm restocking, and dear god have you ever purchased another shirt? Do you have multiples."

She seems aghast that you're still wearing it.

"At least you never 'upgraded' to sequins."

[pureplainpatron]

...ah, so you're... Susan.

Actually, I was a lot more... drab for quite a while. My wives insisted that I return to 'Erland Classic'. ...not unlike what you've done, I think.

...also I don't think I'd ever do sequins... besides maybe for a bit thing here or there. Even I have my limits.

[weavethebonds]

"..What do you mean 'oh you're Susan'. Were you assuming I was some unprotected girl you could hit on?"

She stares blankly.

[pureplainpatron]

I had a hunch, but I wasn't sure. And I'll have you know that I've become fairly discerning over the years.

...that aside, what are you restocking for?

[weavethebonds]

"I dunno. Maybe I'll build grow an island and build a twisting witch tower on it."

[pureplainpatron]

So you can become even more shut away than you already are?

Sadly the private island thing doesn't really help instill fear in the rabble.

[weavethebonds]

"I don't want to instill fear in anybody, I just want a twisty witch tower. and I'm not a shut in!"
