"I'm pretty sure if you ask 'Where's Michigan?' anyone can point to it."
Ah've known a few folk tha've pointed at Wisconsin actually.

[talktodahandeh.livejournal.com]

But does it look like a big mitten that you can see from space? Noooo.

[devilwentdownto.livejournal.com]

He shrugged.
They didn' really think of Michigan... let alone tha' yer shaped like a' mitten.

[talktodahandeh.livejournal.com]

Man, unless you fail with geography, how do ya not know? I mean, look? [] If ya ask someone from my place where they're from, they'll point somewhere on their hand. Liiiike, here's Detroit.

[]

And here's Traverse City.

[]

Not too hard ta figure out, right?

[devilwentdownto.livejournal.com]

He blinks.
Well... Geography ain't really tha'... stressed.

[talktodahandeh.livejournal.com]

Ya mean if someone asked, "What's that place shaped like a mitten?", they wouldn't say Michigan?

[devilwentdownto.livejournal.com]

Never really... associated ya with a mitten. Mostly jus' tha' one up there next ta tha lakes.

[talktodahandeh.livejournal.com]

What if I said yer the thing on top of the one shaped like a thumbs-down?

[devilwentdownto.livejournal.com]

Tha... wha'? Ya mean Florida? Florida don' look like a thumbs down.

[talktodahandeh.livejournal.com]

Yeah, it does. Look. [] Florida. Thumbs-down. Same shape.

[devilwentdownto.livejournal.com]

He blinks.
yeah... they... don' really call it a thumbs down.

[lakesyaknow.livejournal.com]

...you mean a penis

[talktodahandeh.livejournal.com]

...

[devilwentdownto.livejournal.com]

He blushes.
Y-yeah...

[lakesyaknow.livejournal.com]

I've seen better though, right Will?

[devilwentdownto.livejournal.com]

He blushed and looked away

[escanabas.livejournal.com]

[ somewhat playful shove. ]

[talktodahandeh.livejournal.com]

[]

[escanabas.livejournal.com]

F-fat.

[ Looking about for your well-being after your guts were ripped out a few weeks ago? Totally not. ]

[talktodahandeh.livejournal.com]

Twig.

[]

[escanabas.livejournal.com]

...Uh. Um...

[ he's forgiven everybody (yes, even jake) for hanging him on the grounds that he can't remember anything but them crowding around him. on the other hand, he's not sure if the the squirming sensation he feels on his limbs when jake's around is discomfort or a call to punch him in the face (once) for being such a dick and then forgive him for real. griffin's death was pretty gruesome, is all.

also, cue jaye's hands nervously fluttering about as he struggles to remember the correct signs. finally, "how are you?" though he is terribly sure that is not what he wanted to say. hng. ]

[talktodahandeh.livejournal.com]

[]

I'm doing fine. You okay?

[escanabas.livejournal.com]

Ya.

[ quick to notice and quick to ignore, jaye simply gives him another shove; this time much more lighty as if to say 'being so sullen about it won't help anyone, dummy. you should let go' but not quite. ]

Uh... Um. [ his brow furrows ] Legs... green. Eh - uh. Orange...uh, b-black? Uh...

[talktodahandeh.livejournal.com]

[]

Ya talking abou' Halloween, Yooper?

[escanabas.livejournal.com]

[ FYI, you just ruined a tender moment with your swagger. But it's nice to see you've got dat swaggah back.

He nods. ]

Um. Croak.

[talktodahandeh.livejournal.com]

Oh! Like a frog! An' the thing about green legs or whatever. Gotcha.

[]

[escanabas.livejournal.com]

[ It must be the years he's spent around Jaye. That or he's good at hiding his smarts. Nods. ]

...Weird. Um. Twelve o' clock. Uh, croak.

[ ...Yeah, he's trying to tell Griffin that he turned into a frog. Not that he cares. Why is he telling him this? Shutting his mouth now and pressing both his palms flat against his forehead. ]

[talktodahandeh.livejournal.com]

[]

Like...Cinderella except with a frog?

[badgerbadassus.livejournal.com]

[ Have an extremely tired looking Gabe looking over your shoulder and the answers. ]

... I'm not a bird.

[talktodahandeh.livejournal.com]

[]

Never said ya were. What's up with you?

[badgerbadassus.livejournal.com]

[ Keep up the accent, have your eyes widened, play up the ignorance, and relax your face. You're almost exactly like him. ]

Ya kept writin' that I was a bird.

[talktodahandeh.livejournal.com]

[]

'Emo' not 'emu'.

1/2

[badgerbadassus.livejournal.com]

[ He stares at the paper a little longer, then stares back at him with a rather frustrated expression. ]

... Oh.

2/2

[badgerbadassus.livejournal.com]

[ He blinks, almost needlessly - everything is slightly exaggerated, but since most people don't pay attention to Gabe's actions either way he's likely able to get away with this. ] ... What's an emo?

[talktodahandeh.livejournal.com]

[]

Nothin' important.

[badgerbadassus.livejournal.com]

[ He full well knew the insult. Emotional. Mocking that hair over his face, Gabe wished there was some way to get rid of that disgusting humiliating marking on the side of his face. He hated how he looked, but he still continued to be sweet and smile.

Because that is what Gabe would do. Right? ]

Well, if ya say so...

[englassed.livejournal.com]

Jake got mad when he found out I was doing pot. Actually, I think he got angrier when he figured out I didn't know I was doing pot when I was doing it.

[ There was a point in there, somewhere. ] Uh, yeah -- so, how've you been?

[talktodahandeh.livejournal.com]

You did pot?

[]

Eh, I've been doin' okay. You?

[englassed.livejournal.com]

Well, yeah. But it was kinda complicated, yanno. All "put this in your mouth and inhale!" and "yeah, alright, whoa, this is kinda weird!" and... yeah. It was complicated. [ Ah, if we could live life in retrospect. ]

I got casinos! Well, I'm gonna have casinos -- they passed that, during the elections last week.

[talktodahandeh.livejournal.com]

I've only heard stuff from Tony and Ann Arbor, but Ann is so stoned half the time that it's hard to get anything out of her except stuff about nature an' peace-love an' all that.

[]

Really? They work pretty well up here when Ontario isn' tryin' ta get everyone to gamble on his side.

[ one/two ]

[englassed.livejournal.com]

I'm soooooooo excited for 'em! It sounds like it'll be fun! Hmm. I wonder if they'd let me in, though...

[englassed.livejournal.com]

I thought Jake'd be unhappy about them, though. He's all 'Responsibility! Work! Save money!' and that stuff. But when I mentioned it to him he didn't seem to care all that much... I dunno.

[ Brainspark! ] I bet he secretly wants to gamble, too!
