[and then, a little later in the day...]

So the lawn flamethrower's kind of up in the air right now, but I'm definitely getting that tiny hoverboard. I was thinking of maybe when I drain the pool for fall of building a mini skatepark for him in it?

I mean, it can't be that difficult, right? The worst thing that happens is I flood a neighbor, and I think the house on my right's fucking empty anyway. Be less of a pain in the ass than switching the garden over to fall in this bitch Florida weather.

[What even is this girl...]

kaneda again

am i just that popular with you



whos the skatepark for

[deadtective]

[a miracle of modern magic, that's what.]

STOP ANSWERING THESE




It's for my owl. He's getting a hoverboard so he can do sick tricks in literal midair.

[rassera]

[CAN'T STOP YOU'RE TOO EASY, HAZEL.]






i want to see that right the hell now

[deadtective]

You have given me absolutely no reason to go to the effort of putting his skate gear on and filming it.

[at least say please, you little fuck]

[rassera]

do you need a reason to get an owl on a hoverboard

[Sorry he never says please!! Or sorry.]

[deadtective]

I don't have the hoverboard yet, just his regular one. It's still being built.

[then you're gonna have to coax her a little better!!]

[rassera]

then the regular one

unless you doubt the owls talents

[deadtective]

Sit your ass down.

[and there's maybe five minutes between that and her next reply, which is video! amazing!

...well, it'd be amazing if it were actually of her, but it's not. instead it shows an empty hallway which quickly becomes not so empty as a snowy owl decked out in a tiny backwards cap and gold chains comes barreling down it, expertly handling the skateboard it rides on. it shoots past the camera, turns at the end, and then does a sick kickflip before riding out of sight,

NEVER DOUBT THE POWER OF THE OWL]

[rassera]

...

[it's so good this turned to video because this is the exact face you're seeing, Hazel. That certainly was...an owl on a skateboard.



Shit.]





Shit.

[deadtective]

[Hazel keeps the video shooting the empty hallway rather than turning it to show herself, but you can feel the smug pride radiating from her voice. that expression of his is going to be treasured in her memory forever.]

Yeah, that's what I thought.
