cw: dead kids

[dead_tongue]

yeah, well, I'm also kinda creepy myself I guess. when I was a little boy one of my playmates was a girl who fell off the jungle gym and broke her neck in the 1970s. her head never really sat right. but she was so beautiful and so sweet.

I dunno. I just really like you creepy fucks. you and John have been consistently kind to me while other 'normal' people have made snide comments or told me to go away. I know what I'm like, I know how people see me.

you take me seriously anyway.

[There was so much there that she couldn't bring herself to respond to, so she focused on the beginning.]

Was she your first ghost? That girl.

[dead_tongue]

oh gosh no. I can't even remember the first. Mom thinks it was her grandma.

[princess_of_ida]

Ah. I was just wondering why you picked her.

[dead_tongue]

because I loved her.

[princess_of_ida]

Before or after she died?

[dead_tongue]

oh, I never knew her when she was alive. I was born in '99 and judging by her clothes she died decades earlier. but she was pretty much my best friend when I was little. I didn't really know any living kids.

she stopped showing up for me when I got older.

[princess_of_ida]

Maybe she moved on beyond the River.

Do you want to know a secret?

[dead_tongue]

I hope so.

Yes.

[princess_of_ida]

The eyes both John and I bear are not the same color we were born with. That change is a mark of both our greatness and our horror.

[dead_tongue]

it's beautiful.


does it bother you?

[princess_of_ida]

Sometimes. I was rather fond of my former eyes. They were purple - lilac to be precise.

I've been told by those that knew me back then that the blue doesn't look right in my face.

[dead_tongue]

oh that's a pretty colour, yeah.

I disagree. I think they look stunning.

why did they change?

[princess_of_ida]

I successfully completed a megatheorem that made me immortal. I'm not going to get into details.

But thanks for complimenting the blue. It's been about two years now. I'm not startled by then anymore when I look in a mirror.

[dead_tongue]

alright. sounds like a lot of work.

I think you're gorgeous, don't let anyone say different.

[princess_of_ida]

Flattery will get you everywhere.

[dead_tongue]

shut up I'm not being flattering.

look, I forget my point. I think just that you're my boss now, you're amazing to me, love you, you bitch.

[princess_of_ida]

[What horribly misplaced affection. But it felt nice. Concerning.]

I bet you say that to all the boys~

Alright, alright, I think I caught your point. Thanks, Iggy. Now I'm going to go walk through town and see how many villagers come kiss my ass. Catch you later.

[dead_tongue]

yeah, but with you I mean it. :P

make em beg.
