This... is concerning.

Rose and I went away last week for a few days. We just went up to Blackpool for candy floss and amusement arcades and other touristy things (which was lots of fun! :D). Only one minor alien to have words with (she's left Earth now, fortunately, because she was really confusing the local pigeons

Oh, you missed Mum coming over. She wants to do a big Easter garden party/Vitex schmooze-fest this year. I'm trying to talk her into letting me wear a rabbit costume to avoid the schmooze-fest small talk to entertain the kids. Not sure it's gonna work.

She said she already found you a grey suit, so good luck trying to go as a rabbit or anything.

[alienish_being]

*Grins* I think you'd make an excellent rabbit.

And since when do I wear what she tells me?

(Is it a nice suit, do you know?)

[rose_m_t]

*hops*

And she said that this was one of those Very Important Events that we have to go to and be proper and so on. I nodded a lot.

The suit...looks formal.

[alienish_being]

... Why does she want us there?

And do you know what shade of grey? I will need to decide on a shirt and what shade of converse to wear!

[rose_m_t]

Eye candy for the investors.

And do you know what shade of grey? I will need to decide on a shirt and what shade of converse to wear!

I don't think you need to worry. Looks like she picked out everything for you, down to the underpants.

This piece of eye candy is going to hide in the house, thank you very much.

... Hahaha no. Is it the sort of grey that goes with light pink? Because I'm not sure light pink shoes are really me, even for Easter.

This should be interesting.

Funny you should mention light pink - the shirt's light pink. And she got you non-Converse shoes. They're grey and shiny.

[alienish_being]

Well, all right, I'll come out and play with the kids or something. I can do that!

Hmm... the shirt might work. The shoes are going in Eggbert's nest. I'll get some shoes to match the tie I choose (which might, coincidentally, be the same one your mother chooses, but there is no guarantee!).

Has she bought you clothes, too?

Poor Eggbert.

Has she bought you clothes, too?

No, she wants to go shopping with me. She reckoned it would be easiest to just dress you.

[alienish_being]

Eggbert can always use new toys to destroy!

And looks like I've been the lucky one in this case, then! I'm still not wearing the sorts of shoes your mother thinks are appropriate. Has she no sense of comfort?

[rose_m_t]

I don't think comfort factors into Events. :D

[alienish_being]

It does if I'm going! I think you should take a stand with me, Rose, and wear trainers or boots! All for one and one for all! :D

[rose_m_t]

Yes! It's not like she'd throw us out. And even if she did... :D

[alienish_being]

Besides, we'll be the prettiest ones there in our shoes! :D

[rose_m_t]

I hope we'll be the only ones there in our shoes!

Thank you! Thank you!

[alienish_being]

*Pokes your ribs* Has anyone mentioned yet today that you're ridiculous? XD
