ITP: Kurt built Rogue a coffin

[chicksdigfuzz]

[So one day BEFORE Halloween, there is a fuzzy blue elf trying to drag a very nicely-made coffin into an acceptable position in the front yard. His loving sister keeps making him move it. It will fit in nicely with the tombstones, cobwebs, giant spiders, ghosts, and jack-o-bat army that are scattered artfully around the cabin. Also that pesky

[this is. different.]

Uh, Kurt?

[chicksdigfuzz]

What, too many cobwebs? I can convince her to take some of them down. Maybe.

[gestures around at... everything]

You don't think the whole thing is just a little too much?

[chicksdigfuzz]

Personally? A little bit. But it makes Rogue happy, and I like decorating for the season. It's better than whatever else we're doing, right?

[needs_a_hg]

I think it's better than what anyone else is doing.

It was either this or decorating the lawn with severed hands, and, you know. That seems a little tactless. So I built her a coffin and let her decorate the front lawn.

[needs_a_hg]

I'm glad you talked her out of the severed hands. That so would not have worked out well.

[chicksdigfuzz]

My thoughts exactly. We've...well, we don't need to add anything else to all of it. If we can set up for Halloween and make sure everyone has a good time, then I count it as a success.

[needs_a_hg]

It's a really nice thought.

[chicksdigfuzz]

Glad you think so. Want to help decorate?

[needs_a_hg]

Need some help moving that coffin around?

[chicksdigfuzz]

If you think we can move it without denting it and Rogue killing us, then yes.

[needs_a_hg]

I think we can manage between us. Where does she want it?

[chicksdigfuzz]

Closer to the door, apparently. So when the little trick-or-treaters stop by, she can stare at them from inside and spook them.

[needs_a_hg]

... that's awful!

[chicksdigfuzz]

It's Rogue. In case you missed the goth outfit and her love of Dracula, she also enjoys terrorizing small children.
