today's edition of When Artistic License Goes Bad....
Ok, so I'm typing up a fic, and Pike's one-eyed dog is in it, and I'm right in the middle of writing some dialogue for her when I suddenly think, "Is this, like, weird or something?"
Also, Pike is totally baked.
SHUT UP THIS IS WHY I DON'T POST TO COMMS, OK, SO I CAN WRITE WHATEVER I WANT.
you know you want a snippet:
"Naja, get the groceries," Pike says.
The dog tilts her head at him but doesn't move so Pike says again, "Naja. Naja. Naaaaja." The last iteration is possibly less to get her attention and more because he likes the way it sounds. Jim has been high before. He knows how it goes.
Naja gets to her feet, facing Pike head-on with her front paws in an even stance. Woah dude that was my name, she says. You just said my name. It is cool that you know my name but WHAT DO YOU WANT.
"Get the groceries," Pike says, snapping his fingers and pointing at the bag.
The dog looks at the grocery bag then back at Pike and says, Shut your mouth, motherfucker, I DON'T HAVE THUMBS.
I was thinking of giving the dog poor grammar and spelling, like lolcats, but then I decided that would be a bit much.
This is a straight-from-hard-copy rough draft and I'm sure I will regret posting it when I wake up.
