[ You know what, I like B. B is a good option.

So anyways, he's Lloyd. And this is a story all about how his life got flipped turned upside down, if you'd like to take a moment just sit right there, I'll tell you how he ended up on the ground under some dogs and a girl with pretty blond hair.

Jk jk, but really he had been just walking down the hall, thinking about grabbing some lunch because he is starving and hasn't eaten all day, when he's suddenly plowed into by a dozen dogs on leashes. Normally one might expect to notice a horde of animals racing at you with the speed of a rushing train, but Lloyd is just really hungry and not paying attention -- suddenly, leashes! Dogs! Paws!]

Hurrk!

[shamelessweed]

[Her boss had told her it would be easy to walk the twelve dogs. Just hold onto the leashes and keep them taunt. But within five minutes of picking up the twelfth dog, they took off as a group. She'd tried at first to stop them, but she wasn't strong enough or heavy enough to even slow them down. Flapping along like a kite, she trailed after the dogs.

Until they ran into someone.]

Aaaahhh aaaahhhh aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

[WHUMP]

[And she lands on top, in a tangle of leashes, paws, and limbs.]

On no, oh no, oh no! I'm so sorry!

[twicethepower]

[ That's -- a familiar voice. He's too crushed by pooches and too entangled to struggle his way out, but he can talk! ]

-- Moriyama?

[shamelessweed]

A-ah? Lloyd? Is that you?

[TRYING TO GET UNTANGLED]

Are you all right?

[other than being buried under a dozen dogs]

[twicethepower]

[ yeah, now he's trying to get untangled, too, without hurting any of the dogs ]

[ who are also kicking because they wanna be free ]

Yeah, it's me. I'm fine! Aside from -- uh, well, I'm kinda stuck.

[shamelessweed]

I'm sorry! I was trying to shop them, but they're so strong!

[TRYING TO GET THE DOGS UNTANGLED omg so many dogs so many leashes]

[twicethepower]

No, it's okay! We'll get outta this -- we just gotta -- get the tangles --

[and he starts to untangle the leashes by moving them around, and pulling at them.]

I don't think we wanna have to take the dogs off the leashes, I think they'd go running off.

[shamelessweed]

[she tries to untangle leashes and dogs on her side of the pile]

Oh goodness, if they all ran off I'd... I'd be in so much trouble...

[twicethepower]

Yeah, that's what I figured!

[manages to get one big tangle out, and shifts up so he can see her now]

[cute grin!]

Hi!

[shamelessweed]

[she grins back]

Hi. You're really all right?

[gets a second tangle worked out]

[twicethepower]

Yeah. I might be a little sore tomorrow, but that's nothing.

[grabs a tiny dog and lifts him up to untangle more things!]

[shamelessweed]

[the dogs seem to have mostly calmed down and are currently checking Lloyd out, poking their noses at him and a couple even licking him]

Hey! Stop that!

[twicethepower]

--! Haha, hey there!

[laughs -- they tickle!!]

Looks like they just wanted some attention.

[he runs one on the top of it's head]

[shamelessweed]

[but she was giving them plenty of attention!]

Well, at least they're no longer running.

[QUICKLY UNTANGLES THE REST OF THE LEASHES]

[twicethepower]

[You were nothing more than dead weight to them 8|]

Yeah, they've settled down some.

[rub rub rub]

[shamelessweed]

[sad... but true]

They have so much energy.

[LEASHES UNTANGLED! VICTORY!]
