[Well, that was fun! Teatime isn't too happy about being tricked, but that delightful little toy they had given him more than made up for it. He wonders if he'll ever get it back. He'd like that.

Oh, well. Another unusual happenstance, another belonging from home returned to him. He's never really had many personal belongings, so he has no idea what

Are you finally seeking the help that you need? If you'll take my advice, I recommend electroshock therapy and an extremely high dose of tranquilizers.

[updollsdresses]

You're the cause of this! I know it! [paranoia paranoia errbody's coming to get meeeeeee]

[deaths_heritor]

Blaming me for retarded mental development is hardly fair.

[updollsdresses]

I am not-- it's your damned--

[Wait.

It's bad enough that the little witch knows about this; when Susan finds out, she'll never let him live it down. Err. After he's back to living, that is.

Best to delay it for as long as he can.

Which should be... ah, half hour, less if the shock gets him first.]

[Susan, of course, knows when to let a joke go and when to continue running with one.]

So deranged that you can't even finish your sentences anymore?

[OK now she can stop.]

What is my fault, Mr. Teatime?

[updollsdresses]

... Nothing.

Right now.

[deaths_heritor]

I'm glad to hear it.

Should I drop by later to make sure your doctor hasn't suffered any . . . nasty accidents?

[updollsdresses]

I'm not an ingrate, Susan.

[deaths_heritor]

Remind me to ask your parents their opinion about that.

[updollsdresses]

[Oh that is stone cold.]

I'm sure they would love to tell you.

[deaths_heritor]

I'll see if I can't ask Grandfather for some special allowance through the Desert.

[updollsdresses]

Mother will like you. [This is said the same way one says, "You have something in your teeth and it is a giant rat."]

[deaths_heritor]

I'm sure she'll want to know all about her precious little poppet.

[This is said in the same way one says, "I will dig your intestines out through your feet with a spoon."]

[updollsdresses]

And maybe you can go visit your own! Wouldn't that be nice.

[HAHA YOUR PARENTS DIED IN A HORRIBLE ACCIDENT AT A YOUNG AGE THAT IS HILARIOUS]

[deaths_heritor]

... Now why would you think my parents are dead?

Twurp's Peerage. I was always a very good study.
