[It's just another day.  Another day since nuclear annihilation and being shot by cannibals.

Holland checks the mail on his way out.  He hadn't gotten anything yet, but since Canada got the moose, he was sure he had something coming.

But it's not until he gets to work that he opens it.  Big mistake.]

A - [The Pharmacy]

[It's slow at the pharmacy

B;

[decadenzas]

[...welp, there's something you don't see every afternoon.]

Trying to make a fashion statement?

[gezellighe]

[Riding right by, riding right by and not going to stop unless someone makes him.]

[decadenzas]

[it's not like he's the kind of person who would yank a bike right out from under an unwitting cyclist!! ...no he totally is, but he decides not to be that asshattish for once, running beside him at an matching pace like the persistent thing he is.]

Are you in a rush?

[gezellighe]

[Speeding up with a frown!]

A

[bearhersins]

[ Just another day at work, so Mikiya walks into the pharmacy to get started and spots.. this guy dressed like that.

... Give him a moment to just blankly stare, as if he's not sure what's going on. But then again, weirder things happen in this town, and perhaps this is just some strange fashion sense, right? Yes, totally makes sense. Let's pretend nothing at all is going on. ]

... Ah. Good morning.

[gezellighe]

Uh-

Hallo.

[Everything is normal and nothing is weird. That's how he's acting, at least.]

[bearhersins]

I'm sorry, I didn't know that it was.. some special working holiday today where you have to dress up.

[ this explanation seems to make sense to him, yup. ]

hello co-worker

[gezellighe]

Oh, well.

It's not.

I mean, if you wanted to you could, but it's not.

[Awkward, awkward.]

A

[kinships]

[He was making it a point to check on all his friends after... that. And so he had sneaked out of school at lunch time, intending to be back for afternoon class, and headed for the pharmacy.

But when he saw what was waiting for him inside... Haha, he couldn't help but let a massive smile split his face.]

Morning, Mr. Holland.

[gezellighe]

[His shoulders bunch up, all tense as he's getting his bike to go home. . . and then he turns around. Once he sees it's Cain, he calms down a little. Nothing is wrong.]

Hoi, Cain.

[That smile. . .]

[kinships]

[He is beyond amused, but he's trying not to laugh outright to save Holland embarrassment.]

That's... a new look for you.

[gezellighe]

It's not mine--

I mean, it's just the town.

C

[welljustwatchme]

[She's in the living room sewing when she sees something fluffy come in the house and go upstairs. No big deal. But then she clues in that she's not at home and she didn't leave the door open, and her two are both within eyesight, so something else is going on.

Something in their bedroom? Well, Canada's going to go investigate, knocking at the door.]

[gezellighe]

[Verdomme. . . he still can't get the ears off, and it was the first thing he was trying to do, after removing the fluffy paw gloves - which, oddly enough, come off easily.]

Uhm-

Just a minute.

[welljustwatchme]

Is everything all right in there? I thought I saw something... fluffy.

[gezellighe]

No!

I mean, I'm fine. Nothing fluffy.

[Smooooth.]

B

[doulikewaffles]

Oh, you got your Costume back too, huh?

[Wait something's wrong here...]

Why are you do wearing it now? It's almost Christmas

[gezellighe]

[O-okay, he'll stop for you Belgium. Barely.]

I opened the envelope, and it was just on me.

[Who knows.]
