Well. It was about time that this school started behaving in a sensible fashion. Unlike most of his fellow students, Dwight was thrilled at the
odd turn of events. Yes. Marriage was most agreeable. Sadly, it could not be to Angela, but a Schrute always looked towards the future!
Heading to tent 23, he was even more ecstatic to find that not

She blinked at the guy hoeing for a second, and it took her a moment to recognize him. When she did... No way. Wow, this was wrong, but she couldn't resist.
Tomo leapt out of the tent, her voice loud enough to be heard by half the tent village. "HIYA, DOUCHE!"

Stalking over to her, he puffed out his (sweaty) chest imperiously. "Get off of my property or I will have to alert the authorities in conjunction with federal law about interlopers and beet farms." Sniff. So there! "And my name is not Douche."

"What are YOU yelling about? I don't wanna be here either." She leaned back slightly, away from the sweaty chest in her face. "Gah. Ever heard of deodorant?"
She pointed over his shoulder at the line of house elves standing at the perimeter of the beet farm, several holding cattle prods at the ready and all eyeing Tomo warily. "What, you don't think I'd leave if I could? I've been trying, but those little jerks won't let me. They threw me in here! Ganged up on me and abducted poor, innocent little me to be thrown to the wolf who doesn't bathe!"
Melodramatic much? Yes. But that's the point.
"Pfft. It's something that starts with D, and 'Douche' suits you. Good enough. It's a term of endearment, you oughta be grateful for it!"
At this point, she's practically channeling Yukari, but the look on Dwight's face is so worth it.

"What's going on here?" she asked, slightly resigned. "I've had enough weirdness happening in the past hours to make me last a long while." She looked at Dwight. "Who're you and why are you hoeing our backyard?"

The Beet Farm is about midway through her wanderings. Maia glances over there, stares, and then smirks.
She strolls over to the fence, leaning over it. 'Hey, Sanchez!' she calls out. 'Alternative lifestyle time? How're you enjoying the company?'
Weirdly, she's not trying to be all that malicious. Just freaked out and teasing--marriage has knocked her for six a little bit.

"Maia," said Lola, in an irritated tone. She was starting to develop a massive headache, and she hadn't been aware that was even possible for angels. She couldn't really bring up the energy to snap at Maia properly, and settled for a hostile glare. It looked out of place on a face that was usually so bright and bubbly.
"Would you mind?" she asked sourly. "I'm on my honeymoon." Lola paused as she realised something. "So you were pulled into this, too? How is holy matrimony working for you?"
Yeah, okay, lame. Still. Ha ha. Holy. Lola hoped the very word burned Maia's ears.

She spares a glance to a very shirtless Dwight.
'At least mine doesn't have a pot belly.' No, Maia, he just has tentacles. That's not really a plus, however. 'And he doesn't expect me to have threesomes. Bad angel! No biscuit!'

"I wouldn't expect you to understand," she continued condescendingly, because she'd be damned if she lost a fight with Maia... Well, metaphorically, anyway.

Someone had given Dwight a farm of some sort. And she was pretty sure she knew just what seeds he was planting in the soil.
And oh, god, he was shirtless. Ewwwwwwwwwwwwwww.
Well, the upside was that this probably would provide some great fodder for pranks of some sort.
"Hey, Dwight," she said sunnily, shielding her eyes from the sun with one hand. "Did Michael ask you to come out here, or are you taking a day off?"

Now, though, she did her best to keep her expression neutral, saying, "Oh, um...no, I'm...still not married." And if the Hat was crazy enough to give Dwight a farm and two wives, then she would definitely remember not to ask it to set her up on a blind date anytime in the near, medium-term, or far future. "But...thanks for the vote of confidence, Dwight." Without her being aware of it, her right hand drifted down to her left, some of the fingers twisting around the now-empty ring finger.
Yikes, poor girls who were forced to be married to Dwight. That must be awful for them, she thought, visions of high-collared nightgowns and beet ( ... )

"DWIGHT!" Kelly exclaimed, walking to the Beet Farm in a huff. "Put your shirt on!"
