As Sassy wakes up on the morning of her birthday, she is greeted by a small wet tongue lapping at her face. When she opens her eyes, she finds a miniature Daschnud puppy in bed with her. Around her neck is a thin, bright red ribbon. At one end is a tag that reads...Hi, Sassy! My name is Sarsaparilla...it's kind of an unusual name, like yours. That'

Squealy Happy Phone Call FTW

[icouldbe_bess]

After about twenty minutes of making baby noises at the little puppy in her lap and squealing over the gorgeous necklace now drapped around her neck, she summoned the self-control to breathe.

It was hard.

Once she had that covered, she tried to find her cell phone under the piles of blankets and clothes and insanity. Sadly, it involved putting Ella down and digging under the blankets. Which then involved Ella helping her which lead to a laughing fit and not being able to breathe again. Oh vicious cycle.

Finally, she found her hot pink phone and found Ella trying to eat her breakfast off of her nightstand while she wasn't looking. "Ella for the win!"

Still giggling, she dialed Tommy's number and waited, trying again to breathe like a normal person.

"...then you just pass off the shell and it's right there in the spectator's palm."

Tommy grinned, leaning over to inspect the gimmick Jay was holding in his hand. "Dude, now that? Is wicked badass. And you can just sub it for real magic without missing a beat, 'cause the gimmick's real."

"Absolut-amundo, brohim. So! We doing Bardini tonight?"

Tommy nodded, stretching back out on the grass as he sat with the Kellar twins on the main lawn of the Arts building on campus. The last lecture of the day had just ended, so he was set to try and see Sassy as soon as he was done training with his friends at their usual warehouse hangout. "Yeah, but I'll be with Sassy. It's her birthday, so..."

"Getting serious, man? She's a cutie."

Smiling shyly, he shrugged as he pulled his sunglasses down over his eyes so he could stare up at the sky and not get caught mooning. "We ain't exactly together...yet."

"Does she know what you are?"Tommy was saved from answering by the chirp of his cell phone. Breathing a sigh of relief and getting the finger

"YOU BOUGHT ME A GOD DAMN MOTHERFUCKING PUPPY!" she squealed into the phone, making Ella bark at her as she bounced up and off the bed, skipping over to the piano and putting Ella on top of it as she flopped onto the bench and played a quick scale. "A PUPPY!"

Tommy had to wince and yank his phone back as Sassy squealed in his ear, but still grinned once it went quiet again. Covering the mouthpiece for a moment, he grinned at the twins. "She got the puppy."

"So the trick worked! Sweet, yo!" Mike grinned, leaning over to call into the phone. "Happy birthday, Sass!"

Waving him off with a laugh, Tommy spoke into the phone again. "So you found Ella, nice! Did you get the other present, too?"
