027 Points - A clean castle is a happy castle

[tomatoandbasil]

[What a fine day it is for the tail end of summer, isn't it, Paradisa? Everyone's rooms are back to normal. We all may or may not be scarred for life. We may all be varying degrees of depressed to have seen and heard what was hidden in us and in others. But the important thing is we made it out alive. Right? Right. Life goes on

[Turning around... in the city! Alleyne, what the fuck.]

What?

[tomatoandbasil]

[Hi Teresa, hi! You see this face peering from behind a crate.]

Even one of your kind should know that having clean ears can turn the tide in battle. What if you can't hear your enemy approaching?

[ofthefaintsmile]

What are you talking about?

[tomatoandbasil]

I'm saying your ears are dirty and...

[Biting on a finger as she tries to fight it.]

...you should probably get away from me now.

[sexyhitchhiker]

[aha. Have a surly teenager.]

Who the hell are you?

[tomatoandbasil]

A concerned teacher. Is that so wrong, miss? That's no way to talk to your elders.

[sexyhitchhiker]

This isn't school. I can't care less.

[tomatoandbasil]

So it's a failing grade in manners as well as hygiene. What a shining example of youth you are. Now get over here and...

[Clenching up.]

...No. Forget this. It's stupid.

Lmao at this loss. <3

[odst_mute]

[Okay, so he hasn't cleaned his armor in awhile. But he didn't think it was that bad. :|]

... Ma'am?

Ahaha thank you for enjoying it!

[tomatoandbasil]

[Well guess what? It is. Somehow, magically, it just is.]

You didn't hear me? Probably because your ears need cleaning.

[Don't ask how she can tell through your helmet.]

[odst_mute]

[Pretty much giving Alleyne a quizzical look before shifting his helmet to one side.

'Cause l-lol, what.]

Sorry, ma'am. Must have overlooked them.

[Except not really, but whatever.]

[tomatoandbasil]

[Yup, those ears. In there. She needs them. Bad.]

I'll fix it.

[Rin was just sitting in the autumn sun, brushing her Arcanine's thick orange fur... gotta get that summer coat all out so he's nice and sleek for winter...

She looks up at Alleyne, and blinks.]

... What?

[tomatoandbasil]

[Awww, doggy. What a lovely scene to behold. Does he need an extra cleaning too?]

You forgot your ears last time you bathed; I can see it from here.

[payback]

No way, I keep my ears very clean!

[No.. not Tad...]

[tomatoandbasil]

[She'd need bigger swabs anyways for the doggy.]

Are you sure about that now? I can see it quite clearly; you can't fool me.

[teds_up]

[Pause. T u r n A r o u n d . . .

OH GOD THE ELF.]

Oh jeez!

[First she's driving around in a tiny car, and now she's going at him with...

is that a giant q-tip.]

. . . Uh.

[tomatoandbasil]

[Wow, Ted, the castle must really love you! What luck you have speaking to her, really.]

So I was right. Nobody's bothered to clean their ears out in this damnable castle in months. Tch.

[She kind of looks like she'd rather not be doing this, but she's already said too much.]

[teds_up]

[You have no idea!

Also WHY DOES SHE WANT TO CLEAN HIS EARS. Ted's pretty bad at telling what's a loss in general...

Clearly, this requires a calm, collected response, telling the elf nicely that that's okay, he'll make sure to do that the next time he showers.]

Uh.

[Good job, Ted.]

[tomatoandbasil]

[Because! Someone has to do the dirty work.

Which she responds with a facepalm. Because what? This is stupid.]

My apologies. The castle...wants me to do this. I can't stop fixating on it.
