☆57.5☆ [Fourth Wall]

[tearsofademon]

[Somewhere, somehow, there is a pile of slimes. It's a pretty impressive pile, several feet high. Blue blobby things all grinning cheerfully.

Of course, this would be just an amusing, if odd, sight, if it wasn't for the fact that at the bottom of that slime pile, there's a single human arm sticking out... and twitching.

If you listen closely, you might even be able to hear a strained voice from beneath them all...]

...somebody... a little help...

[zeitnot]

Magic.

[tearsofademon]

Magic kinda would need me to be able to move.

[zeitnot]

Then twist your elbow a little to the right.

[tearsofademon]

That's easier said than done.

[zeitnot]

Stop talking and start doing.

[tearsofademon]

Fine...

[He'll try. Not very enthusiastically, but he'll try.]

[zeitnot]

[ meanwhile, the kid will chew on his bubblegum, and look at you thoughtfully. ]

[tearsofademon]

[Oh look, he managed to move it an inch.]

Yeeeeaaaahh, not working.

[zeitnot]

... oh my god. There has to be a limit on how unimpressive someone can be.

[tearsofademon]

They're heavy.

[zeitnot]

Excuses.

[tearsofademon]

Hey, if you were the one buried under all these things, you'd have trouble too.

[zeitnot]

I wouldn't get buried in the first place.

[tearsofademon]

It's not like I wanted to either. It just happened.

[zeitnot]

Ahhh haa... All I wanted was a slime. Why is life so hard?

[tearsofademon]

Seriously, take all of them.

[zeitnot]

I just want the one that's mine.

[tearsofademon]

Then dig it out...?

[zeitnot]

Effort.

[ aaaand he'll sit right down next to you, ryner. ] Your eyes are kind of weird.

[tearsofademon]

I have no idea what you're talking about.

[but he's subtly closing off a little now because why are you bringing up his eyes]

[zeitnot]

[ because he's a jerk ]

Oh... I hit a sore spot.

[tearsofademon]

[Maybe looking away and saying nothing will get this stranger to drop the subject.]

[zeitnot]

... thaaaaat's not gonna work.

[tearsofademon]

[Nope, not saying anything.]

[zeitnot]

Hm.

Want me to reach in there and pluck them out?
