So if you're not going to eat the rest of those chips...well, I'd gladly help you get rid of them. Being the loving, helpful sort of dog I am!

And you need to stop being so hard on yourself! So things didn't work out, that's okay! You're still great!

Hey! I know what will make you feel better! Let's read a book! That always cheers you up, right?

you are a god among men

[surgicalprodigy]

..Wha-?

A talking dog..well..guess I've seen stranger.

asdfghj /bows.

[whatsthestory]

Really?! Like what!

im so nostalgic right now you dont even know

[surgicalprodigy]

Like...

..Well, one time I saved a superhero's life, another time there was this guy with a bunch of gross bugs living inside him, andd another time there was this guy who ate a magnet. I guess the last one isn't that impressive, but it was pretty weird at the time. I mean, who would eat a magnet?

Oh! And one time I fixed a time traveling car!

I guess I've lived a pretty full life. Heh.

eeee. i'm glad. playing him is like being a kid again!

[whatsthestory]

[ wishbone barks excitedly and jumps around in circles. ]

You might be my new favourite person!

Tell me about the time traveling car!

:3

[surgicalprodigy]

Cool! You might be my new favorite..talking dog!

Well, I found it in some alley. It was really bent out of shape, but I managed to fix it up. I may have..accidentally sent it back in time.

I didn't think it would actually, you know, work.

[weddingcrasher]

Dogs talking is one thing, but dogs reading? Hee hee! That's just silly!

[whatsthestory]

Why is it silly?! Reading is fun! Don't you read?

[weddingcrasher]

Of course I do! It's just that dogs don't usually do it.

[whatsthestory]

Hmmm, well they should. It's fun!

[weddingcrasher]

Y'know what's more fun? Killing people! More dogs oughta be trained to do that! Hee hee!

[whatsthestory]

[ wishbone backs up. uh oh this can't be good. ]

Uhh, how about tricks. Like jumping through rings!? That's fun ...er, right?

[weddingcrasher]

Hmmm....yeah, that sounds fun too! Can you do any of 'em?

[virtueless]

[what in god's name -]

...But you're a dog. You can't read.

[whatsthestory]

Some people say dogs can't talk, but look at me! So why can't I read?!

[virtueless]

[that's...actually a good point. +1 for the dog, -1 for Ichabod.]

It's just...bizarre. Animals don't have a tendency to talk outside of - of fairy tales and children's books.

[whatsthestory]

Am I your first talking animal? [ that is exciting! ]

You're right. Us animals might talk more if humans knew how to listen.

[mustbethetruth]

I --

[Holmes double takes, and then his expression settles into its usual languid amusement.]

I'm sorry, I missed that. Come again?

[whatsthestory]

I said my mun needs to cheer up! And reading is the best thing when you're feeling down!

[mustbethetruth]

[He'd heard him perfectly well the first time; he just wanted to hear it again. Also to potentially double-check that he didn't make his seven per-cent solution a tad too strong.]

Why yes, of course. I couldn't agree more. What kind of books do you like to read, my furry fellow?

WISHBOOOOOONE

[cyan_maid]

Alright.
I think that, given how unpredictable these places can be, I can sort of accept that you are an actual talking dog.
But aren't potato chips bad for dogs??

XD

[whatsthestory]

Probably, but they're bad for people too! But they sure taste good!

gtnrbervs Oh no that icon is too cute

[cyan_maid]

You know what? You are absolutely right on both counts.
I'll give you that.

wishbone is the cutest dog!

[whatsthestory]

So! Who are you? What's your story?

Oh, and I'm Wishbone!

He is! I wish they'd put his show on again.

[cyan_maid]

You really want to hear my story?
I'd be glad to tell you, but I hope you'll tell me yours!

My name is Jane Crocker, and it's nice to meet you, Wishbone.
Right now I'm stuck in a very unusual castle, but usually I am back at home, chatting with my friends online!
We were all embarking on the maiden voyage of an exclusive game, but there are a lot of tricks and turns to it.

OH MY GOSH WISHBOOOONE

[smallmailman]

Wow! I didn't know there were even more talking dogs!

RUSSSELL~

[whatsthestory]

Wow! You know another talking dog?!

[ wishbone barks and runs around in a circle! ]

[smallmailman]

Yeah! He's bigger than you, though, and he's yellow, too. [Pats for Wishbone's head because dogs, yes.] You probably don't know him, though, he was from wayyyyyy far away.

[whatsthestory]

[ wishbone loves the pats! and he licks russll's hand in return! ]

It's great to know I'm not the only talking dog! It gets kinda lonely when no one replies.

PBS fistbump?

[creature_conundrum]

Now that's what I like to see! Kids these days don't read enough. Back in my day, you couldn't walk for the books cramming the hallways.

...So what's this about chips?
