new shiny oc and is homeless ; looking at some games

[for_redemption]

Ok. First things first. Real glad to see your little rocket of bad ideas(me), finally take off, also just as glad to know that you actually plan to send me somewhere. Though, I've just got a feeeewwww.....comments, on your choices of "games".

First. Frost giants?...When I said "two tons of fun", I didn't mean it literally. This is a big deal. I'm six feet and one inch tall, and I can already tell you, I am no match for something that's twelve to thirty feet tall. And don't try to say it's the lighting that makes them look big.

Second. Disney meets Nosferatu. I've never even been to disney land and now you're thinking of sending me somewhere to ruin what little childhood innocence I have left...You're satan aren't you?

Third. Haven.

...Should I even tell you why I don't want to go here?

You know what, forget this. Put me back down on the ground, I like the ground. I was relatively safe down there.

Could've been a helluva lot worse, kid.

[for_redemption]

I think I'm going to regret asking, but, just how could things have been worse?

[patriotical]

Could get into one of those games where folks are doing - well they're fonduein' -- all the darn time.

[for_redemption]

Fon-what? Is that even a word???

[patriotical]

[ he pauses. ]

I think it is?

[for_redemption]

You think it is? Fantastic.

[This is not a meeting of the minds.]

Fonduein', fonduin', fon-?? Fon. Due. In?.....Fondue?

Is the word "Fondue"???

[patriotical]

Yeah. You know. Those games where the guys and the gals - they fondue. Usually cause of some chip or something.

[for_redemption]

Did you-[Hold on.]-D-Did you really just use "fondue" as verb???

[patriotical]

Ain't it some french verb?

[for_redemption]

What? No. Fondue is--wait.

[He has to hear this first.]

What do you think people do when they.....fondue?

[patriotical]

Well. They.

[ wow look he's getting really nervous. ]

You know Disney land's a real great place.

[for_redemption]

[Okay, he's pretty much figured it out. Dear lord, someone should really give this guy "the talk". But first, let's save this poor soul from using that word wrong again.]

Fondue is a type of dish you see in a lot fancy social gatherings. Melted cheese or chocolate, depending on how you want it, real high class stuff. You eat it with bread or fruits, though I can see how it can be.......kinky.

[Now he's just going sit and wait for you to digest that.]

[patriotical]

[ good god. he's not getting into this conversation. he wants to talk about disneyland. please let him talk about disneyland. ]

You see how it can be - kinky?

[ oh my god. how is he having this conversation. ]

[for_redemption]

[Oh god. Somewhere deep down, he's going to feel really bad about this but oh so good.]

Some people can get pretty creative with the stuff they coat in chocolate.

Take subject "A", a beautiful young lady, let's call her Diane. [Shall he continue. He can whip up a picture book for you if you'd like.]

gently slides right in here

[solidrighthook]

[ oh good god not this again ]

It's a misinterpretation, it doesn't mean what you think it does. [ rude tbqh peggy isn't that kinda gal ] A misinterpretation that I thought you'd corrected by now.

[patriotical]

I didn't mean it like that, Peg.

[ not with mr. stark anyway. ]

Bucky kept laughin' so I figured it was somewhere - green.

[weedlikespirit]

Frost giants...? Are they a type of demon we haven't covered yet?

Even if they're taller than you, it doesn't mean you can't win against them. Trying is better than not trying, isn't it?

[for_redemption]

How about just avoid going toe-to-toe with something that could potentially eat me alive. Yeah, I think I like that idea.

[weedlikespirit]

Well, maybe not on your own, but... if you make some friends, the giants won't be as difficult. Or maybe you can help in another way that isn't fighting.

[for_redemption]

There is another way. It's called running. Heading for the hills. Strategic retreat. Facing giants is something greek gods and mythological heroes do, something that's waaaay above my pay grade.
