VIDEO; UN: HAWKEYE

[strictdiscipline]

[Instead of any person, the scene presently on the screen is of a backpack lying in the snow, overflowing with child leashes in a variety of different colors and patterns. The voice that pipes up has about as much warmth as the chill tundra wind and is just loud enough to cut through the continued wailing of infant squidges nearby.]

It appears that some of our superiors question our ability to properly watch over these small creatures.

[Though if the delivery was sent in earnest rather than as a practical joke, she can't say she disagrees with the assessment, at least not with regards to a certain subsection of Team Audentes. (Fortune might favor the bold, but it certainly won't favor anyone lacking basic common sense as far as she's concerned.)

Regardless, she presses on.]

While I should hope that none of you will need one at the moment [judging u if you put a leash on ur infant squidge tbh] some of you may find them necessary at a later point in this mission. There seem to be enough for each recruit to have one.

[Unfortunately.

A brief pause follows, enough time for a resigned sigh.]

With that said, if you are concerned about caring for a living being, I'm sure there are several of us willing to provide advice.

(ooc: i bought a bunch of child leashes as an ac reward as i was completely out of ideas, feel free to handwave your character grabbed one.)

[PAPYRUS.........]

Are you planning on using it right now?

[boneafide]

Yes!

I might actually need two!!

[strictdiscipline]

[?????????????????? She's so flabbergasted she can only echo his words.]

'Two'?

[boneafide]

One for Lucida and one for me!

[strictdiscipline]

[this


what




why???

(Lucida is a cute name tho, A+)]

Why do you need a leash?

[boneafide]

So I can hold hers, and she can hold mine!

[ Duh!!! ]

[strictdiscipline]

[Weakly:]

I don't think that's how these work....

[pls reconsider]

[boneafide]

Why not...? I used to wear one before.

[strictdiscipline]

You wore a leash?

[does it still count as inhumane if the one wearing it isn't human....or even really alive.]

[boneafide]

So I wouldn't get lost in the forest, yes!

[strictdiscipline]

[..........]

Did you not have a map?

[boneafide]

Nope!

[ Maybe he was also a child, Riza?? You know?? A wee baby skeleton monster?? ]

[strictdiscipline]

[ ok fine maybe he had like a mother?? or a guardian??? or something other than a leash??? ]

I see. [She doesn't see. Not at all.] And you didn't mind wearing it?

[boneafide]

[He had Sans.]

Nope! Sometimes I liked to pretend I was a dog!

[strictdiscipline]

[Things she will never understand: advanced particle physics, how ALASTAIR picks out their recruit volunteers, and Papyrus.]

Was your brother your 'owner'?

[boneafide]

Uh, no, he's my brother.

[ That's a kind of weird thing to say, Riza... ]

[strictdiscipline]

[ wow ]

So you pretended to be a dog on a leash without an owner when you were younger.

[ pot meet kettle ]

[boneafide]

Yes!

Also back in December.

[LIKE LITERALLY 7 MONTHS AGO LMF]

I CANT BELIEVE I FORGOT I TAGGED THAT, SHAME ON ME

[strictdiscipline]

[This is a travesty. But moving on.]

So you want two leashes?

IT WAS SO LONG AGO I ALSO FORGOT ABOUT IT until i actually just looked for the thread

[boneafide]

Yes!

go us....

[strictdiscipline]

Then I'll bring them over.

[And then hopefully they can never speak of this again.]

[boneafide]

Good! Very good! Thank you, Hawkeye!
