Unlike someone he knew who was around to take the call. XD



They sound cool. I want one now.

"Time to break out the polyamory mods."

"Yes! Baldur! You are indeed worthy to be head of household!"

I'd seen Odin Aesir's death coming, but had a hard time arranging the household to minimize the disruption of the mourning period - nobody was hungry at the same time, I sent Thor to wash the dog about three times and somehow it kept dropping out of queue, teen daughter Freya and Odin's adult illegitimate son Niall kept attacking each other, just one thing after another. Of course everything got worse when Odin died and I started free-ranging. I was beginning to worry about Freya's twin Frey, whose hunger was dropping dangerously by the small hours of the morning, and wondering whether the fact that he had only that morning moved in and started getting to know his father, gave me sufficient excuse to truncate Niall's mourning. And then Baldur, who had been stuffing his face, suddenly started serving out a nice sparkly breakfast!

It took three calls to meal to get Frey out of bed, Niall and Freya are at each other's throats, Odin's widow Frigga came really close to flirting with Niall (!) before it dropped out of queue in favor of watching him fight her only daughter, and I'm concerned about the dogs, but Baldur is trying to clean the dog bed and I think he'll manage all right.

"The cat is not supposed to be flashing pink."

Several minutes later: "Neither is the landlord."

I think this is hands down THE best thing to hear out of context.

"Well I guess she's not playing hooky."

Sharla Ottomas (child) showed up at P.U.R.E. at 4 in the morning.

The day before, Isaiah Gavigan (child) was seen soaping all the fountains at a Downtown park during school hours.

"Who put that there?! ... oh.. right... I did."

I completely identify with this one.

"I like how she calls, Mom answers, and she asks to speak to Stepmom."
Tania Bosch just started college and when I went back to her family's house she called home in the evening. Her birth mom, Natalie, answered the phone, and it was Tania with "Hi Natalie! Is Amanda available to talk?" Spare a word for your first mother, girl!

The strange thing is that her mum and her stepmum are living together. XD

Of course they are, they're married!

Hah. Reminds me of the joke that only works if you presumed the doctor was male. I did presume that stepmum was married to father. XD
