Weekend was too short, if y'ask me.

[auraleffect-blog]

Some people are so mean.

[auraleffect-blog]

Coloring! And cuddles, please.

Okay, Daddy.

[augmentedauthority]

Of course. 

I'll be there soon, sugar.

[auraleffect-blog]

Some people are so mean.

[auraleffect-blog]

Yay! Thank you. But, I’d be happy doing pretty much anything with you.

Oh. Okay. I… I think it’s come, then. I mean, it definitely has and…I definitely want to. I just…wasn’t sure.

[augmentedauthority]

Well, looks like it's up to you, then, 'cause I'm happy doin' anything with you too baby girl.

Well then if it's right for you it's right for me darlin'. Don't you sweat it. 

[auraleffect-blog]

Some people are so mean.

[auraleffect-blog]

Okay! Most of my coloring books are princess ones, too so we can do a whole bunch. I mean. If you want. I could color all day.

I know— I mean, I figured you do. But I haven’t— We haven’t…with me calling you it yet…

[augmentedauthority]

I don't mind what we do, sugar. Whatever you want.

I know we haven't, but I don't mind, nonetheless. I figured it'll come when you want it to.

[auraleffect-blog]

Some people are so mean.

[auraleffect-blog]

I especially like it when coloring princesses ‘cause you can do all different colors for hair. Y-you can come. Please come.

I… I might call you daddy by mistake.

[augmentedauthority]

Of course y'can. You'll have t'show me. 

S'alright, sugar. I don't mind. Tell ya a secret... I like it.

[auraleffect-blog]

Some people are so mean.

[auraleffect-blog]

Nothing else.

I… Um. You can come over. If you want, I mean. D’you wanna color with me? I have the big box of crayons. Hundred and twenty colors.

[augmentedauthority]

Hundred and twenty? Oh wow, darlin', that's great. I'd love to color with you if y'want. 

[auraleffect-blog]

Some people are so mean.

[auraleffect-blog]

Thank you.

Uh-huh. I’m fine. Feelin’… um. Little. But fine.

[augmentedauthority]

Well, I figured that. Just didn't know if there was anythin' else. You got stuff t'do or y'want me to come over? I've got some colorin' books somewhere 'round here...

[auraleffect-blog]

Some people are so mean.

[auraleffect-blog]

I… I dunn wanna talk about it anymore.

Uh-uh, I’m happy to keep it t’ only you. You’re pretty. 

[augmentedauthority]

Alright, sweetheart. 

I'm pretty, huh? Y'alright there, sugar?

[auraleffect-blog]

Some people are so mean.

[auraleffect-blog]

I don’t want it to…be a thing. It’s not a big deal really. There doesn’t need to be any, um…action taken.

I have a feeling you won’t. Always a few rotten apples, aren’t there? I’m glad my experience had been limited to you, and that it’s been a good one.

[augmentedauthority]

If he's bein' unfair to you, sugar, it's a big deal.

'N I'm glad for that too. Don't think you wanna meet any of the bad apples from the country life. They ain't pretty. 

[auraleffect-blog]

Some people are so mean.

[auraleffect-blog]

He’s only a low-level one anyone. The people higher up than him are all really nice.

Mm. Have to make sure that you don’t get to that point ever, then. All country boys just inherently treat people well?

[augmentedauthority]

Then report him to his higher ups?

Well hopefully I won't. Most of us do, but I'm 'fraid there are a few bad ones in the bunch. 

[auraleffect-blog]

Some people are so mean.

[auraleffect-blog]

I think he might forget on purpose sometimes.

Do you ever do that? Forget? I mean, basically, like, everyone works for you…

[augmentedauthority]

Well, then he doesn't deserve to be a boss.

I haven't yet, but I'm not gonna say I won't--just haven't gotten to that point yet, I guess. Perks of being a country boy in a way.

[auraleffect-blog]

Some people are so mean.

[auraleffect-blog]

Don’t be silly — it’s not a big deal or anything. Not worth you…doing something or talking to him. And I’m fine, I promise. Just too sensitive.

[augmentedauthority]

Y'aren't too sensitive. Sometimes bosses can forget the people that work for 'em are human, y'know? 

[auraleffect-blog]

Some people are so mean.

[auraleffect-blog]

Just that one boss I have. He— He’s just so unpleasant.

[augmentedauthority]

Hm. Y'want me to talk to 'im? 

[auraleffect-blog]

Some people are so mean.

[augmentedauthority]

What happened, sugar?

[augmentedauthority]

Echo: First order of business today is drafting an email to the universe to thank it for you

Auggie: Aw, sugar.

Auggie: You better draft one for yourself then, from yours truly.

[augmentedauthority]

Echo: That sounds like it'll definitely get me through the work day.

Echo: Someplace with yummy dessert?

Auggie: Good. :)

Auggie: Of course. Wherever you want to go.

[augmentedauthority]

text; eggo

Echo: I'm out of bed and dressed and all ready to go and I need encouragement to get to work :c

Auggie: You can do it, sugar.

Auggie: If you make it through work I'll pick y'up after and take you to dinner, how's that sound?
