The falsity within this statement though….

[deepestshadeofblack]

Shut up and love me.

Is this because of Disney Princesses’ rules or something? What if you just paid me in food? That sounds good? I never learn my lessons when it comes to that. I would but I hate his guts so, not likely. I guess someone missed their pet lion…and anyway I had to come back because of you guys! I missed you! 

[deepestshadeofblack]

It's because of Princess Sophia's rules. Get with the program. How did I know you'd say something like that. You're lucky I like to cook. Then give me a name and I'll make it happen myself. I have the best pet ever how could I not miss my adorable lion cub? If you hadn't come back, I'd have been well pissed off. I'd come all the way out to India to drag you back.

[leothebonehead]

That sounds about right. I can most certainly do that…for a price. Don’t say that because you’re only tempt me more to do it. I would not mind doing it. If I had money like that. But enough about me, how was your Summer Christmas?

[deepestshadeofblack]

I'm not paying you anything! You'll teach me for free and you'll fucking love it. Leo...it isn't wise to test me, you should know that by now. Well then find someone who can and make this happen for me. My Summer Christmas was fabulous! Tiring but worth it. I almost didn't come back but y'know, I had to grace you all with my presence.

Oh yeah, totally. It was called the Kardashian cult. They even put me on a diet and gave me butt implants. My dad is a dick and, uh, lied to me about the trip being a family thing. Well, it was for him and my mom. I got stuck with some Karate Kid training with a crazy old lady. Do you need me to pour ice down your back to make you feel better?

[deepestshadeofblack]

So basically, your parents went off on some second honeymoon sort of deal and you got thrown into some serious physical training. At least now you can teach me some Martial Arts stuff then? There's your silver lining. If you come near me with ice, I will make you regret the day you were born. Couldn't you just install external air conditioning all over Woodbay? That would be a blessing.

If you think that burning my feet in scorching hot coals for hours, nearly dying from dehydration, and having to listen to an hundred years old Indian woman’s crazy demands along doing them is a sexy time, then yes I did. I think that’s called global warming, Sophia.  

[deepestshadeofblack]

What the actual fuck did they have you doing out there?! Were they trying to convert you to some secret cult or something? Jesus, I thought it was just meant to be a nice family holiday. Yeah, well you can call it whatever you want it's still annoying as fuck. Real life shouldn't feel like a 24hr sauna.

[deepestshadeofblack]

[leothebonehead]

Join the club. What’s up, Princess? 

[deepestshadeofblack]

Not much, my darling, just trying to get settled...I feel like I'm on fire! I've been freezing for the last few months and it's still hot as balls here. How about you? Come back with a sexy time from lazing about under the Indian sun?

Dancing my ass off all over Russia was fucking fantastic but I'm actually semi-excited to be back here. I think I've officially lost it.

[deepestshadeofblack]

Love this song far too much not to choreograph to it. 

[leothebonehead]

I am definitely not ready for tomorrow.

[leothebonehead]

I am surprised that all of it seems vague to you, my dirty fairy godmother. Oi, if you two end up in jail, I will consider about bailing you girls out. I’ll try to bring back a tiger cub…however you might end up looking like a crazy cat lady with all these felines around you. Mhmm.

[deepestshadeofblack]

YOU DELAYED YOUR TRIP BECAUSE YOU WERE TOO BUSY FUCKING ANDIE?! You better bail us out, baggy orange jumpsuits are not a good look. A tiger cub  will be perfect, now help me find a name. I'll just look mega fierce in comparison to all the sad people of Woodbay walking their nondescript dogs. 

[leothebonehead]

I am definitely not ready for tomorrow.

[leothebonehead]

…And I was afraid that you were going to say that. Fine, but the least you could do is make sure Andie kill anyone while I am gone. I have a feeling that she might. How did that not make sense? I am just going to India with my family…

[deepestshadeofblack]

I'll do my best to keep her in check...unless we come up with a really fun way to kill whoever it is, then all bets are off. Not the part about India, the really vague part about things that made you delay the trip. Bring me back a tiger, please and thank you. 

[leothebonehead]

I am definitely not ready for tomorrow.

[leothebonehead]

The hell? I was supposed to leave weeks ago but I got, uh, distracted with something so now I have to go tomorrow or else. And now I officially hate that I have to go. Please do not break into my place while I am gone…

[deepestshadeofblack]

Well of course I'm breaking into your place, whether you're there or not is completely inconsequential...and you just said a lot of vague things that didn't really make sense in the beginning there but I'll let that slide. Are you 100% sure, you can't get out of this one?

[leothebonehead]

I am definitely not ready for tomorrow.

[leothebonehead]

Maybe…kidding. I have a plane to catch tomorrow. To India. And when are you coming back exactly? 

[deepestshadeofblack]

When the fuck did you decide you were jetting off to India?! Tomorrow, I get back tomorrow. This just proves that you've got the worst timing in the world.

[leothebonehead]

I am definitely not ready for tomorrow.

[deepestshadeofblack]

I'm guessing you're not referring to my long awaited return so go ahead and fill me in.

[sayurisarchive-blog]

Jumanji is on my television,

This makes me a happy girl.

[deepestshadeofblack]

Obviously your standards have dropped since I've been away. That movie is atrocious.

[in-losersclvb]

You do realize that in a week chances are it’s gonna be freezing over here again or something, right? I’m pretty sure you’ll miss the sun. Bad luck.

[deepestshadeofblack]

You're jinxing me and I do not appreciate it. Not one bit. If I miss the sun, I'm going to find someone who can bring it back out of hiding. I've got all these new bikinis and no chance to wear them. It's ridiculous.

[deepestshadeofblack]

I'm confused. Do you want to be a ballerina or a stripper...?

...and your confusion is supposed to be my problem? As much as I love the pole, my talents are better displayed without it. Pointe shoes and opera houses are all that I see in my future.
