To Live Will be an Awfully Big Adventure

My name is Peter Pan and I am rather wonderful. I'm currently thirty years old, but that is all I'm ever going to be. I teach kindergarten and have a wonderful son. Adventures are my life and fairies are, in fact, real.

Who hurt you?

A stupid dog.  She tried to eat my shadow once, and I refused to never go near one again.

thekingcrab-sebastian:

Well, that’s the usual course of events, my friend. [chuckles] But I would hope that the woman I marry is one of my best friends and if that is the case then our marriage would be a never ending sleepover. [smiles]

Marriage just seems so very stressful.  And so very grown up.  Personally, I’ve decided that there is no room for that in my life because I’m already too old for my liking, and the best way to not turn out like an annoying grown up is to not bring in silly things like marriage.  But, if you feel that it’d be fun then... that is your opinion.

What is there to even apologize for, I suppose neither of us have done anything wrong.  We’ve just been completely ignoring one another for nearly a year.

I don’t think of it as ignoring, Wendy.  I think of it more like we both have huge responsibilities now that we’re parents and our kids take up more time.  If I were ignoring you, I would have told you before I started ignoring you that I was going to be ignoring you.  And I didn’t.  So I wasn’t.

sourpuss-sawyer:

Au contraire. If said tattoo takes all day, then I could go to London just to get a tattoo. But what will likely happen is, get there, get the tattoo, then eat dinner or something, and have a drink at a bar, or three. [laughs]

“Three drinks at one bar?  Or one drink at three bars?  Because the second one sounds like there’s more options to stumble upon an adventure, which is the best way to start one.”

wendy-waiting:

Was I just supposed to know? 

 You made yourself pretty scarce, Peter. 

The same way you expected I was to know.  Through the power of mind reading, obviously.

As did you.  But, we can keep pointing fingers and playing the blame game, or do what I make my students do and apologize and move on.

sourpuss-sawyer:

Does anyone want to take a day trip to London? I am itching for another tattoo. 

If you go to London, you can’t use all day just to get a tattoo!  If you make that trip, you need to spend it doing all sorts of adventures.  And getting a tattoo doesn’t count as one.

“Are you wearing contact lenses? They look nice.. on your eyes.”

“No, my eyes are just naturally this stunning.  I’m starting to think you might need contacts if you didn’t notice it until now.”  

[mr-peter-pan]

they-call-me-matt:

She called her dog a whore so I kidnapped it to give it a better home, so this is your brand new, sorta, not really, stolen dog. Call it whatever you want except I already named her Madonna so call her that. I’m pretty sure it’s a she.

But dogs are vicious evil creatures who try to eat you or your shadow.  Why would you ever voluntarily take one... and name it Madonna of all things?  And then passing it on is just not fair to anyone.  Especially the vile creature.

audreytheprodigy:

I’m not saying you’re an idiot, I’m just saying a smarter person would have seen that coming.

That is your version of things.  My version is that my attention was focused on something more important, and just did not happen to see this until it was too late.

Leap Day // Open

[mr-peter-pan]

thekingcrab-sebastian:

Did you know that in Ireland, Leap Day is the one day of the year that a woman can propose marriage to a man? [chuckles] Maybe I should take a trip there. 

Why would you want to get engaged though?  That means you’d eventually get married, and that does seem so very depressing to me.

wendy-waiting:

Its funny how things work out that way.

You know you’re always welcome. You could’ve called and come over any time. 

I suppose so.

You know the invitation is the same for you.  My flat might not be the biggest place, but you were still always welcome for a visit.

[mr-peter-pan]

tiffany-the-bell:

Tiffany shot Peter a death glare, but dropped her threats, “Whatever. I better not beat you up in he presence of a child. But meet me outside on the playground, 3:00pm on Tuesday, and then we’ll see. ”

“You’re going to regret those fighting words, Miss Bell.  Because we both know I’m going to win.”

I’ve been good just too busy! I got a job at the psychologist’s office..I’m working with her until she retires which hopefully isn’t too soon!! The girls have been growing like weeds and they’re talking up a storm, both of them really. Jane’s a little quieter but chatty none the less…. 

I’m surprised we haven’t ran into each other like this sooner. Town’s so small after all. *shrugs a little* 

That’s amazing, Wendy!  I hate I haven’t really gotten to see either of them.  But, I figured that with both girls, it might be a little hectic with me just randomly stopping by and throwing another two year old into the mix.

I know.  I guess we’ve both just been so wrapped up in our own lives, our paths haven’t really crossed.

The want and need to go up to all my haters from school is so high right now. Just want to go up to them and be like. ‘Oh you thought I was going to be a no body well look at me now!’ But lets get real that isn’t me.

While I do agree that does not sound like something you’d do, it still might be entertaining to watch.  So, if you ever do, let me know so I can record it.

wendy-waiting:

How have you been!?

It has.  Our birthdays, I think, were the last time we spoke.  And between Gavin and school and the holidays, I’ve really just been keeping busy, it seems.  But... you.  How are you?

“So my book club is having a get together at my house tomorrow and I can’t decide if I should make chocolate chip cookies..or if I should just buy a platter of finger foods.”

“Cookies.  Always cookies.  Nothing goes better with a story than sweets.”

tiffany-the-bell:

“Peter Pan,” the blonde gave a stern look, staring him right in the eyes, “Don’t think that just because I’m holding a baby right now doesn’t mean that I won’t come over there and beat you,” she huffed quietly, but couldn’t help but give a small laugh, “Of course you’re the most clever, and I’m sure we can make everyone know it together.”

“I would honestly like to see you try.  Would it made it easier if I held her while you beat me?” It was harder to keep an innocent expression on his face than he had originally intended, so Peter just gave up and broke into a grin.  “That’s all I want.  To get the recognition that I so deserve.”
