really amuses me when Etho and Bdubs get possessive over each other. As if anyone could take one away from the other. I fear separating them would have the same consequences as splitting an atom
you probably won’t be doing snippet asks for a bit, but here is one for when the writing process starts up again :)
you can just have one for free
But Etho still asked without thinking, "Beef?"
The man looked up from where he was hunched over, bartering with a woman selling grains in the local language. Beef looked at home here, his skin dark and his horse's tack decorated with the bright colors that accented the roofs and stalls.
His eyes found Etho's, and his eyebrows raised, clearly taking in his whole.. face situation. "Yeah, what?" Beef responded skeptically.
Etho blinked. Then he blinked again, shoulders hunching at the lack of recognition. "You- I-I— I think we've met?"
"Uh.. I don't think so." Beef replied slowly, "I'd remember someone like—" He paused, seeming to realize his original thought would be rude to say. "I'd know you, if I knew you."
Etho sucked in a breath. Let it out. A numb, distant feeling settled over him, keeping him from freaking out. "Maybe not. I- I guess not."
Etho: (overlapping) Without moving, sitting up straight uh with, you know how you do the, the O with your legs
Gem: An O with your legs?
Etho: So you have them up, right, but they're kind of folded on top of each other
Gem: Oh, you have like your, your, your ankle on your knee?
Etho: Exactly, yeah
Gem: Your ankle's on your knee, okay, yeah
Etho: This is kind of me right now
Gem: This is you
Etho: Some- something like this
Gem: Uh-huh. Boy, you'd fit right in in guess the build
Etho: Yup (laughs)
Gem: (laughs)
Etho: With, with Skizz, right?
Gem: Yeah, okay, yeah, chat I think, I think, well, I think that's typical
Etho: Uh-hum
Gem: We'll diagnose that as typical
Etho: Does it mean something or what?
Gem: No, no, no, no, no, no, no, it doesn't mean anything. It doesn't mean anything. They're just curious
Etho: Yeah. Yeah, you reposition all the time, otherwise you get sore
Gem: Okay, follow-up question from, again from the chat, has nothing to do with me. If you were to have like your dream couch, okay, in your house. What color is the couch?
Etho: What color is the couch? Well it's gotta match the place
Gem: Well yeah, but like your dream couch. Like the whole room maybe is coming together or whatever. What's the couch color?
Etho: Boy, that's a hard question
Gem: I know, it took Grian a while to answer this one
Etho: It's not like, it's not like a great answer. But it would probably be brown of some sort, just, just 'cause I don't know. I don't feel like couches should be like a feature?
Gem: Oooh, okay
Etho: More like background, right?
Gem: Yeah, no, I agree, and I do - brown is good, very natury
Etho: And like if you get a white couch. Someone - you invite someone over, there's gonna be stains
Gem: If you had said white. No, nuh-uh, no it can't be white. Well -
Etho: What's, what's your answer on that one?
Gem: Green
Etho: Green like a forest green kind of thing?
Gem: (overlapping) Like a dark green. A dark - maybe like an emerald or olive, something very deep, sprucy colored
Etho: That's a good choice 'cause that's kinda like a brown, like it's a, it's a neutral color, right?
Gem: Yeah and not like lime green, that, that'd be crazy, that'd be wild. It's gotta be still natury
Etho: Uh-hum
Gem: That's my dream. Chat, are you satisfied now? We've got our answer (laughs)
Etho: (laughs) This is what you put up all day with, weird questions like this Gem, okay
Gem: They take after the streamer, really
Etho: Right
Gem: Yeah. Yeah, I, I agree with your diagnosis, chat, I agree. I think we already knew that, but I agree, I concur
Etho: Okay now I gotta pull up the chat. What are they saying? What is this diagnosis?
Gem: (laughs) Well it's pride month Etho, so. You know there's just certain answers
Etho: You can tell by how someone sits?
Gem: No, no, no. You can't actually, to be clear. But me and Lizzie were in a call the other night and we were both sitting a certain way. And then the dads were both not sitting that way. So we started to make jokes
Etho: Were they cross-legged?
Gem: That maybe there's a correlation. No, the dads were sitting like proper in an office chair. Just normal, like feet planted, arms just on the desk, just normal sitting. At least you've got one leg up, a little bit of spice
Etho: No, no, both legs, both legs
Gem: Oh, both legs and right, both legs. Both - wait, you're cross-legged basically?
Etho: Uh not - like the legs are on top of each other, I guess
Gem: So like ankle on knee, but both, both ankles on your knee. Both ankles are on the knees
Etho: (overlapping) One, one, one ankle under knee, one on top of knee
Gem: Oh
Etho: Folded together, you know
Gem: Okay, alright. I see
Etho: What do they call that? Crisscross? Hmm
Gem: They're saying crisscross. Pretzel style
Etho: That's, that's pretty much it yeah, pretzel style
