Ronnie groaned, looking at the gaudy, yellow leaflet with a badly cropped bug on it.
"You know that this is not a real bug, right?"
"Yup. It's just a cheap, plastic monstrosity," Lydia sat on his lap and stroked his hair. "And they have the ugliest merch I have ever seen."
"But Nona?" he leaned his head on hers.
"But Nona..." Lydia sighed heavily. "I even heard her saying Bigass Bug in her sleep this morning after you got up."
"A roadtrip it is, then," Ronnie knew when things were getting serious. He read the leaflet once again and frowned. "They've got a... Bug petting zoo? You know Princess is going to be upset if-"
"I did my research, they are actually legit?" Lydia interrupted him. Yes, she knew that if anyone kept bugs in bad conditions, Nona would go nuclear on them.
"You? Research? About bugs?" Ronnie rolled his eyes theatricallly.
"Don't be ridiculous, I asked mom!" Lydia slapped him on his arm. "She even called them, and she sounded impressed."
"If Myrna was impressed then I'm good," Ronnie nodded solemnly. While he didn't share the fear of Lydia's mother with Riley, he had tons of respect for her. And her knowledge about bugs was rivaled only by Nona's.
"It's a two hour ride. There is a leatherworker nearby who makes some nice saddles. We can use it as a cover story to surprise our Bug," Lydia knew that now they would need to also visit the leatherworker.
You know it's love when Lydia is planning a trip to look at bugs.
I thought that I'll do a little animation with Nona vibrating about Bigass Bug. And then this little scene came to my mind. I had other plans for the morning, but blorbos where very loud about bugs, who am I to oppose them 🤷♀️
For @handsignals and @woundedsoul12
You just know that Nona got those t-shirts for everyone. And matching caps. And socks. Lydia drew a line at the bathing suits, though.
