closed starter for @murdrhewrote location: central park, somewhere. probably.
“alright, if everyone can just keep their cool today -- i’m looking at you specifically, dolly -- that would be great. you know what happens if you don’t.” a small pause as he looks over all of the dogs faces, one by one -- no response, of course. “that’s right. no treats and 5 minutes less of playing with the ball of awesome. correct. let’s go.” eli had finally picked up all the dogs for his evening walk, and he was ready to rock and roll.
everything was fine and dandy for about five minutes. five blissful minutes -- until one of the dogs (of course it was fucking dolly, that little monster wasn’t raised right) noticed another dog coming up ahead and started barking, riling up all the other dogs. “GOD. I AM SO SORRY. THEY USUALLY DON’T -- OH WHO AM I KIDDING, THEY DO THIS ALL THE TIME!” eli definitely had to scream. sorry, kind-stranger-with-only-one-dog.
