and absolutely not getting their wish. our just getting dropped lol. malicious compliance
Contains: Reese is an asshole, but what’s new?
Something that always entertained Reese was how these little people talked. Some of them talked with enough slang that made no sense to him, and others talked like they were Shakespeare. It was kind of fun to listen to the differences.
At the moment, he was lying on his stomach outside of town, watching a little festival going on. He wasn’t sure what it was about… something, something, eggs? Reese hadn’t really been paying attention when Cade had explained it to him, but he didn’t mind watching all the little people running around and having a good time. There were, like, tiny chickens that were being appraised and judged and someone had brought out a prize egg that they assured Reese was absolutely massive, and he guessed it looked pretty big in their little hands.
The true big buzz of activity in the festival was a swooper egg that Reese had brought to show off. Everyone had been impressed at the size, even though it was smaller than the chicken eggs that Reese remembered from his world.
All in all, it was a nice day out.
At least, until Reese heard a fight breaking out not far away from where he was lying down and watching. He turned his attention away from the very pleasant music and dancing to see what was going on.
Two men were getting in each other's faces, growling and shoving, and Reese waited until one of them actually attacked the other to grab them both up.
Instantly, they both started shouting at him.
“UNHAND ME YOU FOUL BEAST!”
“THIS DOESN’T CONCERN YOU, GIANT! LET GO!”
Reese grinned and dangled them both by the back of their jackets over the ground, raising his arm to make sure they could see the big drop beneath them. “You sure I should let go?”
That made both of them shut up, so Reese brought them back down closer to the ground.
“Let's be civil, hm?” Reese flashed all his teeth at them in a twisted grin. “I’d hate to ruin the festivities.”
