land ho || ira&&simon
Ira had just been figuring out the final details of the finances on purchasing the house next door, and was in the midst of baking himself a congratulations (to me and gray!) pie-- strawberry rhubarb, yum-- when he saw someone out on the plot of land next door with the current landowner.
Now, that just wouldn’t do. At all.
So, freshly-baked and delicious smelling pie in hand, once the current landowner left, Ira decided to...introduce himself to his prospective neighbor, and maybe bribe him with some pie to, you know, NOT steal the land he had just figured out how he was going to pay the down payment on.
“Hi!” he said, waving at the man who was standing out in the as-of-now empty field, smiling. “You looking at the land?”
