Tiny Terzo has decided to roost with my Ibanez.

Hey, Terz? I’m gonna need that to practice with soon, buddy. I need to make sure the new strings are still in tune.

Nihil: You can say “please” and “thank you” around your toddler a thousand times, and they’ll never repeat it. But, if you say “ass-faced mother fucker” ONCE-

Toddler Secondo: Ass-face! 

Toddler Terzo: Muder fucker!

Nihil: *facepalms and sighs*

Seeing @tasty-ribz sketch of Secondo and Terzo as adorable big-eyed smols, coupled with HC I've been developing for my Terzo fic, has me thinking up all these scenarios with the lil' guys. For example-

imagine 30-ish Primo trying to make some moves on a sister out in the garden, and the little two come running up.

"Primo, he hit me!"

"I told you I would if you ate my candy!"

"You were supposed to get me one too, it wasn't fair!"

"It's not MY fault you're short!"

*both notice what Primo's doing and stop dead to stare*

"Ooooh, she's pretty!"

"Are you gonna spit in her mouth? I heard that's how you make a baby!"

Tiny Terzo guards my bass. Meanwhile, another bass gets new strings.

Tiny Terzo was an eBay find that arrived today. He’s adorable. I have him standing guard on my Sterling for scale.

My Ibanez had to have a restring today. I was curious about the half round strings. They’re interesting. Kinda feel like flat wounds but have more finger drag to them. D’Addario is the only brand I could find that carries them so this is my first set of non-Ernie Ball strings. That probably also accounts for the strange feel.

I did notice there are some marks that have formed on the fretboard. Granted, they were probably there a year ago when I bought this bass. It’s a 39 year old instrument so it’s bound to have some wear here and there. I know I’ll need to bite the bullet and re-fret the neck, but I need to do a few others before tackling this one.

Yes, I am crazy enough to attempt a fret replacement. Why not? I already rebuilt a bass (future post).

Terzo went to see the ducks, but it seems like he needs an n-a-p

Seeing @tasty-ribz sketch of Secondo and Terzo as adorable big-eyed smols, coupled with HC I've been developing for my Terzo fic, has me thinking up all these scenarios with the lil' guys. Another example--

Very young Terzo and Secondo, standing in front of a younger Sister Imperator, clearly in trouble.

Terzo:: "He called me a pussy!"

Secondo: "Well you ARE a pussy!"

Terzo: "You don't even know what a pussy is!"

Secondo: "Yes I do!"

Terzo: "Oh yeah? Well what is it then?"

Imperator: "BOYS!"

They completely ignore her.

Secondo: "I'm not telling you!"

Terzo: "Cause you don't know!"

Secondo: "Neither do you!"

Terzo: "Then how do you know I am one?" Sticks out tongue.

Imperator, silently, in her head: Some day I'm going to have the two of you killed.
