Since everyone around here loses their minds for balls apparently

Which Disney princess would you "cuddle"?

He's a shapeshifter who is rich and has a castle. It isn't his fault that he lost his memory.

[underachievement]

How are those things related?

[quinientos]

The memory? I think it was part of the curse.

But who doesn't want to be rich and able to shed your skin and become someone new, when the time calls for it?

[underachievement]

That's horse shit. No one changes.

[quinientos]

Not on the inside, but if you're a shapeshifter, you can turn into anything you want.

[underachievement]

Like someone else's husband, as long as you sell the amnesia thing hard enough.

[quinientos]

What? No.

I meant shifting into things like a hawk or an eagle.

If you can't get a woman with your own face, it's cheating and dirty to do it as someone else's.

[underachievement]

[ well now she's mad at herself for being so Jess about this. silver lining: what better time for a bar crawl with a dude made of lightning ]

Hawks and eagles are basically the same thing.

[quinientos]

So sparrows, then. Or lynx. Some kind of animal that lets you be wild and free. That would be the benefit of shapeshifting.

[underachievement]

Pass. I do badly enough outside of the food chain.

[quinientos]

What about shapeshifting just to change little things about yourself? Taller? Different hair?

It would make hiding in plain sight very easy, too.

[underachievement]

Heels. Hair dye. Guess what I don't wear or use.

And as for hiding in plain sight, that's already easy. Kicking it up to 'very' isn't making much of a difference.

[quinientos]

I don't know how good I would look in hair dye and I'm tall enough without the heels.

When there is papers with your face on it, you would give anything to change, I promise that.

[underachievement]

[ maybe she would, maybe she wouldn't. some days she can't go to jail for tryin'. ]

Let me guess: They got the wrong guy.

[quinientos]

No, I did it, but I still want to be alive.

[underachievement]

So its worth the death penalty. [ where and whenever he hails from, stranger. good to know her lack of faith in the reps isn't completely misplaced. ]

[quinientos]

It shouldn't be, to defend yourself, but it is.

No one pays attention to the 'alive' part of 'dead or alive' when you look like me, is all.

[underachievement]

[ she's gonna take a leap here ]

Yippee ki yay, motherfucker.

[quinientos]

I don't understand what any of that means.

[Lie. He knows the last part, but not the way she says it.]

[underachievement]

[ honestly neither does she. she's never seen the movie, just the buses. ]

You're not just from another place, are you?

[quinientos]

Apparently, it's another time, seeing as it's not the 1860's, right now.
