THE KID MEME!

You're in a brightly-lit playroom. Chalkboards, blocks, small bookshelves, coloring stations, a small corner for reading and another for snacks and juiceboxes. There's an open door, leading outside into a playground area with sandboxes, a swingset, and a see-saw. Buttercup and Ginko are your sitters today. Have fun!

[graham get out]

[Tony looks up from the robot leg. He's such a cute kid. Ignore the icon's goatee. Sees your curiosity and awe.]

It's pretty cool, huh?

[storybreaker.livejournal.com]

[No.]

How long'd it take to make it?

[myheartglows]

I don't know. A few hours. Hey, watch this.

[And he takes a small silver ball, stands on a chair, and drops it into the contraption. holy shit it's like rolling everywhere through it like a fucking roller-coaster-maze-thing.]

[storybreaker.livejournal.com]

[WATCHES oh man that shit holy what the motherfuck-]

[Except now his fingers are twitching. Because he's getting excited, and that typically means that he's going to start taking something apart soon. BUT HEY, STILL WATCHING.]

[myheartglows]

[OMG GRINNING BECAUSE HIS CONTRAPTION IS BEING AWESOME AND THE OTHER KID THINKS IT'S AWESOME ISN'T IT AWESOME.

[the ball finally rolls out at the bottom and across the floor.]

What do you think?

[storybreaker.livejournal.com]

[If he wasn't grinning before, he is now. It's an unsettling smile though.]

Went around and up and down and through the loop, twistin' and turnin' and followin' the track, I wonder how it did that, kept going for a while and then it reached the end- I don't want it to end!- But all things come to an end, yeah?

[myheartglows]

[YAY EXCITEMENT]

I can make it longer! I could make it go across the entire room! Or a loop, I could make it loop!

[storybreaker.livejournal.com]

Oh no.

Don't make it loop.

It ruins the point of endin'- everythin' ends, puttin' it off just stops what's gonna happen from happenin' right away! But you can't lie, it'll happen just the same at a different time! And you know what you're doin' then?

[Picks up the ball.]

You're just lyin' to yourself if you think you can put somethin' off forever! So start the end now, while you can see it!

[THROWS BALL AT CRITICAL SUPPORT STRUCTURE and then kicks out the other support pillar.]

[myheartglows]

[initial confusion because what the fuck are you talking about but then--OH MY GOD NO WHY]

No! Stop it! Why are you--I wanted to show my dad that!

[ahh trying to hold it together but no it just collapses and falls.]

[storybreaker.livejournal.com]

[He's still grinning like an arrogant motherfucker. Well, at least until Tony mentions his dad. Now he's frowning.]

Now you can't, can you? You can show him the pieces though!- and go "here was somethin' great dad, but it's gone now."

[myheartglows]

[this little tony is kicked puppy.

and angry.

and pushing you down.]

You could have waited!

[storybreaker.livejournal.com]

[SWEEPS YOUR LEGS OUT FROM UNDER YOU ):<]

Not everyone gets to wait!

[myheartglows]

[little tony fails at fighting so he falls. oof! this is my pout grrr face.]

You can't go around knocking down people's things without asking!

[storybreaker.livejournal.com]

If I asked, you would have said no, and then I would have been doin' somethin' you deliberately said not to do, but because you didn't say not to do it, it means I can until you say I can't!

[myheartglows]

[how does that even]

You could have done it after I left! I can't take it with me anyway!

[storybreaker.livejournal.com]

Too late now.

[kiddy business deal]

If you help me rebuild it in time for my dad to see it, you can knock it down again afterward.

[storybreaker.livejournal.com]

[Pssh. You're trying to make deals with GRAHAM here.]

Nope. I have nothin' to gain from rebuildin' somethin', built-made-solid-whole things aren't as easy to understand, so I have no interest in them!
