Baldy Love

BALDY LOVE

Moonsong and I decided to get together for a little story! This was was inspired by a phone game in the BJD Games forum.
(You can see it here.) Viola decided to give Tinker a call...

Tinker's voicemail: I'm out of the institution now. Leave me a message and i'll call you back!
Viola: institution? oh. um. hi. this is viola... i'm calling for tinker? i guess you aren't there. well. my number is 555-1412. if you wanna call back. or... something.

Meanwhile...
Tinker: GAAAAH!! I got a voicemail, and it won't let me call back!!
DW: Why not?
Tinker: When I try to dial, it says that I can't complete the call because the service on this phone is imaginary. Oh no oh NO!!
DW: *grin* Who are you trying to call, Tinker?
Tinker: IT'S NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS! I JUST NEED TO CALL!!
DW: Heehee. Okay, you can use my phone.

Tinker: Um...oops...do I have the wrong number? I mean, is this Viola? The pretty one on the web...I mean, the one who called me? Because this is Tinker. I was just calling you back. You know. Because you called me.
Viola: OH! hi tinker! *nervous laugh* i was just... um... distracted sorry. how are you?
Tinker: Oh, who...me? Oh, I'm fine. So...yeah. What're you up to? I was just...you know. Calling you.

Viola: so... um. i saw you on DoA and, well, i think it's really cool that you are, um, bald. too, i mean. bald too.

Tinker: I know! I love being bald. Except for all the downsides. Like the fact that your ears get sunburned. And your head gets all cold, and then people with HAIR just look at you like you're crazy. Then I have to put an axe in their faces. Do you like axes?

Tinker: oh, yeah, flowers. i saw a...um...garden...once. it was nice. i'm thinking of taking a gardening class this spring. you know. just because it's so interesting.
Viola: gardening is really fun tinker! i think you'd like it! it's not just making things grow... pulling out the WEEDS is REALLY FUN!

Tinker: Oh, yeah! That'd be fun--I could use my axe for that. I could even come to your garden and pull out your weeds sometime. I mean...uh...uh...

Danu: Hey, Tinker! Is this yours? Can I use it for a pigfie photoshoot?
Tinker: What? I'm on the phone!
Danu; Yeah, but can I use it?
Tinker: Ssh! Ask later!
Danu: I'll just use it and ask you when I'm done. Say, who are you talking to, anyway?

Tinker: SSH SHH! Oh, dear. Um...Viola, I gotta go. My insane roommate just arrived. Bye!
Danu: Say, where are we, anyway? Is this the basement? I've never been in the basement. This must be it.

Later, we find Tinker contemplating a large flower he's found.
Tinker: Flowers. Hmm.

Tinker: I found this. It's from nature. It's sort of like a flower. I could smash this with my hammer.
DW: You're going to send a girl you like a smooshed cherry tomato?
Tinker: Why? Do you think she might like one of my dead bugs instead? I have a really neat dead ant in my collection.
DW: Uh...maybe we'll sit down and go internet shopping together later today.
Tinker: Oh! Good idea! Maybe they'll have exotic dead bugs.
DW: Yeeeeah. We'll talk about that.
