Toys

[shadesong]

(I wrote this post at about 9:30 last night; it did not post them because LJ was being, in envoy's words, "a monkey".)

docorion shipped me his toybag.

This is a sense-making thing. He wants to be able to use said toys with me; however, he's going cross-country on a motorcycle. Needs all available space. And welcomes the opportunity to not have to explain the contents of his bag to his father or to some nosy niece or nephew.

I am permitted to look at the contents. But not to use them. The goal is to have the thought of these items and what's likely to be done with them in my head for all of March.

The bag arrived today. After putting Elayna to bed, I just-now opened it.

...

...right, then.

The goal now is to suss out a plan of behavior that will get me punished with, mmm, this, this, and this, but will still keep that, that, and, omigods, THAT, the HELL away from me...

I mean, gosh.

Just... gosh.

::laughter:: I'm somehow imagining you developing a really complicated plan of attack/behavior to achieve your goal state. With maps! And stuff. I'm not sure how this would work, but it's a great mental image.

Tactical strategy with miniatures.

Of what, 'song and Doricon, or of the toys?

[alexmegami]

Hmmm, both, maybe? :D

Picturing a Shadesong videogame with a Naughtiness bar on the top left of the screen. 'Your mission: to suss out a plan of behavior that will get you punished with, mmm, this, this, and this, but will still keep that, that, and, omigods, THAT, the HELL away from you. Level One! BE NAUGHTY!'

*videogame Shadesong skitters around and is naughty*

*docorion chases her around with various toys while she squees*

I'm suddenly picturing this looking something like the Sims with its mood bars.

Watch, someone on my friendslist is going to program this now.

It better at least work on a mac...

::laughter:: I bet he wanted to make sure that you'd see the THAT and have to spend March with thoughts of it rolling around in the back of your head.

*laugh* One of the thats, he'd actually forgotten he had....

But the others ones? Yeah.

I will be very good.

(Except when I'm not.)

One thousand quatloos!

*Wishes I could see the contents of that toybag*

Seems to me this is a beautiful case of full use being made of the power of anticipation.

As my husband and I sometimes joke:

"Oh no, Br'er Top! Don't punish me with that!

[miintikwa.livejournal.com]

Meek and biddable + Song.

Does not compute.

*hugs* :D

You realize, of course, that such behavior is tantamount to handing over an engraved invitation to use said bad-bad-way-bad toys like the Second Coming. Just sayin'.

[shadesong.livejournal.com]

Heh. You said "Second Coming". :)

[slipjig.livejournal.com]

That, too.

[crm17.livejournal.com]

What a delight you are!

[shadesong.livejournal.com]

? :)

Did not mean to cause puzzled half frown half smile. It was a delightful post from a delightful person and it made me smile more than usual.

Although now that I realize you have 750+ reading, I will be far more careful about casual comments. One casual comment a day from each of us and you would do little else.
