002 - Octopus's Garden In the Shade

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

[Today on the hot mess that is Retrospec, somebody's either fallen asleep on their keyboard or allowed their cat to play with the computer for too long, 'cause there's a solid string of this for about a minute straight.]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Garfield Logan added 3 new photos - in Huntington Avenue, Recollé
2 mins

[The first photo is a blurry image of Gar screaming, with only his head and upper chest visible. Something long and twisty is visible at the edge of the frame.

The second is a slightly less blurry image of a... realistic-looking octopus tentacle, for some reason.

The last is an image of Gar's bare chest underneath a ripped shirt, which no one ever really wanted to see, but we're all being traumatized today so just go with it. Everything looks normal up until the part where his shoulder attaches to the octopus tentacle in the previous picture.

It's kinda gross.]


AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Yeah, here, sit down.

[ Once Gar is seated, he begins going through the process, explaining as he goes, because if Gar's going to have to use this long-term, he might as well know. Put a man's sweater on, he's dressed for a day. Teach a man to put a sweater on, he's dressed for a lifetime.

He drapes the sweater on Gar's lap, then positions it so that the bottom edge is opened and the sleeve for the prosthetic is exposed in a straight drop to the floor. ]


Now just put the arm through, pull it up to your shoulder, put your other arm through, then pull it the rest of the way on like any other sweater.

[ James almost looks confused. ]

Uh, yeah, duh. That's like, what they're for.

[ James doesn't need to be told twice. He jerks the zipper of his backpack shut, swings it over his shoulder. ]

Good luck, man.

[ James leaps out the open window in one smooth motion. He lands in a quiet somersault and immediately takes off in a sprint down the block. ]
