002 - Octopus's Garden In the Shade

[thebeastwithout]

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

hey yeah i've got octopus leprosy
it's super contagious so don't look at it or touch it

i feel like they'd quarantine me and send me to the government

[digthefuzz]

that's just because you're being too creative
try to think more inside the box
like, say it's just a weird version of goosebumps

hey yeah i've got octopus bumps
it turns me red and sucker-y but don't worry it only happens when i'm cold so i'm gonna keep this coat on during gym class

[digthefuzz]

[thebeastwithout]

do you think anyone's gonna buy that

[digthefuzz]

sometimes the normal people here seem really gullibke
only time will tell??

[thebeastwithout]

well
ok
if you never see me again it's cause they carted me off to get dissected

[digthefuzz]

none of us are gonna let that happen, g-meister

[thebeastwithout]

are you gonna start a rebellion and overthrow the school and lock up all the teachers in the basement

[digthefuzz]

um i was thinking more 'get you out to safety'
than 'take on the entire school and imprison people'

[thebeastwithout]

aw man
are you sure you can't do that
i really think school would be improved if you did that

[digthefuzz]

it probably would
but some things are just too awesome to be

[thebeastwithout]

you're really disappointing me here
ok fine
i'll try it your way on monday
i still think they're gonna freak

[digthefuzz]

sorry man
but i don't know what else to suggest
good luck man

[He feels lucky that he has his own image inducer... but he's not about to volunteer that. Sorry Gar.]
