[Video] TW for cruelty to dancing fruit.

[notyourutopian]

[It's a video feed that appears, of a counter top, and on it is a single smiling, dancing apple. It's just silently, happily bouncing in place, unaware of what is to come. After a few seconds, Eleanor's hands move into the frame, one of which is holding a paring knife.

After another moment, and with several hesitations, Eleanor picks up the apple, turns it so the face is more away from her, and starts to peel it. She's slow at first, but picks up as she gets used to it...eventually the dancing eyes are popped off, and the lips over the creepy, ever-happy mouth. But the entire time, it still wiggles and smiles in her hands. Never once does that smile fade.

Once it's peeled, she sets it back down on the counter, and even with the skin all around it, the bare apple continues to dance, smiling eyelessly now at the camera. Another few seconds of dancing, and she picks it back up and this time, starts to slice it. Slice slice slice.

It never stops dancing. Not until the last slice pops off, and all that's left is a core, is it finally still. She prods it several times with the tip of the knife, then sets the knife down and finally leans into view of the camera.]

I don't think they actually feel anything. [Her accent is a little more obvious here, probably because of the weird stress of cutting up a dancing fruit.] They don't react to anything but music and they don't ever look like they're in pain or anything.

[She picks up a slice of apple and, after a moment's hesitation, bites it.]

And they still taste normal. I imagine we're just going to have...deal with it.

[She goes to take another bite of the slice, then frowns and sets it down.]

If we can.

[And then she clicks the video off.]

You have fangs?

[longwei2go]

though my teeth are pretty sharp too

[notyourutopian]

So just go full wolfgirl then, huh?

[longwei2go]

awoo
haha

i could save a ton on bath supplies and rent

[notyourutopian]

I think I'd miss showering.
And hot food.
And warm beds.

[longwei2go]

one of those wouldnt be a problem for me ;)

[ hahaha yes it would. ]

[notyourutopian]

I don't know.
You're pretty, but are you 'sleep with the smelly wolf girl' pretty?

[longwei2go]

[ now there's a pause. ]

pretty aint the word id use

[notyourutopian]

What? Why not?

[longwei2go]

pretty is not the word you use for someone who can set off a metal detector in like twelve different ways
and has more ink in her skin than a pack of bic pens
pretty is like
pop star language

[notyourutopian]

Not really?
It's not like they get to own the word.
I'm sure there's lots of people who think you're pretty.
Hell even I'm pretty sometimes.

Heck I know boys who are pretty occasionally.

[longwei2go]

they can have the word tbh
nothing personal
i just dont think it fits me

[notyourutopian]

Right.

So...what word do you want, then?

[longwei2go]

tough is good
mean
idk throw some words out there some will stick

[notyourutopian]

Those aren't really used in the same context.
Uh.
Attractive?

[longwei2go]

sure they are
or are you saying i dont look mean or tough

[notyourutopian]

Tough, sure.

But tough or mean doesn't really make sense here.
Like

'Sure, you're mean, but are you 'sleep ith the smelly wolfgirl' mean?

Doesn't work

[longwei2go]

if you switch it out like your playing mad libs it wont

[notyourutopian]

How would you put it, then?

[longwei2go]

mean is like
a respect thing

[notyourutopian]

I don't really respect people I think are mean.
Mostly I just avoid them.
Or ignore them.

[longwei2go]

no not like THAT kind of mean its
fuck hang on



its like respecting a wild animal
in their habitat
like you KNOW they can fuck you up
but only if you like cross the line

[notyourutopian]

Dangerous

[longwei2go]

that makes me sound like a serial killer
