SOmeone please tell me I can move this through a door. I can't take it apart.

[ooc: Guess whose niece is coming tomorrow? His. Guess who puts off shopping and redecorating to the last possible moment? This guy. Also don't let him at things that are basically giant model kits.]

Juzo Sakakura Ouch
Juzo Sakakura Good luck man, you're gonna need it
Juzo Sakakura That or a huge hole in your wall

You can take anything apart if it went together at some point. The trouble is getting it back together.

Gorilla Glue is perhaps relevant to your life right now, or some woodworking skills, maybe?

[starfruitfrog]

Yuki Sato I don't want a huge hole in my wall

Yuki Sato Wait
Yuki Sato You have muscles,
don't you? You could help!

[Never mind the fact that that's not how muscles work, and even muscles can't make this bed bend enough to fit through a door.]

[starfruitfrog]

The problem is that I don't have the time to take it apart. And it'll ruin the finishing if I just do that, won't it? Not to mention the fact that I might have put this together a bit too well.

Is this punishment for leaving this to the last minute? It is, isn't it?

[manolia]

lolol, now I see how it is! Let me guess, tonight's the deadline.

Does the person you're building the bed for care that much about the finish? Unless that lovely floral-print bedding is yours, of course; it's quite pretty. [And he means it unironically, too!]

[Although it makes him remember those creepy (but oddly calming) singing flowers from that memory the month prior. That's how it goes, he guesses.]

[starfruitfrog]

Yeah. Kinda. She's on her way already.

It's not mine but thanks. And I don't know if she cares? She's a teenage girl? Do teenage girls normally care about the finish of their beds?

[seeker]

wow ok
if your door frame is three times the size of a normal one, maybe
if not, I have some bad news
have you tried getting help for it?

[starfruitfrog]

I should have gotten a bigger door when I was buying this
This was such a bad idea.
I'm trying to get help from someone with bigger muscles than me? Might as well, right? It's not like I can lift it.
Wait. Do you have muscles? How many pounds can you lift?

[seeker]

lol
cutting right to the chase
it's not a matter of being able to lift it. you have to dismantle it. it won't get out of the room otherwise

[outpunch]

Juzo Sakakura With what
Juzo Sakakura You just said that you don't want a huge hole in your wall

[starfruitfrog]

But

But I already built it and everything...
I even used a level and made sure all the joints were secure

[He doesn't want to take it apart is the real problem here. Not just plain laziness but the fact that he's proud of the way it looks and isn't sure he'd be able to keep it looking this good if he takes it apart.]

[seeker]

[She feels a little bad for him! But mostly she's questioning his foresight.]

is there a way it can stay where it is?

[starfruitfrog]

Yuki Sato With the heavy lifting
Yuki Sato Not to punch my wall?? If you could lift it, maybe I could get it into her room?

[starfruitfrog]

I built it in the living room so

I'm guessing no

[seeker]

why
did you build it in the living room?
oh my god.

[starfruitfrog]

I

I don't know
It seemed like a good idea when I was doing it
I was just putting it together to see if all the parts were there and then I kind of got carried away

[seeker]

no kidding.
this is the way i see it. you have two choices:
either she sleeps in the living room, or you dismantle the bed. it won't fit through a standard door, and even if it could, it'd be so difficult to carry that whoever was moving it would be risking serious injury.

[outpunch]

Juzo Sakakura And you think it's gonna work?
Juzo Sakakura I'm not as optimistic as you in this case
Juzo Sakakura But let's give it a try anyway
Juzo Sakakura When do you want me to come over?

[starfruitfrog]

I'll dismantle it.

I don't want Yuri to spend her first day here sleeping in the living room...it's not fair to her. Not when she's already having to go so far.

[starfruitfrog]

Yuki Sato Has anyone ever told you before that you're really nice?
Yuki Sato I've decided to take it apart though...it's not a good idea to carry it and we'd probably both get injured trying to move it. Someone else pointed that out to me.
Yuki Sato Thanks, though.
I owe you one.



Yuki Sato But if you want to help me move the pieces....?

[seeker]

hey, don't be so glum.
it's a pain in the ass, but it'll work out. i'm sure she'll appreciate it.

[starfruitfrog]

Yeah
I know it will
I really wanted her to like it and it's more important that she's happy, right?

[seeker]

it's more important that you don't kill yourself trying to move a loft bed.
but her happiness is important too.

[divine_braid]

Donald Maxwell Looks like it might be a little big for getting through a door. Good luck with that.

[starfruitfrog]

I'm kind of supposed to be taking care of her so
yeah
I probably shouldn't get hurt. That makes sense.

Thanks, by the way.
