Dual Post

[saw_the_sea]

I feel as though it is my duty to step-up and do my duty as a father in this situation.

[Event]

Isabel. Your father just opened your door at 5:00 AM. And blew a gym whistle as loud as humanly possible.

...The 'ell are ya doin'?

[saw-the-sea.livejournal.com]

Ensuring my daughter is properly prepared for the challenges she seeks out.

[azuremagma.livejournal.com]

...Is it gonna be 'ell on Earth fer 'er?

[saw-the-sea.livejournal.com]

Why would I do that to my own daughter?

[azuremagma.livejournal.com]

...That's what dad's do, from what I can tell.

[saw-the-sea.livejournal.com]

I do nothing of the sort. Everything I do with Isabel is fun and pleasant for both of us during every moment of it.

[mechanikaiser.livejournal.com]

...Uuuh...UUH! AUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGH!! AAAOOHGOD!

[saw-the-sea.livejournal.com]

...

You're a very immature individual.

[mechanikaiser.livejournal.com]

SICK BASTARD!

[saw-the-sea.livejournal.com]

I'm.

I'm not even going to bother discussing this. You're an idiot.

[azuremagma.livejournal.com]

...Ooookaaaay.

What've ya got planned then, Mr. Fun and Pleasant?

[saw-the-sea.livejournal.com]

A brisk fitness exercise.

[azuremagma.livejournal.com]

...Yeah, uh.

I'm still kinda weirded out 'ere gimme a few.

[saw-the-sea.livejournal.com]

Is everyone so much of an idiot that is the first thing they jump to?

I worded that poorly. But I assumed people weren't that stupid!

[azuremagma.livejournal.com]

I assumed people still knew 'ow ta not make comments like that without knowing full well what they were gonna be implyin'!

[saw-the-sea.livejournal.com]

I assumed people didn't immediately jump to the most idiotic possible interpretation of a statement!

[azuremagma.livejournal.com]

I'm sorry we're all thinkin' with the 'ead that ya ain't been usin' fer years. That sentence... Even normal people would flip out on it.

But no, really. 'ave fun with yer exercise thing.

... I wonder if testosterone makes guys stupid at around 20.

And I just thought "Fun and pleasant" in a slightly "lame" way, like my mother used to do with me. Before. ::Cough::

[saw-the-sea.livejournal.com]

That was the intended impression. Yes.

[sees-the-sea.livejournal.com]

"HRURGUAAAAAGH"

Isabel throws the first thing she grabs - the first thing she grabs is a lamp.

[saw-the-sea.livejournal.com]

He wasn't expecting that. But he manages to duck under it instead of getting clocked in the face by it.

[sees-the-sea.livejournal.com]

She blinks as she realizes it's Cain. "...Is the apartment on fire!? Is it aliens!? Is it Lupus!?"

[saw-the-sea.livejournal.com]

"..No."

He pauses. He's wearing a red track suit.

"...We were going to go running."

[sees-the-sea.livejournal.com]

"..."

"..."

"...you busted in here and woke me up with a WHISTLE so we could go running?!"

[saw-the-sea.livejournal.com]

"Yes."

[sees-the-sea.livejournal.com]

"...y'found out about the bet, didn't you."

[saw-the-sea.livejournal.com]

"Yes. It is my duty to ensure my only daughter isn't punched into cream cheese."

[sees-the-sea.livejournal.com]

"Hey, hey! I dunno if you noticed, but I'm pretty strong!"

[saw-the-sea.livejournal.com]

He thinks.

"I don't think they allow fireballs in these sorts of things, Isabel."

[sees-the-sea.livejournal.com]

"I'm plenty strong without fireballs!"

"I know how to like - kick and stuff!"

[saw-the-sea.livejournal.com]

"...Kick and stuff."

[sees-the-sea.livejournal.com]

"Yeah!"

[saw-the-sea.livejournal.com]

"...I have to admit that wording doesn't fill me with confidence, dear daughter of mine."

[sees-the-sea.livejournal.com]

"If you can tell me with a straight face that you know anything more about kickboxing than I do, I'll go running with you."

"Otherwise, I'm going back to sleep."

[saw-the-sea.livejournal.com]

"...I. I know it comes from Thailand."

[sees-the-sea.livejournal.com]

"..."

Isabel lays back down and pulls her covers back up. "Close the door on your way out."

[saw-the-sea.livejournal.com]

Cain nods and exits.
