(Will Sil kill Tanya to stop her?
*huggles Amazinky and Silly c:)
*grins and shoves hand out the window, changing the weather in Blogland to be cold and snowy* Really? *frowns* Check again...
(*huggles back*
Well that despends on the situation. If she has another choice and isn't angry then no. If she's angry, probably.)
(*huggles Kassy* how art thou my friend?

my friend got me a choker and mints that said 'for a small penis instantly')

Awww, please?! I already walked all the way over here! *knocks* And in these shoes! *looks down at my red heeled boots and pouts*

(*mumbles* damn...,)
elix: aren't you too young to be wearing those? and fine...
*frowns* No... Maybe... Yes... Well it doesn't matter because I don't have a mother to tell me not to!
(*laughs* Take it off me.)
Felix: *frowns* but you have me and I tell you so
(I am ok, I guess, until mother comes home.
Sil, it is an army of Tanya clones.)
(An army of Tanya clones? Oh God. That'll be fun..ahhhhh that explains yesterday.)
Yeah, but... But... Ummm... *tries to come up with a good reason why I can wear them* I look good in them?
(after you take this leash off me...)
(Do you really think I'm that stupid? Necklace first.)
Felix: *smiles* sure you do...but you look perfect without them
Yeah but without them I'm too short!
(you wont take the leash off me if I do...leash first)
(Sil... Inky... JUST DO IT AT THE SAME TIME FOR GODS SAKE!)
(You want take the necklace off if I take the leash off first!)
Felix: *frowns* too short?
(I will! promise)
*kicks off shoes and tilts head right back too see Felix* See! *chokes on a snowflake*
( No you won't! You'll say 'Good. Now sit girl!')
(Would you like me to take them off, children?)
(oh will I now?)
(only I can take off the necklace)
(Yes you will! You know you will!)
Felix: *smiles* a perfect height for me to tdo this
*picks her up and kisses*
(Okay, why don't you just do it at the same time?)
(I wont! pinky promise!)
*kisses back*
Felix: *smiles* your height is cute
(-glares and tightens the leash to make her breathing a bit harder- necklace. Remove.)
(*winces* l leash)

(Remove the necklace and the leash comes off)
(*rolls eyes* fine *necklace turns to dust*)
Felix: yes, I think you are...
