[advocacy]

So things have been kinda rough here the past couple of weeks, huh?

[She rubs at her neck, realizing that's probably a pretty stupid thing to say.]

I don't wanna focus on it too much, but um, if there's anything anybody whose deathtolling needs, let me know? I don't have any medical training or anything like that, but I got cards? Or if you just want quiet company, I can do that, too.

[Daneca smiles a little.]

Though that goes for just about anybody, I guess. I feel like we could all use some company. Anybody know any good jokes?

It's okay, I'll totally keep your secret. Completely safe with me.

[advocacy]

Why don't I believe you?

[semifreakingnormal]

Cause this is totally public.

[advocacy]

You're such a jerk.

[semifreakingnormal]

You're the one who laughed!

[advocacy]

How could I not!? That was so bad!

[semifreakingnormal]

Hey, it was a good joke!

[advocacy]

Really?

[semifreakingnormal]

...It was a good vet joke?

[advocacy]

Gotta be honest, I think those words together contradict each other.

[semifreakingnormal]

Wow, I'm hurt.

[advocacy]

I can tell.

[semifreakingnormal]

I hide my pain really well. [Like, with big smiles.]

[advocacy]

Scott McCall: the enigma of the Barge.

[semifreakingnormal]

Yep. That's me.

Hey, it's your turn now. Joke time.

[advocacy]

Okay, okay.

[She pauses and thinks for a second.]

What's at the bottom of oceans and shivers?

[semifreakingnormal]

Ummm...I don't know, lobster? Lobsters live on the bottom, right?

[advocacy]

Nope. A nervous wreck.

[semifreakingnormal]

Uhh.

[Wait - could it - no--]

...I don't get it.

[advocacy]

It's because... you know, ships...

[It kills the joke though when you have to explain it so she's kinda unsure about this.]

[semifreakingnormal]

[Wait for it.

Wait for it.]

Oh, like a shipwreck.

[Totally killed it.]

[advocacy]

[She can't help but laugh at him.]

You got it.

[semifreakingnormal]

What, I couldn't figure out why it would shiver! [But he's a good enough sport to laugh at himself. He only gets upset when assholes like Jackson make fun of him.]

[advocacy]

Okay, let's try an easier one then.

What's an owl's favorite subject in school?

[semifreakingnormal]

I'm starting to feel like this is a quiz.

Uhhh, I don't know. Math? [The owl in Pooh was smart, right u_u]
