May 25th: Stanton Residence

by **Will Stanton** » Tue Mar 08, 2011 7:00 pm

Will came home from the drug store with a bag.

IN said bag was a razor and some shaving cream.

He peeked inside to see if anyone was around.

by **Sara Stanton** » Tue Mar 08, 2011 7:04 pm

And someone was. Sara is sitting on the couch with Robin lieing in her lap while she plays with her.

by **Will Stanton** » Tue Mar 08, 2011 7:06 pm

"And how is our little angel? And our big one, while we're at it?" Will smiled.

by **Sara Stanton** » Tue Mar 08, 2011 7:09 pm

"We're just peachy." she smiles, looking up.

by **Will Stanton** » Tue Mar 08, 2011 7:14 pm

"Excellent!" he said, leaning over to give Sara a stubbly-kiss.

by **Sara Stanton** » Tue Mar 08, 2011 7:17 pm

"And how are you doing?" she asks, maybe a little carefully.

by **Will Stanton** » Tue Mar 08, 2011 7:25 pm

"I'm doing juuuuuust fine! Out and about, movin' and groovin'!" he said, going over to the phone and deleting the message without checking.

by **Sara Stanton** » Tue Mar 08, 2011 7:28 pm

"About that... Where were you?"

by **Will Stanton** » Tue Mar 08, 2011 7:30 pm

"Getting out and about, mostly. Can't stay cooped up in here forever! Stopped by the drug store, too."

by **Sara Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 3:40 am

"That's good!" she smiles. "Seems your talk with Professor McManus helped a bit?"

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 3:41 am

"It did, you know? Everyone's been so great with the "I trust you" and "you rock" stuff, that I'm feeling fucking fantastic," he nodded.

by **Sara Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 3:43 am

"And I'm supposed to believe that?" she sighs a little.

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 3:47 am

"Trust me. I bounce back from stuff, right? I mean, that's, like, what I'm supposed to do, right? It's my thing," he said, clicking on the light in the bathroom.

by **Sara Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 3:49 am

"No that's just what you think everyone expects from you..." she says, picking up Robin and following Will.

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 3:56 am

"But it's what I do! I was diced into tiny pieces, and I came back. I was melted, and I came back. I've been run over and crushed and burnt and fried, and I always come back."

by **Sara Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 3:59 am

"And you'll come back from this. Just... not when you keep expecting it to happen over night."

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 4:06 am

"I'm already on the way--over the crest, rolling down hill," he said, trying to open the packaging of the razor--and failing, rather miserably.

by **Sara Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 4:10 am

"You're just in a rough spot, sweetie..." she says, plucking the razor from his hands to open it for him.

"Wait, why did you buy a razor?"

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 4:17 am

"New experience! Carpe diem and all that! We're moving forward, and the best way to do it, is to do something I've never done before! Adventure!"

by **Sara Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 4:31 am

"Well I guess that explains the beard then..."

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 4:33 am

"Can't shave what you don't got!"

by **Sara Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 4:38 am

"Well... good luck I guess?" she puts on a smile.

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 4:39 am

"This is a brave new world for me! Give me a drumroll or something," he teased, lathering up...and lathering up....and lathering up...

by **Sara Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 4:42 am

"It's not gonna come off if you just slap enough shaving cream on there, you know."

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 4:51 am

"Hrm? What, what's wrong?" he asked, stopping with a good third of the can of cream on his face as he wet the razor.

by **Sara Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 4:54 am

"I could shave my legs, like, at least three times with the amount of stuff you just put on your face." she chuckles.

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 4:55 am

"Yeah, well, these aren't legs. These are manly-man hairs," he chuckled, and then scraped the razor across his face.

Hard and fast.

"YEOOOW!"

by **Sara Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 5:00 am

"Okay, I might not have manly-man hairs but I'm pretty sure you need to try that a lot slower and a lot more careful."

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 5:01 am

"Ooooo, no kidding," he whined. "Jesus, that hurt.

Alright, taaaake two..." he said, approaching more gently..and just taking off some of the top of the foam.

by **Sara Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 5:04 am

"Maybe not that careful... I might not be the best person to help you here but I'm pretty sure the razor needs to at least touch your skin."

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 5:06 am

"Cut me a LITTLE slack, this is my first time, ya know..." he grumbled.

by **Sara Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 5:19 am

"I'm sorry. Just take your time."

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 5:20 am

"Right....sorry, it's harder than it looks on TV."

by **Sara Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 5:22 am

"As you said, it's your first time trying this. I'm just trying to help."

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 5:25 am

"Right, right, OK...don't laugh," he said, pointing at the giggling Robin. "Daddy is doing tough things!"

by **Sara Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 5:27 am

"She's just cheering you on." she chuckles.

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 6:04 am

"Suuuure. She's a mocker, that one. We'll have to keep a close eye on her," he chuckled

by **Sara Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 6:21 am

"Noooo. You're not mocking Daddy, are you? No of course you're not. You're a good little girl."

by **Robin Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 6:21 am

"Buuhgaa!" she laughs.

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 12:49 pm

"Quite," Will chuckled, continuing, punctuating the effort with occasional shouts and curses as he nicked himself up.
