May 25th: Stanton Residence

Sara kept watching and chuckling as long as Will didn't slice himself up too bad.

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 1:09 pm

And, really, all things considered, he didn't, but there were a good twenty or twenty-five nicks and cuts, and some areas were fairly roughly shaven. But he was done.

"Ah, yes, and now, the aftershave..."

by **Sara Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 1:24 pm

"Will don't...!"

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 1:38 pm

"Hrm?"

Slap.

"YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH!"

by **Sara Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 1:48 pm

Sara winces in sympathy while Robin begins bawling because obviously something is horribly horribly wrong when Daddy screams like that.

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 2:08 pm

"Robbie Robbie Robbie," Will said, softly, still wincing. "I'm OK. Daddy's OK..."

by **Robin Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 2:28 pm

Robin keeps crying but it gets a little quieter when Will does.

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 2:44 pm

"It's OK, it's OK," Will said, scratching her under her chin.

by **Robin Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 3:02 pm

She's still unconvinced for a while but eventually she calms down.

by **Sara Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 3:03 pm

"Don't say I didn't try to warn you..." she smiles a bit crookedly.

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 3:04 pm

"That hurt like...I mean OW. What the hell is IN this stuff?"

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

"I think it's mostly just alcohol or something?"

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 3:43 pm

"Well, that's a dumb thing to put into aftershave," Will grumbled, sticking little sheets of toilet paper on the various nicks and cuts.

by **Sara Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 3:53 pm

"Only when you're still figuring how to do this whole shaving thing. Plus it smells nice!"

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 4:03 pm

"Well, good for that, then," he said, putting things away. "Though I'm not sure the toilet paper is the best look..."

by **Sara Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 4:04 pm

"I'm still not quite sure why you wanted to try that. Shaving sucks."

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 4:08 pm

"Oh, uh, you know, just, like, new experiences and what not. I'm sure I'll do better next time..."

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

"Why would you want to do that again?"

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 4:14 pm

"To prevent stubble, duh. Unless you want a ZZ top beard!"

by **Sara Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 4:37 pm

"You... never got stubble before?" she points out.

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 4:48 pm

"Yeah, well, yeah," he said, walking back out.

by **Sara Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 4:50 pm

"What kind of answer is that?" she asks, following him.

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 4:52 pm

"Well, stubble's a thing normal people deal with. I'm sure we can put up with it..."

by **Sara Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 4:56 pm

"Yeah but why would you want to?"

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 4:59 pm

"Want? Not really a matter of WANT..."

by **Sara Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 5:07 pm

"What do you mean with that?"

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 5:19 pm

"I mean, stuff just happens, and you deal with it! No biggie."

by **Sara Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 5:34 pm

"You can't shift it away, can you?" she asks, suddenly sounding worried.

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 6:08 pm

"Can't? Oh, well, you know, I probably could and all that. Never occurred to me to try," he evaded.

by **Sara Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 6:15 pm

"It never occurred to you? To shift? Why do I not believe that..."

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 6:24 pm

"Um....I dunno?" he shrugged, sheepishly.

by **Sara Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 6:33 pm

"Will... Be honest with me, please."

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 6:54 pm

"I just didn't feel like shifting...it's no big deal, Simon gets by without it, and he's got hair growing all over the place."

by **Sara Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 6:57 pm

"Have you ever not felt like shifting?"

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 6:59 pm

"Sure!

Like, uh, when I sleep.

Usually."

by **Sara Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 7:01 pm

Sara tilts her head and looks at Will.

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 7:04 pm

"What?"

by **Sara Stanton** » Thu Mar 10, 2011 3:18 am

"Fine, so you want to shave. Then why is your face still bleeding? You'd certainly want to shift that away, right?"

by **Will Stanton** » Thu Mar 10, 2011 3:22 am

"It's nothing. No need to go to drastic measures--people don't rush to the hospital for a cut."

by **Sara Stanton** » Thu Mar 10, 2011 3:30 am

"It's a two second thing! And you keep evading my question!"
