Friendo and Barnacle's chat thread :D

I guess it'll start with them arriving at the park in the afternoon?

Bottom, so it may be topped! I can post Friendo's part in a little, or you can go first if you wish.

Okay, so I guess I'll start! This is just the start so it's kinda short. 

*flies into the park* *folds wings* *looks around for Friendo, but doesn't see him* *sighs slightly* *leans against a tree to wait* *tosses a ball from one hand to the other anxiously*

Friendo:

*frantically sprints to park, three minutes late* *sees Barnacle a little ways down the path where the meeting spot is* *stops sprinting* *tries to walk up casually and pretend he isn't panting* *utterly fails*

*spots Friendo* *smiles* *waves excessively* Friendo! Hi! I mean... *tries desperately to remain calm and cool* Hey. *finger guns* Um, so, uh, what do you want to do? *glances around the park in an attempt to distract himself from his bright red face*

Ack sorry it took so long to respond, life has been crazy recently

~~~
Friendo:
*waves back excessively* Barnacle! *grins* *totally doesn't notice that Barnacle is blushing* Umm... well, we could see if we there's some a pickup game going on... or we could walk into town and go somewhere? or, um, something like that? *internally winces about how terrible he thinks it sounded*

yikes I'm terrible at responding quickly...

Oh, I'd love to go to town! That sounds really fun. Um. I don't really know what we'd do though. Maybe just walk around? That might be fun? Maybe. Uh, it's up to you. *cringes inwardly*

submitted by pangolin + Barnacle, age top!, this isnt gonna top is it

It's fine, I'm also terrible at responding :D

~~~

*grins more, if that's possible* Um. Yes. Going into town sounds great! *totally forgets that he's the one who suggested the idea in the first place* Um, yeah, we could walk around and stuff. Maybe we'll see something to do while were there, like a fun cafe, or, um, I dunno, something, and if we want to we can do that? *internally winces again*

submitted by Chaser & Jay, It's Jay of course!

Yeah, that sounds good! Um. Okay, so, um let's go? *begins walking on the path out of the park* *doesn't know what to do with his hands* *finally settles on putting his hands in the pockets of his jeans* *realizes he should probably say something* So, uh, do you like music? 

submitted by pangolin + Barnacle
(June 1, 2023 - 4:12 pm)

Ah, yeah, I love music. I listen to a little bit of everything, except for classic stuff, but I really like pop and rock. *rubs back of neck nervously* I'm not very good at making music though. Except with the kazoo. I'm very good at the kazoo. *laughs sheepishly*

Oh, me too! I listen to a lot of pop and rock as well. I also like musicals -- not as much as pangolin's other AE Fir, but I do like Hamilton and In The Heights. And um, the kazoo! That's wonderful. I've been learning the guitar, but I'm not very good at it yet.

submitted by pangolin + Barnacle
(June 3, 2023 - 6:54 pm)

*laughs* Oh, you like Hamilton? I've watched it several times! Skree is kinda obsessed with it. And I saw In The Heights once. It was good. And I'm not sure if you'd think the kazoo was wonderful if you had to listen to me practicing... But you do the guitar? That really is wonderful. I tried to learn it once but I was really bad at it. *starts kicking a rock as he walks along the path*

*smiles* Oh, you've seen it too? That's really cool! And I'm sure you're not that bad at the kazoo. But, uh, maybe I could show you some stuff on the guitar sometime? I mean, if you'd like that. Like I said, I'm still very much a beginner, so I don't know how good of a teacher I'd be, but... *drifts off* *laughs nervously* *looks around, just as they exit the park* So...got any ideas of what to do, or d'you just want to walk around town for a bit...?

submitted by pangolin + Barnacle
(June 6, 2023 - 5:27 pm)

Oh, I'm actually pretty good at the kazoo. You just don't want to hear kazoo music blaring from some corner of the house all the time. I'd love that! Maybe I'd be better at the guitar this time around... Um, well, if you wanted, we could get some food--I've heard of a pretty great french pastry stop near the central square--or, um, whatever you want... *blushes*
