jesus
apparently taking a morning stroll through the used section of a shitty video game store constitutes suspicious behavior in these parts
nice to know random raving jackass keep me updated
christ i know its a weekday but isnt school out by now??
also heres a psa for you
even if i am a filthy hooky playing juvenile delinquent that doesnt make me a child stealer
fuckin rude
newsflash i was the one who got kidnapped and brought here against my will three months ago
obviously
who in their right mind would ever want to be stuck in canada
maybe the kid finally found a way out of this pisshole and decided not to take her douchebag parents with her
if not i hope someone finds her soon so i can look for two dollar tony hawk knockoffs in peace
this is bullshit
anyway
this isnt what i wanted to talk about
i have a question
what do you get your dad for fathers day when youre kind of strapped for cash
and also you didnt know he was your dad
and maybe you kind of have two dads
and one of them probably doesnt know hes your dad because hes like sixteen
yeah
does hallmark make singalong cards for this situation
this is kind of a new thing for me im shaky on the etiquette here

It's not embarrassing! I'm not judging you or anything, and I'm sure he wouldn't, either.

Oh hell no. You don't know him. He totally would. Fuck.

[Is it too late to duck into the crawlspace and pretend none of this ever happened?]

Well, he doesn't know! So you don't need to worry.

This was a stupid idea, maybe I shouldn't do anything. I mean, if he wanted something for Father's Day he would've called himself my dad growing up or something.

If you want to get him something, I think you should!

Are you doing anything for your dad?

I don't know what to do yet, either.

See? This is impossible, no wonder dads get shit presents like ties and screwdrivers.

Well, I'm not getting him either of those! They don't seem like things he would like. But I'm not really sure what he'd like, either.

Well, what kind of stuff does he do?

Baking and working too hard and worrying and stuff.

Okay, that sounds a hell of a lot more like John's dad than Bro. But you could like. Make him something cake-themed?

I'm really bad at baking.

No, I'm not saying you gotta make him a cake, he'd probably be better at it than you if he likes doing it. But you could get him a pillow with a cake on it. Or a tie, if you were gonna get him a tie.

Oh! Well, I don't think he's much of a tie person. Do they really have cake pillows? I've never seen one, but I've never really gone looking either.

It's a city, you could probably find anything if you don't look too hard. There are places that'll slap anything you want on a hat or a T-shirt or something for like ten bucks.

Really? Do you know where they are? I don't think he'd want a hat or T-shirt, though.

The mall? They usually have those there. It's somewhere to start, anyway.

Yeah. It's on Sunday, right?

That's what the power tool ads keep telling me.

You didn't know beforehand?

It's not something I ever had to keep track of till now.

You didn't have it back home or anything?

What, Father's Day? Nah, that was a thing, it's just me having a dad wasn't.

[...Pause.]

He wasn't your dad until you got here?
