word association

[puzzlingly]

Word Association is a common word game involving an exchange of words that are associated together. The game is based on the noun phrase word association, meaning "stimulation of an associative pattern by a word" or "the connection and production of other words in response to a given word, done spontaneously as a game, creative technique, or in a psychiatric evaluation." ~ our lord and saviour wikipedia GUIDELINES ① post with your characters, durrrr ② include a word of your choice and optionally the definition in the body of your comment. -- visit the random word generator if you need help! ③ other characters will reply with the first word their character associates with the one you chose. ④ continue back and forth until one of you just has to know the story behind an answer.

It is. I like the fish and potatoes best, but it's nice to have something light when you know Christmas dinner will be excessive.

[And as part of a wealthy family, it's always excessive.]

I do. It's tradition. And if I tried to get out of it, my niece would knock me out like a caveman and drag me to church by my hair. Better to go willingly for family and holiday ritual than by force.

[A laugh.]

She sounds like a handful.

[such_a_teez]

She's two handfuls. But she's wonderful, I wouldn't have her any other way.

She's not your kid, of course, you wouldn't. [Jo laughs. When you can just hand the kid off at the end of the night, everything is easier.]

I live with her part of the year, so I can't always just hand her off. [Tyki grins, it's fun to chat about the pleasant part of his family life.] She's more likely to hand me off, not the other way around.

[Jo laughs at the thought.]

You think she'd kick you out of the house?

[such_a_teez]

It's her house, the rest of us just live in it.

[He's only half joking. While it's not legally hers, queen Road rules the roost.]

Sounds like you better keep her happy.
