oh wow

flowers

the kind you get from the dirt, for free

how thoughtful

I SAID, I’ll think about it

look are we gonna finish this chess game or what

mmm

idk

i kind of already have all the cows i need

so i don’t really see what i would get out of this

well you’re too late, Richard

I’m a lesbian now

WE’RE ALL LESBIANS NOW

ARE YOU HAPPY

YOU LEFT AND NOW WE’RE ALL LESBIANS AND EVERYTHING IS TERRIBLE

hang on

lemme just finish this chapter

is he wearing red tights

is this man seriously wearing red tights while he proposes at me

i dunno

i kind of have a lot on my mind right now

i have a lot of

wheat in my skirt

and that’s a whole thing

so i don’t think this is a very good idea

oh my god

oh my god Tess you did it

he actually bought a ring

shh

he’ll hear you

this is hilarious

if you can’t keep a straight face you’re going to ruin the whole thing

oh my god no i can do it i swear

ahahaha what a chump though

look at him staring at it

i will marry you if only to get my arm back

can you give me my arm back now please

and also stop kissing me on the bridge of my nose

which is like how no one has ever kissed anyone ever

look

i’m just going to be honest with you

no

hey thanks for all the kissing but you should know

you’re stepping on all the corn

and kind of ruining it

so im gonna have to ask you to leave

come on

forget the corn

run away with me

lets get married

ok that’s sweet but see

the difference between you and the corn

is that i’m still going to need this corn during the winter

this ring is

not nearly big enough to make up for your face

what

no

im totally listening

this is my listening guitar

im playing my listening song

can you fucking believe this guy

what

no

babe i wasnt laughing at you

i was just thinking of something funny that happened to me earlier today

when this idiot asked me to marry him

I SAID

BE WITH YOU

IN A MINUTE

you had fucking better not be trying to propose to me with flowers

no

im good

you go ahead

i think ill just stay here

on this bridge

by myself

babe i dont know what youre talking about

what guy

i dont even know who you mean

i always had this ring on

he’s nobody, baby

sorry i look so sad

it’s just because

i’m so disappointed

cant talk right now, weaving

cant marry anybody right now, weaving, sorry

just leave the flowers and jewelry on the floor

no shes not here

idk where she is but its not here

its somewhere else

ok good luck bye!!

ill tell her you were looking for her good luck ok bye!!!

sorry this curtains really heavy so i have to close it now

cheer up babes

i promise i’ll choose between you so soon

sooner if you stop scowling and put some smiles on those pretty faces of yours
