Pity

Niteowl: mrs. owl was feeling so sorry for me about the meetup thing, she said i could go to PAX
Niteowl: but i was like, but all the cool people and ralph were at the NYC thing
spruce: did she catch you photoshopping yourself into that nyc group photo?
Niteowl: spruce: yes, yes she did
Niteowl: i was just saying how fricking cool it was that you guys left me a message
Niteowl: then i gave her big puppy dog eyes and said, "I, w-w-w-w-wish i was there" and did that uncontrollable chest heaving that toddlers do when they can't stop themselves from crying
Niteowl: after she had finished giving me the heimlich, I explained the effect i was going for
