I've been dreaming // open // of a true love's kiss

THE BLUE AND GREEN BELOW IS A MASTERPIECE — Jacob's attention was forced rom his mirror when he heard Atbash just outside. "Oh! Yeah, yeah, everythin's alrigh', ya' don' gotta' worry. 'Ere, maybe ya' can 'elp me!" he called, hurrying to the door and opening it up. "Okay so I 'ave a... 'm goin' out ta' see Pincher 'cause um... 'cause tha's jus' what I'm doin' tonight I guess n' anyway I was tryin' ta' decide what ta' wear. I decided on these bandages 'cause I like all the feathers n' things. But then I was tryin' on the blue sweater but I felt like it was too much blue, ya' know, so then I put on the yellow one but I wear yellow all the time so then I was thinkin' maybe I should try the green one or maybe even the pink but I think the light pink might be a li'l too... ya' know-" He knew what Jersey would call it. There was a reason he'd had the pink yarn long before he ever made a sweater from it. "Anyway, then I was thinkin' maybe I should wear a bow tie 'cause, ya' know, Pinch is real fancy all the time n' nice lookin' n' all tha' so I thought maybe that'd be nice but maybe I'm jus' thinkin' about it too much, ya' know?" he explained, holding up the bow tie to his neck as he referred to it. Was it too much? would he look like he was trying too hard? He didn't want Pincher to think he was this nervous about it. He wasn't nervous. This was going to be fun. But what if Pincher thought his pink sweater looked stupid? — BUT YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL LIKE I'VE NEVER SEEN

"SPEECH"
