Pip: Something... is different...
Ming: Mmm.
Pip: I just can't put my finger on it.



Ming: I did my hair. Is that it?
Pip: It's not your hair, Ming.
Ming: You did notice though, right?
Pip: Mm, yeah, very pretty.



Ming: heeeey, Pip.
Pip: What?
Ming: Since when did we have furniture?
Pip: .... Furniture? *leaps up*



Pip: That's not furniture!
Ming: No! it's a box!
Hey guys, looks like you found my box.
Ming: What's in it?
Oh, it's just for my collection.
Pip: You don't have a box collection.
*gasp* I do too!



See! Pip, that's the box you came in on top.
Pip: My box was loads prettier than that.
Ming: Noo, I remember it. You came in two boxes, one inside the other.
Yup.



Ming: Oooooh, I get it! Is that how you get pullip babies? You get a box and then put a box inside it and then POOF new friend!
.....Um. Something like that...
Ming: Wow! I just figured out the reproductive system all by myself! Go me!
Uhhhh....

- Some time later, after we've taken Ming for a long and serious talk about the facts of life and done the bulk of unpacking. -



Ming: Duuuuude, you could make me a bubblewrap dress out of all this...



Pip: Agh! Pirate! We must do battle! *whips out katana*
At least give her a chance to get out of her box, Pip...
Pip: Oh.. um.. yeah. Sorry.

*deboxes*



Pip: Ahaha!
Ming: Sweetie, put down the katana.
Pip: But she's a pirate! Ninjas and pirates must do battle.
Ming: Well sweetie, you're not really a ninja, are you? You're just a partially japanese guy who happens to be pretty handy with a ninja sword of doom.
Pip: But.. but... Wait, "sweetie"? How long have I been "sweetie"?!



Ming: OH, how could you saaaay that sweetness? After all the time we've been together..
Pip: We share a shelf, that's all.
Ming: Oh but you have to admit it's soooo much mo...
Pip: No, it's not. We share a shelf, and I'm married.



Ming: What? You never... You could have said something about it, I mean... I mean... *goes on*



?: Um, Hi? My name's Ayu, not a great name for a pirate lass, but whatever... um... Helloo? Great. First threatened by a guy who fancies himself as a ninja, then ignored and only get a few shots to myself out of a picfic supposedly devoted to my arrival.



Ayu: Oh well. Guess I'll just go shove their stuff out of the way to make way for mine. Wonder where the rum is...



Ming: Hey, is she going to steal our rum?
Pip: I think she is.... Wait, we have rum?
