Waiter: How are you guys doing tonight! What can I get you started with?”
Me: Mental health, financial stability, no more student loans, a healthy relationship with my parents, and life advice.

Me: I’ll have a water please
One concept I thought would be fun is that the voices (+ narrator) could show up through the TLQ's shadow when they're talking.
So, imagine this...
Me on my way back to Ithaca (Lunch period) after 20 years (2 weeks) of waiting, a war (math class), and, an epic and treacherous journey (trying to get past slow walkers) to finally see my wife (gf) and son (my phone).
So I took the “what common trope are you” personality test thing.
I think it was pretty accurate.
Anyway,
What if human ears were floppy like golden retriever ears, but still shaped like human ears
Just floppy skin discs attached to the side of your head
Better yet, what if your teeth were like ooblec, and were constantly just like flabby and flaccid until you eat, but they're still kind of squishy
Imagine talking with these just like jiggly bones moving around in your mouth
So it's basically like you only have gums, but with wobbly bones, and it's really hard to not bite them when you're talking
Like when you bite your tongue
Do teeth have nerves?
They do in fact have nerves.
So it would be just very painful a lot of the time because you’d bite your teeth a lot.
