Basil W. Grubbin

*My mom looks completely bewildered* my mom:Um... I'm sorry, who are you?

*He stands up straighter, puffing out his chest* I AM BASIL W. GRUBBIN! YOUR OFFSPRING RUINED BASIL'S PROJECT DAY!

Basil's neck speaks in binary.

*Ashe shifted,glancing at his paper.*

*Basil's drawings were the weirdest thing you'd ever seen, the scribbles were not random, they were drawings of...people. Basil was drawing himself, a rubber duck, and the other 3 "perfectly random" people in his life. Basil, without looking up, said* Basil is aware of your staring. Please do not disturb Basil's process.

“ ah,sorry. “

*It's Friday afternoon, the last period before Spring Break. You're in Environmental Science, clock watching, 23 minutes until freedom. When the teacher announces a project, to be done in pairs, and must be finished by the end of the break. She's calling out the "completely random" partners. you get partnered with Basil. You reluctantly get up and sit next to him, as you sit, Basil says* Basil does not approve of this arrangement. *Before going back to drawing scribbles on his jotter*

*I have blond hair and I'm also one of the weird kids. my name is nugget. I sit next to him and swing my legs back and forth*Nugget hears you like glue! Nugget likes nuggets for the nugget cave!*I say*

*Basil looks up from his drawing, and squints at you, his face scrunched up in confusion. He takes a moment to process what you just said, then he speaks* Basil does not understand what you are saying. Could you please repeat yourself?

*Basil raises an eyebrow* Basil is all ears. What is the rule?

its about the duckys ..

*Basil's eyes widen in surprise, and he looks at the box of rubber ducks, then back at you* Basil can keep the duckies, right?

.sorry i didn't mena it like that .. i meant it in ..a way like you see the wolrd a bit diffrently and thats cool i like everything thats nit "normal"

*Basil looks back at you, his expression softening slightly* Basil has always been the "weird kid". Basil doesn't care what others think, Basil is who Basil is. And if others don't like it, they can deal with it.

*i hug you*

Basil doesn't have to do anything Basil doesn't want to do. *He mumbles, looking at you, his eyes narrowing. He seems to be sizing you up*
