[[Okay, I know for a fact @kitterahsdollhouse sent an ask giving the Repairman a cookie after that M!A, but apparently Tumblr ate it. Ah, well, he’s thankful for it!]]

“Huh…” Was all Ace could manage to say, even as he pulled the yardstick out from behind the rock again. He wasn’t entirely convinced he actually had anything to do with the yardstick appearing or disappearing. “Weird. Did I REALLY do that or is this thing just magic? Where did it even go? I know you said umm… ‘hammerspace”, but what IS that?” All the while he talked, Ace stared at the yardstick, inspecting it.
“No, you did that,” the Repairman replied, pointing at Ace. “You wanna try it with one of your things?”
He chuckled at the further confusion.
“It went to your hammersp– Think of it as the world’s most convenient pocket. Out of sight, out of mind, until you need it again.”
He paused.
“You know, come to think of it, it’s kind of hard to explain…”
“So you came all the way out to the middle of nowhere to fix a crack in a… what is a wall doing out here anyway?!” Galanthus was surprised he hadn’t noticed the wall until now. He flew up to inspect it while muttering to himself, gradually getting louder until he could be overheard. “If those humans are trying to build out here, I’ll- AUGH! I don’t know what I’ll do, but I’ll do something!”
“Don’t worry about it,” he said, frantically trying to get his attention away from the Wall. He didn’t want to disturb this place any longer than he needed to. The fairy was pretty touchy about his turf, it seemed.
“No one’s building here!” he said, a little louder than he meant. “That Wall is more of a…um… reality wall…?”
Hoo boy, this would be hard to explain. He didn’t want to risk more cement over the guy’s flower.
Galanthus turned his attention from the cement to the repairman, drawn by the snap of his fingers. He watched as a bucket appeared and the cement plopped into it. It was about then Galanthus noticed the extra arm. Not exactly one for tact, he stared, “Do… do you do that… ummmm… whatever that was, often???” Galanthus asked, confused. He shook his head to clear off the confusion and his grump returned, “Was that all you came here for?”
“Eh heh heh…” the Repairman visibly shrunk back. “I…try not to do it. I know I don’t have the best form, but even that was a bit much for me…”
He blinked at the fairy’s second question.
“W-well, yeah,” he replied, glad for the change in subject, “that’s pretty much it…”
Name’s Kitterah, I wanna know how to take care of Aggie, what should I know? (Kitterah)
Here are the guidelines for taking care of a slime:
-Slimes don’t require any grooming or bathing. That said, they don’t mind going for a swim when they get the chance.
-Make sure he doesn’t get too cold, or he’ll freeze. Low temperatures won’t hurt him, but anything below freezing will. High temperatures won’t hurt him at all, but it will make it hard for him to keep his shape.
-Finally, slimes still need to eat. They can eat any sort of food you have to offer, but they do have likes and dislikes.
Sorry for the long answer, but I hope this helps, and I hope you have a good time with Aggie!thanks! also, how intelligent are they? can i teach him tricks!? *writes stuff down*
@askthefwrp Here ya go!
(She is so proud to be of help to Rep and Zelda XD
Songbird watched everything get thrown aside, she had no idea what most of it was, but startles at the jack-in-the-box and springs. Their sudden and erratic movement startled her. So was so vested in what the strange blob was doing, she almost didn’t hear the footsteps coming toward the door.
“R-r-r-r-r” She struggled to speak through her stutter, “r-r-run!” she finally managed as the doorknob jiggled.
She sat on the floor of the cage a little ways away from the bars, her head buried in her knees which were tucked to her chest, unwilling to see what would happen to the blob if he was caught.
“Hmm?”
And then he heard her say “run” and the doorknob jiggle. His eyes widened in surprise. He didn’t exactly want to be caged too.
Thinking quickly, he pulled a push broom out from behind his back and swept everything back into his hammerspace.
There was still the issue of himself, though…
Right as the door was opening, he leapt into one of the desk drawers, which closed behind him. He hoped he wouldn’t be spotted, but it was hard to say. Tropes were very fickle things.
@kitterahsdollhouse, I didn’t know you knew about slime-raising!
[[Part 2 of this bit will involve the post you mentioned me in, so don’t worry about that!]]

Ace took the yardstick then watched the repairman’s various demonstrations. The last one made him chuckle. He smirked. “I don’t think I’d be ABLE to do the last one. Let’s try…” Ace put the yardstick behind his head so it was hidden behind his back and after a few seconds he pulled it back out with a shrug. “Nothing…”
He then went to prop it on a rock which happened to hide it from the repairman’s view nor was Ace looking; but he jumped when he felt it disappear from his hand. “Ummmm…” He pulled his empty hand from behind the rock then looked to see if he had dropped it, but it was nowhere to be found. Even the shifting sands wouldn’t have been THAT quick! “How did you do that,” Ace queried, clearly mystified.
“Oh…” the Repairman said, clearly disappointed. “Maybe not…”
He was about to say something else, but he noticed Ace’s confusion over…something.
He clambered over the rock to see that…Ace had succeeded! He had found his hammerspace! He couldn’t help but smile.
“Oh, that was all you!” he exclaimed. “You found your…your hammerspace, your inventory!”
He took a second to calm down.
“…Now, just reach behind your back, or to the side…”
welp, back to the status quo as they say! ^^ want a cookie? (kitterah)
But, hey, @kitterahsdollhouse, a cookie would be nice! Thank you!
Galanthus was wiping the tears from his eyes when the repairman’s voice drew his eyes back over to the flowers, where the concrete hovered perilously over them. “Don’t move,” Galanthis shouted, then flitted away swiftly with no further explanation. He came back shortly holding the ends of a VERY large leaf… at least in comparison to Galanthus. He hovered above the repairman/s hands while the leaf was held under them, ready to catch any cement that fell. “Now what,” Galanthus asked, back to his grumpy, irritated self. “Where do you plan on putting it?
“Well,” the Repairman thought aloud, “normally I just toss it aside, but…”
He looked around at the local flora.
“…Not sure if that’s an option here. Eugh.”
He began to feel the cement seeping through his hands. He didn’t like any rocky/grainy substances in his ink, and knew this would be another trip to the cleaners.
“Hmm…”
He stroked his chin thoughtfully. He stayed like that for a moment or two, before snapping his fingers with an aha!
He used this third arm to pull out a bucket, and carefully poured the cement into it before putting it away.
He turned towards the fairy, one hand behind the back of his head.
“Heh, sorry about that. Is there any way I could…?”
And then he realized he was gesturing with three hands. He hastily absorbed one and looked at the fairy sheepishly. He hoped it wasn’t that noticeable.
