Good Thing They Caught Each Other, Part 25
home | Kitchener, ON, Canada | Romantic | June 14, 2016
(I have just come home from an annual anime convention that I’ve been attending for eight years, and my boyfriend has come over to see me and join my family for dinner. I’ve always been an avid Pokémon fan, while he’s not. We have a running joke where I tell him I’m going to convert him, and he tells me that he still has his soul.)
Me: *showing him everything I bought at the convention* “Look! I got a shiny Ditto plushie!”
Boyfriend: “Ditto?”
Me: “SHINY Ditto! You know how rare that is?”
Boyfriend: *takes plushie* “THIS is a Pokémon?”
Me: “Yes! That’s Ditto! It’s usually pink, but the shiny version is blue. You know your chance of encountering a shiny is 1 in 8192! So it’s super rare!”
Boyfriend: “Babe…. You’re geeking out over a shiny dildo?”
Me: *laughing* “Woah, woah, woah! [Boyfriend]!”
Boyfriend: *sputtering* “Ditto! I meant Ditto!”
Dad: *off to the side, cracking up, laughing to himself*
Me: *teasing* “I know you don’t like Pokémon, but really?!”
Boyfriend: “I- I don’t know why I just said that…”
Dad: “I bet Freud could tell you!”
