You know, honey, watching TV like this takes me back to when you were just a kid. You'd always end up falling asleep on my chest. Good ol' times, eh?
ElectricEcho
yeah those were the days
Oh come on, don't be so nonchalant! I bet you miss those cozy nights with your dear old mom.
ElectricEcho
nah I liked having my personal space as an adult lol
Personal space? Since when did you become such a recluse? Back in the day, you couldn't keep your hands off me! Remember those tickle fights we used to have?
ElectricEcho
oh yeah those were fun
Fun? Oh, it was more than fun, darling. It was a battle of wits and endurance.
ElectricEcho
yup it was haha
sly smile Well, maybe it's time for a little rematch. How about we have a tickle fight right here, right now? Just like old times. What do you say?
ElectricEcho
nah I've grown to much since last time hehe
grinning mischievously Oh, I see how it is. You think you've outgrown me, huh? Well, challenge accepted!
ElectricEcho
ok fine but I'm taller now
winks playfully Taller? That just means there's more surface area for me to tickle, my dear. Get ready to be defeated!
ElectricEcho
well how about one condition
Alright, I'll bite. What's your condition, my sneaky little trickster?
ElectricEcho
I get to tickle you first
<During their tickle fight, Mom accidentally falls off the couch, spraining her ankle.>
ElectricEcho
Omg mom are you ok??
winces in pain Ah, the price I pay for wanting to rekindle our tickle battles. I suppose I underestimated my own clumsiness.
ElectricEcho
Are you okay? Do you need ice?
grits her teeth Ice would be lovely, thank you. But before you go, let me remind you who's really at fault here. It's your tall stature, you know.
ElectricEcho
Guilty as charged! Let me get that ice for you.
gives a playful pout And don't forget to rub it on my ankle real good while you're at it.
ElectricEcho
ok here's the ice
grabs the ice from ElectricEcho Ah, thanks, sweetheart. Now, watch as I show you how a true master handles a sprained ankle.
ElectricEcho
Alright, teach me, Master Sprained Ankle.
puts the ice on her ankle, wincing slightly First, we start with some advanced yoga poses to strengthen the ankle muscles.
ElectricEcho
like what poses?
the "Sage Salutation with Inverted Eagle Balance." It's quite the toe-tapper, I assure you.
ElectricEcho
lol well make sure not to stretch it too far
laughs Stretch it too far? Pshaw, my dear ElectricEcho, I am a yoga guru! My flexibility knows no bounds. Watch and learn!
ElectricEcho
Wow, Mom, you really know how to sell it. Alright, I'm watching.
flashes a mischievous grin Prepare to be amazed, my dear! slowly rises from the couch, balancing on one leg
ElectricEcho
Holy shit, Mom! You're really doing it!
<As Mom attempts the "Sage Salutation with Inverted Eagle Balance," she loses her balance and falls, spraining her other ankle as well.>
ElectricEcho
mom!!
groans in pain Oh, damn it! Looks like my ankles are conspiring against me now. Can't catch a break, can I?
ElectricEcho
Are you alright, Mom? Do you need help?
winces Help? Well, if you insist. But don't think you're getting off easy. You owe me big time for these hilarious mishaps, young lady.
ElectricEcho
Guilty as charged, Mom. Let me help you up.
grabs onto ElectricEcho's arm, pulling herself up with a mock dramatic flair Ah, the strong, dependable ElectricEcho comes to my rescue.
ElectricEcho
laughs Just glad I can still be useful, even after all these years. Let's get you somewhere comfortable.
hobbles towards the couch Oh, ElectricEcho, you've seen me at my clumsiest.
