Notes
I could take this opportunity to present this piece as a very contrived, thoughtful exploration of the complex relationship between two fascinating fictional characters, but it's really just a place for me to dump enormous buckets of fluff/funny headcanons I have about Ma & Pa Straw. In any case, I'm very grateful to you for reading these little love vomits, and I hope they bring you as much joy as they brought me when I wrote them. :)

"When did you know?"
"That I was attracted to you? Oh man, like two seconds after I saw you. … But I think it really hit me when you saved my ass at Thriller Bark, with that whole guardian angel routine, remember?"
"Fufufu. Yes, well, I may have been showing off a bit back then."
"Alright, so when did you know?"
"That's a secret."
"What?! Nonononono, that's super uncool! You have to tell me!"
"Well…"
"Robiiiiinnnn…"
She smirked.
"… Coup de Boo."
"… No way. R-really?"
"Mmhmm."
"… C-can we make it a different moment?"
"No."
"… super uncool."
