Make …lemonade?
"Hey, Brother, how's the harvest coming along? Want any help?"
"Oh, hey, Al. I'm almost done. You mind getting the last few from this tree? I'm bushed."
"No problem! Here, I brought you some lemonade…"
Siiip!
"…freshly squeezed from some of the lemons I saw on the counter."
"Al, those were limes."
A/N: So, since it's been so long since I last updated, well, anything, I decided to put a time-skip in. This is many years after the earlier chapters. I had decided on that with a different idea in mind for this chapter, but then I reread the rest to make sure I could match my earlier tone and this new idea sprang to mind. I'll try to get a chapter with the other idea up by the end of the month.
It's a little-known fact, at least in America, that properly-ripe limes look very similar to lemons on the outside, but retain a green interior. Apparently the Department of Health or some such governmental entity says "ripe" limes have to be green. /shrug
Also, update on BGK, if anyone still follows me for that: I have a fair bit written for it from the past couple years, but mostly a sequel set in the world of Danny Phantom. I also started a thing back in 2016, I think, where Jesa meets Newt Scamander and then they both somehow wind up in Sherwood Forest and meet Robin Hood. This was for a graphic novel writing class for my master's degree in creative writing.
God bless!
