He gives a slow sigh as he starts to read out the article... ]
'Complete Recall on Maybelleaf's Soft and Silky Line of shampoos, after factory mishap that caused many of its products to become cross-contaminated with its line of popular 'Panic Magick' temporary hair color. While most of the bottles of contaminated product was caught and taken off the line before distribution, it has come to the company's attention that some of the mixed bottles had made it past inspection and may have been distributed to the general public. If you have found one of these bottles please contact the number below for a refund...'
[ he trails off and turns the screen towards the other two. Showing a bottle that looks identical to the one that Lapis is holding, as well as a dozen little jars of temporary violently-colored hair dyes... ]

And she'll listen silently as he reads the article, tilting her head with a low hum - squinting at the pictures as he turns the screen towards them. Yeah, those violent shades certainly match with how... aggressively yellow Husk is right now. ]
Well. [ She says with a click of her tongue, letting herself lean against her dad as she examines the bottle. ] At least we can get a refund, and it's temporary.
[ So not all terrible - ]
So after a few washes you'll stop being mustard coloured, dad.
no subject
The article is just a bitch-ass cherry on top of his shit sandwich. He stares at the HORRIBLE YELLOW and drags a clawed handle slowly down his face with a long-suffering groan. ]
Jesus fuuuuuuuuuuuuuck. I know my luck is dogshit, but it should be this fuckin' bad. How the fuck do you mess it up that badly?
[This is a nightmare. He didn't ask for any of this. ]
Well. Like fuck am I goin' outside like this.
no subject
But Lapis is right. At least the type of dye that. Somehow got mixed into the shampoo bottle is temporary dye and can wash out quickly...
So at least you aren't stuck with it for a few months...?
[ after living so long with Bad Luck-itis, Jinwoo has taken up the habit of "think of the positives"--where the positive is usually "let's imagine how this could have been worse." ]
no subject
And after a few washes it will come out, so it's not permanent. Like Jinwoo said, only a few months. [ Lapis will shift to take a look at that horribly, violent yellow that is now Husk's fur; considering their options for a moment. ]
I'll look up methods for getting dye out faster too. And if you need something, Jinwoo and I can get it for you if you really don't want to go outside.
[ ... Let's be honest, that will mostly just be Jinwoo for the moment. Lapis is still struggling to stand upright without support.
So he will have to be errand boy. ]
no subject
[ Do YOU guys want the bright yellow hair? Do you?!!
Still, the kids are offering reasonable solutions here, so he heaves out a long, tired sigh. ]
I mean. I guess it's not like I lost a leg or something. [ Because that's the logical escalation of this. Limb loss.] And fiiiine. Once it's less fuckin' obnoxiously yellow I'll head out again. Thanks, I guess.
no subject
Maybe purple, or maybe even blue...
[ he trails off quietly as he closes his laptop, tipping his head back to look at Husk with a sort of crooked, well-meaning smile. ]
I can go out and get you guys anything, Lapis is right.
Maybe I can find some sort of shampoo that's good at getting temporary dye out...
no subject
[ The words are said with a soft chuckle, a small grin directed Jinwoo's way, before she hums in agreement. ]
There should be something like that... Clarifying shampoo is meant to be good for that, so there's one option.
[ And with a gentle nudge in Husk's side; ]
So you'll be fine. It will just take a few washes until it's not as insanely bright, that's all.
no subject
[Don't listen to the Agapovs, Jinwoo. Don't let them do this to you. You're a good boy! Husk is glad for the help though, it's genuinely helpful. ]
Yeah? You think that'll work? Well. I'll give it a shot, gotta be worth it. Thanks, Kid. [That's to Jinwoo. For offering to go get it. He rolls his eyes as his daughter nudges him, heaving out a sigh. ] I'll take it. Anything's better than looking like a fuckin' Peep.
no subject
hes standing here
considering it
looking between yellow husk and red lapis .... ]
...I. Well. Lapis did mention I needed more color in my wardrobe...
[ he's trying so hard to imagine himself with purple hair right now and it's not going well.
.....could he even get his hair dyed, what would a hair dresser do about his horns.... ]
I mean, what's the worst that could happen. The product I buy being tainted with blue dye this time...
[ It's a joke but
...
it's a very real possibility isn't it
he clears his throat. ]
I'll go out now, if you two think you can handle yourselves for an hour on your own.
no subject
And dying your hair could be a fun way to introduce more colour.
[ Don't listen to them!! The Agapov's are full of awful mischief, and her grin brightens for a brief moment. ]
Plus I can always dye it for you, if you're worried.
[ Terrible. But she chuckles as Husk rolls his eyes, letting herself straighten up a little more now. ]
Peep could be a good look for you too. [ But teasing aside; ] We'll be fine, I promise. I can have a look and see if we have anything in the house in the meantime, to help make the yellow less... yellow.
no subject
I mean, yeah. There's other colours than black, y'know. It might even look good on you, you don't know unless you try.
[ He grimaces at his beloved daughter. ]
Nobody looks good in fuckin' peep yellow. Yeah, we won't burn the house down or nothin'. We can behave ourselves.
[CAN they though? ]
