Meet Ugly



What's worse, a socially awkward situation or a bear attack? We're putting our money on the former.


  1. Hey, that's my order! The food & drink place called out your name, but someone else has grabbed it! Of course you know this means war.
  2. Pardon our dust. When you're dumping your dustbin, or ashtray, or shaking your rug out the window, you should check that nobody's underneath you first.
  3. Where did you learn to eat like that? Someone else's table manners have exceeded your limit and you have to say something.
  4. That's MY armrest! Someone has just stuck their big caffeinated orange juice into your cupholder, or you're already locked deep in elbow-a-elbow battle.
  5. Going up... no, not you. When you're running for the elevator and the person inside accidentally(?) hits "close" instead of "open" -- but not soon enough. Enjoy the ride.
  6. You never take the last one: There is one left of this tasty treat and your hands have met--as you both try to grab for it. OF COURSE YOU KNOW THIS MEANS WAR!
  7. How long can you spend picking cereal? You're in a store and the other person in the aisle just isn't moving aside to let you get one thing.
  8. Sleep uncute: Cute in fanart, not so cute when you commandeer the shoulder of a total stranger. Hope you weren't drooling!
  9. Hi B...ro...billiam? You just enthusiastically said hi to someone who isn't who you thought it was. Cruelly, death is refusing to accept you into its sweet embrace.
  10. Wildcard! If it's a social situation it can go wrong. Use your imagination!

Wh—

( he gestures with confusion, both at the medicine seller and the drink but also the everything of this. sure, they're both waiting on drinks anyway, but they literally just ordered together. and he wants his java chip!! )

It has my name on it!

( actually, on closer inspection it says lucky, not bucky. but details. )

[Sip sip. Not a hint of shame on the Medicine Seller's face.]

Oh dear me. I hadn't realized.

[Sip sip. Utter menace to society.]

( he went out of his way to change out ingredients to get the flavor he wanted, and this is the reward for his efforts (and extra paid money)??? )

Why did you even order a regular coffee frappe if you just wanted to drink mine!

( it's not really a question because he's also learned the medicine seller acts on whims often, but still!

begrudgingly, he plucks up the coffee frappuccino that's just been placed out to fill the medicine sellers order. the straw is released from the wrapper single-handedly against the counter to assert his aggression without bringing actual violence into this (except against the straw). )

Obviously

[He wipes a stray bit of chocolate from his upper lip, handing over the coveted drink. ...At least they were little sips.]

because it tastes better if it's yours.

[Duh.]
