Sunshine's stupid request

[Bunny]

"No, you are not a prost---a whore," Isaac corrected his language. "You are just dressed like one. The other boys should not have to see so much of your cleavage, your legs, your arms.... You need to cover yourself more," he repeated. "If you like, I could have one of the other girls assist you." He repeated the offer he made earlier. It had only been rescinded because he had been under the impression that Mary was purposely wallowing in sin. It was purely accidental.

[Sly Cooper]

"But whores dress in like-- really bad, cheap, Salv-- va--shun Arny, clothing and wear really tacky underwear and jewelry. Sunshine dresses sexy, fabulous, good. It's not my fault all the other girls are piggies and are like not swimsuit beauty-ful." She of course severely butchered Salvation,

[Bunny]

Sunshine's objections were once again graining on Isaac. Allowances had to be made for her moronic curse, but her dress would surely have some of the boys wallowing in the sin of lust, and some of the less faithful boys wallowing in the sin of fornication. The latter would damn Sunshine's soul as well, and he had been entrusted with the spiritual wellbeing of all of the Lord's followers.

"I did not mean to sound as though I was asking," he growled. "You will dress more tastefully." Recalling her intellect he amended, "You will wear a longer dress. Maybe some other girl has an extra one." dropped the idea of having her sew her own dress, or even help another girl. She'd probably end up poking her own eye out with the needle. "Zipporah, maybe." He had no idea what size the two girls were, but they had similar builds, as the lord had given them the blessing-curse of having the bodies that boys so longed for. So maybe one of Zipporah's more tasteful gowns would suit her.

[Sly Cooper]

"But long dresses are tacky. I have good taste I know--" Then the idea left her all together. "When are the adults coming back, you suck as a babysitter."

[Bunny]

And for a moment Isaac was at a loss for words. He had already come to the conclusion that Mary was not endowed with much wisdom. But he had not understood the vast nature of her foolishness until she uttered the word 'babysitter'.

"I see," he murmured more to himself than to the blonde. Apparently, his admonition to himself earlier that he had been lax with her spiritual upbringing had been a grand understatement. "I apologize, Mary. The adults have gone to walk with our Lord for all of time, if they are judged worthy. And I fear for how you will be judged. My guidance has apparently been unsuitable for a....person like you." He bit off each of these final words as he said them, feeling as though an admission of his failure to protect her from temptation was a sin of his own.

But he would speak to his Lord about that later. Now, he knew what would be proper for her. She had wide hips for child rearing, and was clearly created for the pleasure of the flesh. It was clear, then, that she would best serve the Lord if she fulfilled her purpose. That she had not already found herself a spouse was a mild shock to Isaac, but the boy preacher didn't ponder what that meant.

The fact that she was a slut, and therefore avoided by anyone thinking of marriage, didn't occur to him.

"It is far past an appropriate time to be wed," he mused, recalling her elder age. "But you could easily offer a new follower of our God." It would be impossible for her to manage any more, with already eighteen harvests behind her. "Do you have any suitors?"

[Sly Cooper]

"Do-- I-- have-- any-- whats?" Isaac continued to use long strings of long unfimiliar words. "I don't wear suits silly goose, I wear ladies clothing," Sunshine let out obnoxiously girly giggles.

[Bunny]

"Of course you do," Isaac purred, thinking it would be prudent to not speak what his true opinion on the subject: You are not dressed like a lady. You are dressed like a harlot.

He had forgotten earlier to curb his language in order to communicate with Mary. "I meant to ask if you have any boys who would like to have your hand in marriage?" Realizing that he was still probably speaking in a tongue too advanced for the blonde confesser he amended, "Do you have anyone who would like to marry you? A boy to be your husband. A spouse. A permanent...boyfriend?" If not, he would choose one for her.

[Sly Cooper]

Sunshine had a huge ear to ear grin on her face. "Well-- there's my Jakie. He loooooooves so much he's my number one fan and we are going to have lots of babies and and and we he's sexy like me except no one is completely as sexy as me but he's totally close I mean as close as anyone can be too my level of sexiness and I like cups and and he's so smart and all I have to do is find a way to get rid of my cousin becasue he is like so jealous of all the time i spend with my Jakie and no one notices Damon I think that even though Jakie says that he wants me to go away what he really means is that he wants to have alone time with me because--" Sunshine stopped to take a breath after her long string of nonsense. "becasue he is like totally awesome and wants to woe me but is afraid to embarass me becasue he thinks I'm too good for him becasue he is just that sweet and and and--"

[Bunny]

"Yes, yes, I understand." Isaac lied. Of that gush of nonsense that spewed from her mouth he had picked up something about cups and continuous extols of 'Jakie' which he assumed was a bastardization of the holy name 'Jacob'. Mary was a fool, but he doubted that she had misunderstood him so much that she had assumed that he was asking what her favorite dish wear was, so it was clear she had affection for Jacob.

"I'll speak with him," he said, though even if Jacob shared her love he wasn't sure if he would give her to him. He wasn't entirely sure Jacob had the strength and discipline to foster Mary's soul.

[Sly Cooper]

"Oh my god oh my god oh my god if you go see him I totally want to come with you but like if you dont want me to go 'cause like you have some big secrety thing that boys have then just let him know that I love him and that I am totally working on my tan and my bikini line and and and that I love him sooooo much and that I helped make dinner even though I didn't but he thinks I did cause he told me to because I don't know why actually and and and--"

[Bunny]

"Very well," Isaac cut in awkwardly. He hadn't ever been one to interrupt someone while they were mid-sentence, but he was growing concerned that Mary would forget to breath. "I will summon Jacob in a timely manner." He turned away and started to inch back towards his bedroom to continue his nap.

"You may go," he said pointedly.

[Sly Cooper]

"But I never got an answer on whether I could go find a tree somewhere and sit in the sunshine and get a tan? I Know is and obvious yes-- but I neeeeeeeed to know." Sunshine put on her pouty face, and stuck her chest out in one direction and her shapely rear in the other.

[Bunny]

"You may retire from work for the day if that is what you are asking," Isaac told her, recalling his earlier declaration at the clearing so that he would not lose face over his nap.

Which, for the record, had been wonderful until Mary had interrupted it.

"But I do not think you can sit under a tree and get a tan. It's ---" he broke off. Arguing with her would ultimately give him nothing. "You may try."

[Sly Cooper]

Sunshine was about to leave until there was yet another knock on the door. Jacob and presumably John Peters as well, had gotten lost on the way to the girls' communal home, and decided, since they were by Isaac's house (even though the boys' communal home was right next door) to get directions. "Like Oh my god Isaac you didn't tell me there was going to be a party at your house!' Sunshine squeeled with happiness.

[Bunny]

Isaac just gave Mary a small, rather tight smile. "You may go," he repeated, even harsher than before. With that, he turned away from her, discreetly rubbed the crusties out of his eyes, before bidding, "Enter."
