A reunion

Today was a very happy day in North Dollworld. For you to understand the happiness, I would like you to remember this:




"Sit down. you look pretty in a skirt anyway."


Andie and Rylan have been pretty much inseparable ever since Rylan came to live with us. They had been having a great time together before I tried the eye swap thing. (which Andie is still mad at me for. Seeing rylan without eyes freaked her out.) I got one of her eyes back in, but not the other. I messed up the plastic backing and was not having much luck getting it positioned. But after a while Rylan told me "It's fine, stop worrying, I'll do it myself." Her plan was to embark on a quest to visit a sacred place aways south of here where a forest spirit dwells who might help her get her eye back in. (that redhead who's name is still unknown)
So she packed her bag and walked off into the forest alone, which I didn't document because Lilly and I were too busy keeping Andie from racing after her.  If you're questioning my judgement on letting one of my dolls wander off into the woods alone, i'll remind you that 1) Rylan is the most responsible doll I know, 2) nothing wants to eat a girl made of vinyl, and 3) you have no idea how many protection spells Lilly cast on her before she left. She was practically glowing.
The weeks without Rylan had been tough on Andie. At first she spent her time frowning at the ceiling, and then a few days crying at the floor. The rest of the time she looked a mixture of bored and sad. It got to the point where whenever she was doing something other than moping around I was like WOO HOO YEAH LET'S GO TAKE A PICTURE OF THAT GREATNESS!

That was a lot of unnecessary explaining. I can do it again in Caveman Talk if you want.
RYLAN NO EYEBALLS
RYLAN LEAVE
ANDIE SAD
anyway, on with the story

The musguided adventures of Gwen - the fateful eye swap.

No. It didn't go as planned.
No, it wasn't really fateful.
No, you should not try it.

NO ONE WAS HURT! YAAAAAAAAAAAAY!

So yesterday I attempted to perform an eye swap on Lilly and Rylan. I poured hot water in their faces to get them squishy, and popped out their eyes with a wooden spoon. It wasn't until then, when I was sitting on my floor with bowls of hot water and decapitated doll bodies strewn around me that I remembered Rylan and Lilly's eyelids are different colors.

*ENORMOUS FACEPALM*
