Summer Vacation Photo Album: Plastic Brandon & Plastic Abel Do Wildwood (Part 1 of 2)

(The boys insist on developing pictures the old-fashioned way, so I couldn’t post them until now.)

ARRIVAL

 

BRANDON: Is that the motel?

ABEL: Oui.

BRANDON: I’m…concerned.

ABEL: Just think of it as a really fancy hostel. Besides, the front’s not important. Look what’s around back!

 

BRANDON: Okay. That helps.

ABEL: Race ya!

BRANDON: Hold up. Sheesh. Don’t you want to relax?

 

 

BRANDON: See? This is nice.

ABEL: You just want to ogle me.

BRANDON: Guilty.

MOREY’S PIERS

 

 

ABEL: Bran.

BRANDON: Yes?

ABEL: I have an extremely important question, which you are obligated to answer immediately and without internal debate.

BRANDON: Okay.

ABEL: CAN YOU HANDLE “IT”?

BRANDON: Yeah, that would be a “no.”

ABEL: What if we liquored you up first?

BRANDON: I would not ride it on a pier. I would not ride it after beer.

ABEL: We could hold hands like you like.

BRANDON: Let’s hold hands on the Kangaroo Hopper instead.

ABEL: The wha–

 

ABEL: Fine. But you owe me so hard.

BRANDON: YAY!

ABEL: Eight tickets for this thing?

BRANDON: So worth it.

 

VINTAGE BOOKSTORE

 

ABEL: I am sincerely troubled by the dearth of Castaway Planet novelizations on these shelves.

BRANDON: Who would ever give their Castaway Planet books to a thrift store?

ABEL: Good point.

BRANDON: Ooh, Star Trek!

ABEL: OMG! I had Sanctuary. I loved that one. Chock full of Sassy!Kirk.

BRANDON: James Tiberius Kirk. The proto-Cadmus.

ABEL: DON’T YOU START, SON.

BRANDON: Just because he’s your TV boyfriend doesn’t mean you can’t acknowledge his roots.

ABEL: I’ll give you a root.

BRANDON: Later.

 

MOTEL AT SUNSET

 

ABEL: Is it just me, or did today like ROCKET by?

BRANDON: It’s not over yet.

ABEL: I like the way you think.

 

 

ABEL: I’m telling you, mohawks are sexy. My ex had one and–

BRANDON: Ugh! That’s it.

ABEL: AW DON’T TAKE IT DOWN–Brannnnn!

ABEL: How come you’re getting out?

BRANDON: My fingers are pruney. Besides…isn’t it past our bedtime?

ABEL: I believe it is, sir.

 

STAY TUNED for part 2!
