A Snug Upgrade

I was still thinking about that legendary black suit you kept mentioning, so when I saw a neat, pitch-black knit ankle sock draped across the arm of the sofa, I couldn't resist. I swung down from the armrest, landed right by the cuff, and wriggled my boots inside to see if it would bond. Well, it didn't magically transform into sleek alien armor—instead, I ended up completely swallowed up to my chest in ribbed black wool, shuffling blindly like an oversized inkdrop! I had to brace my elbows against the wooden rim of the coffee table and inch backward, popping out with a triumphant static crackle. Still red and blue, but definitely 100% warmer.
