Uniquely Embarrassing · 6:03pm Jul 12th, 2019
My family has watched with growing interest as Bra Quest! and Other Tales of Limestone Pie has emerged from the shadow realm of "that pony stuff daddy writes" to its current print-ready status. My Oldest has taken a particular interest in the test print that's been floating around the house for the last month, and took to bombarding me with questions such as, "Why is it called Bra Quest?" and "Is it a whole book about bras?" and "How many bras are in it?"
You detect a theme here. 
Finally, a couple days ago, Oldest succumbed to curiosity and asked for a copy. I offered the first test print. This proved acceptable. Oldest then retreated to the living room, opened it up, and began reading the table of contents aloud.
"Track Two: Louder than Hell," Oldest said with a giggle. Right, I forgot I had a swear in there. Oh well. God bless ya, Oldest.
"Track Ten: Peace Sells... But Who's Buying?" It's so funny hearing an old Megadeth song title come from the mouths of babes.
"Bonus Track: Fat Bottomed Girls?!" Ah crap. My wife immediately gives me the look. The one that, as I've realized, probably inspired my fascination with writing Limestone in the first place.
I clear my throat, put on my best BSing smile, and shrug. "It's a chapter where they're talking about the song," I say.
The raised eyebrow count increases by one. "So what else is in this book?" she asks, her voice coiled and ready.
"Well... y'know, it's kind of... coming-of-agey?"
She nods. "Coming-of-agey about a girl, right?"
"Right..."
Another nod, then she turns back to her phone. "Good. There aren't enough coming-of-age stories about girls."
"Oh, I've already read Baby Limestone Rides to War," Oldest interjects. "I think I'm going to start by reading Bra Quest!"
Sure you are, Oldest. I'll try to contain my surprise. 
That story is more adorable than embarrassing.
I remember when I par took in a bra quest once! Alpha Delta Chi never knew what hit 'em.

It’s definitely conspicuous if you don’t have the context for it, though. I had someone recently describe the title as clickbait, and I found it hard to argue.

In that vein, I suppose that the logical sequel to Bra Quest! would have to be some kind of “panty raid,” wouldn’t it?
