Story #43 - Five Times Larry Got New Shoes (And One Time He Didn't)

Hello everyone! This week's story is what in fanfiction is called a "five things 'fic." Basically, it involves five different events occurring, usually with a central theme and focused on around one character. It often has an added "sixth" thing that is somehow different from the other five. I've always wanted to try one, so I figured I could give it a shot on my blog. I hope you enjoy it!
