015 - Munch Munch Munch (Backdated to yesterday)

[silentrunning]

[She'd expected the Castle'd pull a trick like this. She'd known it when the first strains of that slow, gooey violin music had started playing, and all the obnoxious pink hearts had started appearing everywhere. She'd even expected the box of candy. But she'd not expected the cake. And it looked so forlorn there.

So, Chell's out in the lobby, sitting on one of the sofas, with her feet up on a offee table which has suddenly decorated itself with obnoxious heart-shaped motifs, with her journal on one knee and a slice of the cake she'd found along with her candy on the other. She slowly sets down her fork with a clatter on the plate and turns to write in her journal.]

Is anyone else enjoying this amazing cake as much as I am?

[Then she goes back to eating. But as she finishes the last bite, she finds herself thinking. Man. Something fuzzy would be nice...]

Oooooh so that's what it does.

Uh, yeah, if you ate the whole thing you might feel like that all day.

[silentrunning]

[Thank god. Nora'd *giggle* read between the lines.]

I... Only ate one slice. I thought that little sad face needed to be. *Sniffle* put out of its misery...

[eat_me_beat_me]

I dunno how long it'll last, then. Who the hell knows how this castle shit works. It shouldn't last more than a day, though.

[Chell sniffles again, despondently]

Oh thank you, most wonderful of friend for sparing me from figuring out the reason for this lonely, tragic existence on my own. I... *Snifflesobsniffle* Think I will go and walk the streets of town. Maybe...Maybe it doesn't extend beyond the Castle itself.

[She sounds almost hopeful.]

[eat_me_beat_me]

Uuuuuh Okay.

[WOW that sounds totally and completely fucked up on many many levels. She's going to have to tell Mark that eating the cake is a giant N.O.P.E.]

Just... be careful, okay? And if you get too depressed you come here. I mean it! Give me a shout tomorrow to let me know if you're back to normal.
