1/012: We are frienemies. [Dated back to a day before Larry's date kk]

[wheatdos]

[Wheatley and GLaDOS would be in the kitchen, conversing casually on the first day of their one week truce. That's right everyone, these two psychopaths are actually on a truce. Meaning that they are not going to kill each other or endanger any of the residents of Paradisa.

Wheatley and GlaDOS would be digging through one of the cabinets, looking for a pan... this place really needed to be labeled out. This truce wasn't even a forced one. Spirits would be content, and would even hold an air of amusement.]

"Hmmm... let's see- let's see. Gonna need a pan. Those are important, and... and some eggs. You need eggs to make eggs... oh and some of that... that yellow stuff."

"Of course you need eggs to make eggs, moron."

"Not a moron."

[She would bite back "moron"; that word came too easily. After searching through the cabinets, GLaDOS would eventually find some butter in the fridge, taking it out and offering it to Wheatley.]

"H-how about those little round cakes? Those can't be that difficult to make..."


[Shocked friends of GLaDOS and Wheatley, feel free to barge in on this and ask what the heck is going on!]

Comments

[wheatdos]

"Yes. Right, ok. We can do that. Let's uh... let's do that now."

[He nods, clearing his throat, ignoring the state of the kitchen. Lead the way, GLaDOS.]

[sawadeertoday]

[ She's ignoring it too.

And off she goes, expecting Wheatley to follow her as she heads immediately for the stairs, going up until they reach her room. She opens the door, heading inside and glancing at him. ]

Wait here. I won't be long.

[ Aaaand she'll shut the door, immediately stripping and about to get into her usual jumpsuit when she hesitated.

Maybe she could try something different. After all, they were going to be among humans if they went out. So she wished up a simple wide v-necked blue shirt with long sleeves and some black fitting pants. Along with some simple black shoes.

After quickly getting into those, she made to brush her hair (it was positively sticking up everywhere, and even if she wasn't really human in spirit, she had to at least look presentable if she was to be taken seriously) before coming back to the door and opening it. ]

Alright. Let's go.

SHOOOES.

[wheatdos]

[He'd just... awkwardly stand outside, not really sure what he should do with himself while he waited. He paced up and down the hallway to try to look occupied and not get any weird faces.

Standing outside of people's rooms... doesn't give you the best looks.

When she came back, he slinked back to her, and adjusted his tie. Casual clothing. He felt a little out of place. Next time he'll be sure to try to find something more casual. He already made note of it, subconsciously thinking of something in orange.

He'd nod and walk out with her.]

"There's a whole bunch of things the humans do to keep themselves occupied. Do you want to get the- uh, the cake first?"

need dem shoes

[sawadeertoday]

[ She would fiddle a bit with the sleeves and the hem of the shirt awkwardly every so often, not used to wearing different clothes as they made their way outside. ]

We could eat first. After all, we didn't really get any breakfast. And... then we could do something else. If you have ideas. [ She has no objections. Really, if she's not going to be trying to kill him for the entire week, she doesn't have anything to do.

Sad, but true. ]

Re: need dem shoes

[wheatdos]

"Ahhhhhh, I've got a few Ideas. Good ones. Yo-you know."

[/facepalm.

They exit the castle, eventually. WELCOME TO THE OUTSIDE.]

"Have you really never gone out? At all? Not even out on the grounds? That forest doesn't count either..."

[sawadeertoday]

[ She isn't so sure about these "ideas", but she decides to attempt to give him the benefit of the doubt. At least on the outside. Internally, she's hoping these ideas aren't stupid.

As soon as they exit, she seems a bit more nervous, but she quickly stifles it, although her fiddling with her clothes might become a bit more prominent. ]

No, I haven't. Besides the forest, I've stayed inside.

[wheatdos]

"Wow."

[He furrows his brow.]

"This is a problem. A problem indeed."

[One they get off the grounds, Wheatley'd probably talk about really silly things, like how different things in nature are from the lab, and how he wonders if it looked this way on earth. Skipping their walk there because the CITY IS SO MUCH MORE INTERESTING KK.

When they make it to the city, he gives a thoughtful look around. GLaDOS has probably never seen this, right?]

"So Um! Stores! Buildings... really tall things. Little houses for things, basically'zwhat they are. Can get loads of stuff. Anything you want. Need money though, but that's not a problem... Cake shop's down there."

[sawadeertoday]

[ GLaDOS would be listening, definitely, and adding in a few snarky comments when she could, but nothing outright mean like she would when they weren't on this week-long truce.

The city is another new sight. She's also looking around, curious about all of the weird human-made structures all over the place. Once he starts heading to the cake shop, she shakes the awe off and follows him. ]

They have a whole shop just for cakes? [ Okay, there might be an inkling of pleasant surprise in her attempted calm voice. Just a little. ]

[wheatdos]

"Uh... yep! All sorts. Crazy colors too. W-Wait till you see it. Haven't been in there myself, but it's that big shop. The-that...that one over there."

[He points to a corner shop. Oh... what's that overhead... is that a bird?.]

[sawadeertoday]

[ GLaDOS is quite excited about this development. Such a large shop just for cakes!

... But her eye catches glimpse of something that isn't so great.

Something evil. ]

BIRD! [ she can't help but shriek, lifting the side of Wheatley's labcoat to hide in it. She literally went in his labcoat in that respect, moving behind him and burrowing her face into his back, in his blue shirt. ] Is it gone? Is it gone yet?

[wheatdos]

"Hey, What are you!- Ah!"

[People are watching. He looks like a humpback with 4 legs. He's not really embarrassed, but he IS really confused. Until he sees the bird. Awww.]

"Uhhhhhh. Nope! Still there. Watching. But-but look it's just... watching at least! No harm done. Yet... okay nonono, I'm kidding. Bad joke, bad joke. Lets... uh... how about, how about you just-- keep doing what you're doing, and I'll walk us there. Not too far. Few steps. "

[He looks up at the little bird, watching over a ledge. Tiny little thing. Even Wheatley had to admit... it looked a little... deceptive.]

[sawadeertoday]

[ People don't matter to her, because that bird is a menace. She knew there would be a bird! Her rare trips to the outside always included a bird. Always. There was ALWAYS a bird!

Okay. Calm down, GLaDOS. She would be taking deeper breaths. ]

Alright. I'll-- I'll follow your lead. Go ahead. [ She lifts an arm to gently grip at the back of his shirt, ready to try and follow his pace. ]

[wheatdos]

"Right. Here I go. Leading. I-I'm in the lead."

[Alright, it's go time. He slowly begins to walk there, slow at first, but when he finally felt the pace with GLaDOS, he began walking with her, in sync... for the most part. This guy is clumsy ok. He stumbles more than 10 times. Any onlookers who looked too long would get a wave and a greeting.]

"H-hey, how's it going, mate?"

[Some people who saw her freak out may even give out little "aww's" and "Oh they're adorable.".]

[sawadeertoday]

[ GLaDOS felt that awkward feeling coming up again at the comments, as well as some sort of frustration. She was not adorable. She was saving herself from getting her eyes pecked out, and they should do the same. Didn't they know just how evil birds were?

If she wasn't practically invisible beneath the coat, she would be glaring at all of those stupid humans. Luckily for them, they couldn't see her frown.

As soon as they would make it into the store, she would remove herself from his lab coat and huff, crossing her arms. ]

I am not adorable. Stupid humans... [ she would be muttering under her breath. ]

[wheatdos]

"Speak for yourself, love."

[WHEATS IS A LADY KILLER OKAY. HE KNOWS HOW HANDSOME HE IS. And... upon walking up to the counter... BEHOLD.

Imagine that... times, like a million. Cause I'm not going to link a million pictures.

Even Wheatley is surprised. He didn't imagine that many. It made those spicy pancakes look really plain and unappetizing. Even though they were.]

[sawadeertoday]

[ Her sour mood suddenly vanished upon seeing all of the cakes. Her eyes widened a little and she seemed genuinely awed, crouching to see the cakes on the bottom row. ]

... Oh, wow. [ Which one does she try? They all look amazing. ] There's so many.

[ How do humans even make so many kinds of cake? ]

[wheatdos]

"Yep. Humans really have nothing better else to do with their time. But make cakes."

[The Cashier gives him a bit of a glare. He sees it, and puts his head down apologetically.]

"Uh... right. So... uh, so which one do you want?"

"If you get cupcakes, you can try more than one, ma'am."

[The Cashier says that distastefully. She's annoyed with these two. Probably the human comment.]

[sawadeertoday]

[ GLaDOS sighs. He was definitely good at getting on people's bad sides. Not like she was going to apologize on his behalf, though. She straightened up and pointed to a chocolate cake. ]

Could I have this one? [ She inquires the cashier, wanting straight-up cake. Nope. Not cupcakes.

She looked up at Wheatley curiously. ] Are you taking one?

[wheatdos]

[He slowly approaches the counter.]

"Uhhhh... yes. I'll have one...


...


...of each."

[The Cashier looks at him, shocked.]

"Uhhh... okay..."

[Swag.]

[sawadeertoday]

... That's going to be a lot of cake. [ she comments blankly, a bit shocked. GLaDOS wondered if he could even finish all of that cake, considering the sheer amount of types there was.

Then again, human males did eat more than females, but still... ]

[wheatdos]

[He nods.]

"Yeah it is. Haven't even seen half of them too."

[He looks at her.]

"...Yoooooou'll try it all with me, won't you?"

[So that's what this was all about...]

[sawadeertoday]

[ Oh.

Oh. That was what this was all about.

Not like it was a bad realization. She couldn't help but smile.

He was being such a considerate friend. It was odd. Not a bad kind of odd, though. ]

Alright. I'm not sure if I'll be able to eat it all, though.

[wheatdos]

"Neither will I. Well-- actually... maybe I could. Maybe."

[He puts his hands in his lab coat, scratching the back of his leg with his foot. Note the fact he looks uneasy. He really doesn't know what he's doing and he's trying... really hard.]

"Uhh... we can sit somewhere...! Oh. Over there. We can sit over there."

[He just points to a random seat.]

[sawadeertoday]

[ He's doing well, though. GLaDOS nods, but doesn't go there yet. ] You'll need help carrying all of those cakes.

[ She's a lot more relaxed now that they're indoors, and she was a little touched still by him ordering all of those cakes. Just so that she could try them. ]

[wheatdos]

"Pfft, no I can do it. No problem. I'm quite strong, love."

[Oh... right. He didn't think about how much cake that was... wow. The Cashier began stacking cake slice after cake slice on the counter. Wheatley let out a gasp of disbelief... when they got to the 14'th cake.]

"Alright... alright. Maybe I will need you."

[He's a little thankful she's there. He wonders if GLaDOS can tell that he didn't properly think this through.]
