XLII

[wilder]

[Zelos cared little about the magical kissing going on. If anything, he figured it was kind of fun, a few instances withstanding he rather not talk about. ]

[Because of that, Zelos is sitting at the table in the kitchen, paying no mind to the various nutcrackers that have been put around the room. On the table there seems to be what used to be the toaster, now disassembled with Zelos taking apart the final remaining pieces while whistling to himself without a care in the world. ]

Huh! These things sure have a lot of pieces! Oh well!

[And no. He has no idea how to put it back together again. Nor does he care]

[Really you guys should stop letting him come in here]

[OOC: Open post for all planned and unplanned kissing! Or you know, just talking]

[persequor]

What are you doing now?

[wilder]

Trying to figure out how the toaster works! [BY DESTROYING IT]

[persequor]

So how does it work?

[wilder]

With a lot of strange little parts. Like springs!

[persequor]

[ You're getting one of the strange little springs lobbed at you. ]

Stupid.

[Lloyd is here for his daily free lunch. He's got an absurd amount of szechuan beef and noodles piled on a plate the size of his head, and judging by the dent, he's already been working on it. Oblivious to the presence of the nutcrackers, he slides into a chair near his friend.]

What's that supposed to be?

[wilder]

The toaster.

[he grins at his friend, totally not regretting anything. He'll point at the dish ]

What's that?

[gentleidealist]

[...] Did you break it or something?

[Maybe he broke it on purpose.]

Szechuan beef. Perfect when it's cold outside. Actually, it's pretty good all the time.

[wilder]

Took it apart to see how it works.

[He so did. You know he did]

Huh. [Totally reaching over and grabbing a noodle from the plate to pop it into his mouth because he can ] Not bad!

[i_got_this]

[South wanders in, a little refreshed from her little vacation, and eyes the pieces on the table.]

What the hell did you do that for?

[wilder]

I was curious how it worked!

[And he was out of ideas of how to destroy stuff in here]

[i_got_this]

So. Have you figured it out yet? [She pulls a chair out, flips it around, and straddles it, picking up a coil and twisting it around in her fingers.]

[wilder]

Hmm...I figured out I'm not a technician. [So. No. ]

/gently leaves a placeholder tag

[selfless]

Zelos? [and guess who is popping her head into the kitchen when she thinks she hears a familiar voice

THIS GAL] Hello!

[she's going to come inside, but she can't see the poor dead toaster yet]

bb~

[wilder]

[He perks up when he hears that sweet voice]

Colette! Hello my darling! ♥

[selfless]

[*^* Well she'll just merrily traipse over to say a proper hello]

How are you- [oh... oh my, once she gets closer she sees the dismantled toaster and trails off mid-sentence]

Oh no, did something happen?

[wilder]

Oh- this?

Yeah, seems I took it apart.

[luthored]

[ Lana pretty much never has a reason to go inside that kitchen, considering how rarely she's actually in the castle, but she is prone to walk by it when she does!

And it's Zelos's voice that draws her attention, not to mention the out of context commentary. What? What kind of shit trouble are you causing now, you delinquent?

She takes a step back to look in. ]

What are you doing?

[wilder]

[He'll grin when he sees her, completely not regretting anything]

Taking apart the toaster!

[luthored]

Why?!

[ Walking in now, looking at this disaster. ]

[wilder]

I was curious to see how it worked.

[losttrack]

[Marceline enters the kitchen and is quickly drawn to the destruction, as minor as it is.]

...What are you doing?

[wilder]

[He'll look at this newcomer and answer brightly]

Taking the toaster apart!

[losttrack]

Sounds fun.

[She leans against the table.]

Any reason?

[wilder]

[a shrug]

Boredom and curiosity.

And I couldn't figure out how else to tamper with it.
