What did you do that for?! This was way more important than some stupid dare!

That's fine. Though it is perhaps telling that Marcy's exploits are preferable.

Still, if you are hungry despite that, feel free.

[reaches for the bento and opens it]

Thanks. It was just... hard.

[cloakanddaikon.livejournal.com]

[the bento may have been made from the same ingredients as the picnic foods, but it's pretty obvious that it was specially put together. The omlettes were shaped into little solid emblems, the cylindrical rice balls were wrapped in strips of nori cut in the shape of Soul Eater, and here's far more meat than normal in the selection of simmered foods. And there are croquettes that, on close inspection, even look like tiny barrels, the occasional hint of peas or corn showing through]

That's understandable.

...You have too much time on your hands, don't you.

[cloakanddaikon.livejournal.com]

Perhaps, but I find ways to spend it appropriately.

[cardoperatedboy]

I-it's cute. I like it. Thanks.

It seemed a good way to encourage consumption of your vegetables.

[cardoperatedboy]

Oh, come on. I'm not that bad.

[cloakanddaikon.livejournal.com]

No, you aren't. Eat.

[cardoperatedboy]

[does, though he's picking through a little and paying way too much attention to the food. And eating his veggies.]

[cloakanddaikon.livejournal.com]

I have not seen you around much recently. Has something here caught your interest?

[cardoperatedboy]

No... not really. I guess I've just been killing time.

[cloakanddaikon.livejournal.com]

Does that give good experience?

[cardoperatedboy]

Extremely mediocre. Sucky drops, too.

[cloakanddaikon.livejournal.com]

In that case, it's probably best to find something else to do.

Do you know much about mushrooms?

[cardoperatedboy]

Are you talking about the Wonderland kind?

[cloakanddaikon.livejournal.com]

No. And not the culinary variety, either. The Heartless kind.

I do not think I wish to know how you are acquainted with Wonderland's mushrooms.

[cardoperatedboy]

I've heard of them.

[fiddles with food, eats sum emblem.]

I encountered some of them down in the labs. Since what supplies I had of synthesis materials had have been running low, I was thinking of playing with them. Would that be something you would be interested in?

[cardoperatedboy]

I guess so, sure. Maybe in a little while. Not right now.

...I also think seeing you playing with mushrooms could be kind of hilarious.

[cloakanddaikon.livejournal.com]

I would appreciate your help, if so.

They're mostly non-combatants, as far as the heartless go. Fighting them outright is ineffective.

[cardoperatedboy]

Sure... I'd like that.

Yeah, but it's the image of you playing.

[cloakanddaikon.livejournal.com]

I doubt that it's quite what you're envisioning.

[cardoperatedboy]

Whatcha think I'm envisioning?

[cloakanddaikon.livejournal.com]

I have spent the past to weeks around deaged campers and counsellors. I would prefer not to answer.
