jello? jello anyone?

[negaverse]

[And so, later after that absolutely lovely end to the trial, the guests of the Murder Manor (tm) will find themselves with an invitation slipped under their doors. The handwriting is godawful but still legible, hopefully. They're not signed by anyone though. 

 

PARTY FOR THE DEAD GUY IN THE DINING ROOM

FOOD AND DRINK PROVIDED BY YOURS TRULY

Though, when you actually get there the food is.... definitely not anything you'd ever want to eat. There's chicken in jello, vegetables in jello, cake in jello. Like, nothing is free of jello.

Oh, and the drinks? Among them is a bowl labeled vodka, but it's definitely not vodka. It's actually straight up vinegar, but no one has to know that right? 

Last but not least is an absolutely lovely banner made out of a bed sheet hanging over the door that leads into the area that just says "FUCK YOU" in big letters.

Anyway, go wild. Have a awful great time.]

[Here's a squirrely face checking on up the little ones, probably slightly closer than expected, in that "oh welcome to my personal space" way.]

You look like you could use something more perky than water and bad jello.

[Thanks Doreen.]

[lostbutnotaboy]

[Mmmmm Doreen that may not be a good idea. They just got done with Sudden Meats.

She looks up at her, and rather then say anything, she's just going to... nod.

Yes, Doreen, anything would be better then strange jellos and water.]

[kickbuttseatnuts]

[Luckily, "perky" is broad enough that she can just make decaf tea and literally. Any kind of meal that doesn't include meat or jello. She can literally return with cheese and crackers and that's better than this. Which she does, sliding them over to the kid.]

Was a little worried about what Negaduck may or may not have touched. I can get something else if this isn't what you're looking for.

[lostbutnotaboy]

[The plate slides in front of her, and... frankly it does look more appetizing then random things stuck in jello. Sluggishly, she takes some cheese, a couple crackers, and starts to nibble on it.]

This is alright, thank you. [Words! Progress is happening.] To be honest, I wasn't sure what could be in that jello either.

[kickbuttseatnuts]

[She pulls up a chair next to her.]

It did seem extremely suspicious. Good eye there.

[lostbutnotaboy]

There's cake in the jello. Have you noticed that?

[Is she crazy. Did seeing a severed princess's head scar her little mind?]

[kickbuttseatnuts]

I'll give the duck one thing, he's good at making tacky nonsense that no one can enjoy.

[lostbutnotaboy]

I don't understand why someone can be just so... like that.

Then again... I don't really know any other talking ducks.

[kickbuttseatnuts]

I know this one named Howard. He's... kind of dumb, and cranky, and can't tell the difference between cats and dogs? But he's not a violent jerk.

I tell ya, if his bio's accurate, Negaduck is making doubles and clones everywhere look bad.

[lostbutnotaboy]

Howard... That's a duck name? [Huh. Learn something new every day.]

...I'll admit, I don't really know what some of it meant. [She's from the 40s, people.] But it definitely made it clear that he's evil.

[kickbuttseatnuts]

Well, he's from a world where everyone's a duck. So I guess its a human name? But for him its a duck name.

That's multiverse theory for you. Although I guess its just multiverse fact? Whatever, many versions of Earth, many ducks, yadda yadda.

[lostbutnotaboy]

"Multi...verse".

[Boy that sounds weird on her tongue.]

...Are you from the world where everyone's a squirrel?

[kickbuttseatnuts]

Not yet! Right now, I'm just cool.

[lostbutnotaboy]

I guess you could also say that you're "nutty"?

[Hahaaaa she's crying on the inside.]

[kickbuttseatnuts]

Eyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy [She finger guns at Jane]

I like the cut of your wit, Jane-o.

[lostbutnotaboy]

[Heh. She tries do the same. Never done fingerguns before.] I'm glad someone does.

I think I've gotten quite good at it since I was kidnapped by pirates.

[kickbuttseatnuts]

[Much approval for fingerguns.]

Yeah, kidnappings do wonders for someone's humor.

[lostbutnotaboy]

Especially if the pirate who kidnaps you is a big old ninny. No wonder he always gets defeated by a child.

[kickbuttseatnuts]

That's what you get for underestimating kid heroes. They'll deck you super good if you aren't careful.

[Looking at you Molly]

[lostbutnotaboy]

Well, I did throw a good few fists in my time there.

[Mostly at Peter though. Whoops.]

No one should underestimate us just because we're kids.

[kickbuttseatnuts]

Atta girl! [That's fair, Peter's a jerk.]

Growing superheroes get it pretty bad. The older folk underestimate them, the villains want to hurt 'em before they grow into bigger threats. Basically a rock and a hard place.

[lostbutnotaboy]

I wouldn't exactly call myself a "superhero" but.... I get what you mean by that. I think.

[She's trying.]
