mayfield_rpg | First Cookie || Nothing Says Home Like Chocolate Chip

A. [Action: 1487 Kramden Road, morning]

[The bed feels empty. That is his first thought upon waking, before his eyes open. His second thought is, I should make pancakes this morning. He rolls over and reaches out expecting to find his husband Chris or at least some warmth in the bed where he'd been only to find... The edge of the bed? He reaches out for Chris with his tail only to find... Nothing? He can't feel his tail! He sits up and looks behind himself. Nothing there!

Except pajamas.

He squeaks and scrambles out of the bed in this small, strange room. He opens the door and pads out into the living room and the kitchen...]

Where am I?!

B. [Action: High School, throughout the school day]

[There's another new student. At the moment, he's a little reserved, but he has a tupperware full of homemade chocolate chip cookies and he will offer one to anyone who approaches.]

C. [Action: About Town, afternoon]

[Ebony is a little lost trying to find his way home. He still has some cookies left in his tupperware if you would like to go talk to him.]

I think I'm lost.

[blink]

Uhhhh. Wow, this is your first day, dude? Haha, most people run around screaming about demanding to get back home or something.

Kraken, huh?

[Given that Beast Boy has been here since November, he ought to know by now.]

Go left over there, take two rights, then go straight, and I think there's kind of this big tree with two branches that you have to cut behind. You just look for the house with the red mailbox after that and keep following and, uh.... wait, no, blue mailbox. I think. Turn right at the blue mailbox! Then ya go down the next street and turn left towards the high school - elementary school -- ...the bar?

Wait, didja say Stevens or Bilko?

[or not]

I... Yeah... I just woke up here this morning.

[He blinks.] Uhm... Neither of those.

It started with a K, but I don't think i read it right.

...

You sure it wasn't a C?

I... [He visibly wilts.] No...

...Here, I'll go with you, dude. I'm sure I'll find it after a little.

Oh! Th-thank you!

[He seems to only now remember the cookies. He opens the tupperware and holds it out to him in offering.]

I'm Ebony.

And I'm viridian.

...Oh, I mean Beast Boy. Thanks!

[Beast Boy will happily take a few in one handful. What are manners?]

Beast Boy? That... That's a strange name. And... uhm... Why are you green? Are you a wood nymph?

Ah! I'm sorry! I don't mean to be offensive!

A what?

Nah, I'm just human. ...Most of the time, anyway. The color's kind of a weird story about lab accidents and monkey diseases.

Monkey diseases?

Haha... Uh. Yep.

Hey, I just remembered! It's all the way on the other side of town. We'd better get going.

[No Beast Boy you still don't even know the road. He bolts off anyway.]

C'mon!

Uh....

[He's going to follow, though he probably isn't as fast as you BB.]

[Beast Boy will slow down after a few moments.]

So you got everything explained to you already and all, right?

Uhm... I think so? I've at least heard part of it...

So you know all about not drinking milk and not getting droned and not blowing up weird machines in the dairy, right? Phew. No one ever gets it when I try and explain things. Dunno why.

Wha.... What about the milk?!

They poison it sometimes.

[shrug.]

What?! But you need milk to bake!

Uhhh.

Yeah, most people don't think of that.

[This actually upsets him terribly.]

What... What if I buy a cow, will it be safe then?

They... don't sell those here. You buy milk from the store; I think it's just the dairy's milk that's weird.

Oh... The milk at the store isn't from the dairy?

Guess not. No one's ever died from it.

Oh. Okay. I can live with that.

[He visibly relaxes. Baking cookies is a big deal.]

Uhh.... Yep.

[awkward pause]

So you like baking, huh?
