So we all need a break and some fun right? Anthony and I are going to try to eat an entire cake, and there's a really nice bakery cafe thing on Pine so everyone is also invited to try. I, personally, will take any bets from someone who can finish an entire cake. Any takers?

Also I will be drinking hot sauce and coffee since somebody won't leave me alone about it :|;;;; Who wants to miss that? No one wants to miss that. I'm sure I'll laugh about it in thirty years.

3PM, that one on Pine and 4th.

[Action

No he seriously is waiting there at the cafe for anyone to join him. Because what is stupid adventures without friends?

But the more people come the better it is for the bakery owners, right? Totally. So grab a chair, get some coffee and let us all eat until we are sick. Just be prepared for commentary from the kid.]

... You like it? [It didn't make him sick or anything but he didn't expect anyone to actually like it. Then again, weirder things have happened to him lately.]

It cleer, clear-lee ought to be gross, but isn't. [He takes another sip, thoughtfully.] I guess my taste buds really have been recalibrated.

[Which is slightly unsettling, but Alex sort of expected it to be the case.]

Other-me didn't have any in his use, usual body. Taste bud-zuh, I mean. And when he was human, he was kind of nuts about food.

--How could you live without taste buds? [Matt is legit horrified. Food the best part about being alive. Food and sleep.]

I know, right?

[Alex was similarly horrified, if not more so, at that revelation about his other self.]

He didn't know what he was missing-ing, I guess, 'til he came to Earth.

D'you know any more of the story, ree, behind this now? [He gestures with his mug, and takes another sip. The concoction really is growing on him.]

No clue. He probably told Ken he did it to get a reaction out of him. [At least that's what he assumes, because he has not echoed back any incident of the flavor or anything.]

I do it all the time.

You know Ken in ree, real life? Or you just do stuff for the reaction, shun, in real life?

Both. I met him right after we both started getting echoes. He's a good kid, but he doesn't laugh enough.

[No one can accuse Alex of that; he laughs at how readily Matt says 'both.']

Are you guys the only ones remembering-ing that stuff?

There's another kid who remembers something similar. It's the three of us.

I haven't found enn, anyone who remembers the same stuff I do.

[It's kind of depressing. He should think about happier subjects.]

So. Cake.

I wish I was the only one, sometimes... [He remembered some dark shit.]

Should I start making recommendations for random flavor combinations?

Yeah, but if I'm eating-ing the whole thing, I don't wanna go too crazy with the flavors.

Is it not, like, worth it to have peep, people to compare notes with?

Chocolate cake with chili powder.

And the only ones who remember what I do are eleven and thirteen. They don't need that.

Oh. Yeah. That's pretty heavy, vee, for kids.

That kind of cake sound-zuh delicious. Bring it on.

... I wonder if they even have chili powder...

Shuh, surely they do. Like, for Mexican hot chocolate or whatever. But I'm good with a different crazy, zee, combination if not.

Edited (typo, sorry!) 2014-04-05 03:23 (UTC)

I'll check. [He will get up and order. And come back with cake. And chili powder in a couple minutes.] You have to pay later, though.

Okay, kay.

[Alex's eyes light up at the sight of the cake. It looks amazing. Too bad the frosting isn't thicker, though. (He'd be happiest if the ratio of cake to frosting were 50/50.)

He gives the cake a generous dusting of chili powder. He'd like to attack it head-on, but that wouldn't just be rude, it would be almost impossible logistically, and getting more on himself than in himself would probably disqualify him. So he cuts a slice and starts in on that.]

Huh. 's delicious.

I am glad you can offer tribute to your strange sense of taste. [Matt feels like he's meeting really weird people today...]

Try it! It's ack, actually really good.

[He shovels in a few more forkfuls and chews thoughtfully, if gracelessly.]

The chili powder makes the chocolate all, like, ex, extra-warm.

Maybe next time. I need to watch my calorie intake.

[Matt you ate an entire cake.]

Already, dee, had your daily allowance of whole cake-zuh?

[Alex grins, and goes for a second slice, with no sign of tiring yet. If anything, the first slice counted as an appetizer.]

An entire cake and too much coffee. My digestive system will not thank me for it.

Mmf.

[Trying to sound thoughtful with a mouth full of cake.]

Mine probably, lee, won't either. Though I don't feel like other me got sick from this kinda thing-ing.

Maybe you need to build up for it? Start small. Half a cake. Go fromt here.
