The 71st Song [Accidental Video]

[tangledintower]

[There’s laughing at first, familiar laughter of one Rapunzel and the not as commonly heard laughter of Charlie. Her voice is muffled at first and then a bag of flour is moved by someone and Charlie’s voice is clearer, if coming in mid sentence.]

---didn’t grab enough mint from upstairs. Oops. And we made too much pie cru---Phantom! Stop running between my feet! Crazy animal. Rapunzel, where did the apples we just cut up go?

Uh...They’re on the counter, in the big green bowl, next to the sink!

[Rapunzel laughs as Phantom runs past them again, moving to grab the bowl with the apples, moving to hand them to Charlie.]

Do you want me to grab more mint?

[Charlie takes the apples, nodding.] Just a bit. I misread the directions and am about a tablespoon short for the chocolate mint raspberry pies.

[There’s a yelp from Phantom and a brief moment where he actually appears on camera. He knows the device is on, hence him behaving like a complete idiot. And then Charlie spots it and gives it a wave. She’s clearly in a good mood.] Hi, City.

Oooh, is the camera on?

[Rapunzel smiles and waves at it, before darting off to go and grab the mint, coming back a few minutes later with the supplies.]

Do we have enough jars?

[Charlie does a quick count, looking at Rapunzel with a nod.] Yes. There’s more in the cabinet above. Also, so far? We’ve made about thirty of these. I think we need help getting rid of them. I know at least....three people who’d help. One of them is my room mate. One is Merlin and the other is Dean.

[Charlie picks one of the pie jars up and holds it up to the camera. It’s a blueberry crumble pie jar.] What do you think, Dean? That look good to you?

We better make sure to get extra for Dean...he really likes pie, after all. Oh! We should make some for Sam...and I should bring home some extras for Serrure...

[Gotta make sure the new roomie is happy, after all! She smiles and waves at the camera again.]

I can’t believe I’ve never made pie jars before... Where did you learn to do this, Charlie?

A book I got here, actually. I’ll let you borrow it. It’s---[And when Charlie reaches for the aforementioned book, the device gets bumped and shuts off, but not before displaying a large group of fresh from the oven pie jars.]

[ooc: red is Charlie, and pink is Rapunzel.]

You should make me some pies.

[tangledintower]

Well, we do have a lot of extras...

[majorcrotchgrab]

I need to sample a few before you start giving them away to people. You know. To make sure they're good.

[Know what else is in the cabinet she directed you to, Rapunzel? Detailed instructions on how to make floating lanterns. Surprise? She'll just be carefully cutting out more dough as she waits for her friend to find them.]

[tangledintower]

[There's a squeal as Rapunzel finds the instructions in the cabinet, before she rushes over and HUGS Charlie.]

You didn't! You...you are the BEST!!

action:

[charring]

[There's a laugh and a full on grin from Charlie as she carefully hugs her friend in return.] I told you I'd find them. Now it's just a matter of finding time to make them. I'm thinking we need something purple and silvery.

[She's a little hesitant to say anything (what if they're like the Mean Girls at school?), but they look like they're having such fun and she feels kind of lonely here, so she sends out a video.]

Chocolate mint raspberry? Sounds like a flavor explosion.

[video]

[tangledintower]

It's great! I'd never had it before...I didn't even know mint and raspberry would go together! Charlie's the one with the recipe for it.

You wanna try one? We made waaaaay too many.

[video]

[claimyourself]

Yeah? You'd do that? You guys don't even know me.

[rattusinfidus]

Pie?

[Peter looks ridiculously hopeful. Also, fixated.]

If--you need help disposing of that, uh--well, I'm at your service. [He bows, tinily and ridiculously.]

[tangledintower]

[She laughs, not out of malice, when he bows, grinning and nodding.]

We have far too many pies as it is...and I have the feeling we're not going to stop making them anytime soon. Your help is desperately needed.

[rattusinfidus]

'M Peter. Peter Peter pumpkin eater--

[He laughs, a little.]

I'm pretty hungry for good homemade food. So.

[worldofourown]

...Such a charming domestic scene.

Private

[tangledintower]

You. You and I need to talk.

Private

[worldofourown]

...Of what~?

Shoes? Ships? Sealing wax?

[doeswhathewants]

Did you run out of pans? Why are you using jars? [That is so odd.]

Permavideo

[tangledintower]

Charlie's idea. I know, I thought it was strange at first too, but they're really good.

[aperfectthird]

Why are you making the pies in a jar?

[tangledintower]

Why not?

[oceantrauma]

Those look really good, though I've never seen pies done that way before.

[charring]

It's fun. I'll teach you sometime.

[beifongbandit]

Sometimes I think the City needs to be able to record good smells.

voice;

[charring]

Only the good ones. I feel like this needs to be specified. [A pause. More sounds of something being chopped and an oven dinging.] Do you want to try a few of these, Toph? I think they'd go over well at the shop.

[Dean is just sort of listening to the network while he works on the Impala. He knows that Rapunzel and Charlie are talking about pie, but it's not until he hears his name, that he pokes his head out from under the hood of the car and looks at his device. He's got a smear of grease across his forehead and his hands are smeared with it.]

Sweetheart, I might marry you for a few jars of that.

[tangledintower]

[Rapunzel laughs and blushes at that, grinning at Dean.]

Marrying is optional, Dean. We got a whole bunch saved just for you. Come over whenever you want.
