『 072 』Rita's legal!

[srslynotguy]

[ Earlier in the day, this is Flynn in the kitchen in an apron with Tyr. Tyr's also in an apron. On the dining table, there's this beautifully-made cake* (Note; Flynn's supposed to be great at making food look beautiful! This is my attempt at showing that but it's not exactly amazing... JUST ASSUME IT'S BEAUTIFUL!)-]

Happy Birthday, Rita.

[ A cat-themed cake. ]

I thought I'd help Tyr with the preparations-

[ Tyr comes into view. He seems a little rushed - his hair is even messier than usual - when he announces: ]

The rest of the lunch will be done soon. There's more than enough for everyone.

[ He nods. Seeing her like this makes him feel just completely content. ]

Yeah. This is the third birthday we've spent here...

[negativegate]

Oh--you're right. It's weird, but I almost forgot...

[With how happy they are right now, she almost can't believe that she wanted to get out of the City before...]

[blackshadow]

Things have been pretty good lately, so it's easy to...

[ Tyr hasn't exactly been dreading every day he's been here, either. It's nice now... ]

[negativegate]

I'd even say really good.

[Definitely a plus. Rita feels like she could be happy just staying here forever if they could, but... She doesn't really want to think about what'll happen eventually.]

[blackshadow]

Haha. You've had that much fun lately?

[ The eventual is always sad... He knows they'll leave so...he doesn't want to think about it. ]

[negativegate]

[Rita doesn't want to think about it, either. She's not the type to run from reality, so she knows it'll happen, but-

Being realistic in this case would get in the way of their happiness.]

Haven't you? I mean, today is already great, and the bath is coming along...

[blackshadow]

[ Reality isn't going to be good to them... ]

I guess you're right... I thought you were having fun with the lemonade stands...

Also I might start cooking soon in case I disappear!

[negativegate]

[Sometimes...reality just sucks. :<

But Rita laughs at that, shaking her head in a bit of amusement.]

It would've been fun if I'd charged more. I mean, it was lemonade made by a genius mage!

Okay! :D Have fun! ♥

[blackshadow]

[ Yep... :< Tyr doesn't like it.

He laughs with her. ]

You should have charged more; you had expertise.

Thanks! :3

[negativegate]

[Tyr especially has lots of reasons... :<

But right now they're having a good time, so that's all she wants to think about.]

Exactly! Anyone buying it should've been grateful we were even selling.

Welcome back! :D

[blackshadow]

[ Yep... ._. He almost forgot how much life back home will suck...

And it's easy to forget about now. ]

Especially her on the beach... We were the best ones out here.

[ Probably a lot of sugar in their lemonade... ]

Thank you~ :3

[negativegate]

[Reality with the Soul Eater really sucks... :<

This is the best kind of distraction, though.]

I bet we were the best ones in the whole city!

[Sob, probably...the sweetest in the whole city...]

[blackshadow]

[ It does... :( Eventually forever alone... ]

We should have scoped out our competition to make sure...

[ So sugary it was gritty... ]

[negativegate]

[;^; /holds him...]

There's no way anyone's was better.

[They probably didn't dissolve it in a syrup properly!]

[blackshadow]

[ /holds back :'( ]

Then we should have stolen their customers with out lemonade.

[ Probably! Impatience...! ]

[negativegate]

[/clinging to him forever ;o;]

Maybe we should've moved our stand into the city itself...

[Exactly!! They needed lemonade immediately!]

[blackshadow]

[ /and ever and ever? :'( ]

Maybe... Next time the time comes up, we can put it outside Hymns of Lorelai.

[ To sell sell sell!! ]

[negativegate]

[/always always!! So he'll never be alone! ;^;]

That's a good plan. Between the two of us, we could both have stands in different places, too.

[Gotta make money!!]

[blackshadow]

[Ritaaaa ;~;]

Yeah- And Riou could help make it for both of us... Now that there's not a curse...

[Need to maintain sugar daddy status!!]

[negativegate]

[Tyyyyyr-!! ;3;]

We'll make Yuri help, too. Flynn's not allowed to make it, but he can sure do the selling...

[--Wait.]

Hang on, if there's no curse, why would we sell lemonade again?

[blackshadow]

[/hooooolds!!]

To make money. [Plain and simple.]

...But not like before. We can take it easy...

[negativegate]

[/clingcling!!!]

Well, yeah, but there are way better ways for us to make money.

[blackshadow]

Like what? I'm not going back to waiting.

[negativegate]

How is that worse than standing outside selling lemonade?

[blackshadow]

It's a different pace. I like it. Besides, selling to people is better than serving them...
