『 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.

[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...

[negativegate]

...Because you get to stay sitting?

[blackshadow]

Because it's not waiting.

[negativegate]

You're still serving customers.

[blackshadow]

And it's still not the same.

[negativegate]

I still say it's not that different.

[blackshadow]

It's different enough to me.

[negativegate]

How?

[blackshadow]

Because I'm selling something we made. I'm not just taking orders and passing them on to other people.

[negativegate]

Oh, so you want to be both the chef and the waiter.

[blackshadow]

Yeah- And you can still wear that Hymns of Lorelai uniform.

[negativegate]

If I wear it, so do you.

[blackshadow]

No way. I don't pull it off as well as you.

[negativegate]

I think the bunny ears look pretty good on you.

[blackshadow]

[ ...Well, maybe just to tease Rita...

He lifts the tails of his bandana up over his head like rabbit ears. Floppy ones. ]

Should I wear my bandana like this from now on, too?

[negativegate]

[She blinks--and then she laughs, because it looks so silly.]

Yeah, yeah. Tape them just like that.

[blackshadow]

[ He laughs with her and wiggles them around a bit before letting them go. ]

Sure. But then I'll have to do your hair, too...

[negativegate]

[She laughs some more!]

My hair doesn't look anything like bunny ears.

[blackshadow]

[ He really loves making her laugh! He doesn't get to joke around nearly enough--or maybe he's making up for lost time. ]

It could-

[ Just let him pick up a few clumps of hair from the top of her head. ]

[negativegate]

[It is really fun when they joke around--Rita loves seeing him laugh, too.]

They're nothing like ears, see?

[Even if she can't actually see!]
