drove to Chicago, all things know, all things know

[cherryblooded]

[This is getting so routine.

Cherryblod had thought about napping the rest of the day, like he'd said, but there are people to take care of, people who'd been closer to Aiden and Shirazu than he had been. So after about an hour in his room to decompress, he'd headed to the kitchen and started cooking. At some point Stan and Bruce had both joined him.

Almost everyone seems to want to take care of those who are remaining. Almost everyone.

The food this time is mostly soup and sandwiches - nothing fancy, nobody's in the mood to appreciate it - but it's there set up in the dining room by the time everyone (alive) receives notes under their doors. ...He slips an extra one for Sigrun under Mettaton's door, just in case.]

[name],
If you want to spend this time by yourself, that's fine.
If you'd rather have some company, there's food in the dining room, and you're all welcome there.
If you want to take some food and go, that's fine, too.
Take care of yourself.
-Cherryblod, Stan, Bruce

[Even if it's something one shouldn't be proud of, she's beaming anyway.]

Thanks! If it wasn't for the rest of you though, I would've been as good as a beast out of water. Your nerdy scientist stuff really came in helpful.

[pokexplorer]

Haha, well, I'd say Mr. Banner and Mr. Knight had it down better than myself. I am afraid that I am at a bit of a disadvantage when it comes to Earth-based information. Rather embarrassing, that!

[He really does feel a bit embarrassed about it, since this should've been his jam.]

We really did come together, though... It was nice to see, even if the circumstances were not the greatest.

[captainobnoxious]

Don't be so humble! Sing your own praises or let someone sing them for you, sweetheart, you've gotta feel good no matter your mistakes! Or lack of smarts in something. Besides, with our other smarty guy touching the body up like usual, I wouldn't have trusted anyone else to think about looking in that sciency room.

[Aiden was smart and modern, knew about chemicals, but she wouldn't be able to hazard a guess from his occupation if he'd think to look there.

... Well, now she does, but then she didn't.]

[pokexplorer]

[Oh... That does get him to smile.]

Thank you, Miss Sigrun. I suppose you are right that my scientific intuition didn't fail me at least.

...Have you ever been in there, by the way? The chemistry lab.

[He figures he knows the answer, but...]

[captainobnoxious]

Nope. I'm wary of anything that can do what it did to featherhead's face.

[... And now to sharptooth's body.]

[pokexplorer]

That is understandable.

[He definitely can't defend the chemicals now, that's for sure.]

But you know? Those chemicals can do some very astounding things...and I mean astounding of the not-so-dangerous variety. Mr. Banner and I have been performing very simple experiments- more fun and aesthetically pleasing than anything.

Perhaps you would like to see something like that sometime?

[captainobnoxious]

[... She's... being invited to science?

That's. Really unexpected, obviously, judging from the look on her face as she tries to figure out if she wants to see something fun to do with chemicals or not. Or maybe do something fun with them herself. Wow. Huh. Uh.]

I... Yeah. I guess so. I'm kind of curious. Even if it's not really my kind of thing and all, I kinda wanna see.

[pokexplorer]

[Colress smiles. He's pretty pleased that Sigrun actually agreed to it. He just wants to show her how great science can be!]

I promise that it will be worth your time. And as I said, it will be completely harmless fun.

[Not explosions. He's actually had enough of those for now.]
