Extra Recipe: Bentou Boxing

[starofpleiades]

Characters: Kazumi and Fionna
Date: June 27th
Summary: Picnic and the Arcade!
Warnings: diabetes

Kazumi had spent most of the morning preparing for her day with Fionna in one way or another, picking what to wear or getting ingredients for the lunch. She'd also made sure to make extra for Akira, leaving it out on the counter with a note about where she'd gone.

In any case, Kazumi was waiting in front of the Orchard for Fionna, having just picked some fresh fruit to go with what she'd made. Hopefully the girl would arrive soon, since she was pretty excited about going to the Arcade today!

...and kind of hungry.

"Really? I guess it is pretty strange," said Kazumi, not really getting it. "Well, let's get into the apartment then; it's a lot more normal looking inside."

That said, she led the way up the stairs, which spiraled and zigzagged oddly but at least weren't too uneven.

[fionna_time]

Good idea. The ocean feeling was making Fionna look pretty green, but once she entered the apartment she was feeling quite better.

Though not a little confused. "Who the heck designed this place. It's kinda...fun, actually, once you get over the sinking feeling!"

[starofpleiades]

"I dunno! I think it's just one of those things that were in the garden to start with," Kazumi replied, closing the door behind them. "It's kinda like they took rooms from a buncha different buildings and put 'em together!"

At least the individual apartments weren't like that. Inside, Akira and Kazumi's place just looked like a pretty normal two bedroom apartment with somewhat combined living room, dining room and kitchen area. Walking over to the kitchen, she set down the picnic basket and started putting things away or in the fridge.

[fionna_time]

"And I thought that my place was pretty cool!" Fionna said half to herself. Sure, she thought that it was still a pretty cool place anyway, but much more awesome would jumbled up rooms be?!

The inside did look pretty normal though, and Fionna couldn't help needle Kazumi just a little bit. "Man, this place does look pretty cozy! No wonder you and Akira like it so much!"

[starofpleiades]

Kazumi just thought it was kind of weird, and worse when it was dark... then it kind of reminded her a of a witch's barrier. Good thing it was well-lit for most hours, even at night.

"Heheh, right? Sometimes it's just fun to relax around the house~" she said, walking over and flopping onto the couch once everything was put away.

[fionna_time]

Fionna was the type of girl who always liked when things were a little different, when they made you move around and could always find a way to enjoy it.

"Yeah, I bet!" Fionna said, grinning. "What do you guys usually do?"

[starofpleiades]

"Hmm... well, reading... I do a lot of cooking too." If that wasn't obvious already. "I guess I don't spend a whole lot of time inside."

[fionna_time]

"You don't?" Fionna pondered this. "Don't you hang with Akira ta all? You just stay inside? Why?"

[starofpleiades]

"No, I hang with Akira, though usually it's going out places around the Garden!" Kazumi explained. "Hehe, but there's also a lot of time exploring around by myself too. The time we spend together here... well, it's not really doing anything in particular, but being around each other, you know?"

[fionna_time]

"Yeah, me too!" Fionna said, grinning, then looked a little confused. "Wait, so you two don't hang and watch movies or anything, all you do is just hang around each other? What kinda fun is that?"

[starofpleiades]

"It's fun!" Kazumi assured her, though she looked thoughtful. "But movies would be nice... I didn't know we could get them here!"

[fionna_time]

"Neither did I!" Fionna said. "Heck, I didn't even know I could have my video games here!"

[starofpleiades]

"Oh, right, we could probably make them, huh? Wait, do we have to know the movie we make?" That might kind of limit things.

[fionna_time]

"I just make movies here!" Fionna said proudly. "I have a camera and everything!"

[starofpleiades]

"Whoa, you make movies? That's so cool!" cheered Kazumi, clearly impressed.

[fionna_time]

"They're just kinda home made things," Fionna said bashfully, laughing. "I haven't done too many, since it was something me and cake used to do together. But maybe we could later?"

[starofpleiades]

"That's still pretty neat though! It sounds like it'd be a lot of fun too," said Kazumi with a giggle. "Do you write scripts and stuff?"

[fionna_time]

"Scripts? Nah man, not me! I believe you gotta go straight for the gut, mostly! Do you think they'd be better with scripts?"

They would Fionna. Your movies aren't great.

[starofpleiades]

"Ooh, so ad-lib? That's cool too! I dunno, I'd have to see how they are," said Kazumi, thinking it over. "Hmm... too bad Umika isn't here. I bet she could write a great script."

[fionna_time]

"Ad lib, yeah!...What's that mean again?"

She blinked. "What's an Umika? Some kinda monster?"

[starofpleiades]

"It mean you make things up as you go!"

Kazumi laughed at that. "No, silly, Umika's a friend of mine! She's a novelist!" Kazumi was pretty proud to have a friend like that.

heh, that icon looks so wrong

[fionna_time]

"Oh! Yeah, I do that all the time!"

She giggled. "Heh, sorry, gotta get used to all these names, you know?"

why do you always see terrible things in my icons?

[starofpleiades]

"Haha, yeah, it's probably hard without a face to go with them," Kazumi admitted. "I wonder if I could make a photograph of them? I wonder if the quality of that depends on our imagination though..." She didn't want it to come out funny...

Re: why do you always see terrible things in my icons?

[fionna_time]

"We could draw them maybe? I mean, we gotta have a pretty clear picture about what we're doing, right? i think we could manage it though, if we really put our imaginations together! We're both real good, I think!"

[starofpleiades]

"Maybe! I'm not an expert on drawing though, but it might help!" Or just make the photo even weirder. Oh well, it'd be great if she could show Fionna her friends. "We could make albums of our friends at home, maybe!"
