❰ approximately 23 minutes after the network goes live, a very careful and deliberate text post arrives. ❱

mustard tastes bad.

way to christen the place with the shittiest take

on anything ever

people were probably lining up to drop some mad knowledge

words of wisdom in these trying times

maybe even a sick recipe for some asgardian mac n cheese

but then you shoved them all to the ground and trampled over them to be first

like a 50 year old mom desperate for that black friday tv/vcr combo at walmart

to tell us this incorrect opinion

[skittering]

❰ after a loooooooong pause. ❱

red

❰ he seems to have figured out how to make things red. ❱

[enflame]

( Lalli may be within 10 feet of him, but this new network function Intrigues him. If only they had this technology a bit ago even if Lalli would have just ignored his incessant audio pokes anyway. )

mustard isn't that bad

( this also took him 10 minutes to post because his fat fingers are not acclimated to qwerty living )

[timeriffs]

congrats youve discovered your wysiwyg

an important milestone in every maturing youths life

❰ lalli sees this message,

squints at this message,

squints down at emil, sitting literally within- well, not arm's reach but definitely leg's reach,

then looks back at the message and begins to type. ❱

i'm sitting right here

❰ oh hells it's still red ❱

[skittering]

my what

[enflame]

( okay you little bitch, fine then.

Emil rolls over from his back to peer up at Lalli and this newfound power of his. He'll make no use of it, but he wants it. )

How did you make it all red like that? Is it only red?

( That's just not his colour tbh. )

[momsboy]

If you think mustard is bad, you should try marmite.

Now, that's practically poison.

assuming it's text? i'll edit if not

[skittering]

why would i try poison

[skittering]

❰ oh gods, don't make him explain -

with a very put-upon huff, he shifts onto his knees and crawl up onto the bed to scoot in beside him, so that he can show emil what he's doing while still being able to do it.

it's a fairly simple process (which i will fail to detail here because we're still waiting on official word that there even are colors at all, whoops) and he walks through it step by step, with zero helpful verbal commentary.

then he looks to emil, somewhat expectantly. good enough? ❱

Oh yes, sorry! text works

[momsboy]

You really shouldn't.

I'm just saying that marmite tastes like regret and bad decisions. If someone offers it to you, don't eat it.

[timeriffs]

man

i gotta explain every joke to you?

just as id expect from a mustard hater



((ooc note for people seeing this: dave asked for red, laufey only added red, the best color))

[mindseer]

[Hey there! Guess who it is! It's the blindfolded weirdo again. This time she's typing in horrible, irritating l33t sp34k, but not in alternating colors quite yet because they're still working on that apparently.]

Lemon's obviously better, obviously.
But totally with strider. Kudos for starting us off with an ignominious bang there, bucko!

[Holler if you want to actually see her terrible text.]

text

[sanityinruins]

i'm sorry for your lack of taste

[enflame]

( Emil follows along as best he can, though not super impressed by the fact he can only use red to make himself look special. )

is this it ??

( Replying back to Lalli's response. Yes!! It is red! )

A nyway, I know you're right there but you said the mustard thing on here.

We cantalk about mustard in person, if you want

[skittering]

❰ lalli, however, has figured out how to switch back out of red. what a miracle this is. ❱

it tastes bad

[enflame]

( Emil, on the other hand, is committed to the red, at least until he gets bored. )

It's not my favourite but not the worst

oh I bet you're more t he jam sandwich type ?

[skittering]

i don't know

don't like blueberries

❰ there's a definite chance that's the only jam he's had the opportunity to try. ❱

[skittering]

maybe your jokes are just stupid

[skittering]

what does it look like

[skittering]

❰ what ❱

❰ what ❱

[skittering]

i can taste fine

[timeriffs]

nah man i eat my mustards
the joke quadrant of my brain is crazy big and healthy
like a sweaty stallion running over the robust fields of wordplay that is my grey matter
thick and and heady from its steady mustard diet

[sanityinruins]

you do realize there are a lot of foods that use mustard in them, right?

[momsboy]

Like black ta. It's keep in small glass or plastic jars.

i'm not sure if they have it on the city and I really prefer not to know.
