014- [phone/action] In the mail...

[canhaspasta]

[Chibitalia is on his front lawn, staring up at a very large crate that came in the mail today. He looks.... uncertain.]

I wonder what's inside...?

[After mulling it over, he's making a call to the town.]

The town sent me a very big package. Do you think it's safe to open?

Maybe it's pasta~ A whole lot of pasta. That would be a great present!

[Bruce walks outside and sees Italy peering at the large crate in the yard.]

Well? Do you need help with that?

Si~ I don't think I'll be able to open it myself. What do you think is inside?

[beyondthecowl]

[Bruce puts a hand to his chin in thought.]

I don't know. Certainly it must be something you'll like.

[He kneels and puts his arms around the package. He slowly lifts it off the grass. Appearances to keep up and all]

Where do you want me to put this? In your room, perhaps?

[canhaspasta]

[It would be a little too big for him to lift. And certainly wouldn't fit in Italy's room. It seriously is the Statue of David. Like, Michelangelo's David.]

I think it's too big...

[beyondthecowl]

[He's toppled statues that are as tall as some buildings with just his feet. He'll be aiight. ;)]

Okay . . . anywhere else?

[canhaspasta]

..... I guess we should open it to see what it is first.

If it's pasta, it goes in the kitchen~

[beyondthecowl]

[He raises an eyebrow at the package as he puts it down.]

I can't imagine pasta being this heavy. Besides, it would take you ages to cook this much.

Well, why don't you open it and we can find out whether it's pasta or something else? We can get a ladder or something for you to climb on . . .

[Man, this would be so much easier with his grapple gun. Or with the Batwing.]

[canhaspasta]

Si~!

[Yeah, he's all for cracking it open. Just to speed things up, I'm assuming they do get a ladder and that somehow he gets the top off the crate. Italy will peer inside curiously.]

...... It's not pasta.
