Summary: Morgan wants to make cookies for Lex because Something Bad happened to him. She meets Monet in the kitchen who is only too happy to help.
Morgan heard something Very Bad happened to Lex. Tim and Dick don't like Lex. She knows that but she doesn't understand. Lex is always nice to her. Charming. That's a good word. Chaaaaaaaaarming. (That has lots of As but it's different than the Sangria word with two As). Like Prince Charming. The Doctor talked about Prince Charming in her class...
Oh. Class. She's missing it. Isn't she? Maybe...well, who cares anyway?
She has more important things to do. Like make cookies for Lex Charming. Since something bad happened. With Kon. Maybe Kon tried to have sex with him, too. And that would be wrong.
Morgan stops skipping and blinks. Why would that be wrong? Lex isn't ten thousand years old like she is. Even if she can't count that high and doesn't think she could be that old and Lex is bald, so he could be. But...Kon's either three or seventeen, and men can have sex with each other, like Tim and Dick, when she jumped into bed with them yesterday.
They were just cuddling though. Weren't they? Maybe they were having sex and she missed it. Except her boobs would've tingled if they were having sex. Or if it was raining. Or if she forgot something. They're tingling now. It's not raining and there's no sex in sight. So she must've forgotten something...where is she? Oh, right. Cookies. She's going to make cookies for Lex, at the Compound. In the kitchen. She just needs to keep going straight down this path and she'll get there.
She's off to see the Kitchen, the wonderful Kitchen of...hm. What rhymes with Oz? There has to be something... Oh! Tabula Ras-a. Huh, that doesn't totally work. Maybe she'll think of something while she's stirring the cookie batter. Stirring will help her think.
But wait. Someone else is using the kitchen. Morgan frowns, frustrated, but the girl has such pretty hair. And skin. It's very brown. Like chocolate. Morgan likes chocolate. And she like Monet, that's who it is.
"Hi, Monet! Are you making cookies? I want to make cookies. Something Very Bad happened to Lex Charming. So I think he needs cookies. Will you helpme?" Monet's so nice. She'll help. Morgan's sure of it.
Monet turned at the sound of her name and smiled at Morgan happily. Greasing a tray, she looked at the ingredients in front of her and shook her head. She had been planning to make a version of Gateau St Honoré but if Morgan wanted to make cookies then she'd gladly help her.
"Bonjour Morgan, well I was going to make a cake but if something bad has happened to Lex--" Monet covered her mouth taking a breath. Touching her chest, Monet looked terribly worried. "-then of course I'll help you. Lex is one of my bestest friends along with Dick and Alice and Terry of course. Oh poor Lex, did he have an accident?"
Bone-zhewer. She blinks and stares at Monet, tingling like she forgot her own name. It's very frustrating! Tim says she's smart and this is a phase but she doesn't feel different. This feels like normal to her. She closes her eyes and thinks very hard and then OH! Something pops into her brain so hard it makes her rub her forehead. "That means hello, doesn't it? Bone-zhewer to you too, Monet. You're so pretty. I wish I was as pretty as you are."
She walks into the kitchen and right up to Monet and just hugs her. "Dick and Tim told me something bad happened. I don't know what. Something about Kon who is Not a Nice Person now. Tim says. But Kon was nice to me. He kissed me and told me I was pretty. But maybe he tried to kiss Lex and Lex didn't like it. I don't know why he wouldn't though. Kon is a good kisser and Lex likes boys."
"Oui, it does or good morning! I love saying good morning, it's just so cheery and nice!" Monet said, squealing happily as Morgan hugged her. Monet hugged her back tightly and kissed both of her cheeks. It was rather sad about Lex but they'd bake him cookies and he'd be all better and if he wasn't then she'd have stern words with whoever had upset or hurt him. "Well chérie, Kon might not be a Nice Person now but he was right... you are very pretty."
If Kon wasn't a very Nice Person now perhaps she would deny him her baked goods. HA! That would serve him right. No Monet's Muffins for him. See, you didn't have to resort to violence to punish the wicked. "Hmmm... maybe he just isn't Lex's Prince Charming. We should definitely bake him cookies though, it'll cheer him up."
"Oh, thank you!" Monet thinks she's pretty. That's so nice. She likes Monet. "It is very nice and cheery to say good morning. Cheery and cherry, but I'm not Cherry. I'm Morgan. Or Maggie. You can call me Maggie if you want to. Elphie calls me Maggie and she's my best friend. And we're having a party."
Her hand flies up to her mouth, eyes becoming very wide. She wasn't supposed to tell...her boobs tingle, a lot, and she knows there's something about the party, but she can't think what. Maybe she'll remember. "Kon won't be at the party. He's a boy. It's a girls' party. For --" That's it! That's what she's not supposed to tell. "Um, overnight. Slumber party. You can come if you
want."
"Maggie's such a nice name, Morgan is even nicer. Oh! We're both M's, that's really neat!" Monet said happily, thinking that Maggie was such a nice girl and perhaps Karolina would like to meet Maggie too. Although she wasn't sure about that. Everyone was behaving so weirdly today especially around her. "You're having a party? Oh, that's so nice. I love parties but no one ever invites me to them. I always have to find my own dates, I don't know why. I mean I'm always ever so nice."
Monet smiled happily as Maggie invited her. It was good that Kon wasn't invited. Boys were rather inappropriate and she didn't think her girlfriend would like it. "I'd love to! Can I invite my girlfriend to come too? She's very pretty and very sweet."
“I don’t know why either! That’s not very nice of them. Well.” Morgan puts both hands on her hips and tries to look stern. “Elphie and I won’t let it happen again. Of course you come. And you’re girlfriend since she’s a girl not a boy. Is she that very pretty girl with the pretty blonde hair and big smile? I like her. She’s…um, pretty. So she can definitely come. We’ll talk about boys -“ Her eyes get wide again. What if Monet and her girlfriend don’t like weddings? That would be sad. She doesn’t want to think about it. They must like boys. They just have to! “And weddings. And make cookies.” She frowns. “No, wait. We’re going to make cookies now. For Lex. Who is nice, even if he is a boy.”
Morgan links her arms through Monet’s. “You will help me won’t you?”
Since Monet had already said yes, they started right away! And it isn’t very long at all…except that it seems like a very long time…before they have fresh, hot yummy cookies for Maggie to take to Lex.
