[Crunch! Carrots are delicious, you guys. At least, that's what it sounds like.An'f I'm not generally too picky, but what the hell are we doing here? I mean, is there some kind of jailbreak or are we some kind of fuckin' imported slave population or lab rats or- seriously, people,

[Cultural differences go!]

Captain Planet? Is, that a, human hero figure?

And, also, that cake looks very nice, if a bit, uh, sad. I mean as in, upset, and not pathetic.

[inkstolen]

Capt- you have never heard of Captain Planet? Oh that is just plain unacceptable. You can not live like that! How do you even continue breathing?

You want some cake, kid? Come in, I'll give you a consult.

audio;

[personalmotifs]

I--um, with, my respiratory sacs, which enable me to breathe, uh, but, no, I haven't heard of Captain Planet, probably because, of the cultural differences between humans and, trolls.

And, I'm not sure what a consult is in this context, but, I thought you said, anyway, that you made that, for someone?

audio;

[inkstolen]

A troll? Fu- Heck yeah.

Look, a consult- [Shit, talkign to alien children, use normal-people words, Marj.]

What I mean is, I'm bored out of my skull. I made this for some asshat with a helmet, but I'll make whatever you want. The stores are.... really fuckin' weird, around here.

[Kato doesn't think it's nice of her to eat while speaking, but she's an American. They're like that in his experience.]

We could be anysing. Srave, test subject, pet... No one knows.

[inkstolen]

Great, so we're trapped and nobody knows anything.

[There is a pause. And a sigh as she leans on her elbow, considering the cake.]

Who are you again?

Video

[unwillingpirate]

Oh no, why is it gray? That's such an unappetizing color!

Video

[inkstolen]

Honey, it's buttercream. You can color it however you like and it'll taste just the same.

'Sides, check this out; [She turns the cake so that the rainbow interior is more visible.]

Yeah? Alright, Bessie so it's not a goddamn chocolate rum cake, but you don't have to be mean.

Video

[unwillingpirate]

Oh no! I didn't mean to offend you! I'm just saying that it would look so much more delicious if it were... yellow, maybe.

Although that contrast between the outside and the inside is really creative. I like baking too, but I've never done anything artsy with it!

[inkstolen]

Mmmh...You want some cake, sweetheart?

I got shitloads a free time.

[Audio]

[huragokwhistler]

[It's like The Wizard of Oz! That is awesome.]

Could come and pick it up. Might be easier.

[Audio]

[inkstolen]

You tryin' to hide your address from me, Soldier boy?

[Audio]

[huragokwhistler]

Nah. You really wanna meet my roommates?

[They're an interesting bunch.]

[Audio]

[inkstolen]

I haven't seen a living soul outside of vid'ya chat in a fuckin' week'n a half. I'd want to meet a troop of gorillas.
