It was mid-afternoon and he'd missed lunch. And breakfast. That was fine. He was used to doing things himself anyway so, now, Jamie was at the stove, keeping his eyes on what he hoped would end up a grilled turkey and cheese sandwich and a pot of chicken soup. He had a bad habit of becoming mildly distracted and things burned just slightly. It was still edible but no one liked the taste of burnt cheese. It was disgusting to say the least.
Jamie was also at one of the tables in the kitchen, thumbing through a local magazine. He had no clue what it was about. It was something to occupy his mind. It was either look at the pretty if not slightly blurry pictures, or let his imagination and creativity go. That usually ended in someone being pranked and since Jamie was still relatively new, he wasn't sure doing that just yet was the wisest of ideas.
The food was done and Jamie's duplicate brought it over, vanishing a second later. Jamie now knew exactly what the stove looked like, that there was a crack in the wall behind it shaped like California and that the front right pilot light took a few seconds longer to light than the other ones and Jamie himself hadn't been anywhere near it. Only his duplicate and that worked for Mr. Madrox.
