( waking @wallabysting to French Toast with Stawberries, Chocolate Syrup, and *lots of bacon. )
mornin', Walter. coffee's on the way. i've got s'm good news!!
a sympathetic frown — engineering and mechanics are decently far out of his skillset, but he knows the feeling of something blowing up in his face all too well.
" m' poor Wallay... " he sighs. " how about you hop in the shower and i make us s'm drinks, ei? "

⠀⠀strewth, fuse better get scrubbing the rest of the ash off. "new cluster experiment's a bust. went 'round to ramya's to take my mind off it, and things got a li'l outta hand."

" well— first of all, i just ain't sure that's how trustworthiness works, baby. " Makoa chuckles, catching the generator. not it would be bad if it landed on its side.
" second of all— 's gotta be more than a thousand *now, right? i mean, i've been innit since the start. "

⠀⠀stretch of his smile softening at its corners. "and here it is, safe 'n sound after, let's say, a thousand games to the death?"
⠀⠀passing it over. "i rounded up. sounds more impressive."

( what's another, ah? )
whaddya know? still good! somebody musta vacuumed, lately— my bet's on Ballistic. always talkin' about his allergies, now that there's a cat around..
i am? wait. yes. i am! HAHA!
( Makoa takes a satisfied bite of his cookie, sighing. no need to be so worried, really-- even the most frightening people can recognize kindness, whether or not they'll admit it right away. he's already working on Caustic, Revenant, Ash... )

( she wordlessly took the offered snacks ,
eyes flicking up towards him ... face expressionless
before the smile returned ) .
ᅠᅠ

very good friend .

( the way she smiles gives him an unpleasant chill up his spine... he's putting them back on the tray. )
um. anyways! Gibraltar's watchin' 'is figure. you take 8, i'll take 4.
( finger to chin.... )
well. i ain't super familiar with all this "end of the world" mojo that's been goin' on, lately. thought it was, like... propaganda. or, a prank or sometin'!

( taking a step closer , head tilted ...
large , devious grin on her face ) .
