Petal 04 -- Open to Action

[shylyintrepid]

[The IM opens on a Jehan out by the bonfire]

Ah, with everything that's happening to everyone, I thought it might be nice to make something comforting? So I've made a lot of tea and some baked apples, if anyone wants some. I'll be out here or on my cabin's porch.

[shylyintrepid]

And?

[angeliaforos]

Great, so what you're saying is you don't actually care if I cheat the system.

[shylyintrepid]

Not for this!

[angeliaforos]

[too late gabriel is already sitting on the roof of Demeter cabin dropping apples on the counselor's head.]

[shylyintrepid]

Ow! Ow ow ow--Gabriel!

[He grabs one of the fallen apples and chucks it back up]

I'll make you clean the stables!

[angeliaforos]

You wouldn't dare.

[Because the apple's caught and getting sent right back down again.]

[shylyintrepid]

[He tosses it back]

Watch me!

[angeliaforos]

Oh my god, you would.

[He throws it down and hops off the roof.]

Feed me, Prouvaire.

[shylyintrepid]

Please.

[angeliaforos]

[a little sigh of exasperation.]

please feed me.

[shylyintrepid]

There we go! C'mon, I need to bake more apples.

[He heads to the fire]

[angeliaforos]

[Gabriel carries a few in the bottom of his t-shirt.]

I could have traded apples for chocolate, y'know.

[shylyintrepid]

I'm out of chocolate. Hand me the apple you want baked.

[angeliaforos]

I mean I could have given you chocolate in exchange for the apples you already baked.

[But sure enough he's passing one over to Jehan.]

[shylyintrepid]

...you have chocolate? It's not the funny organic vegan stuff your mama likes, yeah?

[angeliaforos]

Dear gods. No.

[shylyintrepid]

Get me some chocolate and I'll make you two.

[angeliaforos]

Milk or dark?

[shylyintrepid]

Dark! Milk chocolate is funny tasting.

[angeliaforos]

You're insane. But I'll be back.

[shylyintrepid]

I'm French! We're picky!

[angeliaforos]

Picky. Sure, that's a word for it.

[shylyintrepid]

Chocolat, monsieur arc en ciel, ou vous n'aurez pas de pommes!

[He laughs]

[angeliaforos]

English, Jehan.

[But he goes on a run to Iris cabin and comes back with about five of those fun-size bars of dark chocolate.]

[shylyintrepid]

Learn French, Gabriel.

[He grins when he sees the candy]

I still don't understand why you Americans make such tiny bars of chocolate.
