65th Transformation [text | action for Shark House]

[exeggutorhead]

[There's just a short text from Envy's number today:]

Hypothetically, if you have to use a fire extinguisher on an oven, the oven would still work afterwards right?

[Any of Envy's housemates who came to investigate the mix of angry and then panicked shouting that happened shortly before that text went out will be able to find him sitting on the edge of the couch, with flecks of foam all over his front and in his hair, staring at the door to the kitchen like he'd like to murder it. There's a thick, acrid smoke spilling out of the doorway. It smells a little like oranges. But mostly just nasty burnt food.]

[Looking inside the kitchen will reveal batter covered dishes, a frying pan filled to the edges with a smoldering black thing which may have been a pancake, and a pot that's the source of most of the smoke. It's also clearly what the fire extinguisher was aimed at. No, that wasn't a hypothetical question at all.]

[Envy, in the midst of the frustration, is hoping that he's not going to have to buy Greed a new oven.]

[Okay he'll bite.

BUT ONLY BECAUSE HE DOESN'T WANT LUST'S HOUSE TO BURN DOWN.]

I would not think that to be your number one concern if the oven is on fire.

[exeggutorhead]

[WHY DOES EVERYONE THINK HE'S BURNING THE HOUSE DOWN?!]

It isn't on fire anymore we have an extinguisher

[envy_the_sinners]

They why did you feel the need to ask in the first place?

[exeggutorhead]

Because I don't know if the extinguisher broke the oven by drowning it in foam, that's why

I'm not a mechanic

[envy_the_sinners]

You aren't going to know until you try to use it...

[exeggutorhead]

do you really think it's a good idea for me to try cooking again right this second

[envy_the_sinners]

No, but that does not mean you cannot turn the oven on.

[exeggutorhead]

yeah and if it catches on fire again or explodes I'm telling Lust it was your idea.

[Envy still doesn't entirely trust modern ovens.]

[envy_the_sinners]

If you actually think she would take your word over mine...

[exeggutorhead]

Oh I know she would, I'VE known her longer than you. She can tell when I'm telling the truth.

and this conversation is also written down

[envy_the_sinners]

You actually think you can accurately say that?

Regardless, it would still be a result of your own foolishness.

[exeggutorhead]

damn straight I do


so you're admitting that your advice WAS stupid.

[envy_the_sinners]

Then clearly I need to remind you of when we actually first met. Before you stole her from her home.

No, because I would not be the one using the oven incorrectly.

[exeggutorhead]

excuse me, stole?

and how the hell were YOU going to take care of a newborn homunculus if I hadn't?




and yeah no it's still your stupid idea to use the oven wrong

[envy_the_sinners]

I was a child, there was nothing I could do.

You, meanwhile dragged her back to the absolute worst place possible.

[exeggutorhead]

Exactly, you couldn't have done anything and you wouldn't have known how to keep her alive.

Things were shit under our master but it was the only place for any of us to GO.

[envy_the_sinners]

I find it difficult to believe that the group of you could not have overpowered her if you wanted.

[exeggutorhead]

you know what fuck you

rebelling in any way wasn't tolerated, and she was very good at making examples out of anyone that tried. she knew what she was doing.

it's not about who's more physically powerful
