you learned to breathe underwater —

WHO: caroline forbes & you!
WHERE: the safehouse
WHEN: october 10
WHAT: an impromptu birthday celebration.
NOTES OR WARNINGS: excessive cheeriness.

[ by mid-day, a new message appears on the network from a new user, @caroline.forbes: ]

It's my birthday, apparently, so I made cake. Please don't make me eat all of it!

[ it's a fairly short message, but it's at least accompanied by a few photos of a cake, surprisingly delicious looking for being made of everything but chocolate.

those in the safehouse will have likely heard caroline baking up a storm all morning, and may be aware that the photos show her fourth attempt at this extremely finicky futuristic cake. by the time she posts her photos, all the evidence has been scrubbed clean from the countertops (and dishes and floor and tabletops and trash cans) of the safehouse kitchen. ]




ooc note: feel free to have your character reply on the network, come by in person, or a combination thereof. this post is a combo pack because i didn't feel like making a network and log post on the same day. #lazy

[geesh, way to be an awkward prick that makes girls question just how friendly they get to be with others. he coughs into a hand and is grateful for her turning around to do the caking cutting bit, just as he rearranges his hair (unnecessarily so) with a hand and tries to regroup his "cool factor."]

Cake sounds great. You made it all by yourself?

[yeah, maybe just steer this into more distanced topics of conversation...]

Being cooped in ain't any fun at all, huh. You'll be out soon, though.

[prompto makes a face at that]

Sucks.

[he offers, grabbing at the plate with the cake. gods, he hopes there aren't any bugs in the mixture. if he bites into anything crunchy or chewy, he might actually throw up--]

It's way too hot during the daytime, though. I do most of my stuff at nighttime if I can help it. [with a smile, prompto takes a bite -- and his expression shows how pleased he is with the flavor despite his initial (inner) hesitation). he puts ah and over his mouth, as he finishes chewing but wishes to keep talking.] Where are you from? I'm from Eos.

No- what? Eos is the planet I come from. Which, yes, I know it isn't Earth, but also it has a lot of similar things to Earth according to the people I've been talking to.

[he takes another bite, chewing around the thick layer of cake.]

...uh.

[he scrunches his nose a bit]

There's a lot of things that are kind of unbelievable in this place...

I dunno how to count space-distance.

[all these questions that she isn't asking him are being answered by a mild, irrefutable shrug, eating some more of the cake. he's all about watching what he eats -- but boy, is he a sucker for sweets and cakes. he'd keep eating without restrain if he could.]

[it's at her worry that prompto grins.] It's pretty great stuff, y'know. I'm more for the fluffy type, but I'd be happily converted.
