[Action/Video] kain is why we can't have nice things

[rising_drive]

[Action]

[It was supposed to be a nice surprise.]

[Supposed to be, but Kain has no idea what he’s doing. He’d been off on one of his mountain excursions, the first one he’d actually taken solo since the world had been restored and everything had calmed down. For once, he’d at least told Terra when to expect him back… But after enough time, he’s started missing her, and longed to return.]

[So here he is. He’s returned early as part of the surprise, and with a somewhat ambitious idea in mind that he’s going to do something nice for Terra. So he’s bought a bunch of materials and is in the kitchen attempting to make her some homemade sweets. Attempting being the key word here. It all goes… sort of ok, at first...]

[Then It Happens. KABOOM!!!]

[Sudden explosion in the kitchen! Every surface is now coated in chocolate (including the dragoon), and there’s some ruined parts here and there under the chocolate coating too, the aftermath of the explosion’s force. And there are the firelizards, fluttering in to “help” clean up by trying to lick up as much as they can (yeah no, they don’t get far with that before many of them are laying around bloated and much much too full, the poor silly things.)]

[A chocolate covered Kain is coming through with an urgent message. He had better pray that no bees are around to chase him.]

Does anyone perhaps have a spell to… repair and clean things on a somewhat large scale? It’s a matter of extreme urgency.

[At this point, Imila is grabbing for the nearest shoes or boots that she can find, whether some of her own or a spare pair of Terra's. That way, stepping into the mess that the kitchen has become won't immediately turn it into a frozen mess. After that, in one of the drawers near where the cutting boards are kept, there are several extra gloves for when Imila herself is the one in the kitchen. She goes straight for them and slips a pair on so she can handle the other fire lizards without touching any of them directly.]

Okay, you. [Is that one Maduin? Or maybe Vaan? Or is it one of Kain's? Who knows. Most of them look as if they practically rolled around in the chocolate by now, so it's a little difficult to tell any of them apart. It ultimately doesn't matter which fire lizard it is, though, as she's picking it up from its place on the counter anyway.] That's enough chocolate.

[That fire lizard protests of course, because why are you taking me away from all this delicious chocolate do you understand the crime you are committing here.]

I'll make you something later! Just let us clean this up first, okay? [Wherever Maduin is in all this mess, he probably heard that and he's probably going to hold her to that, as well as a perpetually-hungry lizard can.]

[Poor little things. Kain goes to pick up the nearest one himself, holding onto the little creature and saying some soothing words. Of course, he... probably needs to clean himself off first, but he's worried about the firelizards more.]

Right... they should be fine with some rest, and as long as they're kept well away from all of this.

[The poor things have little common sense, unfortunately, so they really need to be moved away from the room completely. Kain goes to pick up another carefully, trying to see its color under the chocolatey mess. The whole lot of them are going to need some serious scrubbing to get them clean. Sigh, he feels incredibly guilty now, and to think he was going to make a nice, simple surprise...]

Forgive me... I didn't mean for this...

[riotblade]

Shhh, all of you. We just don't want you to be sick.

[Terra finishes grabbing all that she can, to bring them outside. Cleaning up will happen where there isn't risk of spreading it all over the house. On her way back to get some towels, she nods to Kain, a bit distracted to talk about this in-depth at the moment.]

I know, but let's work on this first. At least with three of us, it will be easier.

[Kain can be the babysitter, once they're cleaned off. Adelind joins in, eager to help. She tries to best to lick them clean, since she doesn't quite share their diet issues.]
