#spare moment from holiday shenans

[contaiinedarmageddon2]

Nepeta's words struck the dull stone and were absorbed into silence. It resembling places Nepeta was familiar with was an apt comparison, that abandoned industrial air. If a one's hive reflected one's head this one lacked some warmth.

Noone showed up to laugh at her pratfall. The silence remained heavy but at least she could poke around to her heart's content. Sollux's devices resembled alternating microwaves and a device Sollux would describe as a 3D printer, but to Nep might best be reduced to 'a platform with a strange arm hanging over it'. Sendificators and Appearifiers, respectively. Nepeta's near-toppling of the chair had bumped one of the latter, causing it to light up with a very satisfying buzz and hum.

A few seconds later a series of lights crept up the arm of it until it reached the top, whereupon a blinding flash emitted. Once it faded upon the platform was left... A bowl of mac and cheese? Hot, even, like it had just been cooked.

Before she explodes or does whatever is those expressions might convey, a shiny foiled box appearifies above the pear to plonk down on it.

It's a box of truffles, chocolate over some kind of cookie base with honey filling. There's no branding so its possible they were made scratch. Usually trick or treating doesn't involve doordash!

Nepeta looks up in the air in awe at the spread of sweetness that awaits above her. She holds her hands together, eyes wide with wonder as it delicately falls down from where it appearified... into... no...

"NOOOOO!!!!!!"

It was too late. The chocolates drop into the pool. The pear falls to her knees, arms raised tragically as far as she can manage in the costume. She tearfully reaches for her palmhusk.
