w0, SUNDAY

[sharkgirl]

[there is a pink girl sprawled out on top of the vending machines, arm dangling off the side...

she's staring at her phone! wow. fascinating. she's kind of reminiscent of that one armadillo, maybe, but that'd be silly, right.]

[floridas]

[ that's be super duper silly right?

like how there's a flutter flutter and suddenly jolyne is just kinda hovering curiously with some wings. ]

How's the view?

[sharkgirl]

[whoa WINGS

she startles slightly, blinking.]

Huh? Oh. Uhhh, it's great. [...] Did you always have those?

[floridas]

[ she winks and gives a little twirl in the air. i am living my sky dancer dreams. ]

No, but I figured why not at least give these weird powers a try. It's different from the ability I had back home, but... I think I like it!

[sharkgirl]

[sky dancerrrr]

You had an ability back home?

[floridas]

Yeah... nothing like this at all.

[ she perches her elbows on part of vending machine. ]

Let me turn parts of my body into string, it was pretty handy. Called it "Stone Free."

[sharkgirl]

Huh. So why'd you get this do you think, then? [she's curious...] This doesn't look anything like string.

[floridas]

No idea. Learning how to fly is weird.

[ a little kind of frustrated flutter. ]

What'd you get...?

[ pink person who totally doesn't resemble an armadillo from the other day at all. not one bit. ]

[sharkgirl]

I can explode people's brains with my mind.

[stop]

[floridas]

Sick power. Surprised no one's brains are exploded yet. We need some excitement around here.

[sharkgirl]

What, the cola exploded everywhere and everybody's worlds being in grave danger is just a normal Tuesday to you?

[floridas]

Pretty much.

Prison's got all kinds of people. Some can turn you inside, some make ghost rooms, some of 'em can even make it rain frogs.

'Bout you?

[sharkgirl]

Whoa. I want to turn people inside out.

[a beat.]

Anyway, no. The Kingdom is peaceful and prosperous and nothing bad ever happens there. [she says this with such a bratty tone that it's obvious she's being sarcastic.]

[floridas]

There are definitely some people I'd like to turn inside out.

[ raising a brow so high, but like Amused. ]

The Kingdom, huh? What do you do there for fun then since nothing bad ever happens? Or do you just lay down and die of boredom if it's so peaceful?

[ can't be florida. ]

w0, MONDAY

[sharkgirl]

hey you
come try stuff from the vending machine with me again
there's one with potatoes
and energy drinks

[sharkgirl]

[yeah her too lol lmao

anyway, she shrugs.]

Graffiti, mostly. Sometimes I do a heist. Sometimes I eat babies. Depends on what I'm feeling that day.

[ok nimona]

[floridas]

hey you
that sounds dope as 🤡🤡🤡🤡!!!!
i'll be there in a min

[ girl's nyoomin', she even uses her wings to get there and just zooms straight through the door at mach fuck. ]

Wahoo!!!!

[ the communal lobby newspapers just go. flying. everywhere. but she'll touch down wherever nimona is and give a wave. ] Hey, there.

[floridas]

Babies, huh? What an interesting diet.

Maybe I should try that sometime.

[ stop ]

[sharkgirl]

[she cackles when she watches jolyne zoom through the lobby. yeah, her too, she feels it.]

Sup. [a little salute.] The clowns got you too, huh.

[sharkgirl]

You should barbecue them first, they're best that way.

[STOP]

[floridas]

Pfft, alright, alright.

[ waving her hand a bit. ]

Don't eat too many or you'll become one. Then what?

[floridas]

Yeah and it [ clown honk ] sucks. I'm like ten horn honks away from going postal.

What've you been up to?

[sharkgirl]

Everybody already thinks I'm one. [nyeh!!!!]

[sharkgirl]

Nothing, just looking around. I redecorated earlier.

[gestures at the vending machines.] And now I'm hungry, because I had to turn all of the chairs upside down by myself.

[floridas]

You don't look like any baby I've ever seen, way more teeth. Totally cooler than 99% of babies.

[ a wink ]

Thoooooough I'unno, if I squint you kinda remind me of this one not-an-armadillo named Nimona.
