Third Pastry ❥ special valentine's day video

[gumshoebreeder]

[The camera feed clicks on to Jane, Tenten, and a Bisharp. Jane looks awfully cheerful, as does Tenten. They finally got to meet up and as promised- Jane is teaching Tenten how to make chocolate. Sure the gifts would be a little late, BUT WHATEVER.]

Happy Valentine's day to everyone out there!

[Tenten’s not been the most successful one in the kitchen. Her fingers and forearms are coated in chocolate (how is a mystery for the ages), and there’s what’s probably cocoa powder smeared on her nose and cheeks (another mystery).]

Yeah, Happy Valentine’s Day! I guess? [Really she’s not all that sure why she’s on video for this other than to brag about their chocolate-making attempts?? Jane could totally have handled this part on her own.]

[Through convincing and flattery they have gotten Dart (the Bisharp) to wear an apron and help them out- so that probably looks pretty funny. Jane is pretty sure she explained to Tenten why they had to get on camera for this one, but it doesn’t matter. THEY NEEDED TO SAY HI TO THEIR KANTO FRIENDS SOMEHOW.]

We’ve actually made quite a lot and have some extras. So we highly encourage that you get in contact with us about getting some before we run out. [She holds up the tray, LOOK AT THESE. They are definitely heart shaped and knife shaped chocolates. Can you tell who made what. I bet you can’t.]

Some of you guys need to keep an eye out for a Pokémon headed your way. I already attached a couple boxes to them and sent them out, but since we only got them done today, it’s gonna be a little late. If you got a message from me, you know you’re getting something, I guess?

[Wow way to be exclusionary Tenten. Amazing.]

Anyone else can just ask. [And she glances toward Jane because hey, the other girl is the one who made sure the chocolates actually looked like what they’re supposed to be shaped like and that they won’t have a poison filling. And that they’ll taste good on top of all that.]

[Jane goes to end the feed, that is until one of those goo-like Pokemon just, falls in front of the camera. Jane nearly shrieks at the sight, taking a step back and observing the little goo pile looking back up at her. More at Jane’s shriek than at the sight of the Pokémon itself, Tenten grabs the closest weapon-like thing she can find -- a cooking spoon left to rest in one of the bowls from mixing the chocolate -- and points it at the little blob. Splattering chocolate on it and the camera in the process.]

[ooc: replies will be coming from usedswift and overbiterestart! plain text is Jane and colored text is Tenten!]

[usedswift]

I gotcha. You guys don't ever just want to go in different directions?

[friendyousohard]

Not since it dwindled down to just the three of us. When we had almost our whole group it was different, but now... the feeling that we should stick together is stronger than ever.

[usedswift]

Aah, yeah. That would make a difference.

[She shrugs and offers another smile.]

I guess it's different for me, though. I mean, I know that once I go home, I'll see all my friends again, same as always. But the friends I've made here? I want to spend as much time with them as possible.

[overbiterestart]

There is certainly plenty to eat over here. I could even make you some actual lunch if you're hungry!

[friendyousohard]

I can understand that logic perfectly. I might even feel the same way if it weren't for our bond and... well, the fact that I hadn't seen any of them for over a year starting from soon after I arrived.

[ghostytrainer]

Hehe, excellent. Sounds like it'll be interesting whenever this battle royale finally does happen.

[usedswift]

Oh? You arrived that much earlier than they did? I didn't know.

video; filtered

[usedswift]

Yeah! But for now, I guess I should let you get back to your preparations for your thing with Rose, right?

[friendyousohard]

Well, yes and no. All of my friends were here when I arrived, but then soon afterwards all but one of them left. It was just us two for that span of time.

[usedswift]

Oh... Yeah, I understand that. For a while, it looked like it was just going to be Naruto and me, but then Sakura showed up too. So there's fewer of us than there have been recently, but it's still nice to see them.

We apply physic theories to medicine.

Back home we found that radiation in smaller dose can help kill harmful cells. It's one way to treat cancer. There's many more things that's possible because of advancement in medicine. A lot of time, people probably don't really associate the word nuclear to medicine since the word tends to be paired more with weaponry or harmful substances.

[gardentrainer]

I used to have to cook all the time for myself that it's weird to be told that they'll make food for me instead.

Video

[usedswift]

Radiation...

[She doesn't get that either, sorry Jade. But something else catches her attention:]

Hang on, nuclear weapons? What're those?

[friendyousohard]

Wasn't there a huge amount of people from your world not so long ago? Did they all get sent home that quickly?

[usedswift]

Umm... I don't know what passes for quickly. I mean, some of them were only here for a month or two, but some of the others were here for a while before finally disappearing.

[She doesn't say so, but she hopes she's not next.]

[ghostytrainer]

Ah, right! Yeah I really should go...wash up. [He's covered in slightly less Bloober goo than yesterday, but still kind of more Bloober goo than is strictly necessary..] I'll talk to you later Tenten!

[friendyousohard]

Oh, sorry, I meant quickly as in they seemed to all leave one right after the other, not as in they were only here for a short amount of time.

[She'd be a little surprised by that, since most people seem to want to go home. Then again, given what she's heard of Tenten's world...]

They're weapons that use nuclear reactions. It's usually done by fission or a mix of fission and fusion. Let's say you have TnT. Just a lot of explosive. Think a loooooooooooooooooooooooot of explosives.

They're so strong and dangerous that they aren't usually used because of how destructive they are. These weapons can take entire cities, and the damage done can last for many, many years because of the radiation. Even after the initial explosion, the radiation that is caused by these bombs can cause birth defects and internal issues.

They sound reeeeeally cool, but they're not very nice.

Video

[overbiterestart]

Is it really that strange? [A look.] Well, rest assured. If you are hungry and don't feel like cooking. Please never hesitate to ask me.

[overbiterestart]

That sounds really amazing. Your friends sound really nice as well, to be so willing to help.

[Hmm.]

I think I would love to team up with Tenten someday, and I'm certain if I asked Jade or John they wouldn't mind either!

[usedswift]

Good luck!

[usedswift]

Oh... yeah, when you put it that way, I guess so. Honestly, I didn't keep in contact with all that many of them before; most of them are from my future, and it's... a little different.

Video

[usedswift]

[Do you see the way Tenten's hands are slowly coming up to rest under her chin. Do you see just how excited she's starting to look at the concept of such a massive weapon? She needs it.

...Or maybe not. Her expression starts to fall as Jade goes on, turning into a wince and a grimace.]

That's... not really what I was expecting, really, [she says finally with a shudder.] Weapons are fine as long as they only take out your opponent. Taking out people who've got nothing to do with anything isn't right.

[And yet, in her future, her village is going to be destroyed by a massive explosion. The less she knows...]

[friendyousohard]

Was there a problem with your future? Or had they just all changed so much it was hard to recognize them?

[friendyousohard]

They're the best I could ask for. I only wish they were all here.

I'm sure Tenten and you could make a great team. Jade I think is still pretty new, isn't she? You might have to give her some time. I don't think I'm familiar with John.
