"Okay, fine, you can make that assumption," Dinadan said, gesturing with his tea cup. "But if you do, don't you need to take it all the way to -- oh crud, is that the time?!" Oooooops. "Sorry Dr. Choi, I've got lots of homework tonight and I really should get home and get started on it. Can we talk more about this later?"

"Sure Dinadan. Good luck on your homework."

"Study hard or death!" added the floating head that shared Dr. Choi's house with him.

"Bye Dr. Choi! Will do, Head!"

Dinadan gathered up his backpack and jogged home. It wasn't too far, and he only tripped over a curb once. His dad wasn't home yet, so he snagged a box of cake mix and a glass of milk on his way up to his bedroom. A few minutes, a fraction of the cake mix, and some mixing later resulted in a little cake baking away in his toy oven while he got started on his homework. He also turned on his computer and set his instant messaging status to "Here, doing homework".

	Need help? I can help if it's math or science! (Reply to this)(Thread)

	sonoftheatom 2010-05-29 08:09 am UTC (link)
	Nope, it's English. But thanks. And if I do ever need help in science, you might want to make sure I'm not an evil duplicate from an alternate universe or something first ;) (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	English? Bleagh. Better you than me. So... evil is dumb? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sonoftheatom 2010-06-01 07:51 pm UTC (link)
	Not that evil's necessarily stupid, it seeming like a poor overall life choice aside; but more that I'm not too shabby in the science department myself. Besides, I'm in chemistry this year. I figured out the relationship between chemistry and delicious baked goods and haven't had a problem with it since. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	...Since when can you bake and why haven't I gotten cookies yet? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sonoftheatom 2010-06-01 10:07 pm UTC (link)
	You haven't asked me for cookies yet, and depends on if you're talking real baking or toy-oven-with-a-light-bulb baking. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	tiny_tornado 2010-06-01 10:34 pm UTC (link)
	Cookies are cookies, as far as I'm concerned. No matter how they're made. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sonoftheatom 2010-06-01 10:59 pm UTC (link)
	I don't think I've tried making cookies in a toy oven. It's better suited for cake. Small, delicious cake. Dinadan leans over to check on said small, delicious cake. The light on the oven is still on, so it's not ready yet, but it's beginning to smell really, really good in his room. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Cake is also good. You have an easy bake oven?! That is adorable! :-) (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	WarriorGal: Hey there jungle boy. ;) What's up? (Reply to this)(Thread)

	SonOfTheAtom: Hey Petra! Nothing much. Late start on homework because talking with college professors is more fun than, you know, doing homwork. How are you? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	gal_gardner 2010-06-02 02:18 am UTC (link)
	WarriorGal: Naked, doing my toe-nails. Trying to decide what pasta to make tonight. The usual routine this night of the week. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sonoftheatom 2010-06-02 02:25 am UTC (link)
	Dinadan has to take a moment to focus on breathing and on the movie poster on his wall until he can not think about Petra being naked. Because his brain is more useful when it's working. Well, maybe more than a moment. SonOfTheAtom: You did that on purpose. What are the options, pasta-wise? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	gal_gardner 2010-06-02 02:28 am UTC (link)
	WarriorGal: Did what on purpose? Attempt to lure you over here with the promise of pasta? It's packaged stuff (potato gnocchi or spinach tortellini), but I'm making the sauce from scratch. Do you think lacy pink or cherry red is more my color? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sonoftheatom 2010-06-02 03:21 am UTC (link)
	SonOfTheAtom: Ooh. Tempting. I am currently abusing the fact Dad's not home to spoil my dinner with cake from a toy oven. I could bring stuff over and make a proper cake or a pie or something. Um. The pink? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	gal_gardner 2010-06-02 03:25 am UTC (link)
	WarriorGal: You still use an EZ Bake? That's adorable. You should definitely get yourself over here cutie. I can't wait to lick you (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	F14 Tomcatting: Din! How's it going, man? (Reply to this)(Thread)

	sonoftheatom 2010-06-02 10:18 pm UTC (link)
	SonOfTheAtom: Hey Henry! It's going okay. Had to cut a fun conversation short because of homework, but that's not unusual. You? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	lantern_kid 2010-06-03 01:11 am UTC (link)
	F14 Tomcatting: The weird shit-o-meter is going off over here. Avalon's not waking up. Like there's something wrong, but Josh can't figure it out. We'll get it figured out, I'm sure... there's nothing physically wrong with him, anyway. Hey, I just realized, I hadn't told you I'm actually in a serious relationship now. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sonoftheatom 2010-06-03 01:30 am UTC (link)
	Dinadan stares at his computer screen for a moment, homework forgotten. Only Henry would put "a friend of mine mysteriously won't wake up" and "I'm in a relationship" in the same instant message. SonOfTheAtom: I'll come back to the relationship part. Have you called anyone for help about the mysterious coma? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	lantern_kid 2010-06-03 03:02 am UTC (link)
	F14 Tomcatting: I've got one of the most powerful healers on the planet here, keeping an eye on him. Not sure what else we can do for the moment. We're figuring it out. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sonoftheatom 2010-06-03 04:20 am UTC (link)
	SonOfTheAtom: I don't doubt you will. Just wanted to know if you wanted me to call someone magical or something to take a look. So. Relationship? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	lantern_kid 2010-06-03 12:05 pm UTC (link)
	F14 Tomcatting: Thanks for the offer, man. Yeah. Well, relationships. I'm kinda seeing three people. Don't worry, they all know about each other. And not a word to your dad, because he'd tell my dad, and he doesn't know yet. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sonoftheatom 2010-06-04 06:26 pm UTC (link)
	SonOfTheAtom: Tell me when you've got it figured out so I can stop worrying. Dinadan cocks his head as he considers the second part. SonOfTheAtom: ...You know, somehow I'm not really shocked. But my lips are sealed. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
