Woods Outside the Citadel, Camelot, Wednesday Morning

May 26, 2010 07:28

The phones were working. That warranted a trip out into the woods, under the pretense of going out for a ride with the Lady Morgana, to see how well their connection held up in Camelot. Contact some friends ( Read more... )

camelot, we call verizon, we get phone service here

The fifty-eighth time she'd tried calling since he left the text-messages? Fifty-ninth? Whatever. She stopped leaving voicemails after the first one, but like that was going to stop Francine from ringing.

"You better be there or we're coming after you guys somehow even if I have to offer to pole-dance for the Portalocity tickets guy."

Re: Call! - Merlin thatsamilkshake May 27 2010, 04:44:38 UTC

"...There was a deluxe bag of marshmallows in one of them?" Which... might be a little squished now.

Re: Call! - Merlin bigdamndestiny May 27 2010, 04:48:31 UTC

"Oh! I really ought to learn how they're made." So he could make them. Yes. This was a good idea.

Re: Call! - Merlin thatsamilkshake May 27 2010, 05:01:06 UTC

"Oooh, homemade marshmallows. That could be fun!" Because after all, what could he possibly do to marshmallows?

That had gelatin in them. Which he'd have to get from horse's hooves or Fandom. Francine would vote Fandom if she'd actually looked up the ingredients.

Re: Call! - Merlin bigdamndestiny May 27 2010, 05:02:26 UTC

...maybe cow hooves instead?

"Can you add things to them?" Like pine nuts!

Re: Call! - Merlin thatsamilkshake May 27 2010, 05:06:17 UTC

No. No. Nooooooooooo. "Um. Maybe food coloring? Marshmallows are more the kind of things you add to something else."

Re: Call! - Merlin bigdamndestiny May 27 2010, 05:12:06 UTC

"We don't have food coloring here." Other than, say, beets and onion skins.

Re: Call! - Merlin thatsamilkshake May 27 2010, 16:23:34 UTC

The scary thing is that beet juice would probably work. As long as he only wanted pink marshmallows.

"You might want to stick with adding marshmallows to other things, then," Francine suggested. Oh so brilliantly, because anyone with a brain could now picture Roast Swan With Marshmallows emerging from the palace kitchens. Good thing that wasn't an issue for Francine. "If you can get back to Fandom whenever you want to, though, you can always get more!"

Re: Call! - Merlin bigdamndestiny May 27 2010, 22:38:51 UTC

"And visit you guys," Merlin added cheerfully. "I'm already missing the plumbing, you know."

Re: Call! - Merlin thatsamilkshake May 28 2010, 00:41:47 UTC

"Oh, so you only love us for our bathroom. I see how it is!"

Re: Call! - Merlin bigdamndestiny May 28 2010, 03:34:49 UTC

"You try going without!"

Re: Call! - Merlin thatsamilkshake May 28 2010, 03:56:43 UTC

"I have. We just spent the last two days hiding in burned-out warehouses before we got here. I get it." Francine laughed more from relief that here she was laughing again than because it was all that funny. "Though now you've got me picturing you coming back to Fandom every time you need one."

Re: Call! - Merlin bigdamndestiny May 28 2010, 22:33:06 UTC

"...why were you in a burned out warehouse?" Sure, pick THAT, Merlin.

Re: Call! - Merlin thatsamilkshake May 29 2010, 04:48:49 UTC

It was probably better for all concerned than continuing the bathroom-related line of conversation, you have to admit.

"Portalocity dumped us in some weird run-down nightmare San Fransisco instead of the regular one," Francine said. "They got us out eventually, but we had to hide for a while."
