"Puffball?" Bio asks, knocking on the door to Membrane's bungalow.

@bio-toxins

(Membrane gets the door in a blue wavy tee and black cycling shorts that show off their muscles, with ankle boots. Membranes makeup has clearly just been taken off, and dey smile upon seeing Bio)

Hey!

One hand is on his steering wheel, the other on his lap.

Soon enough they pull up to the mansion, where he gets out and opens the door for dem.

Thank you, thank you.

(Ae get out and hug him for a moment, kissing his forehead before taking his hand)

Onward- to food!

The moment they walk into the kitchen, Trix is busy making multiple foods.

They've got rock music playing from their radio, with seasoned Powerpup meatballs and spaghetti being cooked in one pot and their famous stuffed mushrooms being assembled currently, other pots and pans with stuff in them also around.

Trix waves.

(Dey wave back, taking a long sniff in and practically drooling)

Mmmmmmm… all mine.

Trix laughs. "Want the rundown of what I've got?"

I’d love it.

(Ae casually change from holding hands to putting an arm round his duckling)

Trix hums. "Spaghetti with tomato sauce and seasoned Powerpup meatballs. My stuffed mushrooms with ground turkey and cheese. Brussels cooked in bacon and garlic. Bean soup. Oh and bread pudding with pecans and bourbon brown sugar sauce!"

They finish stuffing the mushrooms and put them in the oven and go back to cooking.

Bio mutters 'damn.'

Well damn… shame I’m eating all of it by myself.

(Dey’re obviously joking)

Trix nods. "Shame."

Bio jokes about offering help, to which Trix pins him with a glare. He laughs and mutters he's joking.

Careful now duck, Trix’ll have you roasted.

(Membrane jokes)

Bio laughs. "Awh, man...."

"it'd suck to tenderize your muscle-y self." Trix mutters.

I wouldn’t let ‘em, but they might best me.

(It casually flexes out the other arms muscles)

Bio laughs and Trix smiles before checking their stuffed mushrooms in the oven. They grab a kitchen towel and pull the tray out before radioing each member and saying to come eat as they grab plates with their free hand.

(Ae let Bio go first, looking at it all)

I can take some to Scotch if he doesn’t feel like coming down?

"I'll go ask." Trix says, walking off.

They come down with Scotch a moment later, who's obviously feeling better. He ruffles Trix's hair and gets in line with Plasma, Pixie, Honey, Bio. He waves at Membrane and offers to let aem go in front of him.

(Ae do go in front, signing thanks to him and joining the queue)

Scotch nods and smiles. "How you doing, Membrane?"

Trix gets in line behind him, the last person to get food. Everyone is buzzing and talking and happy as they fill their plates and thank Trix on their way to the living area to lounge and eat.

I’m doing alright! A little banged up, but I’ll be fine soon enough… how’ve you been?

(Ae grin a little as they load a plate and offer to help load his)

Scotch smiles and declines the help, filling his own plate with the spaghetti meatballs and the brussels along with a singular stuffed mushroom.

"Hear ya. Let us know if we can help. I've been doing just fine. I went out and bought Trix some paint today since my hips felt up to it."

Trix smiles behind him and loads up her plate.

Nice! What paints did you get?

(Ae ask with its plate carrying one of everything)

"I got a couple blues and blacks and greens. It's what the stall had most of today." He shrugs, sitting in a nice plush recliner. Plasma and Honey are on the 3 person couch next to it, Pixie is in a loveseat, and Bio is in another 3 person couch across from the loveseat.

Trix sits in an office chair between Plasma and Scotch.

(Membrane stays standing, eating slow)

Shiny. I would’ve been there, but I ditched way early…

"That's alright." Scotch shrugs, putting the leg rest up a little.

Least you didn’t see any of the chaos.

(Ae shrug, before shoving a large mouthful of food down deir gullet like it hasn’t eaten since last week)

"That bad, huh?" Scotch mutters, taking slow bites of his food.

Everybody else is talking and laughing with each other. Trix is eerily quiet as they eat. They never really have much to say, but this is quiet even for them.

(Membrane keeps half an eye on Trix, observing with concern ae mask by continuing to talk to Scotch)

Oh, it was that bad. Absolute nonsense. Fighting and stuff.

"Hear ya." Scotch nods, eating quietly.

Trix eats slowly, not bothering to speak.

‘S the last time I try to help.

(Ae frown a little to aemself)

Enjoying your food, Trix?

Trix nods. "Mhm. I made it." They give a little smile.

Which makes it a million percent tastier.

(Ae smile, still eating)

"Mhm..." Trix takes another bite.

(Membrane switches aer weight to the other leg, enjoying being with all of them. Ae would never admit to feeling like dey have a family here, only because ae miss its own family still- nothing ever admitted out loud of course)

Bio gestures at Membrane to his seat, a silent offer.

(Ae sigh, grinning at Scotch before going and sitting down)

Hi duck.

"Mmmmm.... Puffball." He smiles, scooting closer

(Ae grin, eating more food)

Missed you.

A loud dramatic sigh. "Missed you, too."

Trix rolls their eyes.

(Ae roll deir eyes right back while eating)

Food good.

Bio nods. "Very good. Thank you for cooking, Trix!"

Trix mutters a tiny 'no problem' with a small smile.

(Ae smile, finishing deir plate and resting it on aer knee for a moment)

That hit the spot.

"Didn't it, though?" Scotch smiles. "Trix always cooks well."

"They do." Bio nods.

My stomach definitely agrees!

(Membrane smiles at Trix, mildly concerned at their quietness now)

"Have as much as you guys want." Trix mutters, mustering a semi-bright smile.

Bio gets up, ruffles their hair, and grabs more food. "It's all mine!"

"I will eat leftovers, but I've taken some meds." Scotch explains sadly.

"That's fine." Trix nods, not sounding too sad at the fact he's not eating much tonight.

Woah hold up!

(Membrane immediately goes to grab more food, poking Bio lightly)

You can’t just have all of it!

"Yes I can!" Bio grins, poking dem back as he stacks his plate with plenty of food.

Not if I have all of it first!

(Ae happily continue loading its own plate, before sitting down again. There isn’t much on this second helping, but that’s just because ae’re getting full and tired)

Bio sits down and starts eating, very happy.

Trix gets a second plate to eat, and then everyone else does.

(Dey continue eating, listening to everything around instead of talking now- its long day beginning to have effects)

Pixie arguing about how overly sugared things are better than overly salted things, and how drugs aren't that bad, with Plasma.

Scotch is talking about groceries and art supplies with Trix, waiting several minutes between each sentence for Trix's response.

Honey is quietly eating, occasionally jumping in with Plasma and Pixie.

Bio is eating, one hand rubbing circles on Membrane's shoulder.

(Ae just listen still, eyes a little droopy now)

"Bio keeps rubbing little circles on aer shoulder, eating quietly.

The conversations bounce around some more.

Mmm…

(Ae rest the plate on one knee before leaning against Bio)

"Do you want me to take you home or have you sleep in my room?" Bio whispers.

Can I sleep in your bed?

(Ae ask quietly, holding back a yawn)

"Always." Bio nods. "Want me to come with?"

Only if you’re ready…?

(Ae sigh, very sleepy)

"C'mon." Bio smiles, kissing aer cheek and standing up, saying he's tired to the group. They all wish him bye.

(Ae wave a little to the group as dey stand up and follow him)

Mmmm…

Bio smiles and leads aem up to his room, opening the door and sitting on the plush bed.

(Ae sit next to him and immediately curls up)

Hi…

He pulls aem closer. "Mmm... Hi..."

(Dey smile immediately, trying to melt into him)

I love you.

"Love you, too." Bio smiles, kissing deir forehead.

(Ae hum, interrupted by a yawn as it snuggles up)

Mm…

He runs a hand through aer hair, pulling the blanket up over them both.

Night…

(Membrane mumbles as ae cuddle close, breathing in his scent and sounding half asleep already)

Bio pushes hair out from Membrane's face, muttering a soft "goodnight."

"Puffball?" Bio asks, knocking on the door to Membrane's bungalow.

Trix gets a second plate to eat, and then everyone else does.

(Dey continue eating, listening to everything around instead of talking now- its long day beginning to have effects)

Pixie arguing about how overly sugared things are better than overly salted things, and how drugs aren't that bad, with Plasma.

Scotch is talking about groceries and art supplies with Trix, waiting several minutes between each sentence for Trix's response.

Honey is quietly eating, occasionally jumping in with Plasma and Pixie.

Bio is eating, one hand rubbing circles on Membrane's shoulder.

(Ae just listen still, eyes a little droopy now)

"Bio keeps rubbing little circles on aer shoulder, eating quietly.

The conversations bounce around some more.

Mmm…

(Ae rest the plate on one knee before leaning against Bio)

"Do you want me to take you home or have you sleep in my room?" Bio whispers.

Can I sleep in your bed?

(Ae ask quietly, holding back a yawn)

"Always." Bio nods. "Want me to come with?"

Only if you’re ready…?

(Ae sigh, very sleepy)

"C'mon." Bio smiles, kissing aer cheek and standing up, saying he's tired to the group. They all wish him bye.

(Ae wave a little to the group as dey stand up and follow him)

Mmmm…

Bio smiles and leads aem up to his room, opening the door and sitting on the plush bed.

(Ae sit next to him and immediately curls up)

Hi…

He pulls aem closer. "Mmm... Hi..."

"Puffball?" Bio asks, knocking on the door to Membrane's bungalow.

@bio-toxins

(Membrane gets the door in a blue wavy tee and black cycling shorts that show off their muscles, with ankle boots. Membranes makeup has clearly just been taken off, and dey smile upon seeing Bio)

Hey!

One hand is on his steering wheel, the other on his lap.

Soon enough they pull up to the mansion, where he gets out and opens the door for dem.

Thank you, thank you.

(Ae get out and hug him for a moment, kissing his forehead before taking his hand)

Onward- to food!

The moment they walk into the kitchen, Trix is busy making multiple foods.

They've got rock music playing from their radio, with seasoned Powerpup meatballs and spaghetti being cooked in one pot and their famous stuffed mushrooms being assembled currently, other pots and pans with stuff in them also around.

Trix waves.

(Dey wave back, taking a long sniff in and practically drooling)

Mmmmmmm… all mine.

Trix laughs. "Want the rundown of what I've got?"

I’d love it.

(Ae casually change from holding hands to putting an arm round his duckling)

Trix hums. "Spaghetti with tomato sauce and seasoned Powerpup meatballs. My stuffed mushrooms with ground turkey and cheese. Brussels cooked in bacon and garlic. Bean soup. Oh and bread pudding with pecans and bourbon brown sugar sauce!"

They finish stuffing the mushrooms and put them in the oven and go back to cooking.

Bio mutters 'damn.'

Well damn… shame I’m eating all of it by myself.

(Dey’re obviously joking)

Trix nods. "Shame."

Bio jokes about offering help, to which Trix pins him with a glare. He laughs and mutters he's joking.

Careful now duck, Trix’ll have you roasted.

(Membrane jokes)

Bio laughs. "Awh, man...."

"it'd suck to tenderize your muscle-y self." Trix mutters.

I wouldn’t let ‘em, but they might best me.

(It casually flexes out the other arms muscles)

Bio laughs and Trix smiles before checking their stuffed mushrooms in the oven. They grab a kitchen towel and pull the tray out before radioing each member and saying to come eat as they grab plates with their free hand.

(Ae let Bio go first, looking at it all)

I can take some to Scotch if he doesn’t feel like coming down?

"I'll go ask." Trix says, walking off.

They come down with Scotch a moment later, who's obviously feeling better. He ruffles Trix's hair and gets in line with Plasma, Pixie, Honey, Bio. He waves at Membrane and offers to let aem go in front of him.

(Ae do go in front, signing thanks to him and joining the queue)

Scotch nods and smiles. "How you doing, Membrane?"

Trix gets in line behind him, the last person to get food. Everyone is buzzing and talking and happy as they fill their plates and thank Trix on their way to the living area to lounge and eat.

I’m doing alright! A little banged up, but I’ll be fine soon enough… how’ve you been?

(Ae grin a little as they load a plate and offer to help load his)

Scotch smiles and declines the help, filling his own plate with the spaghetti meatballs and the brussels along with a singular stuffed mushroom.

"Hear ya. Let us know if we can help. I've been doing just fine. I went out and bought Trix some paint today since my hips felt up to it."

Trix smiles behind him and loads up her plate.

Nice! What paints did you get?

(Ae ask with its plate carrying one of everything)

"I got a couple blues and blacks and greens. It's what the stall had most of today." He shrugs, sitting in a nice plush recliner. Plasma and Honey are on the 3 person couch next to it, Pixie is in a loveseat, and Bio is in another 3 person couch across from the loveseat.

Trix sits in an office chair between Plasma and Scotch.

(Membrane stays standing, eating slow)

Shiny. I would’ve been there, but I ditched way early…

"That's alright." Scotch shrugs, putting the leg rest up a little.

Least you didn’t see any of the chaos.

(Ae shrug, before shoving a large mouthful of food down deir gullet like it hasn’t eaten since last week)

"That bad, huh?" Scotch mutters, taking slow bites of his food.

Everybody else is talking and laughing with each other. Trix is eerily quiet as they eat. They never really have much to say, but this is quiet even for them.

(Membrane keeps half an eye on Trix, observing with concern ae mask by continuing to talk to Scotch)

Oh, it was that bad. Absolute nonsense. Fighting and stuff.

"Hear ya." Scotch nods, eating quietly.

Trix eats slowly, not bothering to speak.

‘S the last time I try to help.

(Ae frown a little to aemself)

Enjoying your food, Trix?

Trix nods. "Mhm. I made it." They give a little smile.

Which makes it a million percent tastier.

(Ae smile, still eating)

"Mhm..." Trix takes another bite.

(Membrane switches aer weight to the other leg, enjoying being with all of them. Ae would never admit to feeling like dey have a family here, only because ae miss its own family still- nothing ever admitted out loud of course)

Bio gestures at Membrane to his seat, a silent offer.

(Ae sigh, grinning at Scotch before going and sitting down)

Hi duck.

"Mmmmm.... Puffball." He smiles, scooting closer

(Ae grin, eating more food)

Missed you.

A loud dramatic sigh. "Missed you, too."

Trix rolls their eyes.

(Ae roll deir eyes right back while eating)

Food good.

Bio nods. "Very good. Thank you for cooking, Trix!"

Trix mutters a tiny 'no problem' with a small smile.

(Ae smile, finishing deir plate and resting it on aer knee for a moment)

That hit the spot.

"Didn't it, though?" Scotch smiles. "Trix always cooks well."

"They do." Bio nods.

My stomach definitely agrees!

(Membrane smiles at Trix, mildly concerned at their quietness now)

"Have as much as you guys want." Trix mutters, mustering a semi-bright smile.

Bio gets up, ruffles their hair, and grabs more food. "It's all mine!"

"I will eat leftovers, but I've taken some meds." Scotch explains sadly.

"That's fine." Trix nods, not sounding too sad at the fact he's not eating much tonight.

Woah hold up!

(Membrane immediately goes to grab more food, poking Bio lightly)

You can’t just have all of it!

"Yes I can!" Bio grins, poking dem back as he stacks his plate with plenty of food.

Not if I have all of it first!

Pixie arguing about how overly sugared things are better than overly salted things, and how drugs aren't that bad, with Plasma.

Scotch is talking about groceries and art supplies with Trix, waiting several minutes between each sentence for Trix's response.

Honey is quietly eating, occasionally jumping in with Plasma and Pixie.

Bio is eating, one hand rubbing circles on Membrane's shoulder.

(Ae just listen still, eyes a little droopy now)

"Bio keeps rubbing little circles on aer shoulder, eating quietly.

The conversations bounce around some more.

Mmm…

(Ae rest the plate on one knee before leaning against Bio)

"Do you want me to take you home or have you sleep in my room?" Bio whispers.

"Puffball?" Bio asks, knocking on the door to Membrane's bungalow.

@bio-toxins

(Membrane gets the door in a blue wavy tee and black cycling shorts that show off their muscles, with ankle boots. Membranes makeup has clearly just been taken off, and dey smile upon seeing Bio)

Hey!

One hand is on his steering wheel, the other on his lap.

Soon enough they pull up to the mansion, where he gets out and opens the door for dem.

Thank you, thank you.

(Ae get out and hug him for a moment, kissing his forehead before taking his hand)

Onward- to food!

The moment they walk into the kitchen, Trix is busy making multiple foods.

They've got rock music playing from their radio, with seasoned Powerpup meatballs and spaghetti being cooked in one pot and their famous stuffed mushrooms being assembled currently, other pots and pans with stuff in them also around.

Trix waves.

(Dey wave back, taking a long sniff in and practically drooling)

Mmmmmmm… all mine.

Trix laughs. "Want the rundown of what I've got?"

I’d love it.

(Ae casually change from holding hands to putting an arm round his duckling)

Trix hums. "Spaghetti with tomato sauce and seasoned Powerpup meatballs. My stuffed mushrooms with ground turkey and cheese. Brussels cooked in bacon and garlic. Bean soup. Oh and bread pudding with pecans and bourbon brown sugar sauce!"

They finish stuffing the mushrooms and put them in the oven and go back to cooking.

Bio mutters 'damn.'

Well damn… shame I’m eating all of it by myself.

(Dey’re obviously joking)

Trix nods. "Shame."

Bio jokes about offering help, to which Trix pins him with a glare. He laughs and mutters he's joking.

Careful now duck, Trix’ll have you roasted.

(Membrane jokes)

Bio laughs. "Awh, man...."

"it'd suck to tenderize your muscle-y self." Trix mutters.

I wouldn’t let ‘em, but they might best me.

(It casually flexes out the other arms muscles)

Bio laughs and Trix smiles before checking their stuffed mushrooms in the oven. They grab a kitchen towel and pull the tray out before radioing each member and saying to come eat as they grab plates with their free hand.

(Ae let Bio go first, looking at it all)

I can take some to Scotch if he doesn’t feel like coming down?

"I'll go ask." Trix says, walking off.

They come down with Scotch a moment later, who's obviously feeling better. He ruffles Trix's hair and gets in line with Plasma, Pixie, Honey, Bio. He waves at Membrane and offers to let aem go in front of him.

(Ae do go in front, signing thanks to him and joining the queue)

Scotch nods and smiles. "How you doing, Membrane?"

Trix gets in line behind him, the last person to get food. Everyone is buzzing and talking and happy as they fill their plates and thank Trix on their way to the living area to lounge and eat.

I’m doing alright! A little banged up, but I’ll be fine soon enough… how’ve you been?

(Ae grin a little as they load a plate and offer to help load his)

Scotch smiles and declines the help, filling his own plate with the spaghetti meatballs and the brussels along with a singular stuffed mushroom.

"Hear ya. Let us know if we can help. I've been doing just fine. I went out and bought Trix some paint today since my hips felt up to it."

Trix smiles behind him and loads up her plate.

Nice! What paints did you get?

(Ae ask with its plate carrying one of everything)

"I got a couple blues and blacks and greens. It's what the stall had most of today." He shrugs, sitting in a nice plush recliner. Plasma and Honey are on the 3 person couch next to it, Pixie is in a loveseat, and Bio is in another 3 person couch across from the loveseat.

Trix sits in an office chair between Plasma and Scotch.

(Membrane stays standing, eating slow)

Shiny. I would’ve been there, but I ditched way early…

"That's alright." Scotch shrugs, putting the leg rest up a little.

Least you didn’t see any of the chaos.

(Ae shrug, before shoving a large mouthful of food down deir gullet like it hasn’t eaten since last week)

"That bad, huh?" Scotch mutters, taking slow bites of his food.

Everybody else is talking and laughing with each other. Trix is eerily quiet as they eat. They never really have much to say, but this is quiet even for them.

(Membrane keeps half an eye on Trix, observing with concern ae mask by continuing to talk to Scotch)

Oh, it was that bad. Absolute nonsense. Fighting and stuff.

"Hear ya." Scotch nods, eating quietly.

Trix eats slowly, not bothering to speak.

‘S the last time I try to help.

(Ae frown a little to aemself)

Enjoying your food, Trix?

Trix nods. "Mhm. I made it." They give a little smile.

Which makes it a million percent tastier.

(Ae smile, still eating)

"Mhm..." Trix takes another bite.

(Membrane switches aer weight to the other leg, enjoying being with all of them. Ae would never admit to feeling like dey have a family here, only because ae miss its own family still- nothing ever admitted out loud of course)

Bio gestures at Membrane to his seat, a silent offer.

(Ae sigh, grinning at Scotch before going and sitting down)

Hi duck.

"Mmmmm.... Puffball." He smiles, scooting closer

(Ae grin, eating more food)

Missed you.

A loud dramatic sigh. "Missed you, too."

Trix rolls their eyes.

(Ae roll deir eyes right back while eating)

Food good.

Bio nods. "Very good. Thank you for cooking, Trix!"

Trix mutters a tiny 'no problem' with a small smile.

(Ae smile, finishing deir plate and resting it on aer knee for a moment)

That hit the spot.

"Didn't it, though?" Scotch smiles. "Trix always cooks well."

"They do." Bio nods.

My stomach definitely agrees!

(Membrane smiles at Trix, mildly concerned at their quietness now)

"Have as much as you guys want." Trix mutters, mustering a semi-bright smile.

Bio gets up, ruffles their hair, and grabs more food. "It's all mine!"

"I will eat leftovers, but I've taken some meds." Scotch explains sadly.

"That's fine." Trix nods, not sounding too sad at the fact he's not eating much tonight.

Woah hold up!

(Membrane immediately goes to grab more food, poking Bio lightly)

You can’t just have all of it!

"Yes I can!" Bio grins, poking dem back as he stacks his plate with plenty of food.

Not if I have all of it first!

(Ae happily continue loading its own plate, before sitting down again. There isn’t much on this second helping, but that’s just because ae’re getting full and tired)

Bio sits down and starts eating, very happy.

Soon enough they pull up to the mansion, where he gets out and opens the door for dem.

(Ae get out and hug him for a moment, kissing his forehead before taking his hand)

Onward- to food!

The moment they walk into the kitchen, Trix is busy making multiple foods.

They've got rock music playing from their radio, with seasoned Powerpup meatballs and spaghetti being cooked in one pot and their famous stuffed mushrooms being assembled currently, other pots and pans with stuff in them also around.

Trix hums. "Spaghetti with tomato sauce and seasoned Powerpup meatballs. My stuffed mushrooms with ground turkey and cheese. Brussels cooked in bacon and garlic. Bean soup. Oh and bread pudding with pecans and bourbon brown sugar sauce!"

They finish stuffing the mushrooms and put them in the oven and go back to cooking.

Bio mutters 'damn.'

Well damn… shame I’m eating all of it by myself.

(Dey’re obviously joking)

Trix nods. "Shame."

Bio jokes about offering help, to which Trix pins him with a glare. He laughs and mutters he's joking.

Careful now duck, Trix’ll have you roasted.

(Membrane jokes)

Bio laughs. "Awh, man...."

"it'd suck to tenderize your muscle-y self." Trix mutters.

I wouldn’t let ‘em, but they might best me.

(It casually flexes out the other arms muscles)

Bio laughs and Trix smiles before checking their stuffed mushrooms in the oven. They grab a kitchen towel and pull the tray out before radioing each member and saying to come eat as they grab plates with their free hand.

(Ae let Bio go first, looking at it all)

I can take some to Scotch if he doesn’t feel like coming down?

"I'll go ask." Trix says, walking off.

They come down with Scotch a moment later, who's obviously feeling better. He ruffles Trix's hair and gets in line with Plasma, Pixie, Honey, Bio. He waves at Membrane and offers to let aem go in front of him.

(Ae do go in front, signing thanks to him and joining the queue)

Scotch nods and smiles. "How you doing, Membrane?"

Trix gets in line behind him, the last person to get food. Everyone is buzzing and talking and happy as they fill their plates and thank Trix on their way to the living area to lounge and eat.

I’m doing alright! A little banged up, but I’ll be fine soon enough… how’ve you been?

(Ae grin a little as they load a plate and offer to help load his)

Scotch smiles and declines the help, filling his own plate with the spaghetti meatballs and the brussels along with a singular stuffed mushroom.

"Hear ya. Let us know if we can help. I've been doing just fine. I went out and bought Trix some paint today since my hips felt up to it."

Trix smiles behind him and loads up her plate.

Nice! What paints did you get?

(Ae ask with its plate carrying one of everything)

"I got a couple blues and blacks and greens. It's what the stall had most of today." He shrugs, sitting in a nice plush recliner. Plasma and Honey are on the 3 person couch next to it, Pixie is in a loveseat, and Bio is in another 3 person couch across from the loveseat.

Trix sits in an office chair between Plasma and Scotch.

(Membrane stays standing, eating slow)

Shiny. I would’ve been there, but I ditched way early…

"That's alright." Scotch shrugs, putting the leg rest up a little.

Least you didn’t see any of the chaos.

(Ae shrug, before shoving a large mouthful of food down deir gullet like it hasn’t eaten since last week)

"That bad, huh?" Scotch mutters, taking slow bites of his food.

Everybody else is talking and laughing with each other. Trix is eerily quiet as they eat. They never really have much to say, but this is quiet even for them.

(Membrane keeps half an eye on Trix, observing with concern ae mask by continuing to talk to Scotch)

Oh, it was that bad. Absolute nonsense. Fighting and stuff.

"Hear ya." Scotch nods, eating quietly.

Trix eats slowly, not bothering to speak.

‘S the last time I try to help.

(Ae frown a little to aemself)

Enjoying your food, Trix?

Trix nods. "Mhm. I made it." They give a little smile.

Which makes it a million percent tastier.

(Ae smile, still eating)

"Mhm..." Trix takes another bite.

(Membrane switches aer weight to the other leg, enjoying being with all of them. Ae would never admit to feeling like dey have a family here, only because ae miss its own family still- nothing ever admitted out loud of course)

Bio gestures at Membrane to his seat, a silent offer.

(Ae sigh, grinning at Scotch before going and sitting down)

Hi duck.

"Mmmmm.... Puffball." He smiles, scooting closer

(Ae grin, eating more food)

Missed you.

A loud dramatic sigh. "Missed you, too."

Trix rolls their eyes.

(Ae roll deir eyes right back while eating)

Food good.

Bio nods. "Very good. Thank you for cooking, Trix!"

Trix mutters a tiny 'no problem' with a small smile.

(Ae smile, finishing deir plate and resting it on aer knee for a moment)

That hit the spot.

"Didn't it, though?" Scotch smiles. "Trix always cooks well."

"They do." Bio nods.

"Puffball?" Bio asks, knocking on the door to Membrane's bungalow.

@bio-toxins

(Membrane gets the door in a blue wavy tee and black cycling shorts that show off their muscles, with ankle boots. Membranes makeup has clearly just been taken off, and dey smile upon seeing Bio)

Hey!

One hand is on his steering wheel, the other on his lap.

Soon enough they pull up to the mansion, where he gets out and opens the door for dem.

Thank you, thank you.

(Ae get out and hug him for a moment, kissing his forehead before taking his hand)

Onward- to food!

The moment they walk into the kitchen, Trix is busy making multiple foods.

They've got rock music playing from their radio, with seasoned Powerpup meatballs and spaghetti being cooked in one pot and their famous stuffed mushrooms being assembled currently, other pots and pans with stuff in them also around.

Trix waves.

(Dey wave back, taking a long sniff in and practically drooling)

Mmmmmmm… all mine.

Trix laughs. "Want the rundown of what I've got?"

I’d love it.

(Ae casually change from holding hands to putting an arm round his duckling)

Trix hums. "Spaghetti with tomato sauce and seasoned Powerpup meatballs. My stuffed mushrooms with ground turkey and cheese. Brussels cooked in bacon and garlic. Bean soup. Oh and bread pudding with pecans and bourbon brown sugar sauce!"

They finish stuffing the mushrooms and put them in the oven and go back to cooking.

Bio mutters 'damn.'

Well damn… shame I’m eating all of it by myself.

(Dey’re obviously joking)

Trix nods. "Shame."

Bio jokes about offering help, to which Trix pins him with a glare. He laughs and mutters he's joking.

Careful now duck, Trix’ll have you roasted.

(Membrane jokes)

Bio laughs. "Awh, man...."

"it'd suck to tenderize your muscle-y self." Trix mutters.

I wouldn’t let ‘em, but they might best me.

(It casually flexes out the other arms muscles)

Bio laughs and Trix smiles before checking their stuffed mushrooms in the oven. They grab a kitchen towel and pull the tray out before radioing each member and saying to come eat as they grab plates with their free hand.

(Ae let Bio go first, looking at it all)

I can take some to Scotch if he doesn’t feel like coming down?

"I'll go ask." Trix says, walking off.

They come down with Scotch a moment later, who's obviously feeling better. He ruffles Trix's hair and gets in line with Plasma, Pixie, Honey, Bio. He waves at Membrane and offers to let aem go in front of him.

(Ae do go in front, signing thanks to him and joining the queue)

Scotch nods and smiles. "How you doing, Membrane?"

Trix gets in line behind him, the last person to get food. Everyone is buzzing and talking and happy as they fill their plates and thank Trix on their way to the living area to lounge and eat.

I’m doing alright! A little banged up, but I’ll be fine soon enough… how’ve you been?

(Ae grin a little as they load a plate and offer to help load his)

Scotch smiles and declines the help, filling his own plate with the spaghetti meatballs and the brussels along with a singular stuffed mushroom.

"Hear ya. Let us know if we can help. I've been doing just fine. I went out and bought Trix some paint today since my hips felt up to it."

Trix smiles behind him and loads up her plate.

Nice! What paints did you get?

(Ae ask with its plate carrying one of everything)

"I got a couple blues and blacks and greens. It's what the stall had most of today." He shrugs, sitting in a nice plush recliner. Plasma and Honey are on the 3 person couch next to it, Pixie is in a loveseat, and Bio is in another 3 person couch across from the loveseat.
