Please prove me wrong// Lucky & Cory
Lucky was never really that eager for examinations, the idea of it always made him feel a little queasy–if that was even a real feeling. He didn’t like the look of the rooms, everything was white and too-clean and too-shiny in not the fun way. But, orders were orders and if these exams were needed, then Lucky would have to be there. He wished he’d told Dice or Chip to wait for him outside, but he wasn’t about to show them that he needed help. That would be whack, and Lucky was everything except whack.
He walked into the room and scrunched up his nose, but smiled upon seeing Cory there. The grin was a wide and toothy one, and he felt a little more at ease as her voice filled in the silence. It wasn’t always Cory or Samanthia or Juniper that did the examinations. Some of the time, they were too busy, and it had to be some other scientist, one of the more minor ones when it came to their project. Everything went a lot smoother and nicer and way more fun when it was one of the Big Three.
“Heeeyyyy,” the word was drawn out and he hopped up onto the table. “Y’know, I think you grew an inch or somethin’…” Lucky said, squinting at her. “Maybe half of one? Ehhh…” He measured her with his eyes, and shook his head. “Nah, I think it’s the shoes.”
“Ha. Ha.” she raised her brows at him, grabbing her clipboard, “I see your sense of humor is still intact.” Smile wide on her face. She actually had grown -- almost half an inch, about 780 millimeters but really, who was keeping count? “Come on Lucky, you know the routine, as it were.”
“Listen, I know you don’t like these so we’re going to make this quick and painless, okay?” She motioned towards the scale, rocking back and forth as she waited for him to step on it. “Lets see lets see, ooh, take your hat off Lucky” She smiled at im
Lucky had grown more than the half inch Cory had, and rather quickly too considering how often they did these. Well he was their growing boy. “Okay and let’s check hereeeeee; you gained some weight, have you been eating those macaroons I told you about? They’re delicious, aren’t they?” The thought of them made Cory slightly hungry, “Ooooh, we should get some after this. Don’t you think?”
She slithered over to the bed, writing down notes as she did. She gave a slight bow as she gestured over to the bed with both hands, making it a bit-too-dramatic invitation. “Come, sit and say sssssssss, I mean, aaaaahhhh...”
