Little late, but the Muse has some grievances...

[cyan_maid]

I have no idea why I'm still on speaking terms with you, Miss Mundane!!

It may have been a couple of weeks ago, but yes, I am still very upset about THIS!!!
So THIS is what you've been snickering about behind my back, eh? You decided to take away my BAKING?!
You're horrid! Despicable! Horrendous! Darn you, just...DARN YOU!!!

...I just wanted to bake a cake. You didn't have to make it impossible.
Why didn't you just take something else from me? A memory, or one of my things - my spoon, or my hat even!
I just feel so wrong without it, you know? I mean, really, a Crocker that can't bake is absolutely embarrassing!
I can make up for it, of course, but for you to have even thought of it, much less gone through with it...
It just PROVES that you're horrid!

And no, we are NOT talking about the "update"!!
It was all kinds of absurd and I'd rather not think about it, to be honest.

Of course! You have it for good and for ill.

Hoo hoo, those are some humdingers all right! Very good!
I will do my best to reach such title-crafting abilities in the future, if need be.

[princeisawake]

That's what friendships all about.
That shit is perfect for kid's television.
You could rock that.
You could be the next Barney, minus the ridiculous suit and poor repuation for being creepy.

Ha, you've got titles enough just by being you.
Maid of Life, Heiress of Crockercorp.
Those are some pretty hefty titles.
Titles don't define you though, and you can come up with them for yourself like I have.

[cyan_maid]

Hm, I think I will pass on that.
A career in children's programming, while certainly influential, would probably become very hectic, very quickly.
Imagine the swarms of unruly children! Think of the chaos, Dirk! :B

I agree, but that doesn't mean I can relax when it comes to living up to them!
At least a title you make on your own seems a little more manageable.

[princeisawake]

True.
Kids are a hassle.
Still, I'd content that you're the best equipped to deal with them.
You'd be great with kids.

True.
Sometimes titles you make for yourself are things you want to live up to too though.
It's hard to say.
All you can do is take a stand on who you want to be, and then go live it.

[cyan_maid]

What makes you say that?
I mean, I would surely try my darndest if I had to take care of children, but the opportunity hasn't presented itself yet.

That's a good way to think about it.

[princeisawake]

Just a hunch.
You seem like you'd make a good mother.

Are you intent on complimenting me in this conversation?

[cyan_maid]

Oh gosh, I don't know...
I think I'm still a bit too young to think about something like that!

Why, I do believe I am.

[princeisawake]

Shit, I didn't mean right now.
I just meant to say you have a maternal instinct that would be put to good use, if you ever had a kid.

Why?

[cyan_maid]

I know, I know!
I was just saying, is all.

Because I want to?

[princeisawake]

Sorry.
I should have clarified.
I didn't mean to make you uncomfortable; I was merely attempting to convey my thoughts on one of your strengths.
I don't expect you to be thinking about children at any point in the near future, and I'd honestly be pretty concerned if you thought getting knocked up now was a good idea.

Stop.
I have a big head as it is.
Who knows what will happen if it continues to swell.
My head may just pop like a balloon and splatter you with wet chunks of brain matter.
