Voice-testing like crazy.

[littlechef]

Well, I have to say, I wasn't expecting you to ever make a journal for me. I thought it was just going to stick to all those short stories of yours...

But it's been a while since those days. Are you sure you're up for it?

[chuckle]

I'm glad you've started cooking, really. It's about time. But I don't think that changes anything.

Just... Think about it. And don't forget there's another rodent of yours you need to write an app for.

Comments

Because more threads are clearly what I need at this point.

[versiontwopointoh]

[...OH CREATOR IT'S A TALKING MOUSE. RAT? RODENT. TALKING RODENT.

mO_Om]

You talk!

CLEARLY. :3

[littlechef]

Currently. I can't always-- Well, no, I can always talk, but... Humans can't usually understand.

So, uh... What are you?

X3

[versiontwopointoh]

Oh! That must explain it, then. I'm not human.

[Ark gives the rat a small smile, curiousity outweighing the fact that his brain is screaming at him that this shouldn't be possible. He lives with a talking fish, after all.]

I'm an alien. Well. Kind of. [His smile drops and he bites on his lower lip.] It's a long story, but that's... Pretty accurate.

[littlechef]

An alien, huh?

Boy, Linguini would get a kick out of you. He watches movies about you guys all the time.

Well, that and superheros.

[versiontwopointoh]

Wow, I bet he'd love to meet my boyfriend, then. He's an alien and the greatest supervillain the world has ever seen.

[littlechef]

[Well, that is both cute and extremely awkward.]

Um, well, Linguini and I tend to root for the heroes.

[versiontwopointoh]

...Oh.

But what about when the hero is a jerk?

[littlechef]

Well, he usually isn't, or if he is, he sees the error of his ways when his family is in danger.

[versiontwopointoh]

...Huh.

[Thinkity...]

But that... Sounds more like Megamind than Metro Man.

[True, Megamind is still evil, but he's changed considerably since Ark arrived and he always looks out for him and Minion first and foremost.]

[littlechef]

I... Don't know who those people are.

[versiontwopointoh]

Oh! Right, sorry. I mean... My boyfriend and the hero.

[littlechef]

I don't know about the hero, but usually when the bad guy has someone he cares about -- Usually it's a pet. -- he ends up turning things around to save them.

[versiontwopointoh]

Really? I mean... He saved me.

He didn't stop being a villain, but... He's not just a villain. And...

[Ark hesitates, but... Well, the little rat did say that most people can't understand him.]

Between you and me, he isn't that despicable at all.

[littlechef]

Well.... He sounds like he could a do a turnaround to me.

But I've only seen movies.

[versiontwopointoh]

Huh. Really?

...I'm not sure how he'd like the idea of going straight, though. And... I don't want him to think that I want him to. I just - want him to be happy.

[littlechef]

Really.

And, well, I'm not sure I can do much in terms of relationship advice...

[minor_setback]

[Insert evil smile here.]

So you're interested in cooking, I take it? Perhaps I can come up with a few recipes of my own~.

[littlechef]

[minor_setback]

what's the matter? Did I get your tongue?

[Just slowly walking your way...]

[littlechef]

[Deer in headlights deer in headlights deer in headlights...

And running!]

[minor_setback]

[Evil the cat spits an acid furball to in front of the mouse.]

Now why would you go and run off like that? I just asked you a question.

[And implied you want to cook him, and are probably planning to torture him.]

[lanternlooking]

Muns can be pretty surprising sometimes, don't you think?

[littlechef]

Yeah... I guess they can be.

Honestly, I'm even more surprised about the cooking than anything else.

[lanternlooking]

Oh? Why? Cooking is a lot of fun!

[littlechef]

Oh, I couldn't agree more!

She... Well, in her defense, she was pretty young... But she used to be terrified of burning herself.

[lanternlooking]

I can see why she'd be nervous about it, then. But I'm sure she could cook great things if she tried.

[littlechef]

I think you have a bit more faith in her than I do.

But she's been learning. She's getting better.

[schrodingercat]

A rat that cooks. Now I've seen everything.

[littlechef]

Yeah, well...

It's a pretty... Rare sight.
