[Today, two unforgivable errors were made: the first, he let Rosette use the kitchen.

The second: He let Rosette use the kitchen.

When the feed blinks to life, the serenity of the figure facing the camera is directly at odds with the thunderous cacophony in the background. Chrono just smiles blandly at his unseen audience as a terrible burst of sparks makes itself visible in—is his back to the apartment's kitchen?]


I just had a quick question. [He might as well dive right into it, as a crash echoes around the apartment. He doesn't even flinch.] Does anyone here know how to repair electronics? A microwave, specifically? I think apartment number 304 could use your services.

[It's here that Rosette comes into view, hurdling around the corner as smoke billows in her wake; if Chrono were actually looking, he might think it seems appropriate for Rosette's definition of an entrance. It's unclear whether she's addressing Chrono or the tablet (even realizes he's talking to the tablet) when she bellows FIRE! THAT'S A FIRE! It's very likely the former based on how the serenity of Chrono's smile twitches into something that speaks silent danger for someone.]

Quickly, if it isn't too much trouble? [The feed doesn't cut off; evidently, his quiet fury is such that he completely forgets to turn off the tablet before hurling it across the room to go perform some manner of intervention.

It lands facing a ceiling that is growing increasingly smokey.]




action.

[Anyone who actually approaches apartment #304 will find an impressive cloud of black smoke billowing out of the open door that smells distinctly of burnt electronics and scorched metal. Rosette's voice will make itself known second, shouting about how the kitchen is out to get her and this isn't her fault.

If one actually ventures into the abyss (which speaks volumes toward a capacity for bad decisions, by the way), they'll find a frantic teenage girl and a long-suffering little kid trying to determine the best way to put out an impressive electrical fire.]

[No Chrono, it's cool. Maya's here and she's brought.... a bucket of water.]

[(In other words, there is no need to protect the fire from her, she would totally help it)]


Really? Because all I see is a lot of fire! And smoke.

[You are in clear need of her help. Clearly] Don't worry, I got this!
acemedium: (y u mad tho)

[More like an hero amirite]

[It actually is the tagline for her entire life, but Chrono is so capslock-y and urgent sounding she (luckily) pauses rather than throw it]


What? It's a fire! You put water on a fire! [THIS IS COMMON SENSE. Clearly]

[His hands are not CAPSLOCK-Y ENOUGH, so Maya just gives him a weird look instead]

What's so special about it?

Don't tell me.... [DRAMATIC PAUSE] You don't want it put out at all?!
acemedium: she'll beat you up with her noodle arms (Does Maya have to smack a bitch?)

[She squints at him suspiciously... she's onto you, Chrono]

What does electrocution have to do with it? [Your capslock motions might not be enough now!!!]

Don't make excuses! I know you're really trying to protect the fire!
acemedium: I got nothing wittier than that (NO U)

Aha! So you admit it! [She holds the bucket protectively, splashing herself slightly in the process (Well done, Maya)]

Are you some kind of argonist or something? [That's arsonist, Maya] Did you start the fire?!
acemedium: hottest shit all up in here (Why yes I am made out of awesome)

Action; omg Chrono I'm sorry

A likely story! Potatoes don't even have arms, how can they start fires?

[CHRONO PLS YOU ARE ACTING HIGHLY SUSPICIOUS]

Just let me take care of this! [And gun be attempting to get past you now, small flailing boy!]
