Just got the welcome channel again
The Good Place, 5521 Bearimys later
"Janet?" I call out, Rosie gives me a look and a shake of the head to tell me that I really need to stop calling on Janet for literally no reason. "Sorry." I reply sarcastically and unapologetically. Picking up the frisbee from the lawn and throwing it for Harry to manically chase after.
"Yes, can I help you?" Janet says as she pops into existence beside me, I smile politely and nod over at Rosie who smirks back with her tongue poking out.
"Janet, do you know why the tv isn't working? We're only getting the welcome channel for some reason." I say, bending down to pick the frisbee back up from where Harry has dropped it at me willing feet.
"I don't know." Janet says, suddenly bending over like a much creepier robot and her hands bending into odd sorts of shapes. Janet has never said that she doesn't know something before, so maybe she's having some sort of meltdown.
"What's going on here?" Rosie says walking over with Harry and his happy smile at the orange frisbee perched deeply inside his gripping teeth. She takes a long look at Janet and pulls the manual for her out of her pocket, who knows why she's keeping that in there but then she has this face on that's biting her lip and bending over and sweating because of all the DIY energy she's putting into this.
She's so hot and sexy when she fixes things, in fact I've started to just let the fridge break every so often to let her fix it, a project Janet has been keen on helping me with. She's a believer in soulmates. Anyway, mine is now pulling out a paper clip and I have to reach forward to stop her.
"Woah, woah that's a bit drastic, don't you think?" She looks at me and then rolls her eyes, showing me the page in the manual that shows you how to 'reload' a Janet. It won't kill her exactly, just load her back up, like waking up in the morning. I let out an 'ohh' and sit back and watch as Rosie inserts the paperclip into a hole under Janet's chin (not something I'd noticed but ok) and after a few seconds she pulls herself up into an upright position.
"Janet reload in progress. Janet will not be available for help for _52 seconds_" Janet says, her voice robotic and out of place.
"I'd better go call Eleanor to tell her what happened with Janet." Rosie says, pulling out her phone and walking back towards the house. But before she can go I grab her hand and pull her close to me. She smiles and drops her phone, latching her lips to mind in a sweet tender kiss that turns passionate in seconds.
"I didn't know you had taken up DIY," I say flirting with my eyes, hers doing a beautiful brown dance as she winks at me, slaps her own ass and walks back to the house. Toolbelt still attached (a present from Janet it seems.)
