Gothy is being creative, she does this quite a lot; she uses a mechanical that makes a flash and connects it to another mechanical. She takes the mechanicals hand and moves it around making things morph and then the mechanical spits it out when she's happy with it. She puts it up on the wall, and Italian Man comes wondering in, he looks confused as she replaced another hanging that was there before, but his face changes and he smiles, he likes it.
I think to myself that usually people take a while to get used to changes but Italian Man does it quickly, as if he had many changes in his life to get used to. Gothy and Italian Man look at it for a while, talking away. Sometimes I just like to listen to them.
Boss Man and Cake walk in then though, and Gothy takes them to the mechanicals brain, which stands in the center of the Lab, they must be looking at more ever-dense. I amuse myself with a little funny noise; Italian Man hears and raises his eyebrows but then turns to listen once more to what Gothy has to say.
Cake says something which makes Gothy talk about rats frying, I like that image and I listen a little closer, Boss Man says something, Cake joins in and Italian Man… he looks really confused so pulls a face. I laugh at them, they are amusing to watch, but then they all move into the other room.
I can't hear them from the other room so I sit and let my eyes wander around the Lab, from what I make out, a human fell from one of those flying plains with cool wings that flap, he did it voluntarily which I find stupid. Why would someone do that?
Basically his soup didn't open, I don't know how soup usually opens and I don't know why he'd jump out of a plain without making sure his soup would open, but he did. Silly humans, they sure do make me laugh sometimes.
I watch as the Boss Man leads Cake and Italian Man out the Lab, they look like they have a lead; it must be invisible as I sure don't see it. Hmm… I don't really see a lot of things these humans talk about.
Gothy is in the Lab with Cake running lots of the mechanicals, I let the hum wind it's way through me and mingle with the heartbeat. The mechanical makes a beep and Gothy starts spinning off about something called sull-fewer-ick acid. I don't really get this, why do people actually use things that have 'ick' in them, surely they must realise that it's not going to be very nice.
I roll my eyes, or I think I do, I'm still not too sure if it happens or if I just think it does. But enough about that, Cake is wearing a white coat like Gothy and has a huge smile on her face, she has just asked Gothy how she got into 'this'. I think she's talking about all the mechanicals and that, Fur N Sticks. That's what Gothy does, and does very well, Gothy tells her that she just filled out a foam.
As I say time and time again, humans say some silly things, how can anyone fill out foam, it's white and bubbly so if you do anything to it, all that happens is it eventually disappears. Why would you do something that doesn't last is beyond me!
Gothy is telling her she likes puzzles, I like puzzles too, and all this that goes on in the Lab is one huge puzzle to me… the world outside must be messed up! I can tell Cake and Gothy are going to be really good friends.
I like Cake.
Gothy is looking crazy at the moment, she has lots of strings and is running a blue light over them, Boss Man, Cake and Italian Man are here and she's talking about skin cells… Seriously, skin cells, cells that people lock skin up in. Why? I'm not sure but apparently it could lead to the person who leaves behind the ever-dense.
They all look, happy… I wish I had one of the mechanicals that make a flash and eventually spit out a picture. It would be a nice one, the making of a good team.
Abby has return to the Lab, she has a Dee and A sample, she puts it in the mechanical and it hums again in response. I wonder what it thinks about everything, I wonder how it would see everything. It must be strange, I guess the humans see things so differently too. Boss Man, Cake and Italian Man interrupt just as Gothy begins to do a celebration dance; I let out a quick noise in response.
Boss Man asks to see the backup soup, why would someone carry two soups with them? Gothy first shows them something on a flat mechanical that changes colors and shows different images. They mention something about 'der rugs'; the suspect has been cutting them and dealing them to others. Strange thing to do if you ask me, but I guess no one is.
Boss Man is checking the soups now, they're not what I imagined humans to eat, but I suppose I can't really comment, they probably taste really nice. He doesn't seem impressed with it though and asks to see another one, now he's talking about humans swapping the soup, after the man had jumped.
I think the ever-dense has led them to their suspect. Cool another one solved. The Boss Man leads Italian Man and Cake out the Lab, I watch Gothy doing her 'woohoo we did it again' dance and I let out my funny noise in victory.
I hear words floating through the air, apparently Italian Man fell out of the mechanical plain, and he hurt his leg, but not badly. People are saying he was pushed accidentally out of it but he enjoyed himself on the way down.
The landing was when he hurt his leg, but it's only a spring. The next time I see him I think, 'he isn't jumping like he has a spring', I guess it's another of those silly things humans say as he seems more stiff than anything, he has a slight limp, but he smiles at Gothy and she turns the heartbeat off, leaving the Lab in darkness.
I shut my eyes.
There you are, the next one. Hope you like it as much, any suggestions welcome! Any ideas for other stories also welcome!
