Prince Gumball got his oven mitts on, grabbed the oven door's handle, and pulled out a tray of steaming muffins. He had a wide smile on his face. He spoke, each successive word gaining in vehemence, "they... are... prefect!" He set the tray on the counter when a knock sounded at the kitchen door. He took off his mitts, and placed them carefully next to the stove. He walked over to the door, and opened it. Simone was standing there smiling, and waving her hand. Prince Gumball grinned half-heartedly, "hi?" He scanned her skin and body strangely, he said bluntly, "what are you?" He would've called for the guards, as anyone this far into the castle should've been escorted, but his scientific curiosity kept him from doing so. She sat herself down on a chair around a small table. She faced herself towards him, "that's not near as interesting of a question as what are you Prince Gumball?"
Gumball looked at her with an eyebrow raised, "I don't quite..." She interrupted him, lifting her legs onto the table, and crossing them, "I think you truly don't..." Simone pushed her glasses up to her eyes, and decided to change the subject of the conversation, "you have a scientific mind Gumball, wise beyond your years... How old are you?" Gumball's face showed his confusion, "I don't... have I seen your face before?" Simone raised her eyebrows, grinned, turned her head slightly, and quickly asked, "have you?" Gumball paused, "umm... you're skin... your shape... I must insist you answer my question, what are you?" She sighed, "well, I'm certainly not human... at least not entirely... not anymore..."
After a pause she continued, "those recent 'zombie' invasions you dealt with... your serum wasn't complete... It brought those candy people back to 'life', but not as candy people, as monsters." Gumball spoke, "y-yes... what are you getting at?" Simone continued, "that is their natural state... mindless monsters... you made them the way they are now didn't you? Just as you're 'natural' state isn't this prince is it? Something happened the day the bomb went off... you were created... but you weren't a mindless killing machine, in fact you helped me save Marshall..." Gumball sat himself across from her, "I don't believe, let alone understand a word you're saying. What does Marshall Lee have to do with this?" Simone whispered too quietly for him to hear, "perhaps you... really liked me... or Marshall..."
Simone shrugged, and seemed to completely drop the subject, "I am the Ice Queen, or at least I was..." Gumball exclaimed, "w-what?" Simone said, "calm down, I'm sane now. I don't do the capture prince thing anymore. My memories as Ice Queen are actually pretty foggy, but when I was the Ice Queen I believe I had a particular obsession with you Gumball..." She laughed, "You must forgive me, but I have taken an interest in studying the Ice Queen's madness, and the more I do the more I realize everything I did as her I did for a reason. No matter how illogical. I figure I kidnapped princes because my silly little pet name for my fiancé was 'my prince.' Little things like that, you know? I wondered for the longest of time why I was so obsessed with specifically you... I think I know now..." Simone chuckled, "I suppose that's not important though, is it?" Gumball stared at her introspectively, "I suppose it's not..."
Gumball said, "well... it's good to see you're doing better." Simone smiled, "yes." She stood up, walked towards the door, opened it, and stopped, "before I go..." She pulled a rectangular box out of her pack, and tossed it on the table, "I borrowed this from Marshall... I'm sure he won't mind... Watch it, I have a feeling you'll find it... educational."
She walked out of the room, and shut the door behind her. He looked at the box, written across the face of it in bold letters read; "Cheers: Season 1".
