Room 511, Tuesday Afternoon

You really don't want to know how many teeth brushings it takes to get the smell of tamales off your breath. Talk about experiences coming back to haunt you... But they were soooo good.

Much safer for the comfort and well-being of anyone who actually had to talk to you were the nachos Francine had snatched on her way out of class, which were currently sitting on the corner of her bed as she lay sprawled out with her Child Development book.

Okay, her closed Child Development book, a note from Firekeeper marking her place, and an open copy of Buttercup's Baby. What? It was... sort of related. It totally counted as studying! Plus, tomorrow was her birthday, which totally counted as a child development research project, right? Thus, she was totally not slacking off. Totally.

"All of them!" Duh. "...Except the ones with anchovies."

Merlin nodded sagely at that one, shuffling his feet for a moment. "We could get one tomorrow, maybe?"

Francine smiled widely, then giggled. "We could put candles on it!"

Merlin opened his mouth to say something, but couldn't quite stay serious. "I hadn't known you eat those here."
thatsamilkshake: (tongue)

[personal profile] thatsamilkshake 2009-04-01 01:31 am (UTC)(link)
"Huh? No, we..." Francine narrowed her eyes and stuck her tongue out at him. "Yes. Yes, we do. They're high in riboflavin."

"...wax?" Big words! Just be glad he wasn't carrying that bloody dictionary with him all the time.

Oh sure, call her on the fact that she didn't actually know what riboflavin was. "It's... some kind of vitamin. That's very important for a healthy, balanced meal."

Merlin arched an eyebrow in a damn good impression of Gaius. It took practice to get to that point. "Candles? Really?"
thatsamilkshake: (bitch plz)

"Isn't modern science wonderful?" Francine crossed her arms and kept a straight face.

For a good twenty seconds at least!

Merlin was impressed! "I have some in my room if you wanted them on the nachos," He offered.
thatsamilkshake: (laughing - cracking up)

[personal profile] thatsamilkshake 2009-04-01 02:05 am (UTC)(link)
Twenty-two point five seconds, to be specific. Then came the cracking up.

Merlin won!

In the way that he was very shortly following suit. It still counted as a win!

"Candles," Francine said when she was something like composed again, "go on birthday cakes. It's a thing. You don't eat them. You just blow them out."

"Why candles?" Merlin asked, cocking his head to the side.

"...Because they're high in riboflavin?" she tried. "Um. k' fine, I don't actually know. It's just something we do. One for every year of your age, and then you make a wish and if you blow them all out with one breath, it comes true."

"And what are you planning to wish for?" Merlin asked, scooting closer toward her.
thatsamilkshake: (fairywee)

[personal profile] thatsamilkshake 2009-04-01 03:14 am (UTC)(link)
The ability to act remotely cool in the presence of a cute boy. Or at least not say bibble out loud. Oh God, did she say that out loud?

"...Did I say that out loud?"

[identity profile] bigdamndestiny.livejournal.com 2009-04-01 03:15 am (UTC)(link)
Merlin looked around for a moment. "Say what?"
thatsamilkshake: (smiley)

[personal profile] thatsamilkshake 2009-04-01 03:24 am (UTC)(link)
"Uuuuh nothing! Good. You're not supposed to tell, or it doesn't come true!" Whew. And it wasn't even a lie!

[identity profile] bigdamndestiny.livejournal.com 2009-04-01 03:26 am (UTC)(link)
Shooting her a look of disbelief, Merlin just went with it. "So, pizza and candles. Anything else for a birthday?"

[personal profile] thatsamilkshake 2009-04-01 03:32 am (UTC)(link)
"Well, it's usually cake," Francine clarified, instead of saying presents because she was way too polite to say that. "Not pizza. But candles in pizza would be funny."

[identity profile] bigdamndestiny.livejournal.com 2009-04-01 03:34 am (UTC)(link)
Well, that he knew. "We can start a new tradition!"

"As long as that doesn't include eating the wax. Because not really nutritious. Probably not poisonous, but eww."

"I'll make sure they're in holders," Merlin assured her.
