Who: Gilbert Nightray & open!
When: All day on the 7th
Where: Funtom Bakery
Summary: Tomorrow is Thanksgiving, and a neutral business is doing their part to make sure that people enjoy the most important part of the holiday: THE PIES. Come get a free pie.
Warnings: Warning for cavities. No really, brush your teeth after eating, kids.
This is Gilbert's third time witnessing this modern holiday in Siren's Port. It's a different sort of tradition than his own world's celebration of welcoming in the harvest with a large feast, but then, there's nothing in this world that mirrors his own when it comes to holiday and tradition. Still, he and Funtom are doing their part to promote charity and goodwill by offering a free pumpkin pie ('One per customer, please!' proclaims a sign on the counter with a childish sketch of a happy black rabbit sitting in a teacup.) to complete your meal tomorrow evening!
Come in and get your free pie, sit down and enjoy tea and pastries, or just come in to bother the baker as he moves from the kitchen to the front counter to help pass them out.

[Tim blankfaces back. Blankfaces intensely.]
no subject
[He's not falling for that blankface. He knows that lurking behind it is an annoying baseball-sized jerk wanting to bite his face off or something.]
no subject
No! I promise he doesn't feel that way, you shouldn't worry...!
[Allen pats Tim's squishy head, in a friendly and reassuring manner. Look at this adorable thing, what sort of problem could you possibly have with him...?
Tim just keeps staring. He doesn't know why Gil dislikes him, but he has clearly decided to dislike Gil right back. On principle!]
no subject
The last time he was here he ruined a cake. He knocked it right onto the ground! And then he ate it!
[And as you can see, Gil still hasn't gotten over it.]
no subject
A WHOLE CAKE??]
What!? I'm sorry—! Why would he do that? That doesn't sound like...
[Allen looks to Tim, as if he might have the answers, but Tim's broken into a grin now and... Allen just... covers Tim's face with a hand...]
He doesn't remember it.
omg I'm laughing too hard to write a reply
He might not remember, but he looks like he wouldn't mind doing it again...!
gilbert is the best
He won't! I-I'll make certain of it!
[Hide your cakes, hide your pies, Gilbert.]
*worst
[DOES HE EVEN HAVE EARS.]
no subject
[TIM IS A PERFECT ANGEL don't be ridiculous, Gilbert.]
no subject
But he also doesn't want to offend his friend by hating his flying cantaloupe, so he sits back in his chair and sighs.]
If you say so...
no subject
I'm very sorry about your cake.
no subject
[He's already apologized once before! But he leaves that part out because it's probably still creepy to be told things that you did that you don't remember.]
He did sort of try to fix it afterwards. Sort of.
no subject
[It's kind of odd, that he wasn't...!
It is a little creepy to even think about these things, though, yes.
He also gives Gil an odd sort of look at that. Even he can't imagine how Tim would attempt to salvage a. cake.]
Fix it....?
no subject
[He gestures with one hand, miming picking something up and setting it on top of something much taller.]
- took the pieces that were still left on the ground that he hadn't eaten and tried to stack them back up on top.
no subject
[Er.]
Helpful?
Sort of...
[Allen quickly glances at his golem, who remains carefully blankfaced.]
You shouldn't ruin things in the first place, you know.
no subject
[It was a thing of beauty, Allen. But maybe that was Tim's reasoning all along.
He just wanted to destroy something beautiful.
In the inner theater of Gilbert's mind.]

This fellow with the seaweed hair is so overdramatic. And all over a cake from who-knows-how-long ago.
But surely there was a reason Tim went out of his way to sample one of his desserts in the past... So he shall endeavor consume one of these fancy cakes again in the future. For research. (Tim was created by science, so he's qualified for this task.)
Perhaps, while his boy is sleeping......]

no subject
[He holds up his hands in apology.]
Sorry, I got a little carried away talking about it now! I just hadn't thought about it in a while...
[BITTERNESS BUILDS UP.]
no subject
[RELIEF... that he does not owe Gil money.
And now that that's cleared up, he quickly tries to think of a topic change.
new topic --------> cake...]
So... is baking a natural talent of yours?
no subject
I wouldn't call it a natural talent...more of a survival skill?
no subject
no subject
[And with so many people coming and going every day, it's a necessary asset.]
