Funday Sundaes!

[goofytastic]

Now, Goofy liked to figure that he was good with electronics. He tended to, somehow, fix anything that broken in his home after all! Or he called for help. Either way, he loved to tinker if he could. But this replicator thing... this was definitely something new! And strange. Very, very strange.

Where was Max when you needed him? Or even, Sylvia! She would figure this out no problem. He missed the both of them, but he had to stay strong. He would see them again. He knew he would. So, for now, food. After a moment of scratching his chin, humming as he looked at the machine quite sternly, a lightbulb went off and he had an idea!

Goofy pressed all the buttons, because why not? It was the best way to figure anything out, he always thought.

It was about five minutes later that Goofy had a problem.

"...uh-oh."

That was a lot of hot fudge sundaes! He couldn't eat them all. Again, Goofy scratched his chin and hummed in thought. Lightbulb!!

Ten Forward would find a table full of hot fudge sundaes all neatly placed on about two tables pulled together. There was a sign, clearly written in marker, that said "HOT FUDGE SUNDAES. 25 cents FREE!"

Goofy realized shortly after writing the sign that no one would have a quarter handy. They were in a spaceship with aliens, after all! Besides, ice cream was always good, no use in charging them. He said behind the two tables, eating one of them already. "A-hyuk! Just as tasty as back home, oh boy!"

...Was this guy a talking dog? How interesting! She'd never seen anything like that on any world she'd been on before! And he appeared to be having quite a bit of trouble with the replicators. She came up to the assortment of hot fudge sundaes and looked them over. Ahim was in the mood for some ice cream, she decided. She picked up one of the sundaes and addressed the dog that had create them. "Are you still getting used to the technology here, sir?"

[goofytastic]

Goofy blinked up at her and swallowed his ice cream to address her. He gave her a sheepish look. "Well, it's just so diff'rent than back home, y'know?"

This girl was awful polite! He grinned at her and handed her a spoon. "Here ya go, little lady. I'm Goofy."

[princess_flintlock]

She nodded. "It's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Goofy," Ahim replied with a curtsy. She happily accepted the spoon. "My name is Ahim de Famille. This is all quite something to get used to, isn't it? I have traveled a lot through space, but I've never seen anything like this before."

[goofytastic]

Oh! A curtsy. Goofy stood to give her a bow. "A pleasure to make yer acquaintance."

He chuckled and nodded. "It is! I've never seen stuff like this before. Why, I don't believe we've been to space yet ourselves. But I'm keeping my eyes open to tell Max and Sylvia all about it."

[princess_flintlock]

She smiled at the bow. She couldn't help but be so polite, even if she was a pirate. "Oh? And who are they?" She sat nearby to enjoy her sundae and a little conversation. This guy seemed quite nice, really.

[goofytastic]

"My son is Max and my girlfriend is Sylvia," He answered, taking a seat next to her. He was obviously still quite smitten over Sylvia, even if they had gone out for more than a few months now. "Now, I don't believe I've seen anythin' like you, but I think you would be about Maxie's age! He's in college right now."

And obviously quite proud of his son.

[princess_flintlock]

She smiled when she saw how fond he was of the people he cared about. She couldn't help but think wistfully of her own kind of "family" back on the Gokai Galleon. She pushed through, because it wouldn't do to make people worry about her too much. They had their own cares.

"Ah, well, I'm from a world that doesn't even show up in the Enterprise database. College, that's... a secondary school for commoners, right?" She'd enjoyed nothing but the best in private tutors until everything had gone terribly wrong. And then her education became more focused on reclaiming her world and pulling her weight with the Gokaigers.

[kaylinneya]

Two words that always went together for Kaylin, two words that always mixed hope and suspicion. Free. Food. Didn't matter that all the food here was free... free food.

She walked over, eying the food with a mix of suspicion and longing. There was only suspicion in the gaze she cast over Goofy.

He looked... almost like a creature of the Shadows, deformed, dark, misshapen, but... he did not yet act like one, so she stayed near, watching, wary, trying to ignore how her stomach grumbled at her for not eating the food that was at hand.

[goofytastic]

Goofy saw her and couldn't help but give her a smile and a little wave. But she didn't move and... was that a stomach rumble? Why, the poor girl must be hungry! And shy to boot. Well, Goofy stands right up and gets a sundae and a spoon, walking over to the lady and holding it out. "Here ya go, miss. Nothin' like a fudge sundae to lift yer spirits!"

I am so sorry about her.....

[kaylinneya]

Shy she was not. Blunt however, blunt she was.

There were reasons the Hawks never let her fly near nobility and the moneyed if they could avoid it, and why they were all - herself included - sure the Emperor would eat her if she went to court without lessons.

"What the ****s are you?" she asked, resting her hands lightly on the pommels of her daggers.

PFFT dun worry~

[goofytastic]

Goofy blinked at her owlishly. He wasn't entirely sure what word she just used, but it was certainly not a good one by her tone! "Well now, I'm Goofy! You should really watch yer language, y'know. Lotsa impressionable young'uns around here."

He still held out the ice cream for her. "It's gonna melt y'know."

[kaylinneya]

"Young'uns..." she repeated slowly, brows raising. "Goofy is your race, your name, or a characterization?" She asked a bit sharply. Her stomach growled loudly again.

[goofytastic]

"It's m'name, miss," He answered. He chuckled at her stomach growling. "Aw, come now. It's jus' some ice cream. Instead of askin' questions, you should get a bite ta eat! The nice lady over at the bar may have somethin' if ya don't like sundaes."

[kaylinneya]

"I ask questions for a living. It's what I do. And I asked what you were, not who you were," she pointed out.

They never say what he is in the movies/show either... >.>

[goofytastic]

"Uh," Well, that dumbfounded Goofy. He was just a regular guy, why was she asking what he was? "I'm not what, uh, you are. I s'pose?"

She was obviously something else.

I was always told he was a dog, but..... yeaaaaaaah. According to tsumtsum, Pete is a cat... so..x.x

[kaylinneya]

"No. Really?" she asked, her brows all the way up. "Couldn't have guessed that one," she said dryly. "Try something a bit more specific."

Exactly and they never *say* it...orz...

[goofytastic]

"Now see here, little lady," He set the treat down to address her in a voice akin to a father talking to his son. Which made sense as he has a son. "Bein' rude is quite uncalled for jus' because there's nothin' in that stomach of yours."

He even has his hands on his hips. "And it's also rude t'ask people what they are. If you don' want what is bein' offer, you say 'no thank you'. Simple manners go a long way t'makin' friends."

[kaylinneya]

"When your job is to keep people safe, and someone shows up looking like creatures that have tried to destroy multiple worlds, rudeness and tact are not concerns. I'd rather keep people safe then worry about making friends."

She crossed her arms.

[goofytastic]

Goofy raised an eyebrow. "And exactly how do I look like somethin' that destroys worlds? That sounds an awful like one of Maxie's comics..."

It really did. All superheroes fighting aliens on Jupiter or something. Honestly! He looked like something that would destroy something? Goofy didn't know whether to feel dumbfounded or insulted. He was kind of a mixture of both. Why, he wouldn't hurt a fly!

[kaylinneya]

"Because where I come from, creatures that look like worse versions of you have tried to destroy my world, and were known to the Norinarr as well. So much so that their whole culture evolved to the focus of protecting their worlds from the shadows.

"I don't know what a Maxie is, or a comic, but I know that I agreed to protect this ship and it's people while I'm here."

[goofytastic]

"Max is my son," He answered. "He's doin' good things in college. I'm so proud of him."

He even had a proud smile on this face. It certainly lightened his mood when talking about destroying worlds and such. "Comics are kinda like picture book. They tell a story. Most o' the time with super heroes and stuff. Now, if yer done with these accusations, I suggest ya get somethin' to eat. It might help yer mood."

[kaylinneya]

She eyed him carefully, considering that. She wasn't too sure what college was -sounded like a mage thing - but... she understood a parent being proud of a child. Never experienced it herself, but she understood it.

And books... she hated them, but... she understood them too. Books. Being a parent. Being proud of your kid.

She closed her eyes, pain on her face as she remembered Marai. Remembered her last moments. How she had escaped the shadows and come back to herself for her son. Their son. Roshan. Who Kaylin had given to Marin, given to the best home she knew of for a Leontine cub who could not live with Marcus.

Marin who would protect Roshan and love him and raise him as Kaylin couldn't, as Marai would have if she hadn't died to protect him. To protect Kaylin so she could protect him.

"Give me the **** ice cream," she mumbled, taking one, not aware of the pain in her face or the tears threatening in her eyes.

It takes no psychic power to read Kaylin's mind, it never has, her expressions are open and unhidden, there for anyone to read.

[makesbettermouth]

Cue Amy trying not to stare.

That's Goofy.

Goofy is sitting in the middle of Ten Forward, selling hot fudge sundaes.

She tries not to look too excited but she's so excited as she approaches. "Those look so good! Do you mind if I take one?"

[goofytastic]

"A-hyuk! O'course not, little lady. Take as many as ya like," He grinned, handing her a spoon as well. "The replicator-thingy made too many and I can't eat 'em all meself. And everyone likes a sundae!"

Goofy is well unaware of his popularity in some worlds for obvious reasons.

[makesbettermouth]

And Amy's very good about not enlightening him - though her expression is still perhaps a bit obviously on the happy side. She picks one and takes the spoon from him. "And I'm definitely a somebody. Would you mind some company?" she asks.

Because she's not going to turn down the opportunity to eat with him.

[agathaheterodyne]

Agatha was heading into the lounge, and stopped dead, seeing him. She blinked. What... an interesting construct. She'd never seen one quite like him. She wondered at the level of intelligence.

Intrigued, she headed closer, eying the sundaes to have an excuse to get closer. She was raised by constructs, she understood enough to know he probably didn't want her poking around his seams. Still, she would just about kill to learn if he needed to be constantly energized or if he was powered at creation and then could eat and drink, like Krosp.

Over all, it was just... fascinating.

"Free ice cream?" she asked when she got closer. "Isn't all of the food here free?"

[goofytastic]

Goofy laughed and nodded. "They are! This was just somethin' I used ta do as a kid and I guess the habit never went away. I certainly can't eat all this ice cream, though! So may as well give it away as fast as possible."

[agathaheterodyne]

"Well, thank you." she took one. "What was your childhood like?" That would be a good way to find out more about how he was constructed.

[goofytastic]

Goofy laughed and shook his head. "Oh, that was a long time ago. I don' wanna bore ya. A-hyuk! It was just like any other childhood. Goin' fishin' with my pa and grandpappy. Hangin' out with friends. The usual!"

[agathaheterodyne]

"I wouldn't be bored," she assured him. "I'd love to know."

She took a spoonful. "This is very good, thank you."

[goofytastic]

"Aw, it was nothin'! That machine made all o'these," Goofy grinned, taking another spoonful. He wasn't sure where to start about his childhood, but he started nonetheless. He had always been close to his dad and grandfather, so most of his stories involved them. Lots of roadtrips.

[agathaheterodyne]

She pulled up a chair, eating the ice cream as she listened. To all accounts... she could almost believe he had been born....

Which meant that one or more of his parents, no, he mentioned grandparents.... had someone build a whole race? Or was he just like so many others here, from another world? A world where everyone looked like that?

How much she look to him? A fascinating question.... She also wondered if he would find a Jaeger more or less scary looking than he found her. What of a clank? What of the Lakya? She never had been much for sociology, but the scientist in her wanted to experiment....

[stark_spangled]

Steve is about to lose his mind.

To be honest, it's a miracle that hasn't happened already, but more in the traditional sense of the phrase. He's been taken from Earth, dropped on a spaceship, harried by an egomaniacal alien with a bad sense of humor and a raging God complex, seen visions from his past, gained friends, lost friends, lost himself ... but nothing he's experienced in the last year could have prepared him for one of Walt Disney's most beloved characters brought to life. And in technicolor.

He drops into a seat a few paces off, a pad of paper clutched in one hand, jaw slackened and eyes blinking. He's dreaming. (Right?) There's no way Q could have done this. Sure, the lines are a little different than Steve remembers, the colors brighter, but he's been in the 21st century long enough to know Goofy when he sees him.

"What's the catch?" he asks, once he's gathered his wits and managed to come closer to the tables laden in sundaes. You'll have to excuse him if he stares.

(I wonder if this is what Coulson feels like?)

[goofytastic]

"Hm?" Goofy looked up with a spoonful of ice cream in his mouth. He swallowed and pulled the spoon out, giving Steve a grin. "No catch at all, son! Jus' kinda broke the replicator thingy and it made too many. I can't eat all this by m'self and everyone loves a sundae, right?"

He even handed one to Steve. "Here ya go!"

[stark_spangled]

Oh my god, Goofy just called him son. A word whisker they appear to have in common. Steve glances at the floor, a soft smile blooming across his face, and takes the sundae from Goofy once he looks back up.

"Haven't met anyone who doesn't yet," he agrees, inexplicably finding that his grin grows the longer he looks at the ... well, the dog. "Thanks. It's just the way I like it."

He sets his sketchpad down on the corner of a table, and holds out his hand. "Steve Rogers."

[goofytastic]

Goofy smiled and handed him a spoon as well. "Me neither! They always seem to be the best and easiest snack t'make."

He shook Steve's hand. "Nice to meet'cha Mr. Rogers. I'm Goofy Goof."

Just because he called Steve son doesn't mean he doesn't know Steve is an adult, after all. He noticed the sketchpad and reached for it. Then, he stopped. "Uh, do ya mind?"
