04/26/24 – Earth Stuff

|

Audri, holding a buddha bowl salad, chocolate cake, and a kombucha; and Val, licking her fingers, stood in front of the food synth. Audri said, "despite being rude, thank you for the food." Val said, "yeah, thanks, food-making thing." The food synth said, "I'm a food synth, although it's a bit of a misnomer as I can also make non-food items." Val got excited at this and said, "oh. Oh! Can you make me a pair of roller skates with retractable wheels? Balanced however you think is best for my body. Just make sure there's action in the trucks." The food synth said, "more earth stuff? What made you two decide to fetishize earth, anyway?" Wide eyed, Audri said, "lifelong interest?" And Val said, "Earth is sexy?" As Val put on her roller skates, Audri had an idea. She said "and i'd like six handbells with a bandolier for them please. In the order of c, d, e, f, g, a." Val asked, "you play handbells?" Smiling, Audri said, "for several years now. Campanology's become my thing." Unsure about this, Val said, "how... interesting." Audri added, "actually, I should say that it is one of my things. But pottery equipment seemed impractical to carry while we're on the run."
