[audio] @vegemight; bad life choice brigade rides again [open]

[magnitudes]

Okay, okay. Okay.

( There’s a sound in the background, probably recognisable to most as a microwave. There’s another sound that might be recognisable to some by now: Sarissa being a little drunk. )

So, tragedy: wet clothes. Disaster, right? I was thinking, I can’t put ‘em in a dryer, ‘cause they’ll shrink. And I can’t put ‘em on a line out in the sun, because this place is a big fuck you to that whole concept, I bet, even in summer.

Problem solved, though. I’m on it.

( She is not, in fact, on it. In fact, though it cannot be seen by the listener or Sarissa, her clothes are starting to smoke, rather than steam. ) Anyways, I was telling Molly about how handy microwaves are, and then I thought: hey. Extra problem solving.

(Off-screen, Molly says:) Uh, Sarissa? Is there supposed to be this much smoke?

Ain’t smoke, mate. It’s steam. ( She’ll be right. There’s a long pause, and then— ) oh motherfuck!

Please tell me you didn't actually do what it sounds like you did.

( does he need to go help put out a fire? )

[Molly fans away some of the smoke as he follows Sarissa to the source of the problem, looking a little smug that he was right.]

I wouldn't say I'm an expert, but are they supposed to be on fire, too?

[ So, he wanted to stick to text with the network, mostly, but if his read of the situation is right, he is pretty sure text probably wouldn't be the most conducive medium here. ]

Hi. Can you spell your name backward? Just wondering. [ Really. Not trying to be a busybody. Just curious. ]

Is everything okay?

[ The voice should be familiar. It's the slightly baffled voice of someone who's seen her shoes catch on fire. ]

Have you always been in the habit of burning your clothes, or are you newly in the process of forming the habit since your arrival?

You know you can still... hang them to dry right?

[She never ceases to amazing him.... Although "amaze" might be a stretch.

No, he's just listening shaking his head. How much of an idiot was she really?]

Wow. Using a microwave to dry clothing.... Sounds like a fool proof plan.

[This seems to be a pattern.]

Imagine a summer time in a place with no sunshine.

That's the real crime here. o(TヘTo)

[She could rag on her about the microwave thing, but it looks like everyone else is already doing it.]

You put a pair of jeans in a microwave?

Like, with a zipper and all that metal??
