[RL with Roxy - the price of science windows]

[thatsmyyogurt]

[Welcome to Michael's loft, Roxy! Things you might notice about it:

It's big! ...this is because for the most part it's one big room, with a lofted area that seems to be an office space and a kitchen area marked off by a counter. One of your fancy rehabbed lofts, this is not.

Michael is apparently not big on furniture, judging by the lack of things like, say, a bedframe for that mattress (hey, the sheets are clean, that's practically luxury).

It's hot. That would be because it's unairconditioned. In Miami.

There are other things- for example, if you open the fridge you'll find cups of blueberry yogurt, bottles of beer, and a lonely green bell pepper. But that would require you to get to the fridge before Michael comes in off the balcony, which is unlikely. Though you can try.]

Yyyyeah it's complicated. They're a kind of alien, I'm pretty sure, except most of them spent their whole lives on Earth so they're like, second-gen aliens? They're all black and white and have hard shells and kinda round heads, so they look a little like chess pieces.

[thatsmyyogurt]

So...did aliens aliens cause the...fishy stuff?

[what is his life that he is asking this]

[zuipperpips]

Yeah. Not the chess aliens, they're good guys mostly, they just got dragged into it. We're talkin about Her Imperious Conde-fuckin-cension. Landed on Earth in the beginning of the 20th century, started an international baking corporation, fucked everyone's shit up starting from the early 21st century.

[Okay, there's a certain kind of comic-book logic to that (literally for all he knows, there are people who are also comics characters on the community after all), but-]

...A baking corporation?

[seriously?]

[zuipperpips]

Think about it! Everyone needs food, right? Lets her get her nasty tentacles all up into everyone's bodies. Here... [ she hops off the counter to dig around in the cupboards. And then a second cupboard. And then takes a second look in the fridge. And then pokes her head into the cupboard under the sink. ] Holy shit, I've found the world's first yogurtarian.

[thatsmyyogurt]

[Yes you have.

But Michael gives a bit of a "seriously?" look for a moment before speaking.] I try not to buy things unless I know I'm going to use them soon.

So what did the F.D.A. have to say about this alien? [Not to mention the corporate spies from other baking companies.]
