Duck-Feels, Woo-oo! (Closed)

[woo_oo]

Who: Webby, Dewey & Lena
What: Dewey and Lena separately check in on Webby after a genie made her a jerk.
Where: Makerion Keep, a.k.a the Ka dorms.
When: Days after Genie Jerk.
Warnings: N/A.

On the plus side, Webby had at least been keeping up with her studies - but it was really an effort to avoid thinking about 'other things', like how that wish had made her insult her friends. While It was easy to blame the genie and her ill-worded wish, at the heart of it she still it was her fault. She'd said those nasty things, and how could she make up for it? They were so wonderful to her, they deserved the best, more than just a lame "I'm sorry."

With a sigh, she closed her book and hugged her knees tight.

Webby rolled her eyes up, trying to think... ding!

"Oh! It was a box that went BOOM!" She emphasized with jazz hands - although doing so now allowed the door to swing wide upon. "I... guess that genie was the type who would twist everyone's wishes to the worst interpretation."

"It sure looks that way. But that's why you don't need to apologize. It's not your fault he was a big dumb jerk. Here, take your ice cream? I brought cheeseburgers too."

He held out her sundae, piled high with sprinkles and candied fruit and whipped cream that was starting to go a little droopy from waiting to be eaten. But he had a trick up his sleeve for that...he hoped.

[woo_oo]

"Aw, Dewey! You didn't have to do that!" But if her taking the sundae out of his hands was any indication, she wasn't going to deny it.

"Big hugs once our hands are empty, okay?"

[couldabeenturbo]

"Psh, duh." He'll follow her wherever he leads him so they can put it all down, then wraps his arms around her in a big, squishy hug. "Besides. I wanted to have dinner with my best friend, and I figured you could use some cheering up."

[woo_oo]

Big squishy hugs are the best! And she'll be more than happy to give one right back.

"Thanks, Dewey... I'm really glad you came. Not just to my room, but to this weird world."

[couldabeenturbo]

"Me, too. I'm even more glad that we're all here together so no one misses out." He starts to unpack their burgers, kicking out a seat with one foot so she can sit down first. "I really wasn't sure about having adults in charge who weren't family, but some of them are turning out to be pretty neat. And I met a guy who's going to teach me how to be a knight!"

[woo_oo]

"Hendrik?" When it comes to knights, that's who comes to mind. "Oh, he's great! He's really smart and brave, we've sparred together, and he taught me how to dance fancy for balls!"

What are manners? She's just going to dig into her burger, nomnomnomnom.

[couldabeenturbo]

"That's him! He taught me how to spar, too, and told me a story about this guy who was a strategist on a fleet of ships."

He, too, sets to devouring his burger, careful not to lose any condiments or pickles out the sides.

"Have you met Orisa? She's a robot with four legs."

[woo_oo]

"Orsia's the best!" Hurray, all her friends were friends with her friends!

"A robot learning magic... it's like, the best of both worlds!"
