...Welcome back. [Hey, Oswald.]

[agoodname]

Thank you. [he closes the door behind him--just as ghost parents are like...outta here.]

[enigmaster]

How was your day?

[agoodname]

Fine. And yours? [he's...rounding the corner, staring for a brief second at that scarf, before turning to go into the kitchen.]

[enigmaster]

It was fine.

[Edward's also heading into the kitchen. You know, to help out or whatever he can do.]

[agoodname]

I'm glad to hear that. [just....starts getting ingredients out] Is goulash alright?

[enigmaster]

Sure.

I can get the plates and glasses.

[agoodname]

Thank you. [goulash, fortunately, is rather straightforward. basically throw everything in a pot and let it cook]

1/2

[enigmaster]

[Yep, Edward starts setting out the glasses. And then the plates.

...And then,



he wakes up.]

2/2

[enigmaster]

[There's a shattering sound, then, as a plate slips out of his hand and hits the floor.]

[agoodname]

--Edward? [That gets Oswald's attention--and he's leaving the goulash to move to the dining room] Edward, are you alright?

[enigmaster]

I... I don't, ah... [And Edward stares down at the shattered plate, his eyes wide. What just...] When did I...

[agoodname]

Edward? [yeah nope he's coming straight over to him, now, noticing the plate] Ah--the plate--are you alright?

[enigmaster]

I-- [And it hits him, suddenly, what he's looking at. And he takes a quick step back.] Oh, I... Oh, no, I-I'm sorry, I didn't mean to break it, I don't... I don't know what just happened, I'm sorry... [So. That's a no.]

[agoodname]

[....what is happening] It's fine, Edward, it's...it's just a plate. It's fine.

[enigmaster]

I'm sorry, I really don't... know what happened... I... [And that's the terrifying thing. He. Doesn't know.]

[agoodname]

Edward? Edward--it's alright, Edward--[and he reaches out, cautiously, touching his hand gently]--just take some deep breaths. [what is even happening right now]

[enigmaster]

Yeah. Yeah, okay, I... I'll... [Deep breaths. Okay. Calm down, Edward, it's fine.] Sorry, I think I... need a second, maybe... [He's. Taking a seat, real quick. He's not okay.]

[agoodname]

Of course. Take your time. Just...breathe.

[enigmaster]

Y-yeah... [He's taking a moment. And after breathing for a bit, he carefully looks up at Oswald and...] I... um... I'm sorry. For... this morning...

[agoodname]

[Oswald just...blinks at that, once] ....what for?

[enigmaster]

For... For what I said. Right before I left...

[agoodname]

[....] I...didn't think you said anything untoward. If you didn't want to talk about something, that's your right.

[enigmaster]

No, but... But I don't know why I said that. I didn't want to say that...

[agoodname]

[Oswald presses his lips together]

....did something happen? Yesterday?
