[second_first]

[When Rei turns the feed on, the device is a little ways away from her, so the first thing that can be seen is her straightening and withdrawing her hand.

It is very quickly apparent that she's in the kitchen, probably baking, if the ingredients around her are any indication. She's a little messy and her expression is one of vague determination. She stares at the recipe book in front of her as though uncertain about the directions she's being given.

Why is she recording this? Well, it's either a silent invitation to come and eat the cake she's making, should she succeed in finishing it, or it's an equally silent solicitation for help, since she's never baked before in her life.]

[George blinks.]

...Really?

[Not that she's judging a ton but, you know. Terezi and Rei seem like an...odd match.

Also Terezi threatened to kill her.]

[second-first.livejournal.com]

It was an event.

[akapeanut.livejournal.com]

I know...but she's kind of boisterous normally. What do you guys even do together?

[second-first.livejournal.com]

We talk. And play.

[akapeanut.livejournal.com]

...Huh.

[She finally gets to the step for adding food coloring to her bowl. She picks green.]

Just never would've pictured you two getting along.

[She's not jealous. Nope.]

[second-first.livejournal.com]

Did you picture you and me getting along?

[akapeanut.livejournal.com]

[Stir stir.]

Yeah. I guess.

[second-first.livejournal.com]

[Rei makes her new batter blueeee. She's quiet for awhile while she does this.]

Me too.

[akapeanut.livejournal.com]

[Quiet quiet quiet. Stir stir stir. This is probably overstirred by now but whatever.]

Terezi's never...mean or anything? To you?

[second-first.livejournal.com]

No.

[akapeanut.livejournal.com]

Hm.

[Theeeen this might be George's fault somehow. Awesome.]

I think the green batter is ready.

[second-first.livejournal.com]

[It's also possible that Rei has a skewed idea of what nice and mean are.]

Okay.

[...]

Is Terezi mean to you?

[akapeanut.livejournal.com]

[She shrugs, sliding the finished bowl of batter off to one side.]

She threatened to kill me once and I don't know what I did to piss her off.

[second-first.livejournal.com]

[Rei stops what she's doing and looks at her.] When?

[akapeanut.livejournal.com]

Uh. When I lost my frog.

[Serious Rei is kind of scary. Not that she looks that much different, but still.]

[second-first.livejournal.com]

Was she kidding? [That is something Terezi would do.]

[akapeanut.livejournal.com]

I have no idea.

[Trufax.]

[second-first.livejournal.com]

[mmmm. Rei is displeased. She stirs stuff some more.]

[akapeanut.livejournal.com]

[...Shit, George feels kinda bad. This is why she doesn't make friends, shit just gets complicated for no reason.]

Don't be mad at her or anything. She was probably kidding or whatever.

[Not as if she can die anyway, really.]

[second-first.livejournal.com]

Okay.

[She's not so much mad at Terezi as just unhappy that things are weird. Having multiple friends is complicated.]

[akapeanut.livejournal.com]

[George works on another bowl of batter, waiting to see if Rei will say anything else.]

[second-first.livejournal.com]

[Not so much. Must finish cake. And if she says George helped, maybe Terezi will like George too.]
