Not Quite Usual

[clockworkboytoy.livejournal.com]

[This young Replica is standing wet and naked in the laundry room, kicking at one of the washing machines. It was trying to do laundry, but has failed against the might of the washing machine, which is rumbling ominously.]

Give me back my clothes, you stupid thing!

*looks up at you obediently*

[seasides]

You've still got a lot to learn about human nature.

[smiles gently at him.]

I don't think you're ugly at all, but you're like a sibling to me. And usually, people don't look at their siblings when they're naked.

[clockworkboytoy.livejournal.com]

Oh...

*it thinks about this then smiles at you, giving you a shy hug*

[seasides]

[returns the hug even if it's getting him wet, making sure it's a nice, proper one.]

[clockworkboytoy.livejournal.com]

*that's good because it still is somewhat awkward about these things*

... are you gonna help me get my clothes back now?

[seasides]

[hair ruffles~!]

Of course.

[makes his way to the machine, peeking behind it to see if there's a power cord.]

[clockworkboytoy.livejournal.com]

Kai! Don't!

*the machine rumbles LOUDER when you approach, then starts to shake, rattling across the floor*

[seasides]

[sdlfssdfjh backs up what the hell.]

First that stupid sandwich, now this? When did it start doing this?

[clockworkboytoy.livejournal.com]

Uhm. When I tried to get my clothes out of the machine the first time.

*the machine rumbles back to its place once you back off, but it is watching you oyes*

[seasides]

...weird.

[looks back to the washer.]

...don't suppose you'd give them back if we asked nicely, huh?

[clockworkboytoy.livejournal.com]

I don't know. When it didn't give me my clothes, I kicked it, then it got me wet.

[seasides]

...maybe you should apologize for kicking it.

[clockworkboytoy.livejournal.com]

*frowns*

I don't want to. It took my clothes first.

[seasides]

I wonder if it understands us.

[back to staring at it.]

[clockworkboytoy.livejournal.com]

All I know is that it has good aim.

*the washing machine stares back, as much as it can since it doesn't have eyes*

[seasides]

[heads closer to it, though he still gives it some space.]

Look, uh. Washing machine. Think we could get those clothes back? He does kind of need them. And we'll leave you be afterward.

[normally would feel silly talking to an appliance, but he's been inside talking refrigerators before, so.]

[clockworkboytoy.livejournal.com]

*the machine rumbles, spitting out some water at you, and bubbles*

[seasides]

[well he's wet anyways :| steps to the side.]

Hey, no need to be like that! I mean, unless you want trouble...

[clockworkboytoy.livejournal.com]

*the machine goes into the spin cycle, just rumbling a bit where it is but not 'attacking' again*

[seasides]

Seriously though, think we could get those clothes back? I mean, you wouldn't like it if someone stole your... lid or something, and wouldn't give it back, right?

[he can add reasoning with a washing machine to his wtf list.]

*the machine rumbles then here comes a pair of boxer shorts flying through the air and aimed at your face*

KAI! DUCK!

[seasides]

[sldfha DUCKS.]

[clockworkboytoy.livejournal.com]

*the wet boxer shorts smack against the wall; now here comes a shirt!*

[seasides]

[stays down. at least the clothing is coming out!]

[clockworkboytoy.livejournal.com]

*is ducking too, when a pair of socks come at his head*

Kai! You made it angry!
