【 Hello, dearest guests. We hope you have been enjoying your time in the Golden Peacock and utilizing our many amenities.
Reception would like all guests to be aware that some new arrivals have been misplaced. Due to the nature of the resort, new arrivals may have been misplaced in unexpected locations. This includes your personal suites. We are very sorry for this inconvenience.
Please do not be alarmed if you come across a misplaced new arrival. We kindly request that any guests that find a misplaced new arrival escort them to the main hub, where we have arranged a central meetup where all new arrivals can claim their complimentary robes and welcome baskets.
All guests are invited to come mingle at the main hub and meet new arrivals. As always, we hope you have a pleasant day! 】
DEALER'S CHOICE
STEVE, WHERE DID YOU PUT THE NEW ARRIVALS?
The Golden Peacock has swept away the hues of winter and welcomed vibrant pops of color for a change of pace. Gone are the snow whites and cool golds. Vases of bright florals have been staged all throughout the general hubs and hallways. Statues have been cheekily decorated with bright clothes, such as charming hats and billowing dresses with cheerful prints. This peacock has cleaned up nicely, its brilliant feathers shaking with a warm palette to please the senses.
Staff are bustling during the decor turnover. While some diligent employees are steadfastly decorating the hallways with sprawling vines and spectacular blooms, others are darting back and forth in search of something. Or rather — someone. Several someones. Front reception is in an outright panic while flying over the phones and furiously slamming their hands on keyboards.
"Steve, I know you're new, but you can't just press any button that pops up on the computer screen! The new arrivals are supposed to go into temporary suites." Deborah, the head receptionist, sighs, "Now who knows where they are. I hope they're okay... I'm sure they're quite confused, wherever they wound up. Steve, stop crying. The house won't fire you for this. Probably. How's your resume looking?"
In the end, Steve didn't get fired. But he did get reassigned to trash duty.
FLORAL RIOT
A STRIKE OF COLOR
【 🌸🌸🌸 Come experience new floral delights! Prepare to be ravished by a symphony of color and aroma. Romance, love, and pleasure all await within corridors of beauty. 🌸 🌸 🌸 】
Days before the grand unveiling, the gardeners of the Cloud Dwelling Garden distribute flyers announcing that their special floral exhibition is now ready for guests to enjoy. Long-standing guests vibrate in anticipation, eagerly stomping around the gardens until the ribbon is cut and the newest resort amenity has been revealed. The gardeners make a point to approach new guests and encourage them to join in on the fun, explaining that the house likes to create a new floral experience for guests every few years or so.
Exhibition opening is set for mid-month. On the 15th precisely, the gardeners line up in front of the white sheet hiding the project, each taking a turn to bow and say a few short words about how grand and generous the house is for giving them such rewarding jobs.
The curtains fall away to a wall of shockingly bright florals. Guests ooh and aahh at not only the array of shades but at the luxurious meld of so many different kinds of flowers. Wisteria and roses, lilies and carnations. Lilacs, peonies, daisies, daffodils, sunflowers. More and more and more and more. The staff explain that this flower maze is perhaps their most intricate piece of work yet and that there is grand surprise waiting at the heart. Additionally, as part of the festivities, several prizes have been hidden around the maze at dead-ends. Long-standing guests clap and cheer before charging inside.
The flower maze will only last as long as the most fleeting flowers do. The flower maze will remain open to the public for several weeks, after which it will close for further remodeling.
"We'll be open again with another complex arrangement," one of the gardeners explains cheerfully. "A maze isn't fun once you've learned the layout. We'll open again after creating a whole new design for guests to enjoy. Maybe even some new flowers, too. A lot of the ones on the lawn got funky after guests came all over them..."

SMOKY NECTAR
DRIBBLE OF SWEETNESS
The conservatory is even busier than the gardens. Unlike the easygoing staff in the garden, employees in the conservatory are busy zooming to and fro with brooms while trying to get a handle on the unexpectedly huge amount of pollen. From flowers, from trees — so much pollen. The ground is coated and the air is thick. Several long-standing guests visiting the area have fallen into sneezing fits. Even with cleaning efforts to mitigate the build-up, the pollen becomes thicker as the weeks go on. Staff eventually give up on trying to sweep it away.
This pollen is not standard. Guests that inhale this pollen will begin to feel feverish and strange. Continued exposure to this pollen will heighten a desire for sex to the point of all-encompassing need. Orgasms become much more intense. Nipples are constantly hard. Guests may also be overwhelmed with the urge to "fertilize or become fertilized" — to aggressively deliver or receive cumshots. Gardeners soon realize that normal pollen has been tainted by the cross-breeding of their new spectacular fruits, resulting in an extremely potent sex pollen that affects people and animals. This sex pollen is stronger than any of the current aphrodisiacs in the resort, baffling the gardeners. They weren't even trying to make horny fruit!
The effects of the sex pollen will ease after a few days unless exposure is continued. Guests with too much exposure to the sex pollen may find themselves passing out from violently intense successive orgasms. Any guests found unconscious post-orgasm will be delivered to the Broken Wing clinic for recovery.
The sex pollen will fade out within a few weeks, when the new breeds of fruit have all been harvested and delivered to restaurants. The gardeners collectively agree to be more careful when engineering new breeds in the future. "I do think," reports one worker in the conservatory, "the house will be impressed that we've managed to engineer an even stronger aphrodisiac. Great things happen on accident!"

PETAL-STAINED LIPS
A BLOOMING DISEASE
👩🦰 "Hack hack, hack hack... what do you mean, 'please cover my mouth when I cough'? I'm a rank nine. Nine! You can't tell me what to do. Now, clean up this mess. I've been coughing up flower petals all day." 👩🦰
Wet, smudged petals scatter across the floors of the Peacock. The source is initially unclear, since the perfectly groomed flowers in their decorative vases are in perfect condition. Soon the number of guests coughing into their fists begins to rise and more soggy plants plague the hallways.
After the garden and conservatory unveil their Spring additions the clinic will begin to over-run with guests complaining of various symptoms. There aren't enough beds and there certainly aren't enough doctors and nurses to meet rising demand. Guests continue to visit the clinic complaining of some sort of flower cold while spitting up petals and leaves. Advanced cases involve a deeper spread of vines through the patient's body.
Though this illness manifests in many different ways, the head doctor in charge is quick to clock that it's the Blooming Disease working its way through the resort's population. Not an especially dangerous disease. More troublesome than anything and a mess to clean up. Luckily, there are extensive notes in their files about this particular disease and how to treat it.
The height of the disease will hit toward the end of the month. Thanks to the hard work of the doctors and nurses in the clinic, cases will begin to decrease as the days pile on, with the majority of the affected guests treated and sent on their way by the beginning of May. Activity in the clinic will begin to decline as patients fuck it out and cure the disease, with only a handful of scattered cases heading past the first week of May.

no subject
Unfortunately, he's being too open and nice for her to want to continue being the pest she usually is. The devious energy fades, replaced by something kinder. Her cleaning gets softer as well, because...wow. He told her something without being cagey or weird. Maybe he really, really likes her?
Yeah. Likes. She'll keep telling herself that. ]
Oh. Ahaha. Not the first name I'd choose for good PR, but...it's nice to know. Thank you.
[ He gets a smile, then she drops to her knees to clean lower spots. She's delicate about it this time, not trying to deliberately arouse him. Learning about him seems to be another way to appease her. ]
If they had you on their side, then it's pretty cut and dry, right? [ She giggles a bit. ] Who could argue against you? I mean, aside from me, because I can speak your grumpy language~
[ Back to seriousness, though, since the topic deserves that. ] What I'm trying to say is...it's the right side. No one gets to be as grumpy as you are, unless they've been fighting for something so worth it for as long as you have. Er, I mean, I hope I'm not being presumptuous or anything! That's just...the feeling that I get.
[ She rises back onto her feet, then holds her hand out to take the one he'd like to have cleaned. That, and it'd be nice to hold his hand. ]
I hope whoever fought with you knows how lucky they are.
no subject
[That being said, he's still a proud Decepticon, and he has no desire to change his faction's name. ]
.... We were once in the right side. Perhaps we can be again. But.... There is no right side in war. [He'll have to forgive him for being a downer. It's difficult not to when there isn't really much to be happy about it, aside from the war finally ending] I believe there is a... human saying. "The road to hell is paved with good intentions"? Our intention is pure, but we've... I've made many compromises.
After the war was over, after our former leader left- [And if Monika remembers, it's the same poet he once talked about back in the bath house.] -I guided my faction to return to our original path- a peaceful movement.
[Soundwave doesn't say anything about the people from his side knowing how lucky they have him as a Decepticon. Sure, for a time, the Decepticons were lucky to have him, someone who genuinely believe in the cause and wouldn't abandon any of them, but let's just say karma came back to bite him and nearly all Deceptcon lost their faith in him.]
Even in a place like this, I intend to continue on the Decepticon path.
no subject
[ He...probably doesn't want to hear her complimenting that former leader, though. She clears her throat, busying herself with carefully cleaning his fingers. Doing that is its own sort of learning experience, getting to explore his hand at her leisure. ]
Anyway. It's like I said! It's the right side if you're on it! Maybe not when war is involved, but equality and peace for everyone? That's good! If you ended up in hell after all that, at least it's a happy hell. That's what I'd want, anyway. If I'm free, I don't care where it is.
[ She can't understand the nuances of war, of course. Age works against her, as well as her constant desperation for normalcy and companionship clouding her worldview. She's not so naive as to think there's only right and wrong, good and bad, but how can anyone argue against what every living being deserves?
With a stronger smile, she squeezes his hand. No need to be a downer! She's being supportive! Let her be your cheerleader! ]
Can I be a Decepticon, too? I'm on your team, no matter what!
no subject
Soundwave stares down at her for a second. Hah... She sure knows how to make him happy with her kind words. It doesn't quite erase all the guilt and sadness plaguing him inside, but Monika's the shining light that without fail always brightens his darkness. His hand gently pats her top of her head.]
You would be the first human Decepticon, then. But I know you are a Decepticon I can always rely on.
[She's so supportive of him. A part of him feels he doesn't deserve such support, especially when she doesn't know much of his past, or the crimes he's committed. Though he's made amend-- or, continues to make amend as long as he's alive, he's not sure Monika would be happy knowing what he had done in the past. Especially towards humanity. Even war doesn't excuse some of his atrocities. Would her view of him change? He doesn't exactly hide his atrocities if asked, but Monika is in that weird line where he cares about how she viewed him.
Well, he'll cross that bridge if it ever comes up. For now, his supportive friend gets some more headpats.]
Thank you, Monika. [And as a reward for all her hard word, she gets a nuzzle!] I believe... You've cleaned me enough. We should get ready and move out to see the rabbits.
no subject
Aye aye, Captain Soundwave! Your second-in-command is always at the ready!
[ She'd have saluted for effect, but she wants to soak up all the attention she's getting. Best of all? He seems to be climbing out of the pit of woe he seemed to be sinking into. Grumpy Soundwave? Fine. Annoyed Soundwave? Perfect. Sad Soundwave? No way!
He gets a fond look when he thanks her, much like the one she'd given him before. At this point, he could say he razed a few cities and she'd shrug it off. What's an atrocity if it was for a good cause? ]
You're welcome. I'll rinse you off, then. And I take it you can dry yourself off so we can get moving faster? Who knew I'd have to waste so much time getting you clean~?
[ She sets her things aside and gets to rinsing him, giggling throughout the process since she gets to be a gremlin with it. Once she's done, she grabs an armful of towels and hands them over. Housekeeping seems to have already come through while they were away, so hooray! No awkward talks about the broken bed! ]
I'm trusting you to guard the room while we're away, okay? [ She giggles more at her silly joke. ] Just kidding~ I'll meet you outside in a few! And make sure you dress like a bunny!
[ He won't, but the thought is hilarious. She snags up one of his hands, giving it a kiss, then she bounces away like one of the little creatures they're about to see. They'll probably be less gremlin-like, though. ]
no subject
[Oh, the irony.
The kiss to his hand gets a blue blush on him, but before Monika moves away from his arm he cups and rub her cheek before they part for good-- well, parting with his real body. They're still together with his holoavatar instead. Soundwave watches as Monika bounces her way out of the bathroom, stifling an amused huff from leaving his vents.
What a silly girl...
He'll move to the bedroom when he's sufficiently dried up and after Monika leaves. For now, he'll dry himself off first with the towrls before materializing the avatar to start with their friend date-- hangout. They had some long detours, but now he can say that it is officially started.
Whenever Monika's done dressing up, his avatar is already waiting outside and leaning against a wall with his arms folded, like a cool guy. As expected, he's too serious of a mech to make a dumb bunny costume to greet Monika woth.
He perks up when he sees Monika, not that it's easy to tell with the mask on, but he quickly walks up to meet her.]
Shall we?
[He holds his hand out towards her, waiting for her to take it.]
no subject
By the time her hair's braided and she's dressed in her earlier clothes--thanks, Soundwave, for insisting she remove them before they got down and dirty--she's forgotten ever having doubts, and she's smiling brightly when she steps out of her room. His reaction to her reappearance chases away anything bothersome that might be lingering, because holding his hand out! Without her having to ask! Eeeeee! She won't even make a joke about his "cool guy" leaning, which is its own amazing thing.
Eagerly, she snatches his hand up. This is going to be the greatest friend date ever. ]
We shall~
[ Off they go! Unfortunately, without his gift of flight being available this time around, it takes more time to get to the top floors, but that just means more time to hold hands. If he doesn't wimp out and let go when someone gets within 100 feet of them, anyway. What a weirdo...
Once they're nearly there, though? The jokes can begin again. It's what the rabbits would want. ]
Don't embarrass me, okay? I know you're going to see lots of cute things, but if you start making really dumb noises, I might have to leave you to spare myself from the cringe!
[ If anyone's going to be making embarrassing noises, it's her. Queen of projecting, this one. ]
no subject
The.... braided hair suits you, Monika. You are beautiful.
[Oops, that slipped out of him before he could clamp it down.
Unaware of Monika's moment of clarity, he's been anticipating for this more than he thought he would. Will this first friend date be their best friend date ever? He gets the feeling it will be! And the butterflies fluttering in his stomach seems to agree. The fluttering intensifies when their hands meet up once again, causing him to give her hand a light squeeze.
After that gauntlet of shame where he had his spike out while bridal carrying Monika and then bridal carrying a sweaty and messy naked Monika to her room, merely holding hands is a walk in a park. That being said, he's still flushing pink under the mask, and he isn't as reciprocating to any affection she decides to throw at him during the walk to the conservatory. At least he never let go of her hand once...
And he's still holding her hand even when they're near the conservatory. Surprising that Monika didn't make any dumb joke during the entire long walk to here, but alas, he knows that it won't be long before he's faced with her dumb
projectionjoke.]As if I would make any dumb noises. You are more likely to start making dumb noises [He quips, all the while giving her nose a light boop. Guess who he learned that from!
Anyway, Soundwave not the type to ever outwardly be giddy or show much emotions, but he's silently excited and giddy to see those rabbits. It's even more exciting when he gets to see rabbits with Monika. For once, he pulls his mask down outside of the context that they're about to have a make out session. Because he's likely to be alone with just Monika and the bunnies. And....]
Hm....?
[As they finally enter the conservatory, they are greeted by a sight that cause Soundwave to blink rapidly. Those sure are a lot of small fuzzy creatures hopping around, eating the vegetables. It's almost chaotic, really. Though Soundwave is a bit dumbfounded by the sight, he figures it's probably normal. It's thanks to Monika that he learned that 'fucking like rabbits' saying today, and if the saying is true, then seeing these many baby bunnies hopping around, overrunning, and causing havoc on the garden might be normal, right?]
There are a lot of rabbits here. I wasn't made aware that they'll be this many. [He gives Monika a light tug.] I wonder... if we can pick one up without scaring them...
[Yea, screw the vegetables. He wants to hang out with bunnies.]
no subject
(It's fine. She'll get him back for that when he least expects it!)
Finally. After all their detours, they've reached the promised land, and-- ]
Excuse you!
[ Her nose twitches after the boop. Rude! How did he learn how to do that? And with that call out, she might go thinking he's a mind reader or something. Double rude! Not that it's a thing to worry about, so she won't entertain the idea.
Before she can quip back, she's distracted by a) him pulling his mask down on his own, and b) rabbits! So many of them! No, really...why are there so many?! Her mouth falls open. This amount of chaos all at once is overwhelming! ]
Er. I don't remember hearing anything about this many being here, but-- [ The tug combined with what he says only frazzles her brain more. ] You want to pick one up...?
[ Who is this Soundwave and where's the real one go? Then again, he did say he liked animals, so maybe this isn't so shocking? She allows herself to be tugged and for him to take the lead on this hare-y adventure, but one of them isn't so quick to put aside caring for the veggies. ]
Gosh, I wonder if this is why my favorite foods have been hard to get lately...
[ Her dietary needs are more important than rabbits! ]
no subject
And he LIKES animals. Would he call himself an animal lover? well, he wouldn't but that's debatable. Of course, if he was with anyone else instead of Monika, Soundwave would've continue to act proper, dignified and not show as much excitement as he is. Although if he was with other people, he wouldn't have his hand glued to their hand at all. Right now, with Monika, he can try to loosened himself up a little.]
Perhaps. These small creatures are... voracious eaters.
[Look at them go, eating all those veggies. For such tiny beings, too...
While Soundwave scans the sea of bunnies tearing apart the veggies, he spots one little rabbit unlucky to reach any of the veggies or fruit before their brothers and sisters hopped past it. Well, that won't do. Feeling pity for the tiny creature, Soundwave lightly tugs her along to one of the fruits hanging off a tree while wading through the sea of fuzzy bunnies.
Remember all the time before where she always drag him off to wherever she wanted to go? Now it's her turn to be dragged around by him.
Anyway. After he plucked a fruit, a peaplumto specifically, Soundwave motions to get that unlucky bunny's attention and holds the fruit out towards it. Come on, even with the expressionless look, he's harmless.]
no subject
[ Honestly, it's cute seeing him be so fascinated, even if he's also being pushy in the weirdest way. In the softest way. She's reminded of how he treats her when they're hidden away from the public. It's something only she gets. It's extra special. In fact, she's a little jealous of the rabbit he's giving attention to. She's right there! Where's her fruit!!!
Her expression sours when the rabbit sniffs curiously and hesitantly comes closer. Maybe the little furball will choke on it. Then she can have the attention that's rightfully hers! ]
You know, they're not as cute as I thought they'd be. Up close, they kinda remind me of rats. The ones that eat garbage and live in sewers!
[ She lets go of his hand so she can cross her arms. She refuses to take part in this shameful display that ignores her needs! ]
no subject
They remind you of rats? [As she lets go of his hand, he turns to look at her with a mildly surprise look. She was so excited to hang out with the bunnies before. Did something change?] If you... say so. I find them... cute.
[And that's when he sensed something from her.
Um... Why is he sensing jealousy? That's weird. In any case, Soundwave drops the fruit for the bunny to eat and reaches out to pet bunny. Except it seems to flinch away from him. Ah... Oh well, maybe he can find a friendlier one. He'll just leave the little one and its snack. Maybe the others can join in and share. The plump fruit looks big enough for at least two or three. Now then...
Monika. She seems upset.]
Would you like a fruit, as well?
no subject
That doesn't mean she's going to stop being an idiot brat, though. Of course not. At least he has no reason to suspect why she's acting this way. Friends don't get jealous like this! ]
I'm not hungry.
[ As if she wants that tainted rat fruit! She snorts, but mainly it's because she's satisfied that the stupid cute bunny flinched away from him. Yeah, that's right, stupid rabbit! Only she can touch him! The satisfaction doesn't last long, though. A few more hungry bunnies are tempted over by an easy meal. Little jerks! ]
You probably don't find me cute enough for it, anyway!
[ He said she was cute in the maze, which was an extension of something he'd already said in the past. He called her beautiful literally moments ago! Is she stupid? ]
no subject
Soundwave just stares at her with utter confusion. Baffled that she's suddenly acting all bratty when he hasn't even done anything to her. Even more baffling when she said he doesn't find her cute enough. Monika is confusing him.]
What makes you say that?
[Hadn't he said she's cute and even beautiful? Where is this jealousy coming from... All he did is give the bunny a fruit...
Unless... She was jealous of that?]
Monika, need I remind you that I find you... beautiful and cute. I will even feed fruits to you, if you want me to.
[In fact, he'll get up to pluck a peaplumpto, comes back, and holds it up to Monika's mouth. Is.... Is that what she wanted?]

Well. Because!
[ Which means she has no answer for that question. Shocking! Even if she did have one, she'd struggle to say it. That might let off she feels more than friendly towards him. She then sputters as he continues, too flummoxed to come up with any further arguments. Does she need to, though? She kind of got exactly what she wanted here...
Ha! Take that, bunnies! She's the winner! ]
I didn't say you have to remind me of that or anything. [ Remind her. ] I don't need to hear it all that often, since saying it too much might break your brain. [ She does need to hear it. Say it over and over. ] But I guess if you're insisting I have some fruit, I shouldn't turn it down...
[ There's a small group of rabbits gathered around the peaplumto Soundwave had offered earlier. She laughs in triumph. Victory is sweeter! Her fruit's being fed directly to her! ]
Thank you, Waveypoo~
[ She has no idea what's being held out to her, but she leans forward and takes a giant bite. As she chews, she hums out another triumphant laugh...then jerks back. Whoa. Victory is literally sweet! ]
That's--! [ Wait! Manners! She shields her mouth to be polite. ] It's so sweet! And weird! You should try one!
no subject
He couldn't help but shake his head at Monika. ]
Perhaps, but I will keep reminding and telling you are beautiful whether you want to hear it or not.
[Wow, she's actually laughing triumphantly over.... A bunch of baby bunnies too hungry and busy eating everything to even acknowledge them. He won't point out how, uh.... Absurdly petty she's being. Well, so long as Monika's enjoying herself again.
Wouldn't be a good friend date if she's immediately upset from the start.]
Stop calling me that stupid nickname. [Ugh, no matter how many times he hears it, it just sounds dumber and dumber. His brows curve up in mild surprise at her strong reaction after the first bite.]
Hm, it must be good if you reacted that way. But, I'll pass for now... I want to feed you fruit first, then we can share feed fruits to each other.
[While watching the bunnies feasting. So, he'll keep holding the fruit to her, unbeknown of its special effect on anyone who eats it.]
There... Seems to be different fruits around here. Do you want to try another, beautiful Monika?
[Now, she'll get that as a free treat. From now on, he'll have to be careful calling her beautiful all the time at every minute. Don't want to feed her ego too much.]
no subject
Maybe I'll just shut off my ears! [ And, as revenge: ] Waveypoo.
[ After taking her next bite, or rather, snagging the remainder so she can eat it at her leisure, she smirks. What more can she do to annoy him? So many options, so little time! Once she's recovered from her free ego boost, anyway. ]
Why don't you pick, my beeeaaaauuuutiful Waveypoo? In fact, would you like some helpers~?
[ She gobbles down the rest of her peaplumto, then she grabs the tiniest bunny nearby and hastily places it on his shoulder. They can't be alone, though! So, she grabs another for his other shoulder and deposits it there. With luck, she's done this quickly enough that he can't stop her, but even if she hasn't, the sudden need to drown him in fluff is being satisfied. ]
Go forth, Lord of the Bunnies!
no subject
He rolls his eyes. Whatever.
.... He won't complain about the bunnies sitting on both his shoulders, though. Without saying a word, he turns and begins to search for a different fruit to feed Monika and the bunnies serving as guards latched onto his shoulders.]
This one looks good, Princess Bunny.
[Oh look, her silliness has infected Soundwave that he's playing along with it now.
As for the fruit in his hand... A pearapple! Not that Soundwave knows it's called that, nor does he know it's hybrid of two different fruits. It doesn't matter, though, because it looks delicious. So, he holds it up to Monika's mouth while the other hand plucks another pearapple for the bunnies.]
no subject
We're the Lord and Lady of Bunnylandia! And you! [ His boop from earlier is finally returned. ] Are the cutest of us all!
[ With a wink, she cheerfully takes a bite of this new offering. Again, she jerks back in surprise, then follows it up with a big smile. This one's even better! ]
These are so neat! It's hard to describe them... [ She munches thoughtfully, then: ] I wonder if I can take a few to make a fruit salad?
[ Maybe she should ask some of the staff for guidance? Nahhhh. And so much for silly things like permission, because now she's tiptoeing around rabbits, hopping up to pluck fruits out of trees, using the front of her t-shirt as an impromptu sack. ]
Ahahaha! This is so fun! [ She darts back over to him, then nuzzles against one of his cheeks after chomping on more pearapple. The bunny on his shoulder is getting some nuzzling too, seeing as she didn't want to move it. ] Every day's the best with Lord Bunny~
[ Prepare yourself, Soundwave. Things are only going to go downhill from here. Public affection is merely the tip of the iceberg. ]
no subject
I am afraid you got that wrong. That would be you.
[She's the cutest of all in Bunnylandia! Not him! Never will!
Soundwave tilts his head at her reaction after chomping on the pearapple. Either Monika's overreacting, or the fruits really are that good to earn that sort of reaction. Either way, it must means all the fruits they grew here must be really good, then. Now he wonders how the fruits taste....? Alas, he's feeding a group of three, not including himself in there. They'll benefit more from the fruits than him. After all, the body is still a fake, at the end of the day.
A smile doesn't creep up on him, but his stoic expression softens up a little after seeing how happy Monika is now. And the nuzzling? As expected, such a public affection gets Soundwave's cheek to fluster red, but he finds it cute when Monika gives the bunnies on him some deserved nuzzling, too. And here he thought Monika hates the bunnies.]
So long as you are enjoying yourself, Monika. But do care not to fill up your stomach too much, I see more new fruits.
[That said, he'll hold any pearapple to her mouth if she wants to chomp on another. If only he knows. If only he knows he's contributing to things going downhill.]
no subject
[ Suddenly, all the fruits she'd gathered tumble down and scatter on the ground. New bunnies swarm them almost immediately, eagerly devouring their unexpected meal. Monika pays it no mind. Soundwave is becoming her sole focus, and that was made obvious by how she'd wrapped her arms around him and pulled him against her. She giggles, having another bite of the pearapple, cheeks flushed with excitement as she swallows it down. ]
...Because I've got a better meal right in front of me! So sweet and cute and scrumptious! In fact~ [ Because she can make it better! ] You're the most sweetest and most cutest and the most scrumptiousest!
[ Ignore her bastardizing a language that didn't deserve it. Maybe the sweetness counteracts the bastardization, though.
After shifting one rabbit to the top of his head, she nibbles on his ear and neck (or at least makes an attempt at nibbling on the latter). For someone that's already a noisy person, she's being exceedingly noisy, letting out quite the assortment of happy, giddy squeals. She can't help it! She's just! so! happy! And she wants! to do! all! the things!
One of those things she wants to do is carry him like he carries her when he's in his real body. One of her arms drops lower to hook under his knees, then there she goes, trying to lift him up to be the beautiful bride he was meant to be. ]
Come on~ I wanna show off my sweet Soundwave to everyone~
no subject
What she does next, though? Too much affection. Each words, even when she repeats them, gets him to fluster, cheeks getting brighter and brighter.]
Monika, calm down.
[Oh Primus, she's nibbling on his ear and neck, body shivering and Soundwve holding down the pleased noise that nearly escaped his throat. Please, she's so sweet. Oh, he's too weak to this much affection, fighting between wanting more and pulling the giddy Monika away. At least the only audience around them are mostly rabbits and probably a few other people either busy or enjoying.
No, no, no. That's still too many people! It has to be zero people for Monika to be this affection to him.]
What?
[Show him off? W-why? Before he could even protest the idea, Monika is already dropping down to... lift him up?]
Wait, Monika. Hold on-
[Can... Can she carry him? His avatar is tremendously lighter than his real body obviously, but does she has the strength to bridal carry an adult woman the same height and weight as her? Plus, there are still the small rabbits sitting on top him?
However, if she does manage to lift him up, the rabbits hop down onto the ground and Soundwave has enough self control to not make a sound but his face- so fully red as a tomato and looking panicked over the dumb thing she's about to do.]
Put me down, Monika.
no subject
If only she had the strength she needed for this endeavor. While she does keep fit, she's not exactly getting jacked in the gym every day. The moment she tries to lift him, a loud oof! whooshes out. His feet get maybe an inch off the ground before she drops him back down.
Hmm.
...Okay, new plan! The rabbits are definitely abandoning their perches, because Monika's going for hefting him over her shoulder next. This struggle doesn't seem to be bothering her, however. She's laughing like it's going out of style, louder yet whenever she hears him protest or reacts the way anyone being treated like a sack of potatoes would. ]
You'll be fine! I've got you! Ahahaha~
[ She, uh, probably doesn't have anything. But something being impossible has never stopped her before. He's getting thrown over her shoulder if it's the last thing she does! ]
Put on a smile, okay~? I want everyone to see you at your prettiest~
no subject
Whatever protest he's making at her new dumb plan gets drown out by her laughter. At this point, Soundwave is seeing something strange is going on. Monika being happy isn't too strange, but she's being so obnoxiously giddy and loud that there must be something in the air affecting her, this way.]
What is happening to you? We haven't done much and yet you are... enjoying yourself too much.
[She gets a light bonk at the back. That's for carrying him like he's some sack of potatoes!]
I do not smile for anyone. Put me down, Monika.
[Ok, maybe for Monika he does, but everyone else doesn't get to see this part of him!]
no subject
[ There's nothing weird going on in her eyes. She's having fun! She's happy! No amount of his grumpiness or fussiness is going to put a damper on that. Nor will her inability to walk very far now that she's got him on her shoulder. No one ever told her lifting someone was so hard...
No big deal! She giggles some more, though it's pretty jittery from how much her body's shaking from the effort to keep him on her shoulder. The struggle does nothing to keep her from giving his butt a playful spank to counter his bonk. Now they're both having fun! Have tons of fun with her, Soundwave! ]
Don't you want everyone to see how much you mean to me? Hmmmm~?
[ It'll be a slow journey. While she's moving, it's at a snail's pace. People are definitely paying attention, though! She cheerfully greets them, then adds on something quite suspect as much as she possibly can: ]
Meet my alien boyfriend! He's the bestest!
