Ari is patrolling the streets of scenic Vancouver! Well, actually he's just going to visit Peter, but he's keeping an eye out for monsters along the way. It's a nice night, monsters like ruining that kind of thing. The streets are more or less deserted, it being 2:00 AM on a Tuesday. Ari whistles cheerfully.
The mouse turns out to be a demon! THIS WAS ENTIRELY UNEXPECTED
Then the screen goes black and the origin is over. "I hunger," says Ari ridiculously ominously. "I'm gonna go kitchenwards for snacking purposes."
Ari surveys food supplies. "These are all boring," he declares. "D'you mind waiting a couple of minutes so we can get good food?"
A portly demon in a striped hat appears and begins halfheartedly savaging the boundary of the circle. His heart clearly isn't in it, however, and he leaves off after a few moments. "Now that's out of the way, what can I do for you, summoner?"
"Pen, any preferences?"
"I don't know what Earth foods are there," Pen points out. "Haven't ever been an Earth, only an alike where is not so much of technology."
"Certainly. I'll take five ounces of pixie dust as payment, or equivalent."
"Highway robbery," Ari mutters, but he nods. "The pact is sealed. Kal'gzxoth, return to your hellish realm and procure what I desire within five minutes' time. Go!"
The demon vanishes with the smell of applewood-smoked pork.
"Bread, cheese, sauce, various additional delicious things often but not always involving meat. Italian in general contains lots of bread and pasta and creamy sauces and garlic. God damn I am hungry right now. I'd be eating the furniture if Sally wouldn't get irritable about it."
"Serah do a spidersilk pasta in many onion and olive oil and stuff! With chicken. Serah Mommy's best of friend."
"Ooh. Nice! Sally makes pasta sometimes. Sally cooks with miracles and rainbows and unicorn tears, I never have to summon takeout demons when she's around."
"Figure of speech, figure of speech. That's usually what I'm doing when I say something unusually weird."
"Unicorn go space plant party," says Pen. "Nice unicorn and shouldn't crying. Miracles rainbows also joking?"
