[ There's a blur of color and too-bright fluorescent lights before the camera stops abruptly in front of the frozen food aisle of a grocery store. ]

See that? [ She probably means the frankly alarming amount of eggo waffles, zooming in on a few boxes for emphasis. ] They keep getting restocked somehow. [ And she's taken a lot. So she'd actually know.

Switching the camera view, Sylvie's face fills the screen. She looks awfully stern, like she's about to launch into theorizing or even a warning about the validity of the food. But she doesn't. Instead, inexplicably: ]

All of those are mine—even the ones that aren't there yet. [ ... she's serious. ] Fight me if you want, but I call dibs.

@weltyang

[indwelt]

[Loki peers into the camera at the bright yellow boxes and frowns. He’s busy trying to figure out why they would be so important when the person posting the video comes on screen and he feels startled, though he can’t quite put his finger on why except that she seems somehow familiar.]

And what is so important about those things? What makes you so important that they are all yours? Is your name Eggo?

What are eggos?

@vogel, audio

[halbird]

[ wait

he kind of likes those. maybe don quixote up there will fight for their household's honor and earn some, but sinclair is a useless young man.

so. ]

Ah— dibs on all of them? You won't... let even one box go?

[ please they're so easy he just has to pop them in the toaster and they taste so good

this week is the worst ]

[matermali]

For those of us with no desire to fight, you would not even consider the kindness of sharing how they might taste?

[nerine]

Gonna have to think of some creative ways to use up those eggos

May I suggest a waffle burger?

@Alhaitham

[justscribing]

"Somehow" meaning you haven't actually seen how they're restocking?

[hardestbattle]

What are they?

[A face painted blue pops, she looks confused.]

@nebula

[furibund]

Who in their right mind would go to combat over freezer-burned pastries?

[ Look, she probably had some kind of experience with them on Earth at Avenger's Compound. ]

voice. @kaveh

[fussiest]

Is that food in those boxes? [ the rise of surprise in a tone that is punctuated by the sudden silence of his footsteps. kaveh considers the portmanteau on the screen. ] Well, I suppose it's all yours, but would the ones in the back rot by the time you finish eating the ones in the front? It wouldn't be very fresh; you'd get sick, wouldn't you?
