Instant milk and instant coffee are always going to taste like shit water. [ unbothered by him looking severe, frankly. he reaches for one of the easy mac cups, opening it with one hand, heel of his palm braced on the lip so he can get it torn off. ]
Cold water makes it worse, but if you leave the water out it gets a little warmer with this uncomfortable wheeze of sauna air we've got going on. [ dumps noodles out ] And the right concoction makes it tolerable.

It's not for me, it's for him.
[ the tone speaks volumes: aka, i don't care what it tastes like if it were fore me, but i care what it tastes like for him. he gestures with a brief nod of the head towards a far off cot where lu bixing is just vibing since this is how sisi and i are living our canonmate lives for w0. sticky...... but he looks at his cup expectantly like
chop chop balmy air. gross.
but then he will glance at kon. ]
Show me.

[ time for the planetarium... how hilarious. when lin jingheng decides to come scrutinize things in here, kon and yoru are already present. kon's currently fiddling with a telescope, a frown on his face as the fiery depths of hell cast a terrible light from the viewing room.
yoru is laying on his back, staring up at the projected cosmos and constellations with childish glee. ]

[ oh it's a baby and a babier baby. jingheng has been here already, but it's about as close to stars as he can get here, even if they aren't real. he actually doesn't see kon until he has suddenly turned on the projection system, revealing a spray of soft starlight and sending it scattering across the room. ]
Still no stars out there?

[ him? he angles his head a little, looking out of the corner of his eye for where lin jingheng directs his attention, somehow not surprised, considering his earlier conversation with the guy and the whole. gestures at him hovering in public. ]
Alright, so. I'm going to let the coffee soak in its own cup filled about halfway with water. Warm it up for a bit and sort of steep it, while a can with just water finishes heating up since I left that out already. [ ripping one of them open to pour in. ] Another one, I'm going to mix some of the powdered milk and cream from one of the Twinkies until it's a paste to make a creamer with a splash of water in that.
Making a paste first ensure that everything is incorporated for when you add the water to make a creamer.

[ stars! everywhere! the babier baby is preoccupied once the projection is on the ceiling, and it's for the best. the adult and the adultier adult are talking now. ]
No. And nothing in here is familiar to me at all. Probably the same for you? [ the planets on display, the various patterns left behind by the projector. ]

[ waggles the telescope he's been messing with now. ]
I guess it makes sense, since we're supposedly in Hell. But if none of us recognize anything, is it really nonsense or is it somewhere none of us have ever seen? [ compacts the telescope with a series of clicks, huffing ] And would it even matter if we knew?

[ in the computer lab, lin jingheng is "pspspspsps"-ing with some coffee in take out cups and a paper bag that has like a couple of donuts in it from donkin dunnts (i will never remember the name). carbs for all the fucking brain shit we did at trial. anyways.
he looks at kon at whatever computer he's sitting at. ]
You look like you're waiting for the earth to swallow you whole.

[ yoru looks up from where he's seated next to kon, waving at lin jingheng as the teen hunches further into the desk. table. whatever the computers are on. his cheek is on the keyboard and he is, in fact, begging the earth to swallow him whole.
the computer is on 7% for rebooting. ]
That would be preferable to all of the bullshit we just went through.

[ hello little yoru. jingheng glances at baby and gives him a nod before sitting on the edge of the desk. he puts down one of the cups by kon's nearest hand. he glances at the slowly loading computer and winces internally. he is no stranger to witnessing this kind of behavior. ]
Are you torturing yourself more with these decrepit machines?
[ opening the bag, gesturing to the screen. ]

[ slowly, he sits upright as if pulled by threads, huffing through his nose and reaching for the cup with a muttered gratitude. ]
I wish I had a screwdriver. [ yes he is ] It was meant to be a distraction, seeing if I could get it to work, but it's turning into... I don't know.

Can't recognize any of the planets on the displays... it's completely unfamiliar.
[ he rests his hands behind his head, closing his eyes. ]
And probably not. Seeing as how we're dead... there's likely a catch before we can even think about returning home.

No. I took one from the kitchen, along with some other utensils, just in case someone from a renfaire world decided to ruin them somehow, but I didn't want to use it for anything else.
[ the way he says it makes it sound like he's considering the fact he might have to, now. ]
Maybe I'll see if I can find one or bargain with the demons.

[ did you want to check out the costume closet with your son? congratulations, you could be a sexy military commander - even sexier than you already are now! ]
I get this is Hell, but is this really entertaining to someone out there? [ holding up the sleeve of something as he looks around, kind of exasperated. ]
