Gray accepted one of the wrapped monstrosities cautiously, inspecting it with a critical eye as he wondered how in the world the lab coats thought it was a good idea to keep her supplied with a constant stream of sugar. But then again, when one considered just how dangerous a sugar withdrawn girl that could do all kinds of worrisome crap with her mind could be, maybe this was the sensible option. A small grin wormed its way into his expression at the thought.

[color=slategray]”Even if we aren’t quite human, I have no idea how your stomach handles this garbage,”[/color] he mused dryly as he turned the all too literal sugar bomb between his fingers. While Karu had the audacity to call the stuff candy, the Godslayer knew from rather unfortunate experience just how sickeningly sweet it was.

A flash of movement caught his attention, but he couldn’t quite make out what had happened. But when he glanced away from the candy and saw Kat, one of the top contenders on his People-We-Absolutely-Positively-No-Not-Even-If-It-Would-Be-Hilarious-Don’t-Ever-Fuck-With List, trying to turn him to ash with her glare alone, he knew that the unbearable morning was about to become even more so. And with Karu now crouched and hiding in front of him, just barely able to keep herself from giggling up a storm, well, it didn’t take a genius to put two and two together.

[color=slategray]”Oh, you are so dead to me,”[/color] he muttered just loud enough for the little envoy of his doom to hear him. 

 And as he saw the blue ball, which she somehow managed to make look incredibly menacing despite all appearances, he could tell how this story was going to end.  Even though he fully expected it, his face would have been sporting a brand new framework if it weren’t for his enhanced reflexes. But even then, the bright sphere had already crossed half the distance between the two before Gray managed to start opening a Rift right in front of his face. He clenched his teeth, hard, and he could have sworn it cursed in irritation as it flew straight into the opening in the universe that he had made.

[color=0076a3]"Next time pick a fight with someone that won't crush that lazy ass of yours in five seconds!"[/color]
 
The words did little to shake the dumbstruck, mouth slightly agape, look Gray had taken on. He was about to let out a great sigh of relief, only to groan in disgust and gently slap a hand over his face as he realized where he had sent the damn thing. The image was simply far too familiar to him, so in his haste it was the first thing his mind had thought to picture. All of the aggressive remodeling that would have been done to his face had instead been transferred to his beautiful, innocent bed. Thoughts about the wreck that awaited him once he got back to his room were almost too much for the layabout to bear.

[color=slategray][i]’This right here is why mornings should be destroyed entirely,’[/i][/color] he thought all too bitterly.
