Cubefall: Day Two

[keytyke]

[Millitimed to the 7th of June]

It's been a few minutes since Mairi could get away with visiting Milliway's. If it wasn't one thing, it was another; then the Door vanished for a while. But it's back, and it's Cubefall! She loves changing into new forms, just to feel them for a few seconds, and she loves building with the toys.

She skips into the bar and doesn't even fly a little bit. She's a big girl who doesn't use her powers unless she wants to.

"Ana, Ana, come on!"

Whether or not her cousin comes on, Mairi zips over to the Bar. "Hi, Bar! I'm back! Is Fry doing all right?"

Hardly waiting for an answer, she turns to grin up at her Uncle Enzo. "Hi! I missed you! What have you been doing? How's Aunt Dani? Can I come to the Super Computer?"

"Oh!" Fry nods. "Finally, someone explained that properly. I had an ear infection last week again, but it didn't explode. How is your well-being?"

[keytyke]

"My well-being is alphanumeric! I'm processing efficiently and quickly." Mairi edges forward a little to look at Fry's line. Is he making the same pattern as last Cubefall? "Do ear infections usually explode? That seems like a bad upgrade."

[fry_sandhu]

Pretty much. Except this time it's lined up so that it looks nearly the same horizontally as from above.

"Sometimes. I don't tell Dad when my ear hurts because the doctor has to put a pointy thing in it."

[keytyke]

"Like a sword?"

Mairi starts picking out her own blocks and lays a circle off to the side of Fry's design.

[fry_sandhu]

"What are you making?" Fry asks.

"No, it has a hole in it."

[keytyke]

Mairi tries to visualize that and just comes up with a sword with a hole in the upper part below the hilt.

"The Principle Office! It's where Momma works."

[fry_sandhu]

"Is that because she has lots of principles?"

[keytyke]

"I think it was called that before she was COMMAND.COM. But I bet Phong has lots of principles!" He has many things in his drawer.

[fry_sandhu]

Fry has no idea what that means so he carries on arranging his blocks.

"Who's Pong?"

[keytyke]

"Phong, as in file," Mairi corrects. "He was the COMMAND.COM before Mama was. He's nice, but I don't always understand him. But Daddy says he doesn't either."

[fry_sandhu]

"I don't understand what you mean." Fry says.
