2nd Lotus: Instant Stupid, Just Add Powder [Visual / Action]

[This past week had been very trying on the students of Beacon Academy. Short tempers flared, mistakes were made, ponies may have been frozen… it was altogether not a fun week.]

[But now, the blizzard has died down and the windingoes have been chased away. Tensions may still be high, however, so Ren decides to fix that by inviting everyone over for pancakes and hot chocolate. The powdered kind. Best he could afford and get on such short notice.]

[Of course, the scrolls can’t leave some friends well enough alone, so Ren’s manages to unroll itself and hang over the counter just enough to give a good view of the group sitting around a table in Ren’s room at the commune.]

[The group whiles away the time waiting for the water to boil by talking, catching up and remembering times at Beacon. Somewhere along the line Jaune got up, deciding he might as well spend the time by getting mugs ready.]


Okay, how much does everybody want?

[A chorus of replies follows, with Ruby of course piping up ”Double for me!” and earning a warm laugh from her sister. Conversation picks back up while the mugs are prepared, but it’s Pyrrha who notices Jaune staring thoughtfully at the container.]

Jaune?

I wonder what happens when you try to eat the powder by itself?

[The suggestion is initially met with silence, then mixed replies. Pyrrha, of course, warns him not to but is overshadowed by Yang’s enthusiastic ”Do it!”, Ruby’s bright curiosity, and Ren and Blake’s… silent observation (This is gonna be good).]

[True to form Jaune decides to do it anyway, picking up a generous scoop of the powder and sticks it in his mouth. One… two…]

[He whips his head back and coughs out a huge cloud of powder, which is enough to send ripples of laughter through the group.]


I hope you realize-[Pffft-] -you’re cleaning up the ceiling.

[Jaune would reply, really. Verbally anyway; he manages a nod before another cough, a raised hoof doing absolutely nothing from keeping the powder going everywhere. At least everyone’s still laughing.]

Okay- [Hack, powder spilling.] -Note to self, never aga- [He exhaled a whuff of it and shook his head, at least laughing through the tears.] It’s in my eyes!

[Safe to say the group is completely and absolutely gone. Even Pyrrha’s giggling hard, almost as much as she had at the dance, no matter how much she was trying not to.]

Oh Jaune…

Still the life of the party, as always...

[It’s at this point that Ren, in the midst of a laughing fit, looks over to see the scroll on and broadcasting to the town at large. The realization makes him cover his face to hide the fact he’s laughing even harder now. Everypony just saw that. Even if he could say something, he decides against it. They’ll find out soon enough.]

[OOC: Replies will come from... whoever the heck's not laughing at the moment. Or more than one of them. Or all of them. It's a grab bag, really.]

[He's going to try, at least, throwing out his hooves and shaking his head.

Might need more convincing than that.]

That's a great idea! Chug that instead! Go go go go go!

(Blake's not the only one who'll join in with her sister on the chanting!)

You can do it, Jaune! Chug, chug, chug! Go go go go go!
