"Umm. Well, um.." Ada blinked at Cream's question, finding herself at a loss. Luckily, Milo spoke up. "Oh! Right, yes. An order. Maybe a pizza?"

"Sorry, sorry." Jenny held up her hands, her LEDs briefly displaying a fluttering truce flag. "Don't knot your tail! We'll have lunch, play a few rounds of Plumber Party, exchange emails, yaddayaddayadda! Easy peasy, no harm no foul, and I can take Cream home until next time." "I appreciate your concern, Mister Milo," Cream said earnestly. "I can play a little, and if it would make you feel better I am very much capable of getting home myself. Also, I would like green peppers on my pizza, please."

Not a lot to go on but at least noone was insulting him anymore. “Okaaay well I was gonna get a m-meat lovers so..i could get p-peppers on it but I dunno if you w-wanted something else?” He just looked between the two girls, hoping for something more concrete, taking a moment to throw a quizzical expression Jenny’s way. “Y-you..don’t eat right? Or do you?”

That would be fine Mister Milo," Cream said, nodding. "I don't mind a few meats." "Nope!" Jenny said brightly in response to the question. "I don't even have a mouth!" She lifted both hands to her cheeks, index fingers poking at where the corners of her mouth would be for emphasis. "Soooo whatever you guys want works. I'd just get tomato sauce on my fluff anyway!"

Blinking at that mental image, Ada couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh. "It's never stopped RK from trying to smash food into his face plate. Metal complains about him doing that all the time."

Pulling a small notepad and pencil from his hammerspace, always come prepared, the coyote began jotting down. “Okay so meat lover w-with extra green peppers…maybe some sp-spicy nachos or chicken wings.” He pointed the pencil in Jenny and Bacon’s directions. “N-Nothing for you two….Ada what’re yo-RK?...Who’s RK?” Whatever this RK was, sounded like they had a screw loose but if they knew Metal Sonic they had to be high up in the empire…right? Blink. A sudden flash of newfound panic hit Milo and he clenched his jaw tight, afraid to speak up but if Ada was so casual about mentioning she knew Metal, Cream could find out more about her and tell and then the Doctor would get mad at him for failing his job and GAAAH!

"RK is... RK," Jenny said, as if that was the final word on the matter. "He can do what he wants, I'm not gonna get all saucy. I'd have to wait for a replacement and you know I hate going around naked!" Cream's ears did indeed perk up at hearing Ada mention Metal. It had been... awhile... since she saw him, but if Ada knew one robotic hedgehog, then... "You, um... know Mister Metal?" she asked cautiously.

... D'OH. Ada froze, her hair practically frizzing. Slooowwwly her head turned to look at Cream, a toothy, plastic grin on her face. "Mister Metal? Oh, there's lots of Metals. It's a very common name. Lots of robots around, you know. You know Jenny hates it when people call her a Metal Amy!" her words spilled out at a quick pace, her cheeks flushing a bit with color. @sebacon@ Bacon's eyes went wide as Ada rambled on. Turning toward his owner in a panic, the mechanical little pig began gronking and stamping at her pant leg.

Hoping to move the conversation along swiftly, Milo scratched down a few notes and stepped between Ada and Cream. “Okay, so! Ada wh-what did you want with y-Metal Amy?” He glanced to Jenny. “Who’s Amy?” Before shaking his head. Focus. If Ada’s secret got out on his watch, he was done for. “Ada. Pizza uh..what d’you w-want on it?” He just stared pleadingly at the redhead girl, hoping Cream didn’t follow up on the slipup.

Cream actually took a half-step back at Ada's grin before collecting herself and standing up straight. "Why would anyone ever think to call her a Metal--" She cut off, frowning. She'd seen what Jenny looked like under her plush shell, and something about Ada's grin tickled at the back of her mind, and Milo's panic pointed to something big going on here (and she wasn't talking cats), and... and.... And it'd be terribly rude to push the issue, wouldn't it? But what if it needed to be pressed? Cream faltered, scuffing at the floor with one foot. "I don't think she looks very much like Amy at all," she said at last. Diplomacy first. Jenny could only stare at Ada, red WARNING exclamation points and NO symbols briefly flashing in her eyes. She could see the gears turning in Cream's head - how could she have chosen the one little girl who apparently had some familiarity with Metal? Did she pick up on the mention of RK too? Now what? "I don't think she looks very much like Amy at all."Ooooh, wait! That was the nicest thing anyone had told her today! (That Cream was apparently familiar with at least one of Sonic's friends was duly stored away to Worry About Later.) "Right! I look like me!" Her eye display crinkled its irises in a smile. "Now let's get you that pizza!"

"Yes! Pizza! Pizza is very good! A pepperoni and mushroom pizza!" Ada said with a bit too much enthusiasm. "And maybe some video games! Do you like All-Stars Racing?" @sebacon@ Bacon, meanwhile, flopped onto his stomach with an exasperated grunt.

Almost breaking his pencil as he scribbled down the order, Milo didn’t even look up at the question. “Uh..i guess? I h-haven’t played many racers. But you girls do what you want. I… I need some air.” With a long heavy sigh, he turned for the door. He did worry about leaving Ada considering she was his responsibility but…Jenny would protect her, right? Right.

Cream perked up, nodding. "I do like All Stars racing! Mama doesn't like games much, so I only really have someone to play with when Amy comes by." She was not of course allowed to use online functions. Not after what that loud angry racer she'd competed with had had to say about coming in second. Vaguely she wondered if she could get Mister Shadow or Miss Blaze to play sometime, but... that was a question for later. "Um... will Mister Milo be all right?" "He will be," Jenny said. "He's kind of.... high strung. We'll play a couple rounds and then he'll be ready to join us! Right Ada?"

"Haha, yeah," Ada laughed nervously as she flipped the power button on a nearby computer tower. Its monitor lit up as she began working on getting the game set up. "It's just been a very surprising day! Milo doesn't seem to take surprises very well. Ah, here we go!" Clicking open the game from her library, the title cards began to roll as the young girl began to fish out a couple of spare controllers in addition to the two that were already hooked up to the machine. She set one of the spares off to the side for when Milo returned and offered two of the controllers to Jenny and Cream. "I hope you don't mind that my copy has been modded."

"Oh." Cream felt that someone living in Eggmanland (of all places!) should probably be accustomed to surprises, but... well. That was his business, she supposed. "I don't mind at all! I'd like to see what kinds of mods you use... I'm not allowed to download mods on my games!" "Oh, they're really cool!" Jenny took one controller and passed the other to Cream. "Here, you can pick before me...."

"Yeah, I made most of these myself," Ada beamed. "Programming is kind of a big hobby of mine. Check this out!" taking her controller, the young girl flipped through the character select screen, landing on a custom character that bore a familiar pair of pigtails. "I added me and Jenny as playable characters! I could.. add you too, later, if you like?"

A few doors down Milo was doubled over, head between his knees taking long, deep breaths as he tried to calm his jackhammering heart. This. Was. A DISASTER. What on Gaia did he think he was doing? “Hey buddy, you okay?” The attendee behind the register asked as he jotted down orders. “Your pizzas should be ready soon.” “I…I’m fine..” Milo panted, clearly still winded. Shambling over, he dumped a handful of rings onto the counter. “Can i..g-get a Chaos Cola? Ice cold…a-and a paper bag?”

"Oh! I would like that very much, thank you!" She clicked slowly through the select screen, pausing now and then to look over an unfamiliar character. "All of these are very well done! Was it hard to learn to do?" "Ada's the best at this!" Jenny said brightly. Her icon was idling on a sprite with soft pink spines - waiting for Cream to choose as promised, but she knew what she wanted! "None of the others I've seen look even close to this good." Not that she'd seen many, but that was aside from the point.

"Not really, it kinda runs in my family," Ada answered, rotating her wrist as though trying to reel her point out. "My daddy's amazing at this sort of thing, so he showed me a lot of tricks they don't really teach you and I sort of picked up the rest on my own. There's a sort of art to it, you know? And it's really satisfying to just be able to invent things out of code and watch them come to life!" Ada turned, putting an arm around their pink android companion and pulling her in for a side-hug. "Like Jenny here! Daddy was so proud when I made her!"

Jenny leaned into Ada with a cheerful mechanical peep. That the conversation may be edging into dangerous territory hadn't really struck home with her; it was natural for Ada to brag about her amazing family and their amazing accomplishments! "Oh." It was not polite to press the issue, Cream reminded herself. And really - maybe it was all a big coincidence! That was reasonable, right? ...right. She decided to focus on the game, setting her cursor to a Pocky-like character and selecting it. "I'm ready!"
