[Mafdet Khepri]

With the help of their kind seniors and teachers Khepri had finally managed to master the art of making ice cream! Not only did it allow them to secure a steady supply of sweet dishes best served cold so long as they had a few cheap ingredients on hand it had also allowed them to get a nice part time job at the Unity Festival working the milkshake stand.

After all, contrary to popular -and Khepri's original- belief milkshakes weren't made with milk and shake. They were made with milk, ice cream and a variety of flavorings or sweeteners! All things that Khepri now had plenty of experience with, something they'd explained in incredible detail to the interviewer until he interrupted them by telling them they had the job. 

Handing over the latest milkshake they'd made they happily turned to face the next costumer.

"Welcome! Oh, senior, it's you! What would you like?"

[attr="class","nikki109"]Even if she was there out of obligation Ylva was pretty content. She had managed to ditch both Misaki and Andy with a big freaking emphasis on ditching Andy. She talked so much that the taste was ruined, even with her specialty milkshake from earlier.[break][break]

So she was back in line at the same stand from before, hoping to get a refill. The first for sure yet definitely not the last. Milkshakes were her only weakness she would ever admit...to anyone who wasn't named Masao Andy. As it was her turn she spoke up before she looked up "Yes, I want one of those hokkaido speci-" she froze. This must have been some sort of sick joke. If she didn't truly love milkshakes more than anything she would have turned and walked away right then and there. Internally, she would sigh, and then break the silence. "Is this a prank?"

"No, this is Khepri," they happily replied. It was nice to see their kind senior here. Khepri hoped she was enjoying herself as much as they were. "The Hokkaido Premium? Would you like extra caramel, senior?" They asked while starting to put the shake together. Before getting this job they hadn't even known it was possible to milk prefectures but apparently this shake was specially made with Hokkaido milk. There was so much left she had to learn, sometimes Khepri just wished they could take in everything they saw with but a glance. They'd be unstoppable.

"Water's flavor is just its temperature. Milkshakes are different, don't you think?" Khepri cheerfully asked her kind senior whose name they definitely remembered. Hmm, what had she replied back then? Khepri's smile widened. A riddle! They loved finding the answers to those. "What name should I write on the cup?" The catbug innocently asked, almost two decades of practice ensuring none of their ignorance shone through in their tone.

[attr="class","nikki109"]Oh good. One of these days. Ylva's expression hardened as she tried her very best to ignore her instinct to leap over the counter and strangle Khepri. Ultimately, she would resign herself. There was an established nonaggression rule for all of Dream World and she couldn't violate that without sacrificing her "good" standing with UAU. [break][break]

"Fine." She took a step to the side to let the next person speak up. Khepri's ramblings were always incoherent, but this one was particularly nonsensical: "What in the hell are you talking about? It's a milkshake, not water." Her annoyance was visible if Andy was the biggest pain in the ass Khepri was a definitive number 2. "Ylva." Idiot.[break][break]

"Flavors," Khepri said with a slight tilt to their head. Was it not obvious that flavors had been the topic? Ah well, they supposed it didn't matter. There were much more important things to do. Things like solving this riddle. Khepri eagerly awaited her reply. Their ears drooped the moment they heard it.

"Oh, your name is Ylva?" They answered sadly before shaking their head to put the thought aside. It was disappointing to have the riddle solved that easily but they supposed not every riddle could be exciting. Otherwise what would make the good ones good? Hmm, that reminded them of another train of thought they'd been having recently. For something to be good was it necessary for something else to be bad? If what was good was what was above the norm and what was bad was what was below the norm did that mean that if the bar was raised what was considered good before would now be bad? Were heroes by trying to make society better actually making people evil? As they finished putting the shake together and opened a new pack of lids so they could get the blending machine get to work Khepri turned back to Ylva. 

"Hey do you think those who act the most righteous are actually making people evil?"

[attr="class","nikki109"]Oh my god. Was their brain broken? It felt like this person was dealing with some sort of brain damage. Who approaches someone for ice cream making and doesn't even learn their first name? Ylva would give another quick glance around, expecting that redwood to be hiding in the crowd. She wasn't sure if she was less or more annoyed by her not being anywhere near.[break][break]

Waiting impatiently for Khepri to finish up, she watched her like a hawk, making sure she didn't do anything stupid or mess up the order. Free or otherwise, she wasn't going to have a quality product be fucked up by this...thing. What was it anyway? A cat? An ant? It was like the universe couldn't decide. "I don't know." she'd pause for a brief second considering who she was dealing with "And I don't care. How much longer?" [break][break]

Khepri was stunned by the revelation. Ylva was right. By caring about such a grand question they were forgetting about the here and now, about all the good they could do by taking things one step at a time until they were ready to truly tackle such grand problems. Their senior was kind indeed. They'd have spent days pondering this on their own if not for her profound statement.

"Almost. And here we go!" Khepri exclaimed with a smile so warm it was amazing the freezer managed to compensate for it. "It's on the house. Well, on me," they explained with an even wider smile. "I've never treated a friend to a milkshake before, this'll be my first time doing so!"

Their tail wagged behind them, almost knocking over a stack of cups as they turned to fetch a straw they hadn't forgotten about, just delayed in handing over. 

"Have a nice day, enjoy yourself and if you have the time don't forget to say hi to a stranger. A small act of kindness can go a long way," Khepri rambled in the tone that any cashier would have recognized as the standard overly friendly voice used for sentences hammered into rote memorization by corporate demands. Which wasn't to say Khepri disagreed with the words of course. They really did hope Ylva would have as nice of a day as they'd been having. Why, their shift had only just begun and already they'd met a friend! Truly, life was be looking up for Khepri.

[attr="class","nikki109"]If Ylva could do anything at that moment it would be to freeze the whole thing and put Khepri into a time capsule with a big stamp that said DO NOT OPEN. It would be so easy to do so given that Khepri was surrounded by frozen equipment and liquid, but unfortunately for Ylva she couldn't do it. Not because of some moral reason she just didn't want to get in trouble by UAU.[break][break]

Ylva's eyes narrowed further as Khepri mentioned it was on her, she didn't want to owe anyone anything let alone someone like this. So she'd pull out her wallet partly in defiance and partly because she wanted to make sure Khepri didn't get the wrong idea of their relationship. "No, I'll pay." She placed the yen on the table before staring back. "We're not friends. I'm a customer." snatching the milkshake out of khepri's hand. She would ignore the advice as she walked away taking a sip. This definitely was a premium milkshake and almost made up for that whole interaction...almost.[break][break]
