Dinner and Movie (Otherwise Untitled)
#239 of Short Stories
A kobold and a Synth eat in.
~ The kobold was busy scampering around in his kitchen while Bell shuffled his way along the bookshelf in the main room that now smelled of the Synth's bakery. While he was mixing in the diced peppers into the skillet, his boyfriend lumbered somewhat clumsily from the main room to the kitchen to hold up the box of a video disc using the arm that was still attached.
~ With the playful grin that came when the Synth lacked confidence and a tone amplified to speak over the rattling of his arm in the dishwasher, "How about this one? It's got a cockatiel who breaks into banks!"
~ His own tone yelled over the clanking of the dishwasher full of arm, the kobold replied in turn, "I'm almost done in here; go ahead and get it started getting through the trailers.", the kobold's focus remaining on the Synth's tail as he hobbled back into the main room with an imbalanced gait.
