Free ice cream! [open]

[hack-rat.livejournal.com]

 Alex sat beneath the shade of a large tree in a decent sized park. Those familiar with New York might recognize the sky scrapers in the distance, even if they didn't recognize the park itself.  Parked on a small service road was an ice cream truck with a merry vendor, who claimed that it was customer appreciation day, and was thus giving ice cream away for free.

Alex was already enjoying a chocolate and strawberry cone covered in sprinkles and caramel syrup, wondering if anyone would bother showing up to spend time with him, or even be interested in sensorium ice cream in the first place.

Either way, Alice seemed thrilled, as she pulled what appeared to be pink chocolate chips from a jar labelled "Yogis".  Reaching out to pet Alice, Alex laughed a bit, "Don't get used to eating s-so many." sensorium food might not mess with her health, but once they got home, it would be the real thing once again. He figured that she deserved the treat as much as he deserved the ice cream anyway.

Alex smiled a bit wider, "Y-you have no idea h-how much I'd love if sh-she did. I'm d-doing all I c-can ta make sure she does."

"Seems like you're taking good care of her so far." Not that she actually knew at all, but it seemed like the nice thing to say if nothing else.

Alex could guess that she didn't know, since she said she wouldn't be surprised if Alice made it another five years. Someone who knew rats well would know that would be an amazing lifespan for a rat. He smiled anyway, still cheered by her words. "Th-thanks."

Noticing that Alice had climbed up to Cagalli's shoulder and begun to groom her hair a bit he chuckled. "She seems ta r-really like you."

Cagalli's not exactly an expert, no - optimistic, though, she can definitely do. She reached up to pet Alice lightly. "I'm usually not this good with animals, y'know."
