War: “Cabin Wars! At least three people in your cabin have to collaborate to create a short story of at least 800 words. You have 24 hours, or else lose 1000 points.”

Participants: Brave, Eevee, Gee

Format: Eevee, Gee, Brave, and so on

Ideas: I was thinking we shouldn't really have an idea, and “go with the flow”. That way, you can interpret the writing into different ways

Anyone can start below ^

800 words is around 250+ words for each person ^^ (if we're doing exactly 3 people, 4 people would be 200 for each)
I'm just going to make this an SWC fanfic to make it a bit easier for anyone who wants to join in.

(Eevee - she/her ; Brave - she/her ; Gee - they/them)

Eevee looks at the clock above the refrigerator, wiping her forehead. The clock reads 8 o'clock; she's been there for about 2 hours now and the kitchen heat was getting to her. Turning around, she sees another walking in through the doorway. “Oh, hey Brave!” she waves as her fellow intern comes in. Brave sets her bag down on the table and goes to the closet to put on her orange apron.
“What are you working on?” Brave asks, crouching down to look at the oven door, “A cake, I assume?” She taps the door, pointing at the cylindrical pan shown through the clear oven door.
Eevee nods, sighing, “I've been trying to get the mango mousse cake right, but I just can't seem to perfect it. I should just stick with genoise cakes.” Eevee shakes her head. “On another note, I went to the store to get some mangoes for the cake. If the cake doesn't come out well, we could just have the mangoes. Actually, I made sure to get extras, just because.”
“Mangoes always cheer people up, as I always say,” Brave whistles, getting up. “You put them in the fridge, right?”
Eevee smiles, “Of course, in the special mango compartment as always.”
“Uh huh, got it!” Brave pulls out 2 mangoes from the refrigerator in one hand and pushes her free arm against the door to close it.
Footsteps come from behind. “Early morning practice, huh?” a feminine voice comes from the door.
“Good morning, Sous Chef Gee!” Eevee banters to her friend, grinning. She goes to the fridge to get out another mango.
Brave waves to Gee. “We're about to make some smoothies if you would like one.”
“Mango smoothies?” they ask, as if the answer was obvious, “In this restaurant, it's always a yes for me.”
“Great!” Brave beams, going to pull out some ingredients from the pantry.

Gee grabs the rather hefty blender out of the cabinet. They try their best not to drop the blender on the ground. “I forgot how heavy this thing is.” They tap on the larger-than-normal blender.
“I can only imagine.” Eevee lets out a low whistle.
“What is its volume?” Brave inquires in a tone of sheer disbelief about how gigantic the blender is.
“I am not even sure.” Gee laughs.
Everyone starts piling ingredients into the blender.
“Did you hear about the last disappearance?” Eevee asks.
“Uh…Um…” Gee starts.
“So you haven’t?” Brave says.
“No! I mean yes!?” Gee says quickly.
Eevee stays quiet. She knows that Gee is lying but she knows that they would deny it. Deny everything. Gee pretends to become suddenly interested in their iced tea.
“Can I speak to Gee alone for a second?” Eevee makes eye contact with Brave and Gee.
“Ok, sure.” Brave shrugs.
Eevee pulls Gee into the doorway. “I know you are lying.”
“No, you don't!” Gee exclaims defensively.
“Mmm, yes, yes I do. I have seen you lie a billion times. You always do the same thing. You stutter and fail to make eye contact.”
“Ok, ok you caught me, but we can't let Brave know anything is up.” Gee sighs deeply.
“I heard my name?” Brave peeks her head into the doorway.
“Um…We were just….We were just…er.” Gee chuckles nervously.
“We were just saying that you make the best custards.” Eevee swoops in and saves the day from a potential disaster.
“Aw, thanks.” Brave smiles.

She knows something's up, but stays silent, anyway. Another suspicious thing is that the last time she made custard was two sessions ago.
As they all make it back to the kitchen, awkwardness starts to kicks in.
After a few moments of silence, Eevee stares at Brave, her brown wide open, as if instructing her to break the awkward silence.
Brave understands immediately. “So,” She thinks of what to say, turning to the blender. “Let me add the milk and then we can blend it.” She awkwardly walks to the fridge and takes the jug out, pouring a good amount inside the blender.
“Yeah, I-” Gee is immediately interrupted by the blending of the smoothies. Instead, they take 3 smoothie mugs out from the dishwasher.
When the smoothies are ready to drink, the final colour is light pink-red, most likely from the strawberries.

Eevee starts to pour the freshly made smoothie into the smoothie jugs. “Ugh!” she exclaims as she rapidly rips a sheet of paper towel to clean up the mess she made.
“It's a good thing you had your apron on,” Gee half-jokes, wiping the counter.
Brave hands another handful of paper towels to Eevee.
The trio quietly cleans the mess up, before walking to the table with a mug in each of their hands.
“So,” Brave says slowly, tapping her pointer finger to her mug.
“I guess, we could have our smoothies now,” Eevee chuckles.
“Mmm…” Gee gulps down their smoothie. “Smoothies are the best morning drink.”
Brave agrees, nodding her head, “Yeah.”
Eevee grins, taking another sip from her smoothie. It looks like this day wasn't going to go too bad after all.
