[ it isn't broken YET and that is what matters. but he holds a hand out for the box, because he is not enough of a little bitch to take it from her without permission. ]
[ once he has it in hand, he presses on it, hard-- and somehow another part of the puzzle pops up, even tho wooden puzzles probably don't do that, solely so it's funny ]
[ it's been like thirty comments of them failing to open one(1) box so i'm gonna throw our idiots a bone and say it just pops right open so something happens in this thread
but i am also going to say that the combined pressure and it opening means the box just fucking flies out of their hands like a strained rubber band, no matter how implausible it is, For The Joke ]
--Aaaaand hopefully whatever was in it wasn't breakable.
"Stephen King"? [ he's not public domain yet disney doesn't own him. who is he. ] Yeah, my box is pretty much identical. Think it'll work the same way?
[ ha ha HA HA... FUNNY THAT....................... ]
Maybe I'll put it in the library. [ but... she has some attachment to it. Maybe. ]
Right! [ She grabs the drawer and pulls and--- it. doesn't seem to move. for a moment. because that's she's grabbing tighter and giving the drawer a stubborn determine yank and--
-- there they both go. Drawer and Miki, topping over. One of them yelps. It's not the drawer. ]

I can give it a shot?
no subject
[ she hands it over without any real argument. ]
Please do. It might just need a bit more strength behind it to get it open - but it seems like it's a pressure thing?
no subject
Is... that supposed to happen?
[ why is he asking miki ]
no subject
Maybe?
Sometimes the puzzle is getting something open without a lock in and of itself. So it's about shifting pressure and the material itself.
...
I think.
no subject
[ it's too late because that's what he's doing ]
no subject
[ Right?? ]
What if I tried pulling part of it when you press in? It could be like a little drawer or something in there.
no subject
[ this is absolutely not necessary, but this is what they are doing now because we say anything goes on this wooden box. ]
Alright, you count us down, then I'll push and you'll pull. Ready?
[ this is a PUZZLE, YOU IDIOTS ]
no subject
Okay! [ She's just. Getting her hands ready to try and give this a pull and FREE THE BOX if she can. ]
Ready when you are!
no subject
Ready. Let's do this!
[ and then he is going to PUSH I GUESS this is incredible...y stupid ]
no subject
it feels like something's shifting?? maybe? or are they just straining like idiots being defeated by a tiny little box? ]
no subject

no subject
Ah--!
[ she watches as it goes sailing across the room, a little helpless. but there's no shattering or breaking sound, so? this is positive? ]
Doesn't sound like it. Hold on -- [ She's running over and grabbing the box, tugging at the drawer and--
oh. ]
It's a book.
[ It's Miki of course it's a fucking book. But it's specific book, one that she takes a long, hard look at, before setting it down. ]
One down. Yours is the same, right?
no subject
"Stephen King"? [ he's not public domain yet disney doesn't own him. who is he. ] Yeah, my box is pretty much identical. Think it'll work the same way?
no subject
[ ... ] You can read it if you want.
Might as well give it a go, right? [ C'mon. They're veterans now. ]
no subject
What's it about?
[ but, more importantly, it's time to open this fucking box? so axel brings out his own ]
Okay, so let's just do the same exact thing an' see where that goes.
no subject
The end of the world. Or what happens after it.
[ She looks at Axelea's box, before nodding. ] Alright. You push it, I'll tug the drawer thing out.
[ READY CAP'N. ]
no subject
Think I'll pass. I don't like those stories too much.
[ he's lived it, after all! ha ha. anyway wow time to push and pull a drawer now!! READY ]
Okay... go!
[ becks gets to decide what happens to the box this time ]
no subject
[ ha ha HA HA... FUNNY THAT....................... ]

no subject
Lea just kind of stares dumbfounded for a second, literally gaping.
oh right small child fell over ]
H-hey, you alright there, Miki? [ he comes over to look at her ] I think you went at it too hard.
no subject
She sits up, rubbing at the back of her head. ]
Ow. [ Mrrrrrrrr... ] Maybe. But it's definitely open now, at least.
no subject
a stick. ]
Ah.
no subject
-- Is that a popsicle stick?
no subject
... Yeah...
no subject
