2nd Keychain; Video

[keybearing]

[Really. This is probably hardly a surprise to anyone who knows Sora even remotely well. But Normie had to mention Gummi Bears and of course Sora had to try them. Perhaps a few too many of them. Now he's sitting at his bed and complaining over a stomachache.]

It huuuuurts. I think I ate too many of those gummi things. Gummi bears. But they were so good.....

[The agony of his life and choices right now. Actual not-really five year old Sora.]

Anyone know anything that'll help?

Oh no. I've been there. [Many times. Many more times since ending up here without adult supervision.]

My dad made me drink flat ginger ale when I got stomachaches and that kinda worked!

[keybearing]

[Well when Riku is the most if not currently all his supervision at present. Of course Sora gets into trouble somehow, however minor this might be in comparison to his adventures to different worlds back home.]

Ginger ale? I could try it. But it has to be flat, without the fizzy?

[fastballspeciaaaaal]

Yeah, 'cause the bubbles can make you burp, and then if your sick and you burp... [She'll let him fill in the blank himself on that one.] Not fun.

You have to stir it a bunch! And warm it up in the microwave a bit, I think.

[Mabel knows this pain. Mabel knows it all too well.]

You just gotta ride it out! How many did you have?

[keybearing]

I don't know.....I lost count? There's gotta be something that'll help. I don't think I'm really sick from it, it just hurts.

[What happens when you bring in teenagers without adult supervision, really. Diet what healthy diet. Try all the new things. Immediately regret this decision.]

[glitterateur]

Uhh-- at home my mom has the pink stuff? But since I got here I haven't ever gotten any of that. [Because her sugar tolerance is so absurdly high it might as well be another superpower.]

Just hang on to the toilet for the rest of the day until you feel better.

[keybearing]

I'm not throwing up or anything. Not yet anyway. It just hurts. I don't think I realized how many I had until it started giving me a stomachache.

[He's more used to seafood and the like, living on the Islands back home. Not so much the candy and such available here so readily.]

audio;

[112ounces]

Yeah, it starts out as a stomachache. But it'll happen when you least expect it, so you better know a short cut to the bathroom.

[ Carl didn't have much of candy either - it expired or gotten eaten up by other people or wildlife, and he ate mostly game animals and vegetables that were sad attempts at gardening. And if not that, then expired canned foodstuffs. ]

A variety of teas will help that out! Chamomile, lemon, mint, ginger root…you could also try rice water, but it doesn't taste as good as tea does.

Tea? Like at Wonderland? I've never really actually tried it before. I'd need to see if we even have any here in the kitchen.

[Honey, come help explain this plz.]

[honeyxlemon]

[ Wonderland..? She immediately thinks of story, and simply nods. ] Yeah! It's super easy to make. All you need to do is boil some water, pour it in a mug, and let a teabag soak in it for a few minutes. [ She'll explain loose leaf tea another day. ]

[sidecars]

Baking soda and water, pal! That'll get the gas up.

Anytime I ate too much candy, my ma'd force me to drink it. I mean, I'll be honest with you, it tastes awful, but you'll get results!

[keybearing]

Baking soda? Really? I hadn't thought of that. If it works, I don't mind if it tastes gross.

[sidecars]

Then you're a true blue trooper! Hold your nose while you toss it back, that'll help.

And don't add too much water! Just enough to get everything back in a few gulps. No need to string it out...

[ This is one act of childish frivolity he's not actually all that familiar with. When he was younger he's pretty sure he probably went through this, but as far as he can remember he just waited it out. He didn't really have anyone to help him out back then, after all.

He does have one question though. ]

What's a gummy bear?

video

[keybearing]

It's these...lollies? They're all squishy and different colours and shaped like bears!

[Pretty much. Just sugar. Yup. But soooo good!]

video

[booyahh]

[ Traci just looks amused. Flat out amused. ]

Just live with it, it'll pass eventually and you may never want another gummi bear again.

video

[keybearing]

I will. Probably. Just not.....no more today at least.

[And watch him eventually do this exact same with whatever treat he next discovers. Likely.]

u gotta eat like a hundred more

desensitization is the key.

[keybearing]

Pretty sure that would just make it worse. Not sure that logic applies here with this particular situation.

[oathkeeping]

How many did you eat?! [Sheesh.] You might want to barf and get it over with.

Re: video;

[keybearing]

I don't know. I lost count.......

But ah. Maybe. That usually does help you feel better, right? I'm just not sure it's that bad and not just something I should wait out when it's just a stomachache.

[resipiscent]

Drink some water?

[keybearing]

I am. I just figured it was worth asking around. I didn't mean to eat so much...
