>Popcorn is great
>It's cheap, it's tasty, and most importantly for Goose she can actually make it herself
>Get an appropriately sized scoop for the kernels, add a splash of oil to the pot, throw on a lid and wait til it stops popping
>Well after abit of help getting everything out of drawers, she can make it herself. but anyone would need help finding things in someone else's kitchen
>So while Chiclet tries to talk Mike into choosing a more "palatable for everyone" film than the one he's holding, Bonnibel "supervises" the blind hen's popcorn cooking by jumping every time the oil pops alittle too loudly
>Her quiet footfalls muffled further by fluffy pajama slippers get a chuckle out of Goose while she half listens to Mike advocating for what he wants to watch
>To be fair to him, a black and white movie about a dog defending himself in court for his own murder does sound interesting but Chiclet's right that it isn't really "Pajama Night" material.
>From his grumbling tone, Goose reckons that the comedy movie compromise is going through.
>Shame, she'll have to come back to catch the movie with him another time or ambush Mike on his late shift and listen to it play on one of the crappy TVs
>One of the best nights of sleep she's had in ages was when she passed out while he rambled incoherently about framing and practical effects
>More pressing matters emerge than reminiscing however- the popcorn isn't popping anymore
>Goose carefully lifts the pot and turns towards Bonnibel
>"You got the bowl, bunny"
-
>From the way Bonnibel's voice reverbs as she says "Oh right, here" before clinking the rim of the bowl to the pot it's pretty safe to assume she had been using it as a face shield from the popping oil
>Alittle gross, but what does she care as long as the popcorn's hot
>She turns off the stove, god bless it's the same as it is downstairs, and picks up the salt shaker after feeling around for it for a moment, scattering afew dashes out where Bonnibel should have the bowl
>"Alright, popcorn's ready, what are we watchin' tonight?"
>She hears Mike sigh in defeat
>"We're watching Clunk tonight after all. You two go sit down, I'll tell Freddy it's all ready."
>Aw hell yeah. Goose LOVES Clunk.
