Clang, bang, crash !
A certain someone had used his skill of apparitions to transport into the kitchen, successfully knocking over a hazardous pile of pots and pans. " Oh, that's not good... " he said nervously. The man tip toed away from the mess, simply leaving it. Instead, he went back to his quest of finding his lover ( other than Sel ; well, he wishes she was ) -- peanut butter. He clambered onto the kitchen trailer's counter top. Even though he was exceptionally tall, he found this more...convenient? Who are we kidding, he's like a two year old. He thinks it's fun.
Lafayette opened each cabinet door to inspect them. He repeated peanut butter, peanut butter over and over in his head. It was a fairly recent invention, and he was already in love with it. It truly is the food of bachelors, and the feast of kings. " Aha ! " In the middle cabinet, he found it. Laffy gingerly plucked it from the not-so-neatly organized shelf. Henrietta tried, she really did. But the other members of Melange...are not so keen on cleaning. Laffy, for example. Anyways. With his newly acquired lover, he went from crouching on his knees on top of the counter, to sitting on his butt on the counter. Classy.
His fingers meticulously examined the jar. He turned it one way, then the other. It still didn't open. " Righty tighty, left loosey... " he muttered. Lafayette proceeded to twist it to the left with all his little might, his little noodles of arms shaking. It still didn't open. Now, for more struggling. How about verbal abuse?
" AAAGHSLKHRB OPEN YOU FOOL ! "
...Lafayette usually wasn't allowed in the kitchen. Because they always find him twitching on the floor, cuddling his peanut butter. but this time, this time...he will put up a fight!

A young woman with peculiar red hair lay sprawled face-down in the grass a few meters away from the rickety kitchen trailer; having not moved a single centimeter from where she had crashed the previous night. To anyone that didn't know Seline Kaden (or Sel), it might appear that she was recovering from an alcoholic night, but this was not the case. Sel simply stayed up until nearly dawn and then found a particularly comfortable looking patch of grass or dirt before collapsing on it, like she does nearly every night of her life. Sound asleep, the young woman flipped over and began snoring.
Clang, bang, crash!
Choking on a snore, Sel's eyes shot open and she bolted upright. Blinking hard a couple of times to un-blur her vision, she glanced at the kitchen trailer, comprehended the sound that rudely awoke her to be a very inconsiderate pile of pots, and then flopped back to the ground. She shut her eyes and fell back asleep within seconds, resuming her unladylike snoring with great pleasure for approximately three more minutes before...
" AAAGHSLKHRB OPEN YOU FOOL ! "
Not bothering to sit up, Sel slowly opened her eyes, stared up at the sky for a second with an expression of Oh, why? before fluidly getting to her feet. Picking up a napping snake and draping it around her neck, she strolled over to the trailer and slowly pushed the door open as far as it would go; which wasn't very far, since the pile of pots had apparently fallen against the door.
Seline peeked through the crack and discovered Lafayette in his usual wrestle with the peanut butter jar. She watched for a couple seconds, hoping that he maybe had magically gained enough muscles overnight to open the darn thing for once, but to no avail. Rolling her eyes affectionately, she knocked on the door.
" Lafayette, can you please move the pots and let me in?"
She said in an almost sing-songy tone of voice, successfully hiding a chuckle.
[WEELLLLL. LOOKIE THAR. I REPLIED.]

The door attempted to move a few inches. Occupied with the peanut butter, Lafayette ignored it. But then, he heard a certain knock, knock, knocking.
" Lafayette, can you please move the pots and let me in? " a familiar feminine voice called. ' Sel! ' Lafayette rejoiced in his head happily. Keeping the peanut butter jar safely in tote, he tucked it under his arm. The man then snapped his fingers, moving the pots and pans in an instant. On second thought, why not be a gentleman? While he was at it, Laffy did a certain twirl of his pointer finger, and opened the door for the lovely lady. Then it occurred to him that she may not be happy with him sitting on the kitchen counter, and slid off.
" Sel! " he rejoiced. " Oh, hello, love! It's such a terrible tragedy! " Laffy said, caking on the drama like a stage girl's makeup. The blonde man quickly made his way over to her, stepping over pots and pans as he went. Better pick those up later.
He bent down to her eye level, being taller than her. " Sel, love... " Laffy began, putting on a puppy face. " Could you kindly open this for me? " There, he asked it. The request that was made at least twice a week. Save the day and open the peanut butter. He could use his magic, but didn't want Sel to know that he...well...performed said magic. He was pretty sure she still believed he simply used illusions, or simple magic at most. Not, you know, dark magic that he used. He hoped she didn't see him move the pots and pans.
" Someday, I'll become strong enough to open it! I promise! " he whimpered.

Seline looked away from the crack for a second; catching an escaping snake waiting for the man to let her in; and was slightly surprised when the door opened only a few seconds after she had knocked. Her puzzlement was forgotten when she stepped through the doorway and caught sight of Lafayette performing one of her pet peeves-sitting on the counter. Before she could open her mouth and say anything, he had slid off, so instead of giving him a lighthearted lecture, she let him off the hook with one of her eyebrow-raised 'looks'. The mockingly stern expression melted into a smile a second later when he greeted her joyfully.
"Sel!"
After all, how can you not be happy when someone is so glad to see you, even if it was because of the fact that you were strong enough to open peanut butter jars?***
" Oh, hello, love! It's such a terrible tragedy! "
Sel stifled a snort at the overflowing drama in his voice, watching him with an amused glint in her golden eyes as he quickly made his way through the mess of pots. When he arrived in front of her, she looked up at him with an expectant expression, waiting for the begging that was sure to come in a few moments. Her eyes narrowed when Lafayette leaned down to her level and she immediately blew sharply in his face, non-verbally telling him to please STANDBACKUPI'MNOTANANT. After the blow, her face returned to its former expression.
" Sel, love... "
She nonchalantly held her hand out, not bothering to wait for the actual question.
" Could you kindly open this for me? "
" But of course, my dear weakling. " Seline answered in a friendly teasing tone of voice, taking the jar from his feminine hands. She placed her left hand atop the lid and easily twisted it open in one movement. " Here you are. Don't eat it all at once and make yourself sick again, please! " Sel said in a cheery voice, handing the jar back.
She looked up into his grey-green eyes, searching for an indication of guilt. The young woman had began to notice little things about Lafy; little odd things that didn't really mean anything, such as the pots being moved very quickly even though he was still on the other side of the room.
" Someday, I'll become strong enough to open it! I promise! "
Her suspicious thoughts were interrupted, and she blinked rapidly a few times, bringing herself to her senses. She laughed lightly and replied in her teasing sing-song voice, " Of course you will, Laffy. Maybe when snakes fly? " Sel grinned and slid behind him, quickly placing one of her precious snakes around his shoulders. As she stood there for a moment, a little thought poked at her mind. " What are you thinking, Seline Kaden? If the man could use actual magic, he wouldn't be begging you to open his peanut butter twice a week!" That settled her suspicions for the moment, and she slid back around to face him.
[OOC: ***Sel doesn't realize he's in luuuv with her x3]
