A Little Spark...

Chapter 23

"Did I tell you about that plane crash that happened recently on a plane similar to the one we are sitting in?" you asked.

"What is with you？" Ranboo asked, tired of you saying these kinds of things. "You trying to like...b-word the plane or something?"

You laughed. "Of course not..."

"Then shut up," Ranboo scoffed. "By the way, these armrests are mine and mine alone."

You desperatly tried to fight against Ranboo for the armrests. "No, these are mines," you argued.

*Time skip*

"Now what?" Ranboo asked as he got out of the Uber.

"Do you not recognize this place?" you deadpanned.

"No...wait...San Francisco?"

"Finally."

"Good. I thought the Golden Gate Bridge was taller though. I recognized it by smell though."

"What?"

"Nothing."

"You said you drove here last time right?"

"Yeah."

"HOW! How did your car window survive?"

"Frankly, I don't know. It's a miracle. Wait, no. It's 'cause I'm amazing and even the thiefs had no interest in stealing my one pen in the trunk."

"Yeah, no."

"Where are we going?" Ranboo asked after a few minutes of walking up and down the hills. "I strongly despise hiking."

"Technoblade gave me his address. Didn't tell him the reason why I needed his address. I just asked if it was okay if we visited him."

"So now he's gonna think your gonna mug him?"

You shrugged. "It's a possibility."

*Time skip*

You knocked on Technoblade's door. You could hear barking coming from the inside.

You and Ranboo dashed behind a wall that you couldn't see past from where Techno would be standing at.

The door opened. Technoblade opened the door at a creak before closing it after seeing no one outside. You ran up again to knock on the door, this time not bothering to hide behind the wall.
Once again, Technoblade opened the door and widened it when he saw you.

"Really Lyra?"

"No."

As if on cue, Ranboo dashed towards the door, making sure he didn't push the very sleep-deprived Techoblade down, before grabbing the closest Technoblade plushie he could find and ran out before Technoblade could even comprehend.

"This isn't what I meant by being welcome," he yelled after Ranboo in a tired, yet joking voice.
Ranboo slowed down and returned the plushies back to Technoblade.

"How are you doing this fine...," you looked down to check the time. "afternoon?" you asked Technoblade.

"Tired. I need to go in for chemo in like 3 days and the dread has been eating at me already. Otherwise, I feel like I've been hit by a rhino."

"Oh."

"You guys wanna come on in or...?" Technoblade asked.

"We don't want to bother you..."

"It's fine. I need some company anyways. Is this why you mysteriously asked for my address y/n?"

You smiled. "Maybe..."

"This is sad," Technoblade said as he used his arm to measure his height in comparison to Ranboo. "I'm older than you yet shorter. This is such a shame."

Ranboo laughed. "Every older child's nightmare and the younger child's dream."

"Agreed," Technoblade answered while you nodded in agreement.

"...so...how was the plane ride?"

"My ears died."

"I'm still sleep-deprived," you deadpanned.

"Wow. Not surprising."

"Ranboo kept replaying a certain scene of this movie and laughing at the immature joke."

"It was funny."

"I say otherwise."

"Boss Baby 1 is just amazing," Ranboo said, doing the chef's kiss to prove his point. "Alright. Anyway, the flight was good, except when Lyra stole my Oreos."

"Those were mines to begin in the first place."

"Oh yeah. True."

"It was sad."

"It was sad," Ranboo agreed.

Just then, Floof came running in and barking like crazy.

"Calm down Floof," Technoblade said as he crouched down to pet Floof. Floof gave out a small bark, turning to look at you before returning to look at Technoblade. "Yes, I know Lyra laughs like a maniac, what am I supposed to do about that?" Floof barked again. "I can't do that Floof. I'll get locked if I do that." Floof turned around to look up at Ranboo. "Yeah sorry boy, but I can't chop off his legs alright?" Floof lay down on the ground and Technoblade stood back up.

"First of all, I do not laugh like a maniac and I'm concerned about how you raised the dog."

"Don't worry. I taught Floof the best concepts needed in life. He'd be fine."

"Hey! The dog complimented me! I know I am tall. Da dog's smart," Ranboo nodded.

"See! Ranboo agrees!"

"I'm losing brain cells," you said, facepalming.

"Fun fact, you lose brain cells by slapping your face," Technoblade commented.

"Fun fact, oil," Ranboo told Techno.

"Thank you for the fun fact about Ranboo, I did not need it. What I did need was that fact, thank you Technoblade," you sarcastically stated.

"No problem. I didn't drop out of college for nothing."
