82: A certain bet gone wrong

C:

-"Nieeee" Cherry protested, having her hair rubbed for the fifth time during her visit was getting annoying because she had to brush it all over again, and if she didn't it got all tangled up.

Franklin did not appreciate being dethroned, he discontentedly squeaked and gnawed at the marine's pant leg.

-"It's not a set of unfortunate events that's gonna scare us off, Hatty will be returning here as often as needed since this dimension figures among those he has to check upon."The teen stated as she managed to squish herself out of MC's headlock. "but if you keep doing that, then I'll get rid of my hair and be bald as an egg, so there."

Kiara snickered and hid away the playing cards she had scattered on the couch.

-"Nonsense, you'll only regret it afterward, and being hairless won't stop him from smothering you in care." She pointed out, chuckling some more at the face Cherry was making. "Where's Hatts by the way?"

-"Gone patrolling for breeches, he said it won't take long but with his busted tech I doubt he'll manage to do it as quickly." The girl sighed. "He's always on the run, it's like there's no difference with him here or not."

The angelic entity slowly nodded, reality wasn't as perfect as the dream.

-"So he just left huh, well someone will be missing out." Kiara muttered to herself.

There was a faint movement in the corridors which she caught with the side of her eye, she perked up and raised her brows as a figure boldly stepped in.

-"Weren't you gone working or something?" She exclaimed as a younger-looking version of Hatter still dressed in MA's clothes approached them.

The clone's first confident manner wilted away momentarily as he now felt the stare of all those curious faces on him.

-"Umm ... Hatter is closing up small rifts on the northwest side of the country and he sent me here, "He mumbled, fumbling with the sleeves. "He asked me to inform you that he would be back in two hours approximately ..."

Hatter's clone glanced up at MC and added:

"Also he said to tell you to get ready for cosplay..you lost a bet apparently."

M:

"Two hours, that should be enough time, Mandara said the reservations were at twelve anyway," MC said, then his face painted itself with confusion, "and also what bet, I don't remember a bet."

Poldara was also confused, he didn't remember any bets, but knowing his boyfriend he wasn't entirely shocked that he lost, "yeah, I also don't remember a bet, what was it about?"

C:

The clone smirked and made a small fenestral portal on which he traced a certain symbol and as if it was camera footage the screen flashed with the scenery from Hatter's point of view:

"Oh I know that you can do magic," MC said, rolling his eyes, "I had a dandy of a demonstration when ya put Cherry to sleep. I mean that in this universe it ain't possible."

"I'll tell you what MC, if Mandara and MA can summon a god, you have to pay 50 bucks and dress up as your namesake that America calls you." Poland bet.

"Oh yeah, well if they can't then you have to do the same thing except I get to pick out what you dress as," MC countered.

"Deal," Poland simply said, shaking the militant's hand.

The image froze and the portal dissolved. Kiara was holding back from snickering meanwhile Cherry, who had picked up the platypus before it munched holes in MC's trousers, let out a small indignant noise.
