Pepper and salt didn't talk for about a day, pretty rare for them. 

pepper sat on the couch in the lobby, watching pickle play mariokart with knife and glancing at her phone every few minutes. 

Knife looked over to her and held out the controller. "Wanna play?" He asked. Pepper looked up from her phone and at the controller. She took it and looked over at the tv screen, where pickle was starting the next game.

Pepper picked her character, princess peach, and her vehicle. She just sat awkwardly as pickle took a while to decide. 

"So," knife said, "whats going on with you and salt?" Pepper didn't say anything as the starting music played. 

"I guess we just had a conflict, it shouldn't be a huge deal." She finally said. "I dont think she really cared what suitcase felt, just that someone in the situation liked her." She sighed as she reached 4th in the game. "Then again what does she care about? Me of course, but also fashion, her well being, Oj." She reached 2nd place.

"So what your saying is that shes shallow." Pickle said, not taking his eyes off the game. Pepper leaned back into her chair. "No, of course not, shes my friend."

Pickle thought for a moment. "You know your friends can be flawed, right?" He paused the game and looked over to her. "And its ok to stand up for yourself." Knife added. "I had to tell that same thing to suitcase. Make your presence known."

Pepper looked at them for a moment, then nodded. "Thanks guys. Im not sure what to say."

Knife and pickle looked at each other, than back to her. "No problem." Knife said, leaning against the front of the couch. 

Pickle turned back to the screen and unpaused the game.

"I win!" Pepper shouted after a few minutes.

"Begginners luck." Pickle scoffed. "I want a rematch."

Pepper laughed. "Your on."
