All that glitters isn't gold -Inanimate Insanity AU-

-Across the sea, watch the sunset, have you forgiven me yet?-

"Are you really... Going?" MePad asked, cocking an eyebrow.. he felt a swirling mix of emotions inside of him at the idea of.. Floory leaving.

Floory gazed up at him, nodding his head, with a sigh he started to speak up. "Yeah- this island is great and all- but it's not paradise Island.. I feel more connected with the grounds over there plus- it's easier to teleport around.. and my body(?) doesn't ache as much as I do here." The Floor gave reasons in reassurance for MePad, but MePad only felt numb at it..

Sure he was glad for Floory for deciding to go home, Floory had every right to return home and MePad knew that one day the Floor would. However MePad couldn't stop this mixed feeling of disappointment and fear from welling up.

Floory moved closer to MePad's knee, MePad was crouching down at this point to get closer to the face on the ground.

"Though- I can leave a bit better as well- since you aren't living in that cave anymore," Floory chuckled.

"It wasn't that bad," MePad muttered, casting a glance over to the side before meeting Floory's eyes again.

"God- you sound like MePhone when you say that," Floory joked before shaking his face, "anyways- I'm happy I convinced you to get a room in the hotel and hey- you get to share it with a friend! So you won't be alone anymore."

MePad glanced over towards Toilet, who stood there a tad awkwardly, eyeing Floory in both confusion and curiosity. MePad then looked back towards Floory, "yes.. that is fortunate.. however I will miss you."

"Aw- shucks," Floory chuckled, "look mate- I'll visit at times and hey! You can always visit Paradise island yourself!"

"Hmm," MePad hummed in acknowledgement, entertaining the idea, "I.. may take you up on that offer one day."

"I hope so!" Floory smiled, keeping it up before he had to sigh again, now frowning he continued to speak, "look uh- do.. do you know where Taco went off to?"

"No," MePad admitted, "she disappeared a while a go.. but- I'll fine her.. she.. she's got a lot on her mind.."

Floory smiled softly, "..she's lucky to have someone like you care so much about her."

"I wouldn't say that.." MePad muttered, glancing away in embarrassment.

Floory chuckled, shaking his head, "well- I better get going-"

"Wait Groundy??!!" Toilet exclaimed, Floory looked over at him, giving him a questioning stare. "Sorry- just uh- how do you know Mister Phone anyways??"

"It's Floory and uh-" Floory corrected before he quieted up..

The air in the room got a bit awkward after that question. Floory and MePad stared at each other, both cringing at the thought of well- what happened with season three.. and how they haven't explained any of it to Toilet yet.. however MePad couldn't keep Toilet in the dark about it, he's bound to find out and- Toilet should learn of it from him, Toilet shouldn't find out about it from someone else and think MePad maliciously attempted to hide it from him.

"..Toilet.. Floory knows MePhone4 from uh- season three," MePad stated slowly.

Toilet blinked before something clicked in his mind, then his face visibly lit up, "oooh- I once heard the Corn Man talk angrily about Mister Phone running off to a new season! I thought he was talking bonkers! Didn't know it was true!! So was Floory a contestant???"

MePad and Floory shared another glance at each other before Floory opened his mouth to answer, "kinda.. at the start I was but- after my elimination and with me being the whole Island.. I uh- kinda became MePhone's wacky new.. assistant/co-host.." Floory chuckled nervously after stating that, bracing himself for Toilet's reaction.
