((Moving forward with mechanical breakfast chaos!))
It had every potential to be an interesting debate how exactly the Decaf family managed to have quite such an colorful array of patchwork foals with interesting talents, and then to adopt one no less patchwork and no less quirky... as demonstrated the morning that Wicked Stitch decided to make breakfast.
Well...
The morning that Wicked Stitch made a machine to make breakfast. The muffled noises of it's construction may have helped contribute to waking those who he had been working to surprise (and trying not hard to wake) but if it didn't, the wafting scent of hot pancake batter and further muffled clanks and quiet clunks were there to help coax the Decaf family out of bed.
He muttered anxiously to himself as the unusual contraption of pipes and gears, spatulas and pitchers creaked and twisted, measuring out dollops of pancake batter onto a buttered griddle, letting them cook, and flipping them with a spatula that was hooked up to a set of timers, one to flip them, one to take the cooked pancakes off the griddle to make room for the next batch and stack them on a serving tray.
So far nothing had gone wrong. SO FAR. And he was pretty pleased with this given the few times his ideas had actually become reality instead of a partially constructed beast recycled by someone who didn't know what it was, or just a sketch in his mind.

Nevermore appeared in the kitchen and was staring at the machine, mouth dropped in awe as it made pancakes. Her mane and tail were all mussed and bags hung under her eyes. Wisp had spent the whole night excitedly chattering about what to do with or show Wicked the next day that the filly had hardly slept and wished that the voodoo part of her sister was her mouth and not her leg.
She was awake now though and whoa...
"MOOOOOM! DAAAAD! COME SEE THE NEAT THING WICKED MADE!" She darted up, catching a fresh pancake before it hit the plate, rolled it up and started chewing on it in mid air. "Mmmm..tasty.."
Royal Blossom appears in the kitchen, in even worse disheveled state then her daughter. Her extremely long hair was sticking up in places and uncoiling from the large braid she'd thrown it up in at bedtime. Yawning, she looked between the two foals and only registered the stack of pancakes because Nevermore was eating one.
"Oh yes, he's made pancakes, that is a lovely gesture..." she mumbled pleasantly, yawning again. Her eyes caught the actual contraption and her mouth gaped, though the yawn stopped.
"....BRU! BRU COME DOWN HERE AND SEE THE NEAT THING WICKED MADE!"

Willow Wisp was wide-awake in the early hours, still excited about all the possibilities of having another colt in the house. She was magically brushing her mane when she heard the call to come down. Upon arrival she was awestruck at the contraption that Wicked made, watching it flip pancakes about. She was fast to come up close to it, her eyes following the way the machine poured the batter. “I want chocolate chips in mine! Can we add chocolate chips?”
Bru was not really a morning phony, like his son. His nights were spent winding down from a highly caffiened day, which meant he was usually awake at odd hours. So Bru normally spent his morning in a zombie like state until he managed to get his first cup of coffee, then it would be smooth sailing from there. On this occasion was no different. He lumbered into the kitchen, barely cognoscente of what was going on. His eyes were barely open, and his wings down. It wasn’t until he heard the sound of a griddle sizzling that he faintly noticed what was going on. “Mmm… smells delicious, that’s grand.”
But when it hit him, it was like a zing. “What on earth!?” He took in the sight, not sure what to make of the thing in his kitchen. “… this….. this is ingenius! Wicked Stitch, when did you have time to do this?”
Ruriska One more each? make it count!

Nev did something she only really ever did around her family, she smiled. A real smile, not just one of those smile like motions she often faked to end a conversation. Wicked was one of them now, this amazing breakfast just cemented it even more. While Wisp and the adults gushed over the machine, Nev took two pancakes from the pile, rolled them up and stepped back, stuffing one into's Noble's mouth.
"Smile brother, this is a happy time. And besides, there is always the attic.." she said, alluding to her brother's sudden roommate. "And it's good for Wisp.." Nevermore hoped that her sister would find a similarly strong and close bond with Wicked as she had with Noble. It was a good thing and Noble needed to peek from behind his mask and see that.
Royal Blossom smiled and leaned against Bru and nuzzled into his neck. She wondered if Spica had felt this sense of warmth in her chest the first time she watched her little foundling making themselves at home. Wicked was smiling and he seemed to have a sparkle in his eyes he didn't have when he arrived the evening before. It had happened suddenly sure, but in her heart it felt..right. Like it was a thing they were meant to have done.
"Nev, start slicing some fruits. Wisp, find the chocolate chips and then get some plates and silverware, Noble, start laying out the syrup, jams and such.." Wicked had gone through a LOT of trouble to make the pancakes, she would have every garnish and topping they had available for them. She walked forward and nuzzled Wicked's cheek. "Thank you for breakfast my little Stitch.."
Ruriska I look forward to each and every scrap of trouble and situation our two little dark souls get into! <3
zippedsiren This would have never happened without your fantastic entry into the Halloween contest! Thank you so much! I look forward to the bond between Royal and Bru getting stronger and to Decaf 2.0! <3
Ryuthulhu This has been so great! I am so happy for Wicked Stitch and I am really honored you'll be growing him along with the rest of us! Welcome to the family! <3
