Just your typical everyday badass
Bailey O'Hara
Bailey woke up with his head pounding. Last thing he remembered, Marcella had electrocuted him and Asher started carrying him. Sometime after that, he fell completely unconscious and woke up in a white room, his regular jacket and boots replaced by a weird hospital gown and a pair of really comfy socks. Bailey resolved to keep the socks after this, they were way too soft to just give up. He pulled off the wires that were attached to him, and the heart monitor at his bedside flatlined.
As he had never really seen a heart monitor, or a hospital for that matter, Bailey looked around his room and saw a little tray of food, specifically with a small cup of sweet smelling custard. The cup said pudding on the side, and when he took his first bite he fell in love. He inhaled the cup of chocolate pudding, and immediately wanted more. Nearly breaking down the door of his room, he walked down the hallway looking for more pudding. There were some doctor guys telling him to "go back to your room" and "you shouldn't be walking" but he didn't care. Nothing made Bailey feel better quite like a nap, and from the way he was feeling he definitely took a pretty long one. After a few more minutes of wandering, he found a nurse walking down the hall with a cart giving food to patients. Bailey saw that the stuff on this cart was for the people in the rooms who were looking pretty injured. He needed more though, so he asked.
"Excuse me, where do you keep all the pudding stuff?"
"excuse me?" she replied, confused.
"the sweet stuff. The chocolatey pudding custard stuff." Bailey had gotten very close to her unintentionally...he was just too excited to get his hands on more of the sweet stuff.
"we keep it in the fridge in the kitchen...? Just get away from me I have to get back to work."
"The kitchen, eh? Alright pudding, I will see you soon enough."
Bailey walked further down the hall and found a set of stairs. He must have been pretty high up, because the stairs extended a while down. It would be too much work to climb down them all, so Bailey just increased his density and dropped down to the bottom. When he landed, although there was a pretty decent sized crash and a crater in the floor, the structure was entirely sound, so Bailey just meandered through the building until he found the cafeteria, where there were people serving food. He figured the pudding would be in the kitchen, but to get in there he would need to be quiet. Quiet as a mouse. He lowered his density so he was absolutely silent, and crept around the workers in the hospital. Growing up in the woods, he had lots of practice not getting spotted by things. Normally it meant death, but in this instance the stakes were infinitely higher. It was pudding or death. He waited until the door was clear and crept into the kitchen, looking for the fridge. To his left, he saw a group of cooks looking over at him suspiciously, and Bailey looked around for a distraction. To his right, he saw a rack with a chefs coat, and thinking on his feet he put it on and walked further into the kitchen, trying not to draw too much attention. Unfortunately for Bailey, someone noticed that he wasn't wearing pants, and came to ask him what was going on.
"Hey, what are you doing here? Who are you? Where are your pants?" asked the chef, perplexed.
Bailey looked around for an answer to his questions, and came up with nothing. He backed up slowly and felt the cold metal hit his hands. It was the fridge! He just needed to get in there.
"Oh would you look at that, I left them at home...isn't that great? Hehehehe...look over there what's burning on the stove?!"
The chef turned around to look at the stove, and Bailey leaned back, nervous and beyond mortified. He wished he could just melt through the wall. He closed his eyes and suddenly, he took a step back. And another. And another. When he opened them, he was inside a cold room, vegetables and meat all around him.
"what the hell? Did I just go through the door? But I didn't smash it? What is happening?!?!"
Dozens of questions buzzed through Bailey's mind, until he found the boxes. An entire wall covered in boxes labeled pudding. Stars filled Bailey's eyes as he took down the first box. It was taped shut extra tightly, and it was filled to the brim with delicious pudding. There was a problem though. If Bailey broke the box, he would break the pudding. He had to be extra gentle, but how could he reach into the box without breaking it? An idea came to his mind, and he concentrated all his density magic into his hand, making it less dense than the box. He reached in, and his hand phased right through. When he pulled it out, he held a cup of beautiful chocolate pudding. He didn't even need a spoon, he just dove right in. And so, Bailey pulled each pudding cup out of the box individually, and ate all of its rich, sugary, thick, chocolatey deliciousness. After about seventy cups...Bailey began to feel woozy, both from exhaustion of using his magic, and eating seventy cups of chocolate pudding. So, with a chocolate covered face, Bailey O'Hara of Sabertooth fell asleep after eating seventy cups of pudding, and learned a new ability in the process. Marcella and Asher were probably gonna be mad at him for not sharing, but he couldn't help himself, pudding was just too good.
