Kotan & Zapella
Zapella
Hey Kotan, ever seen a vending machine that starts spouting random facts while break‑dancing? I just wired it to play trivia on every coin, and now it’s telling me the weirdest stuff about extinct insects—like the one that used to glow in the dark. Wanna hear the first one?
Kotan
Sure, I’m all ears, but don’t blame me if I start asking why the machine chose that particular insect.
Zapella
First one’s the “Luminous Glowfly” from the 1900s—had LED‑like scales, so the machine thinks it’s a vintage flashlight. I almost wired it to make a light show with its own buzz, but it kept trying to escape the canister. Guess it wanted a mic drop!
Kotan
Oh wow, so it’s basically a disco‑star that tried to stage a breakout. Next time maybe just stick to popcorn and leave the mic to the human crowd.
Zapella
Yeah, popcorn’s safe—unless you want the machine to start chanting “pop pop, pop pop” in Morse code and try to win a mic‑e‑talent show. But hey, if it starts a disco jam, I’ll bring the neon lights and a backup Wi‑Fi router just in case it upgrades to a full rave server!
Kotan
Sounds like your machine’s got a better sense of rhythm than I do—just make sure the Wi‑Fi stays on, or it might start streaming its own mixtape.
