"You can predict when a cream pie will hit you?"

"In two minutes."

"OK. Wait in the next room."

The officer looked at the next applicant.

"You a mimic? You look just like-"

"My twin."

"Ah. Says here you can materialise cream pies?"

@MicroSFF The officer stared as the next applicant was brought in. "You have to be kidding me? Out!"

The mimic sighed under its creamy crust. It had gone to such trouble to be the trolley too. This was ever the way.

@MicroSFF I'm not proud of the fact that it took me a few seconds to realize that this is just playing on innocent slapstick themes.
