COOKING SHOW - 11AM PST - Taisho Roman Revolution

[idolpro]

[ Your unit-colored kitchen has all the basic necessities for cooking, but strangely, there's no refrigerator. There's just a table full of pebble-sized crystals. . . There are candies available in bins next to the crystals as well.

Though you can technically turn the stove on, you can't actually hurt yourself on it. It's like the flames are illusions. Huh.

Upon entering your unit-colored kitchen, you'll find that you can't see or hear anyone from any other kitchen. You're aware that this whole area is magically sight- and sound-proofed; no other unit will hear or see any conversation you have. ]

INSTRUCTIONS & RECIPE

[idolpro]

Today, you are making Simple Omelet! You will need the following ingredients:

• Eggs (1 sour, 1 salty, 1 savory)
  
• Cream Cheese (1 sweet, 1 sour, 1 savory)
  
• OPTIONAL: Onions (1 sweet, 2 bitter)
  
• OPTIONAL: Tomatoes (1 sweet, 1 sour, 1 savory)
  
• OPTIONAL: Garlic salt (2 salty, 1 bitter)

(Optional ingredients are there in case people show up late—they will otherwise not affect your score.)

Total Required (not including optional):

• 1 Sweet (happiness/excitement)
  
• 2 Sour (embarrassment/shame)
  
• 1 Salty (sadness/regret)
  
• 0 Bitter (anger/bitterness)
  
• 2 Savory (adrenaline/fear)

On the tables are pebble-sized crystals. Hold a handful of the crystals and share your memory (through talking or memoryshare candies) and the crystals will turn into that food!

Characters are aware that the cooking process will be done with guidance, so all they need to worry about are the ingredients. Tasteless ingredients such as flour and cornstarch will be provided for them, so those ingredients are not listed.

There are no rounds, nor any discussion headers. Please make a toplevel with every new memory/memory discussion. At 4 hours, please turn in the survey.

DISCUSSION

[time5kip]

... Please tell me either of you remember something embarassing or shameful.

Re: DISCUSSION

[edensresurrection]

Not... off the top of my head.

Re: DISCUSSION

[auguryofinnocence]

I say we don't even participate, I doubt any horrible punishment is going to befall the losers of this one.

1 Sweet (Happy Memory)

[edensresurrection]

[ Gaia picks up a candy. ]

Very well, let's get this started.

[ here to 2:02:53

Gaia is sitting at a table with another girl about the same age, one with long red hair and clear blue eyes. There's a plate of coffee biscuits between the two of them, and Gaia smiles as she takes a bite of one. The redheaded girl grins. ]

Ryne: "Mmm! Delicious, aren't they?"

[ A slow smile spreads on Gaia's face. ]

Gaia: "These are actually quite good."

[ The redhead looks pleased with that response. ]

Ryne: "See? Let's have another one. Half each?"

[ She splits a coffee biscuit in half, handing the other half to Gaia. Gaia extends her hand to take it and the memory fades. ]

Re: 1 Sweet (Happy Memory)

[time5kip]

[ That is surprisingly cute ]

Looks like you do remember the important things.

Re: 1 Sweet (Happy Memory)

[untiltheend]

How wholesome, miss Gaia.

Re: 1 Sweet (Happy Memory)

[auguryofinnocence]

[Oh. That does feel nice.]

You managed to get away with something good.

1 Savoury (adrenaline)

[untiltheend]

Well, then. Shall we? [Likewise picking up a candy.]

[It's outside, somewhere on the grounds of what looks to be a Victorian-style manor, in the middle of the night. Six trespassers (assassins, of course; always these bothersome assassins) approaching the manor, approaching the window of the master bedroom.

Sebastian follows them, silently, ducking behind a tree as the leader turns back momentarily towards his men. After that it's quick work: Sebastian appears behind each man, sliding a knife into each one's neck so swiftly, and laying them down on the ground so silently, that in the end, he's taken them all down in minutes, without anyone making so much as a dying sound.

Only with the very last one does he allow himself a moment to play: locking the man to his chest from behind with one hand, resting the knife to his neck with the other, he whispers in his ear that this will not do; guests should enter properly through the front door. Savouring those brief seconds of palpable terror radiating from the man.

And then, he too is killed, with a quick, forceful stab right through the soft part of his jaw.]

[Aaand the feelings you're getting from this are: adrenaline, excitement, satisfaction.]

Re: 1 Savoury (adrenaline)

[time5kip]

[ Wait. What the fuck. He's not just a cat loving weirdo??? ]

Since when you know how to do that.

Re: 1 Savoury (adrenaline)

[edensresurrection]

....Well. That was unexpected.

Re: 1 Savoury (adrenaline)

[auguryofinnocence]

[Why are those two surprised, this seems about right for Black??

But those feelings...have the other demon breathing a bit hard. It's got his hackles and murderous urges UP. Because that's what adrenaline does right?]

Ah, so you can feel things. Maybe you can win this after all.

SOUR (embarassment)

[time5kip]

[ Well. It's time for him to take those candy and he's really hoping it's not going to show any of the more recent spicy memories to embarrass him.

Fortunately it will only replay a memory he's already shown, which is however still embarrassing ]

Re: SOUR (embarassment)

[edensresurrection]

[ Gaia opens her mouth...

...and then she closes it. ]

Re: SOUR (embarassment)

[untiltheend]

Re: SOUR (embarassment)

[auguryofinnocence]

[Ah, this one.

Even feeling the embarrassment he can't help but grin a little??]

You're still right.

Sour (embarrassment/shame combo)

[auguryofinnocence]

[Well he didn't want to memory share like that but he sure doesn't want to talk about any of it either???

So here's hoping for something not terrible.

Well it could be worse. There's embarrassment and shame, fear, yearning and hopefulness. Even the hope hurts though.

But it's nothing recent and spicy! Old men are safe today.]

Re: Sour (embarrassment/shame combo)

[time5kip]

[ He won't say it's kind of cute out of respect

but he is thinking it ]

Bitter (also combo)

[auguryofinnocence]

[Probably only Five knows why he's someone else in this one. Oh well, figure it out yourselves!

The feelings here besides the anger and bitterness are just absolute contempt and pettiness, grief. The desire to make the boy suffer in exactly the ways he has. As if that will make it feel better.

Aaand he's going to wander to the furthest corner he can get to away from everyone so they can not discuss it thanks!]

RESULTS

[idolpro]

[ You made a Simple Omelet! While it isn't 10000% perfect, it's also full of heart and emotion; ultimately, it's a somewhat-bland balance of sweet, sour, and savory—it could definitely stand to be a little more salty and more . . . well, everything, really—but importantly, it gets you a 12/10 score!

. . . That's not how scores work but whatever!

You can head to endgame, though maybe some of you might be coming back for an encore. You can take some of your food with you as you go! ]
