COOKING SHOW - 5PM PST - avante en garde

[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. ]

Mm, well, just because we're not required to put everything together ourselves doesn't mean we can't do so anyway.

[ one hand on her hip: genuine pride ]

You deserve a chance to show off, I think.

[ a beat ] ...Also, perhaps you can tell me what a gu-n-okki is?

[calmthefoxdown]

[ There is a spark of competitiveness in him even if his face doesn't show it. ]

I'm definitely going to try the second the ingredients show up.

[ Wait, blinking. ]

The what?

[worthathousand]

[ The competitiveness reflects back at him with the emotional equivalent of a hell yes. ]

Ah—you know, the...

[ holding up her phone and tapping a finger to the rules display ]

...The dish we're making? That first thing is a sort of... cheese, isn't it? But I haven't heard of gu-n-okki at all.

[calmthefoxdown]

[ Leaning over to look. ]

Oh, the gi-no-chi.

[ He is not an expert at this either. ]

I think it's an Italian pasta thing... like ravioli?

[worthathousand]

[ drawing a blank ] ...I don't think I know what that is either.

You really are going to have to be our General today; evidently I'm quite hopeless. [ fond again ]

[calmthefoxdown]

[ He snorts a little with a laugh, amused. ]

If we don't get to take home this one, I'll look up a recipe ta cook for ya.

[worthathousand]

[ laughing with him, a bit ]

You're going to teach me bad habits if you aren't careful.

[ affecting a mock-helplessness ] "Oh no, Gold, I can't recognize any of these dozen recipes for desserts..."

[calmthefoxdown]

[ Soft amusement. ]

Too bad for you, making food for other people is one of the things I enjoy the most.
