party rock is in the house tonight

[flashmaiden]

Date & Time: Backdated to sometime before Emil leaves
Location: Unit 103
Characters: Too many people idek. Roommates, Asch, Emil, Asbel, & Christopher??
Summary: Legitimate fixes to the apartment that do not involve duct tape plus a dinner!!
Warnings: I think this entire cast is a warning.

[After the whole duct tape fiasco, or maybe because of it, they'd finally gotten someone to agree to repairing it. And since they have extra guests, it makes senses to do something like a family dinner, right? Only probably is that they don't really have the space for that even, but it won't stop them from trying! If they could cram that many people in the apartment last time, this should be considerably easier. So after some finagling, a dinner had been set up! This is that dinner.

Set up will be in the comments! Tag around, get CR, HAVE FUN. ]

KITCHEN

[flashmaiden]

[The kitchen is not nearly as busy this time! But the fresh aroma of food cooking that drifts from the doorway is still pretty strong. Looks like whoever is cooking in there is really setting up a feast for dinner. It's nice having three cooks around, isn't it? Some people might be banned from the kitchen this time (Asbel).]

[inhumanity]

[Don't ban Christopher from the kitchen! He loves kitchens. He loves cooking, especially when people cook for loved ones. So he ends up in the kitchen, not hovering but watching Cheria cook. After a moment, in his gentle, musical tones, he inquires,] Would you like any help?

[flashmaiden]

[He's yet to anything that warrants banning, so he stay! She turns to his voice, surprised that someone else was in the kitchen. She'd been so absorbed in what she was doing, she hadn't noticed. She doesn't recognize him. A friend of...?]

Oh! Um- you don't have to. You're a guest, you know? We should be cooking for you.

[inhumanity]

If you insist, [he agrees] though I always enjoy helping to cook. Would you mind if I watch? I'll stay out of your way, of course.

[flashmaiden]

[It's unnerving having people watch her cook (even if she watches over peoples' shoulders too...), but she doesn't want to be rude and kick him out of the kitchen. Besides! It would be a good chance to get to know someone new.]

S-sure, you can watch if you want. I'm Cheria, by the way!

[inhumanity]

[Christopher, of course, bows, florid and formal.] I'm Christopher Chareau de Red. I'm a friend of Asbel's.

[flashmaiden]

Wow! That's certainly a mouthful. Are you some kind of noble...?

[Wait, wait, did he say Asbel? Is that who invited him? She sounds surprised when she asks.]

You know Asbel?

[inhumanity]

[Christopher laughs as he rises from the bow.] Ahah, no, though I'd say I am the result of a noble man's will. [He leans against a countertop.] Asbel and I met when we first arrived. We sang together in the rain in search of his friends—in search of you.

[pride_of_amarcia]

Oh, hey Cheria! Need any help back here?

*Pascal just walks right in. So of course if it actually worked out well the last time she stepped in is up to Cheria.*

[flashmaiden]

[No, Pascal is banned too. She turns away from the stove, her spoon brandished dangerously. This is her kitchen she has reclaimed it an no one aside from Kaneis is allowed in it.]

No! [A sigh, and then less immediately.] ...No. I've got everything under control, Pascal.

[pride_of_amarcia]

Aw.

I just wanted to set up to prepare a couple pies for later tonight.

[flashmaiden]

You're a guest here, too, you know! So you're not supposed to help with dinner preparations.

[pride_of_amarcia]

... I screwed up last time, huh?

[knightofcourage]

[Poking his head in, hoping it's okay--]

Do you need any help? You've been in there for a little while.

[flashmaiden]

[She turns to smile at him.]

It's not necessary! I just want to make sure I've made enough food for everyone. [But with Allen around is there every really "enough" for everybody? No, probably not.]

Thank you for the offer though. I didn't know you cooked.

[knightofcourage]

Yeah, I do. I cooked a lot for myself and friends back home, so I'm used to it by now. Are you sure you don't need a hand?
