[After a long day of using new-found eclipse-powers to eliminate zombies and preserve the chastity of strangers from the attention of amorous gorillas,a woman should take some time to relax.  And so, after one long soak in the onsen and a quick stop at the mess hall to pick up a special treat, this particular lady is headed home, to Boy's Cabin 16.2, to enjoy the remainder of her birthday.]

[enters the cabin, slipping off her coat and her shoes, and sees him]

Hmm, that one looks new. Did you just get it?

[glances up]

--Ah, yes, from the library. ... Welcome back.

[welcome_summer]

Good to be back. I brought us something to snack on, but we need--

[sets the small container she was holding down and looks around]

some napkins.

[long-dragon.livejournal.com]

Napkins?

[gets up]

[welcome_summer]

Mmm, I should have thought to bring some with me. Otherwise, things might get sticky.

[long-dragon.livejournal.com]

What did you bring...?

[produces a bunch of napkins out of a drawer and hands them to her]

[welcome_summer]

[receives the napkins and opens the container]

Some daifuku. I dusted them with cornstarch, but still...

[picks one up, sets it on a napkin and hands it over]

--Thank you. You made these...?

[welcome_summer]

Sure did! It took me a while to find the ingredients, otherwise I'd have made some for New Year's.

[picking up one for herself]

--It's good.

[welcome_summer]

Mmm, they came out alright. Help yourself if you want, there should be some plum-filled ones as well as anko.

[long-dragon.livejournal.com]

I was not aware you could-- ...

[UM]

[welcome_summer]

...that I could what? Cook?

[long-dragon.livejournal.com]

[c-cough]

--Well, I suppose. It just never came up.

[helps himself to another one <<]

[welcome_summer]

No, it's a fair assumption. I did bake those Christmas cookies in small batches, so you didn't see me carrying them all around. But yes I can, and now you know.

[that's a good idea, mmm plum...]

[long-dragon.livejournal.com]

You...


[y-yeah okay, shutting up now]

[welcome_summer]

It's not really that hard. If you can read, you can cook. I just follow what the instructions say, most of the time.

[long-dragon.livejournal.com]

... Aah.

[welcome_summer]

...Did you like the cookies too?

[long-dragon.livejournal.com]

I did... thank you.

[welcome_summer]

You're welcome. Ebi helped with those; you know, Hara-san's friend? Couldn't have finished them without her.

--So you two have been getting along?
