[open] come along for food

Who: Boreas and you!
Where: Kitchen
When: Lunchtime, early part of sick week 1
Rating: Nothing spicy here except food, maybe
What: Grumpy dragon dad cooks.

From: Wintersmith

I am roasting something I hunted.

Tell me something about your home and I will give you a piece.

[ True to his message, Boreas can be found inside the Temple's rudimentary kitchen. He's cleared out a decent amount of space next to the oven, the carcass of a deer-pigeon fusion animal on the counter with half of the meat sliced off. A rich smell emanates from the brick oven where several cuts of meat are currently cooking - not-quite buttery, carrying notes of spice and zest.

He'll be cooking slices of the deerpigeon as people come, plating them when the juices have completely soaked in. The meat is a bit tough, which he has tried to remedy by cutting slits in the meat in hopes that the residual fat would soften the muscle. What might stand out to others is the manner that it has been seasoned with - the meat is rubbed with butter and some oil to make up for the leanness of the meat, but there is also noticeable amounts of berry paste stuffed into the steak. The texture of the paste is much like pesto, along with how little it has been added, clearly evident that it is meant to serve as seasoning. If one licks a bit of the paste, they'll find that it's the source of the spiciness. It's a strange sort of flavour, but not entirely unpleasant - just unique. Mixed in with the paste are bits of something hard, possibly seeds. Biting them stings, like peppercorns.

Adults may be offered a glass of wine if they look like they need one. Otherwise, feel free to hang out in the kitchen while he cooks his kill. Ask questions, chat with each other, tell him stories while the temple flu isn't too intense.

Occasionally one might see him with his horns replaced by bunny ears. There's probably a reason to it but he's not telling you ]


[ ooc: feel free to tag each other as well! he'll just be around cooking until the meat runs out. if anyone has taste preferences he can try to accommodate them. if you'd like to do wildcards I'm game. hit me up on plurk or via pm ♥ ]

[ha]

Fortunately, most people here feel the same way. Which is kind of surprising, but I won't complain.
purrtagonist: and go take a bath (stop trying to kill the prisoner)

Mmm. So long as we all manage to keep our goals in alignment.

[he's considered what may happen if, in the future, the Circle broke off into factions. that hasn't happened at all so far, and he doesn't expect it to happen anytime soon, but. it's always a possibility]

[the fact that most of them were in agreement about helping when they could was almost a miracle in and of itself]
purrtagonist: (So can I nonlethally decapitate him)

[aha]

[Akira glances up from his meal to peer at the Wintersmith curiously, utensil hanging loosely in his fingers. for a moment, he just looks thoughtful. and then. . . he grins]


When you say it like that, you sound like a superhero.

[but he isn't mocking, even though he teases]

I think that's a good thing.

[Akira ducks his head, turning his attention back to the meal Wintersmith prepared for him]

And while you don't need me to tell you this, I hope you keep taking them seriously. No matter what.
purrtagonist: (I cast Frustrate GM)

sounds good!

[Akira's smile isn't quite a smirk-- only because he isn't feeling well enough to really muster one up right now. but Wintersmith gets one last grin before comfortable silence lapses over them both, and Akira returns to his hearty meal]

[he'll remember this exchange, that's for sure]
