[Kitchen - Last week of March]

[Goro generally doesn't cook for himself beyond boiling a few eggs, usually either taking advantage of large meals made by others or just getting someone to cook for him. There's a reason for that...a reason his boyfriends have been trying to address. This week, he's actually attempting various simple dishes in the kitchen...with varying degrees of success. That soup he's offering you might be made with sugar instead of salt with a scorched bottom, or the omurice could have large chunks of onions waiting for the unwary to bite into. Generally speaking, nothing is completely inedible, but it's entirely possible he might have made just about any amateur mistake in the book. Taste testers beware.]

[Communal area/Magic lab - Evening of 3/26 or daytime of 3/27]

[For reasons certainly not related to difficulty sleeping, tonight finds Goro Akechi awake at times he really should be asleep. He'll be up all night, playing various video games he found in the remains of the Fissure on the beach. He's easy to spot, at least, in his bright outfit.

Unfortunately for him, staying up all night doesn't come without a cost...especially with the sound of rain pounding away outside. By the afternoon, he's dozed of in the magic lab, slumped back in his chair with a book in his lap. Every now and then, his expression twitches in something unpleasant, but he's too deep asleep for whatever it is to wake him up on its own.]


[Throughout the Station (save the greenhouse floor and medical lab) - 4/1]

[Though there's no calendars in the Station, Goro's been keeping track of the date...and today is a 'holiday' he's never really had a chance to participate in before. Last April, the only person he was comfortable showing his sense of humor to didn't really have one of her own...now it's different. The trip cords he's set up, made of threads pulled from silk yarn, are attached to small containers balanced precariously above places people he knows generally frequent. At first glance, it seems like they're simply filled with room temperature water, but direct light causes the victims of his prank to sparkle dark purple - the water is nothing but a distribution method for a small amount of microglitter.

Of course, while he's only aiming for people he's generally relaxed around, there's nothing near a guarantee others won't get caught in the crossfire. Either way, he'll be hiding somewhere nearby, somehow all but invisible even if his only cover is a chair.]


[Kitchen again - 4/2]

[Want to lodge a complaint about yesterday's prank? Goro's going to be spending much of the day on the second in the kitchen, with a pile of bright red snake eel scales, a bottle of dark green dye, a spool of yarn, and various assorted crafting tools. He's working on separating the yarn into smaller threads, which he dyes dark green and uses to thread the scales together around a small glimmerstone. The later in the day, the easier it is to tell what he's making: a small 'glass' flower, with scales for petals and a stem crocheted around a thin piece of aluminum. And if he ends up with dark green fingertips from handling the dyed threads while they're still wet...well, prices must be paid.]
beguiledcard: (because you want to save a life)

okay, while akira did want to learn how to sparkle, this is just ridiculous :/

[ At first, it might seem like he noticed the trip cord - would it really be so surprising? He does have Third Eye. But, in this case, it appears he's realizing something. He glances to the side, considering going back for some reason he's not going to voice aloud ( he has not, after all, noticed Goro )...

Clearly changing his mind on that was the mistake. ]


?!

[ The sudden water seems to jolt him out of thought, his eyes widening as he stares at the floor for a moment. After the initial surprise, he begins wiping at his face, only to look at his hand, and-- ]

Goro Akechi, if this was you, I hope you know I'm gonna roll around on all your clothes.

[ WHO ELSE WOULD DO THIS??? And, if it was Goro, he knows good and damn well, his darling boyfriend would never pass up the chance to watch the fruits of his labor. SHOW YOURSELF, YOU HEATHEN.

... also, if it sounded like he's trying not to laugh, that's because he's seconds from doing it. ]

Kitchen - March

[personal profile] rhododendronhoney 2018-04-04 06:57 am (UTC)(link)
[Cori winces a bit at the omurice with giant onion chunks.] Well, the egg part's pretty good...but I think this would be better with the onion diced more finely. I can offer some tips on that at least.

[She nods slightly.] Oh-it's no problem. I can show you, if you'd like.

Somewhere in the residential area...

GLITTERDUST WHY

[The trap worked perfectly on a certain Succubus who wasn't thinking to make Spot checks against yarn tripwires.]

MY EYES IT wait why isn't it trying to blind me IT STILL HURTS but I'm not rolling a Fortitude save? What?

[Pidonus blinked a few times, confused. Thankfully, it washes out of her eyes easily.]

... What is this stuff?
have_hat_will_travel: (Tired)

[personal profile] have_hat_will_travel 2018-04-04 10:36 pm (UTC)(link)
[Pidonus breathes a bit... And catches herself.]

... It's not a weapon? That's... Uh. Huh.

Not fey magic, either. Fey magic's terrifying.
have_hat_will_travel: (Wat)

[personal profile] have_hat_will_travel 2018-04-04 11:26 pm (UTC)(link)
... Where I'm from, that'd be really expensive...
matchmakes: (013)

And yet Goro's still a better cook than Robin, probably

[personal profile] matchmakes 2018-04-05 01:55 am (UTC)(link)
[Robin only occasionally ventures into the kitchen for attempts at cooking, but he's always up for taste-testing whatever anyone else whips up.

(Not without the disclaimer that he probably won't have any useful input when it comes to the actual cooking process.)

So, naturally, he volunteered to try this soup that Goro's made!]


... Well... it's better than what I usually make, at least. Though... you didn't happen to get the sugar and salt mixed up, did you?

[And that's not even touching on the bitterness from the scorching...]
matchmakes: (032)

[personal profile] matchmakes 2018-04-05 09:01 am (UTC)(link)
That they do.

[It almost sounds like he knows from experience...]

Well... it could always be worse?

... Tech differences still scare me...

glitter outside magic lab

[personal profile] personalityquarks 2018-04-05 09:49 pm (UTC)(link)
[There's an android yelp not long after Goro sets up this particular trap. Peeking on the results will reveal Charm, pale outer shell making the glitter stick out even more than it normally would, trying to wipe glitter off his "eyes" (actually advanced cameras).]

Oh, come on...
have_hat_will_travel: (Huh)

[personal profile] have_hat_will_travel 2018-04-05 10:00 pm (UTC)(link)
Mmm. Fair enough, I guess.

It makes you wonder if higher development of magic leads to stunted development of technology somehow, huh.

4/2

[personal profile] founderinglight 2018-04-05 10:05 pm (UTC)(link)
[Perhaps fortunately, given how protective the man is of his scarf, Goro's pranks did not land a hit on Izunia yesterday. He spotted the first one in the hallway outside the kitchen and then proceeded to make it a point to warp everywhere instead of walking.

He hasn't seen any more traps today, but better safe than sorry. So the only warning that Goro gets that he's about to be intruded on - if he looks up at the right time - is a single tarotlike card, seemingly embedded in the air over the table he's working at, before a burst of blue light follows it and HERE'S IZUNIA, DUDE.]


New project?
personalityquarks: (Charm)

[personal profile] personalityquarks 2018-04-05 10:07 pm (UTC)(link)
I have no idea what that means.

[Charm shuffles his scarf around, to find a clean, dry patch and use it to wipe glitter out of his eyes.]
