Second Floor Common Room: Sunday Evening

[iknowstuff]

It was a rather bored looking Layla who was flopped upside down on the couch and doing some channel surfing.

Currently it was on the Travel Channel and Layla was watching the host of Man vs. Food trying to scarf down the hottest curry known to man called "Phaal".

"Clearly I'm starved for entertainment," Layla said to herself with a loud sigh.

"You want food?" Tara asked as she wandered in. "I, I c-could cook..."

[iknowstuff]

"Sure!" Layla said propping herself up on her elbows. "But only if you're making something for yourself Tara."

"I was going to do PB+J," Tara said. "And I think we still have some chips....?"

She went up on tiptoe to fish for them.

"Sounds good," Layla replied. "Would it be too much trouble to have a little mayo on mine too? How have your classes been so far?"

"Wanna play dice?" George asked, wandering into the common room. "Be better than - what's he eatin' there?"

[iknowstuff]

"Phaal," Layla replied. "It's a hot curry dish. The chef has to wear a gas mask to cook it."

"'m thinkin' that means tisn't fit t'eat," George said, making a face.

"Well part of the show is that he tries to eat the impossible foods," Layla explained. "And we get to watch him suffer for our enjoyment."

Diana was walking her cat. Or more specifically, removing her cat from her room so he would stop scratching up her bed. "Why do that to food?" She wondered after looking at the TV for a few seconds.

[iknowstuff]

"Because of the novelty," Layla explained. "One special dish that seems to be impossible to eat. It brings people into the restaurant."

[oops_mbad]

Diana made a face. "I like the show with the guy who goes to the places that you actually can eat normal food in. And none of them ever go to Canada." She randomly added.

[iknowstuff]

"What's wrong with Canada?" Layla asked.

Karla sauntered in, a little bleary-eyed. Even a shower hadn't fully woken her up. Someone had slept most of the weekend away. In her defense, it had been quite a week for her.

"Whatcha watchin'," she yawned. "And why is that male wearing a mask?"

[iknowstuff]

"He's cooking 'phaal'," Layla replied. "It's a curry dish that's so spicy he has to wear it while cooking."

[glacial_witch]

Karla watched the teevee for a few more moments, her expression dubious. "I've made something that got a similar reaction once," she mentioned, "except I did it by accident."

[iknowstuff]

"Ironically it's made me really hungry for curry," Layla mused. "Want to make it again?"
