[Sanji's gone too now, huh. WELP.

Katie has decided the best reaction to that is: whatever. It's a promise broken, and she wonders if the wyrd is capable of enforcing the consequences outside of Luceti, but either way it' s out of her hands.  This explains his two years on Kamabakka, totally.  Anyway, she doesn't care.

[ guess who else hates porridge?

guess who is still making bowls of it, regardless?

guess who has a good seven bowls lined up on her kitchen counter and is trying valiantly to suppressed the urge to make an eighth.

gee she doesn't like being a bear. in spirit, i should add. not in appearance. dear lord. ]

[Katie's nose wrinkles as soon as she comes into the house. Porridge, porridge everywhere. It's with great trepidation that she approaches the kitchen and slinks through the doorway, and makes a fair bit of noise doing so-- to her mind, if she's ambushed by bear ninjas intend on defending their porridge, that's all the better. Then she doesn't have to eat the stuff.

Seven bowls? The look she gives Buffy is one of horrified fascination.]

Do you have a dwarf infestation?

...Funny you should ask that, really.

[ a dry response. buffy stares at the girl -- what is she doing in seven?

the slayer sprinkles brown sugar on the seventh bowl. ]

You have to watch out with dwarves. [She edges closer to the bowls with a look that implies she's on her way to her own execution.] You mend one sock for them, and then suddenly they're underfoot all the time and they won't let you eat anything that's good for you.

What about just one dwarf? [ jilly had been made tiny, after all. ]

It's much more difficult to trip over just one dwarf. [She eyes the porridge dubiously.] Is this dwarf a very big eater?

...I'm gonna go with no. Not a big eater. I hope not. Maybe?

Want some porridge?

...With raspberries on top?

Well, it might make it taste better. [Curious.] Do people often put raspberries on porridge?

No sweet clue. Just seems like a good idea, right? I'd put anything on porridge to try and mask the porridgey taste.

[ she sprinkles a handful over top and slides the bowl over to her little goldilocksian thief. buffy'a always been culinarily generous to thieves. ]

I didn't think anything could mask porridgey taste. Not that I don't like porridge. I quite love it.

[She's picking the raspberries off and eyeing the porridge with dread as she runs out of excuses to eat it. But perhaps if she leaves it long enough it will be Too Cold.]

[ she watches the girl pick the berries off. ]

What? Not good enough?

Oh, it's not that! It's just that I always eat the berries first. It's good luck.

Really? I didn't realize that luck had anything to do with porridge, Katie.

[ a gentle kind of disbelief. ]

Oh, it has a lot to do with luck. It all depends on what country you're from. Do you know any Irish people?
