Date: 12 May 2003 Place: Park behind the manor Status: Public (maybe Raphael wants to be attracted by him after fleeing from Belial? But everyone welcome.) Summary: Jarod contemplates the situation
The woman at the counter seemed surprised, but she then smiled warmly and motioned both of them behind the counter. "I'll even let you do it yourself if you like?"
Raphael grinned at the Son's excitement. The woman handed a paper cup to Jarod and a metal ice cream scooper. "First, you scoop some vanilla ice cream into the cup. Or really, any flavor you prefer, but it tastes best with vanilla or chocolate."
She stepped aside, smiling as if teaching someone the art of ice cream was definately making her day.
"I'll stick with vanilla," Jarod said. "I love vanilla ice cream!"
He had worked as an ice cream vendor before, but only at a stall in the street, where he simply handed out different flavoured ice cream. He did know how to handle the scooper professionally, though.
She nodded. "That's perfect! Next you take it over here..." She walked them over to a counter with little bowls of individual toppings in each one. "Take the spoon and put two spoonfuls inside."
Jarod followed and obeyed. Oh, maybe he would open an icecream parlor some day! That would be sure to make kids happy and he'd get to meet all kinds of people. And yould make some creations in ice cream. He was getting ideas even now.
"Now come over here to the machine and set it so that the mixer is deep inside the cup. When you're ready, switch it on with this button," she explained, curiously looking over at the happy red-haired being. She couldn't help but feel happy and warm inside. "Keep ahold of the cup, or it'll knock out of your hands," she warned.
After the ice cream had been swirled in with the cookie she switched it off and showed him where the whipped cream was. "Next you put a swirl of whipped cream, then take another spoonful of Oreo cookie and sprinkle it on top. You can add a cherry too if you like."
Jarod took the whipped cream and sprayed on a generous helping with a flourish. That worked just as nicely as with spray cheese, and he had ample experience with THAT.
He finished decorating the cup. Now it was almost a shame he was going to eat his creation!
Raphael was smiling broadly. He paid the woman and gave a generous tip, then took his own cookie shake and licked off a bit of cookie from the cream. "Would you like to eat here or head back to the manor?"

"If you don't mind, let's eat as we walk," he said. "It's so nice outside, it would be a shame to sit in here."
