[Lloyd is in the kitchen tonight, the first time he has been since he tried to force his way in over a week ago. He's waiting for Yuuri, sitting at the counter and writing something on a slip of paper he tore from somewhere. There are things scattered around on the counter near him, bowls and spoons and a container of flour. Baking, most likely.]

[Hi. Sorry but...this one has been watching quietly for a while now.]

[simpledoes]

[fucking creepers. Lloyd, at least, is distracted enough trying not to think about Colette AND remember Genis' old recipe at the same time.]

... I mean, seriously, does it really matter how many eggs we use?

[If you want to bake with us just say so, dude.]

[14thkuzunoha]

[Well, he quietly walks in, and looks at the array of ingredients. He's no master chef/baker but...]

Do you need some help?

[simpledoes]

[He starts a little. It's not as bad as it was with Yuuri, but you still managed to startle him.]

-- Huh? Oh, uh, I'm okay. I'm just... trying to remember.

[14thkuzunoha]

[He can tell.] I'm sorry, sir.

The recipe?

[simpledoes]

It's... okay. Don't worry about it.

[he looks back down at the paper for a second, tapping his pen.] Yeah. I'm pretty sure I remember how to do everything, but I can't remember how much of the stuff we're supposed to use.

[14thkuzunoha]

[A nod]

What are you trying to make?

[simpledoes]

It's... supposed to be chocolate cake.

[14thkuzunoha]

[Another nod, then he stops to think...]

There's bound to be a few recipes for that in here. Was it a special kind of chocolate cake?

[simpledoes]

Yeah. ... It's something my friend used to make.

[daemonkoenig]

Cake's all the same, isn't it? Looking up how much of everything to use in a different recipe can't make that big of a change, right?

[14thkuzunoha]

[Oh god, he shakes his head]

You can borrow from other recipes what you can't recall from memory.

[simpledoes]

[He runs a hand through his hair. He doesn't like messing with Genis' recipe, but hey, if it works.]

... I guess. It's not like I forgot that much, anyway.

[daemonkoenig]

Well, now we know where to start, but...[Looking around and can't spot them nearby] Where are the cook books?

[14thkuzunoha]

[...Blinks for a moment, looking around]

One of these cupboards maybe? [And moves to one to look in it]

[simpledoes]

[He's hopping down from where he's sitting to start going through some of the others.]

They've gotta be around here somewhere.
