.:005:. - Of Darkness and Cooking

[hexhax]

[After quite a bit of wandering, mild cursing, and fumbles (even with light), Willow has found the kitchen. The light above her expands to cover the whole area as she starts to look around.]It's time to face facts; we can't leave, so we're living here a while. I'm making dinner, but food's rationed till things go back to normal... if they go back

[Yuuto follows the light to see if he can help with something, but eventually he just sort of... gives up. He's torn apart with worry, practically, and needs some space away from Ryotarou. So he picks an out of the way spot on the counter to sit on and curl up, watching Willow occasionally, but not really offering to be social.]

[hexhax]

[Willow sees Yuuto and quietly starts making him a sandwich, not pressuring him just yet. Though, she does raise some jelly to him to ask if he'd like some on his sandwich.]

[hasarrived]

[Wait... she's making him food?]

... You don't have to do that. [HOLY CRAP HE SAID SOMETHING.]

[hexhax]

[A small smile.] I know. So, jelly? Yes, no? I can get strawberry if you'd prefer that.

[hasarrived]

[... Damn, he could really use something to eat. Even if he doesn't feel like it. He relaxes a little, dangling a foot off the side and looking away.]

Strawberry's fine. ... Thanks.

[hexhax]

Coming right up. [She smiles and heads to the fridge, getting said strawberry jelly. Soon, he has a neatly cut sandwich and a glass of milk in front of him.] Here you go.

[hasarrived]

[He gives her a shy smile and a murmured thanks as he takes the sandwich, but his mind is somewhere else. If the way he's staring absently into the darkness while eating has anything to do with it.]

[hexhax]

[Willow's cool with that, munching on some Frito's she found.]

[hasarrived]

[When he's finished most of the sandwich, he finally says something.]

How long do you think this will go on...?

[hexhax]

Truth be told, I'm not sure. I'll do what I can to make sure we keep some light the whole time though. [She motions above her head to the glowing light illuminating the area.]

[hasarrived]

Ah. [He takes a gulp of milk to wash the rest of the sandwich down.] ... Wish I could do something.

[hexhax]

Well, as powerful as I am, this is all I can do. I'm confident we'll make it through this.

[hasarrived]

Me too.

But... what about everyone at home? I just can't help but feel that nothing is right about all of this. It's supposed to be the Astral Plane. Why is it glitching out?
