1. BROTH-BASED SOUPS
It's mostly water, proportionally speaking. At least more than fifty-two percent, factoring in the size of the bowl and presence of various additional ingredients.

The rest of it, meats and peas and noodles, is just floating. Swimming. The entire set-up is disconcerting. And it smells like rotten tea.

No one notices it during dinner (especially not Regan, who is far too preoccupied with quizzing Simon on his plans for next semester), but the Unexplainable Puddle later discovered under the dining room table is a serious discussion topic for two weeks after.

2. JELLO
They packed it with nutrients, of course. Green jiggling meals in little cups between needles and 'counseling' sessions. When appropriate, they were packed with a little extra punch than what was strictly needed for the diet of a growing child.

('Fee, fie, foe, fum,' the giants say, and they grind their still growing bones down to make a by-product food substitute.River ate it dutifully, despite the occasionally mealy texture and unsettling jiggle; ( ... )

4. EGGS
Scrambled. Over easy. Benedict. Poached.

Poached is the worst. She pokes the bubble of it until there's a runny mess seeping toward the hash brown-esque pile of protein, pushes it around the plate until it's hard to tell where the egg isn't.

Mal is understandably irked. It isn't often they get such a healthsome source of protein that isn't a pile of processed mush, and not eating it is a waste. But her eyes get that wild, spooked look when he suggests, "Just hold your nose and swallow. Ain't wasting this much good food."

He drops it, doesn't want any stabbing to take place over breakfast (again) and somewhere in the flurry of worried looks as River leaves the table Jayne ends up with her plate.

5. STUFF SIMON COOKS
Once upon a time, this had been something else. Ingredients that could, in other circumstances, amount to something entirely different.

As it is, River is left looking at a bowl all full of uncooperative flavors and intentions too steeped in guilt and pride (equal parts that mix about as well as the oil and ( ... )

OKAY. You get brief meta-answers because writing drabbles would be an emo-deluge, on account of Michael Westen is an emo-deluge kind of man.

1. Leaving home without a word and not contacting Maddie or Nate for the longest time. As much as he sucks at apologizing, it did really hurt their feelings and damage his relationship with them; he may not realize easily that people actually do care about him and worry about him and worry about him if he drops off the face of the earth for long periods of time, but they do, and he comes to this conclusion eventually. If he could have a do-over, he might've made a couple more calls home and maybe sent a postcard or two.

2. Abruptly breaking things off with Fiona the first time, or letting them be broken off. Michael is, again, a complicated boy, and it's hard to say what exactly he wants out of his relationship with Fi -- or what his relationship with Fi is exactly -- but like with his fam, he's beginning to realize people actually get hurt when he up and blows away with the next set of ( ... )

SCREAM.

Okay so. LA LA LA FIC, I FEEL LIKE IT.

1. LEXI.

"Tell anyone we did that and I'll put vervain in your stash." Lexi's already wiggling back into her pants, face set in the usual moue of disgust. His bed is rumpled, smells like them both. Laundry day, then. "Tell Stefan and I'll forget the booze and cram it down your throat."

It stings a little, because... they just fucked, she can't save the threats for five minutes? But Damon just stretches, yawning and scratching his stomach. "Was it good for you too?"

The boot she throws at his head just misses, and Damon is slightly smug when it's not because he moved out of the way. "I still hate you." She's just the the door when Damon grins, pushes his luck one more time.

"Same time tomorrow?"

The second boot doesn't miss.

2. GODRIC.

"You really can't eat?" Damon's halfway through his burger, Godric sipping from a glass of blood and watching politely. "And you sleep in coffinsGodric's laugh is genuine, if a little disconnected; like something newly dug up from the ground, the ( ... )
