Anju hears a strange sound coming from the kitchen. Being a part of the kitchen staff, Anju has a right to be in the kitchen. This area is supposed to be off-limits to all regular civilians. This prompts an investigation! While it might have been smarter to get an adult to investigate with her, the young vampire has Boogie-kun for backup.

Walking into that section of the kitchen, Anju sees Mina and a giant dog. Anju calls out, "What is the strange lady and her big doggie doing in the kitchen?"

He'd not been disappointed: she was perfectly punctual. She always had been. Always. It was her, too, no doubt about that. He'd been trying to fool himself into thinking that perhaps the chlorine had muddled his nose, that the sound of her voice had been distorted by the acoustics of the pool. But... it wasn't. There she was, alive and well, and, most odd, human.

"Woff," he commented as she addressed him. He stood up and bumped his body against her legs, tail swishing from side to side almost cautiously. "Wuff." By all means, cook me something, he thought rather loudly, tilting his head up and licking at her hand. It's been a very long time.

Mina. Mina!

Mina eyed the enormous pup as he rubbed against her bare legs. She preferred to wear longer skirts, but none of the ones Reiri had supplied her with were up to par. Then again, it was better than being half-naked.

Today she was wearing a pleated skirt that ended just above the knees the same hue as red columbines, along with a cream colored boots and top. The outfit was completed, of course, by a crimson scarf.

"I'm going to make him breakfast, I think," she answered the young girl, undoubtedly Anju one of the kitchen staff who had contacted her.

Mina started to investigate the materials possessed by the kitchen staff. It appeared that there was no meat anywhere and everything else tended to have strange add-ons to their names -- words like "Soy" and "Vegetable Based". Perhaps this adventure was going to be a little more difficult than she thought.

She stared down at the dog and said, "I suppose you're at least used to a meatless diet?"

[alucloset]

He hadn't been expecting anything meaty- he fancied himself a realistic dog. Man. Vampire. Whatever. He was pleased to be able to eat anything from Mina's capable hands. It was a pity they only had some miserly, miserable supplies for the woman- lord knew she could fix a meal most sumptuous indeed.

So he wagged his tail, grinned a toothy grin, and butted her in the hip with his head. He didn't look up her skirt. That was temptation to be ungentlemanly, and that... he would not be.

For now.

Mina started to compile a list in her head of what she could make from the ingredients provided. She only knew a few dog food recipes that didn't require any meat, which helped to narrow down her search for possible food substitutes.

Patting the dog on the head absentmindedly, she scanned the shelves rapidly. Finally, Mina pulled down a few spices, some sort of oil, and a bag of something that looked like rice. She also grabbed an enormous saucepan and activated an oven located on the outskirts of the kitchen.

Water from a nearby facet and a fair amount of the rice(?) was measured out with standardized cups. The two ingredients were then poured into the saucepan which was then applied to the top of the stove.

Unfortunately the recipe in Mina's mind was meant to make a lot of dog food.

"I hope you either have a large appetite or a couple of canine friends," she told the great fluffy beast with a hint of amusement.
