Vriska surveyed the scene with slight trepidation. Gatherings of people she didn't know were not her thing. Being awake in the middle of the day was not her thing. And potentially having to play nice with Jun's spacedouche space racist buddies who happened to be a hell of a lot taller in person than they seemed on the network?

So. Not. Her. Thing.

But whatever. This was Jun's weird outdoor day-party. Jun was awesome. More importantly, Jun thought she was awesome. How could this possibly not turn out to be the greatest thing ever?

"Heeeeeeeey, Jun! Nice... dress." Vriska peered at the strange stained garment doubtfully. Wow. Human fashion sure was weird. Still, best to be pleasant and friendly and all that crap! "Your weird human cooking better be as good as you promised! I'm starving."

"Hey Vrisk! You made it!" He gives a happy wave and steps around from the grill. At 6'10.9", Jun's the tallest of the IIIs, and the t-shirt shows off the muscles toned from a lifetime of training and war.

"It's an apron, keeps all the splatter off my clothes. What do you trolls wear when you're cooking? And help yourself, I've got prettymuch something for everyone here!" Whether or not Vriska actually finds it edible is yet to be seen ...

"What. You have special outfits for cooking?" This is new. And kind of impressive. Humans must take this stuff way more seriously than trolls do. Man, so many cultural differences!

And culinary differences. Vriska blinks at the strange-looking selection of food. So. Weird. "I, uh. You're going to have to help me out here. I don't recognise any of this stuff!"

"Well yeah, what do you trolls wear to make sure you're not entirely spattered with cooking oil?"

"No problem!" He'll grab a plate and start loading it with stuff, including banana worm bread, Bar-b-cqued Moose, and Tuna Twinkie Souffle.

Jiji was a cat, and therefore knew his place at such a gathering as this. His was to hide in the shadows, or lay in the sun, or sneak bites of potato salad off of people's plates.

Or wind around Jun's ankles in complex figure eights while he was trying to cook.

"Hot doooooog, Hot dooooog, Hot dog! Hooooot dog!"

Oh god giant Spartan trying npot to step on little kitty. "Hey hey hey Jij! You're really angling to get kicked across the field, you keep doing that!"

Bending down to scratch his cheek, and then hold out a bit of Tuna Twinkie Souffle. Cats liked fish, right?

The gratitude of a cat knows no bounds- which is why he gives it to you ahead of time. Of course, Jiji obviously isn't going to be giving it afterwards; as soon as he's got that fish in his mouth he's off to find a secluded spot to enjoy the spoils of war.

But he'll back, Jun. Oh yes.

For hot dogs.

Jun can't help but chuckle at him, before going back to his cooking. Oh kitty, why so cute?

And sadly, a good old normal hot dog is absoultely nowhere on the menu.

Kaylee arrived early and cheerfully. She absolutely adored barbecues, and there was no excuse to be late. She even came bearing potato salad, the generic side-dish that everyone loves.

She was practically skipping when she came alongside the grill and the ridiculously large man cooking on it.

"Hello! Hope I ain't late!"

"Hey! Awesome, what you got there?" Wiping his hands on his apron and hurrying over. Another foodie! And a cute one!

"Not late at all; party's just gettin' started! I don't think I've met you yet ... ?" Plucking out the potato salad and making room for it on the table. "I'm Jun-A266."

"Hi there, Jun-A...twosixsix," Kaylee greeted cheerfully and peered at the grill as he made room for the potato salad. There were a whole mess of things on there, and Kaylee was getting more and more excited about this.

"Nice ta meetcha," Kaylee added and offered a hand when she turned back around. She had to look way up at him, but it was okay. He seemed friendly enough.

"You too! You got a name, or should I call you Potato Salad Girl?" He takes her hand and gives it a little shake, trying not to break it.

...He couldn't not come to a party Jun was holding, but then again, this was riding pretty damn close to the edge of Carter's order not to go anywhere near the aliens.

Emile's idea of a compromise was to stick to the shadows around the edge of the party and patrol around, keeping his eyes and ears open for trouble.

Buddy, you're the best.

But 'BBQ Patrol' does not save you from actually eating anything. Here's Jun coming up with a plate for you.

"Hey man, nice turnout, yeah?"

Reply

evaskullface January 13 2011, 02:25:21 UTC
He takes the plate and sets it carefully down on a rock, nodding to the rest of the crowd as if explaining 'they don't get to see me take my helmet off, bro'. He figures the BBQ will at least be useful as a last-resort weapon if he runs out of grenades.

"Not bad. Long as they behave, anyway."

"No reason why they shouldn't." He's happier than he's been for a long time, momentarily able to focus on something other than man-eating raptors.

Shepard figured this was going to be about twenty different kinds of violently awkward and it was in direct violation of her standing order to avoid the UNSC. (Not that she'd been enforcing it, but she couldn't help but recall giving that order as she stepped out of the transporter.) Still, Noble Six had given her a reason to seriously reconsider her policy (among an extensive array of bruises) and Carter had been amicable. Maybe they were just regular marines. Well, giant regular marines ( ... )

"Well, I got the Calio Bear just about ready, there's also some Bar-b-cqued Moose left. You got any requests?"

Chipper, cheery, almost as excited about this as he is at sniping.

"You should try the fish!" Jiji suggested, making a graceful arc from the ground to the hip-high table meant to hold freshly done meat. There was a suspicious void in the pattern of laid-out moose meat; he pretended not to notice it.

cmdr_renegade January 13 2011, 03:31:14 UTC
Moose? Bear?

Well, to be fair, Shepard had eaten pyjak jerky without flinching, she couldn't really judge about where people got their meat (so long as it wasn't someone she liked). Shepard shrugged but before she could answer, there was a cat on the table and it was talking to her.

It took her a minute to process that.

"How's the fish?"

It seemed to be the only sensible question and she leveled it at the officer with the apron.
