Housewarming Party! Apartment Above Luke's, Friday Afternoon Till Evening

Feb 10, 2017 03:45

Raven and Kathy were officially moved in!

Okay, not everything was done and most of their stuff was still at Eliot's, but they'd gotten a lot of work done painting and assembling furniture and most of what was left could be moved over a bit at a time. Which meant...it was close enough to being fully moved in that a small party was warranted. ( Read more... )

what: just cool roommate stuff, who: eliot spencer, who: anders, what: housewarming event, where: apartment above lukes, who: alluka zoldyck, who: ringo noyamano, who: raven darkholme, who: alec hardison, who: jalian d'arsennette y ken selvren

Raven shot Kathy the occasional amused dirty look, and heaped her plate with bacon-wrapped potatoes.

She'd ask Kathy again why the whole menu was pig-based later.

Re: Dinner! spin_kick_snap February 10 2017, 18:21:58 UTC

Because Kathy really loved pork! It was a Korean staple!

...Ignore the way her whole face shifted and paled when she took a bite of the bacon risotto. She paled and discreetly spat into a napkin, then pasted a smile on her face and politely excused herself.

Raven glanced around the table to see if anyone else had noticed. She gave Eliot a small shake of her head when she saw him trying to get up, then excused herself as well and followed after.

"It's the meat, isn't it," she said. "You still haven't really eaten any since you got back."

Kathy, face pressed against the cool ceramic of her bathroom sink, nodded. "Yeah," she said softly. "It's too..." She shuddered. "It tastes too good. It makes me think of the dreams I've been having."

Dreams. Not memories. Dreams.

Raven leaned against the counter next to her and reached over to rub her shoulders. She didn't really understand food tasting too good, but this didn't really seem like the time to argue. "Dreams about being . . . you know?"

Re: Dinner! spin_kick_snap February 10 2017, 23:36:24 UTC

Kathy nodded, looking back at Raven with a face as pale as milk. "It tasted like..." She didn't want to say it. "When I dream, the taste fills my whole mouth. And part of me is screaming but the rest of me thinks it's the most delicious thing I've ever eaten in my whole life. And when I had a bite of the bacon, I couldn't tell the difference between that and..."

Re: Dinner! tigerundercover February 10 2017, 23:59:41 UTC

Raven grimaced. "Is there any bacon in the salad?" she asked.

Re: Dinner! spin_kick_snap February 11 2017, 06:56:33 UTC

Kathy shook her head. "No, nothing there. I almost added bacon bits but I decided not to at the last minute," she said with a laugh that bordered on hysterical.

Re: Dinner! tigerundercover February 12 2017, 00:39:40 UTC

"Well there you go!" Raven was maybe a little too enthusiastic about that salad. "Okay, so this isn't great. But it's doable. I could . . . accidentally knock your plate off the table, so no one has to notice?"

Re: Dinner! spin_kick_snap February 13 2017, 06:13:30 UTC

"I'm sure we don't have to go that far," Kathy said. "Who pays attention to what I'm eating?"

Besides Raven, of course. And Eliot. And she'd spotted Hardison sneaking glances at both of their plates. And hadn't Anders said something the other day...?

Okay, so maybe Ringo and Alluka weren't going to notice?

Re: Dinner! tigerundercover February 13 2017, 06:17:56 UTC

"I'm pretty sure Mr. Spencer is paying attention to literally everything you're doing," Raven pointed out. "It's actually kind of creepy."

Re: Dinner! spin_kick_snap February 14 2017, 17:33:50 UTC

"No it's not," Kathy protested immediately. "Part of that is just him. He watches everything, just in case."

Not helping here, Kathy.

"He just wants to make sure I'm okay."

Re: Dinner! tigerundercover February 14 2017, 17:57:50 UTC

"If you say so." Raven clearly didn't buy it. She wouldn't do anything -- he was Kathy's mentor, not hers -- but she definitely was going to keep right on thinking Mr. Spencer was kind of creepy. "You sure you don't want me to stealth destroy your plate?"

Re: Dinner! spin_kick_snap February 14 2017, 20:55:19 UTC

"But we just got the set!" Kathy protested, though she was laughing as she said it. Weakly, anyway. "No, I'll just push stuff around and then load up on salad."

She paused. "How would you stealth-destroy my plate anyway?" Color her curious.

Re: Dinner! tigerundercover February 14 2017, 21:00:40 UTC

"Accidentally knock it onto the floor. Then maybe accidentally grow an elephant foot?" Raven shrugged. "There are ways."

Re: Dinner! spin_kick_snap February 14 2017, 22:13:17 UTC

"That's not stealthy," Kathy informed her, rising her mouth out with a handful of water from the sink. "That's kind of the opposite of stealth."
