Vash had come running as soon as he had seen the journal entry. He didn't know how, but all of a sudden it was like his luck had finally turned to the better when donuts were involved. After months of having to contend with Naruto and Haruhi stealing whatever he bought, now people were just giving them to him! If it only kept up, it might make up for all of last week.

He leapt down the last ladder, then scrambled straight into the kitchen. There they were! An entire pile of delicious, sugary, homemade donuts! Vash went over to the counter as if drawn magnetically, grabbing one of the donuts and taking a bite. It was so, so good, he was already dangerously close to bursting into tears again.

Eating the rest of the donut in about five seconds flat, all he managed to say with his mouth full was "Mmmmmm."

Startled somewhat by the sound of Vash's entrance, Tohru looked up from the sink with a squeak.

Vash didn't seem to even have noticed her, however, as he wasn't looking at anything other than the doughnuts. Tohru turned around, shaking the soap off her hands, as Vash finished his doughnut.

"Are they all right, Mr Vash?" she asked. She could see he looked about to cry, but whether it was the good sort of crying or the bad sort she wasn't so sure of.

Vash nodded quickly before swallowing, smiling at her afterwards. "They're amazing! I haven't had real homemade donuts in a long time!" There was a real difference compared to how they were made in a bakery or even at a donut stand. He hesitated to say that any one type of donut was better than another, but these really were deserving of praise.

He grabbed another few donuts and started eating them quickly, casting glances towards the door. It wasn't the rest of the crew he was worried about, it was the Prank Brigade. That's why Vash was perfectly content to remain standing there as he ate, instead of moving out into the mess hall.

"Hel-lo beautiful." Came a sharp whistle, followed by the flapping of feathers. The bird grinned as he entered the kitchen...though sweet smells filled the air, he was only interested in one certain sugar-coated delight.

Kir landed on Tohru's shoulder, wiggling his large eyebrows at her."And how is the most adorable cook in the world doing~?"

[smilin_through]

"Afternoon, Mr Kir," Tohru greeted the bird cheerfully.
She wobbled a little at the unexpected weight on her shoulder as Kir landed, then caught herself and straightened up.

She blushed at the bird's compliment - Tohru, being Tohru, oblivious to whatever lecherous motives Kir had.
"I'm very well, thankyou, Mr Kir. And you?"

[drunkonroyale]

Kir clicked his tongue with clear disapproval. "My dear, if I've told you once, I've told you a million times...no 'mister'. I'm not an old man yet."

Settling that, he hopped off her shoulder to stand on the sink faucet, so he could see her pretty face better. "Got it?"

[smilin_through]

Tohru ducked her head. "Yes M...Kir,"

She plunged her hands back into the sink and resumed scrubbing the pot she'd been cleaning before. "I'm sorry, M-Kir, it just comes out like that. I'll try..."

One can hardly ignore a smell as tempting as that of freshly baked doughnuts. Surely, the kitchen must be packed by now, but the thing was big enough to house the entire crew and then some.

Shyly, Ness peeked into the room, the smell getting stronger.

"Are those doughnuts?" He asked.

[smilin_through]

"Yes, yes they are," Tohru said, turning to look at the boy as he came in.
"Help yourself," she added with a smile, before turning back to the sink.

[eighthmelody]

He didn't need to be told twice. Immediately, his hands went for one of the cinnamon doughnuts and he wasted no time taking a bite.

"These are delicious!" he smiled.

Jen licked her lips as she walked down the hall. She looked around the ship, keeping her mental map out. Let's see. The kitchen was to the left? No, that was the engine room...she thought. Sniffing the air quickly, Jen wisely decided that the kitchen was to the right. Man, those donuts smelled so good.

"Tohru, I hope you know what a sweetie you are," Jen announced as she walked into the kitchen, giant grin on her face. Walking up to the donut pile, she nimbly picked one up off the top. This was gonna taste awesome. Jen took a bite of the donut. Eyes widening, she chewed, enjoying the taste. With a swallow, Jen looked at Tohru. "You're a really good cook!" she complimented.

The minute he received the invitation to get some donuts, Hachibei wasted no time, making his way to the kitchen. The thought of doughnuts was pleasant, but the true reason for his excitement was the opportunity to search for new parts on the ship! Knowing the chef of the doughnuts was female, he grew excited every step of the way.

"Hello!" Hachibei greeted while making his way towards the doughnuts. He took one before the whole lot of them disappeared but did not realize who made them. "So, who's the one we get to thank for these?"
