“I see now that the path I choose through the maze makes me what I am. I am not only a thing, but also a way of being—one of many ways—and knowing the paths I have followed and the ones left to take will help me understand what I am becoming.”

[Did somebody ask for a stray cat? No?

Well, here she is anyway, sitting herself down like she owns the place and already clearly intent on helping herself to some ingredients. What do you mean this is supposed to be a communal meal...
]

Oh, this's gotta go in.

[Well, she wasn't part of the ingredient preparation, and there is an almost baffling amount of ingredients here (seriously, who could possibly eat this much?), so Miharu's trying to not sweat the possibility of too many free handouts leaving others hungry. Still... there's a stray cat here, right in front of Miharu's rice.]

The broth still looks a little light. [Don't just dump all of your veggies in without sacrificing a few pieces of meat for the flavor, Shoka!

But the advice about the broth richness isn't really for her own sake. She's just done enough of her share of cooking for others that she can generally point out what will give a meal more depth. It matters less to her, who for the moment is just content with her tea.
]
threatmewted: ([Smile] the chance)

[personal profile] threatmewted 2023-10-16 05:35 am (UTC)(link)
[Definitely going to dump in some meat tbh.]

Not for long.
ophidie: (⛎ 1)

[personal profile] ophidie 2023-10-17 12:46 am (UTC)(link)
Well, you have plenty of time to enjoy it.

[Presuming that Shoka has just hamster squirreled a whole little plate of ingredients or something up for herself, or something like that like a food insecure shelter animal.]

I'm sure the rare chance to slow down is the appeal for a lot of people here.
threatmewted: ([Explain] Keep runnin' runnin')

[personal profile] threatmewted 2023-10-17 01:10 am (UTC)(link)
[She sure has, but it's less food insecurity and more just greed.]

Can't really blame 'em? The game's been going hard on us for a while now.
ophidie: (⛎ 12)

[personal profile] ophidie 2023-10-19 03:46 am (UTC)(link)
It sure has. [There's no disagreeing with that, even if she'd initially just been trying to subtly (albeit a bit passive aggressively) nudge Swallow towards taking it easy instead of plowing through the ingredients at breakneck pace.]

There's no use in banning it as a topic of discussion, but I think most of us are too tired to argue today regardless.
threatmewted: ([Ugh] I can't shake this)

[personal profile] threatmewted 2023-10-19 09:43 am (UTC)(link)
Ugh, if I hear any more fighting, I'm bailing immediately.

[And look. If they didn't actually have enough for everyone, they shouldn't have advertised having more in the back, so if you look at it that way it's not her problem really,]
ophidie: (⛎ 4)

[personal profile] ophidie 2023-10-21 04:17 am (UTC)(link)
[Well, at least she doesn't sound likely to cause it, based on her attitude. Miharu begins tossing her own contributions into the nabe, more idly picking at some of the ingredients laid out than intending to linger for a full meal.]

No interest in breaking up any more quarrels? Well, it's true that it wouldn't be your problem.
threatmewted: ([Ugh] yet again)

[personal profile] threatmewted 2023-10-21 05:07 am (UTC)(link)
Nope. Not my job.

[Selecting some pieces that have cooked through.]
threatmewted: ([Smug] the chance)

[personal profile] threatmewted 2023-10-16 05:38 am (UTC)(link)
For me, yeah.

[Tossing in what seems to be a specific mix of meat and veggies. Someone beelined for the cuts that would be considered fine and expensive in the real world.]
threatmewted: ([Smug] That things were A-OK)

[personal profile] threatmewted 2023-10-18 04:34 am (UTC)(link)
It's free food, what's there not to like?

[She'll allow the veggie theft, though if it looks like he's aiming for the meat she'll snatch it up before he can.]
tylorific: (excuse me sir)

[personal profile] tylorific 2023-10-16 01:16 am (UTC)(link)
[ Tylor doesn't mean to be quiet on his approach, probably from behind her seat. Eventually he is hard to miss, but not before he starts with-- ]

Are you looking for spice?

[ Before casually replacing the ingredients. ]
threatmewted: ([Explain] Go and get it)

[personal profile] threatmewted 2023-10-16 05:42 am (UTC)(link)
Not this time. Funny as it'd be to watch someone cry over some spice, now's probably not the time for it.

[She is, however, dumping in the finer cuts of meat, evidently trying to snatch them before the others can get at it.]
tylorific: (well handled solutions)

[personal profile] tylorific 2023-10-16 05:56 am (UTC)(link)
Well, that wouldn't be very nice.

[ Tylor says, but his tone is almost sing song in its levity. As if he too can picture it as a funny prank on a better day. Not Noir's day. He's still smiling as he watches her commit shabu shabu rudeness.

Instead, he attempts to snatch a piece before she does (13). Success or not, he goes on--
]

You know, we've got plenty to go around. Besides, I'd cook for a lovely lady like you anytime.

[ He blinks. This is becoming an inside joke now, with how serious he says it-- ] Oh, and I'm not hitting on you right now.
threatmewted: ([Smug] when things get going)

[personal profile] threatmewted 2023-10-16 06:06 am (UTC)(link)
[He can steal it, please stop this menace.]

Pass.

[Her tone is completely flat as she moves her plate close like that would at all prevent him from just, like, reaching over and nicking some back.]
tylorific: (equation of kindness)

[personal profile] tylorific 2023-10-16 07:13 am (UTC)(link)
[ Tylor laughs a little at that, popping the stolen good into his mouth. A beat, a swallow (haha), and he keeps talking. ]

You must really like shabu shabu too though, huh?
threatmewted: ([Neutral] done now)

[personal profile] threatmewted 2023-10-17 12:03 am (UTC)(link)
Don't usually have it.

[Maybe that's why she's going for the best of the best...

No she's just a jerk.
]
tylorific: (well handled solutions)

[personal profile] tylorific 2023-10-17 12:49 am (UTC)(link)
Ever had it with friends before?

[ Instead of stealing from her plate, he tries to snatch one from the broth. Though... he also puts another one in to make up for it. ]
threatmewted: ([Ugh] just bound to happen)

[personal profile] threatmewted 2023-10-17 01:11 am (UTC)(link)
[Instead of answering that:]

Wow, rude.
tylorific: (galactic fool)

[personal profile] tylorific 2023-10-17 01:19 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, sorry.

[ He actually sounds genuine. ]

I thought we were playing a game.
threatmewted: ([Um] If this episode drives)

[personal profile] threatmewted 2023-10-18 03:49 am (UTC)(link)
Okay, I knew you were a dummy, but even that's stretching it.
tylorific: (equation of kindness)

[personal profile] tylorific 2023-10-18 05:20 am (UTC)(link)
Really? But isn't it fun to try and see who can get it first?
threatmewted: ([Smug] Keep runnin' runnin')

[personal profile] threatmewted 2023-10-18 06:15 am (UTC)(link)
Nope, it's definitely fun to get the food totally unchallenged.
