The Cooking Meme!

Cooking is a daily part of life. You don't always think about it, but even when preparing the same meal, it's never quite the same each time. Cooking can be wonderful and relaxing or completely horrifying. For some it's very personal and for others it's just another part of the day...

3. OH GOD HELP ME Oh God Oh God Oh God You have to cook dinner for a party/your in-laws/your visiting family/whoever and it's so much and it's super important but there's no time Oh God. But luckily your wonderful, brilliant and incredibly good looking best friend ever will help you, right?

[Normally, she would tell him to shut the hell up, but...he's actually pretty good at this. And, okay, so classic rock isn't really her thing, but still. He sounds good.]

[burnthemall]

[He's a good singer, better when he belts it out but this is fun right now.]

You done cutting up those peppers?

[chromatist]

[She pushes the cutting board towards him. They're in perfect neat little piles, not quite minced but almost.]

[burnthemall]

Eh, not bad.

[He chucks a handful in before grabbing the pan to warm it up and melt the butter.]

[chromatist]

[She cheerfully flips him off and goes back to tapping away at her phone, blatantly ignoring the whole "no phones in school" rule.]

[burnthemall]

Hey, you could help.

[chromatist]

"You prepare the stuff and I'll fucking cook it," [she parrots, still looking at her phone.] It's prepared. Now you cook.

[burnthemall]

Except, you know, there's no side dish like toast. Or a fruit salad. Could do something like that and get some extra points here.

[chromatist]

Ugh, really? [She looks around the room, their station, grimacing.]

[burnthemall]

Yeah, really. Unless you want to do the hard work.

[chromatist]

[Heaving a hugely pained sigh, like this is some kind of horrible imposition, Lydia sets to chopping up some fruit for the salad. This, at least, she can do with startling precision.]

[burnthemall]

[He laughs at her. There's no reason why she should be that put out.]

You're spoiled aren't you?

[chromatist]

[The laughing really isn't helping anything.]

I don't like doing things that I deem to be unnecessary.

[burnthemall]

You want to pass the class right?

[Hansel isn't here to make friends.]

[chromatist]

A fruit salad is not necessary to pass.

[If he actually says that to her face, she's going to laugh. Loudly.]

[burnthemall]

Bonus points! Extra credit. A step up and beyond.

[chromatist]

[She gives him a long, hard look, before going back to dicing apples.]

Don't burn the omelet.

[burnthemall]

Please.

[He's already got the perfect crust developed and now he executes the perfect three fold omelet. He's incredibly pleased with himself. He does this all the time.]

[chromatist]

[She gives him a look like he's executing perfect witchcraft, but doesn't deign to reply. Instead, she sets to work plating her salad. She may not be much of a cook, but Lydia is enough of a perfectionist that anything she does make is going to look like it came out of a glossy magazine.]

[burnthemall]

[He flips it onto a plate, adds a dash of herbs and steps back to admire his handiwork.]
