Accidental Valentine's Dinner

[the_fourteenth]

WHO: Open log for one and all
WHAT: Raidou is making you all dinner.
WHERE: Base cafeteria and commons
WHEN: Evening of Feb. 14th
WARNINGS: N/A

Everyone could use something nice after that kaiju fight, and what better than a real meal? It won't be easy to cook for so many people, but Raidou is willing to try. He makes sure to get permission to use the kitchen and the commons space, and recruits a few friends to help get it all together.

It's not an easy feat to get all the ingredients together, especially in the aftermath of a kaiju attack, so it won't be the most resplendent meal the Outsiders ever had. But if nothing else, he can make the broth and noodles for some ramen, and get as many vegetables together as he can to fill it out. It takes him several days to make what he hopes is enough, and hopefully no one raiding the fridges will take any of it in the meanwhile. He's not the world's greatest cook, but this surprisingly domestic devil summoner is good enough to make something delicious. It's not like Narumi was ever doing any of the cooking back home, so someone had to do it.

Early on Wednesday, everyone would have gotten a text saying that dinner will be at 1900 hours in the common area, and he comes straight home from school to work on putting it all together. Anyone is welcome to help cook or set the tables, and once it's ready, people can line up to get a bowl of their own to take. People are also welcome to bring their own food or drink if they have any they want contribute. Who's got dessert?

After dinner entertainment will be provided by Yuji Itadori, who has managed to find a small projector to use on the commons wall. All the tables and chairs will get rearranged to cram everyone in. Get close, okay? The first feature will be a comedy, and the second will be a horror movie.



OOC: Happy Valentine's Day, Outsiders. Raidou only just learned today what that is, whoops. If your character doesn't have any hot dates planned in a city recently smashed by monsters and tsunamis, then drop in a top-level comment, have a seat and enjoy some soup and some team bonding. Check up on your teammates after their first big battle.

[ To Nanami, it's an assessment. He doesn't like flattery, which can be insincere and manipulative, things that he refuses to do to anyone. He gives his opinions as honestly and strictly as he can, wanting to offer only what he would want to receive himself, without any misleading.

Taryon might not be a frontline expert, but he handled himself just fine. Better than a lot of people who might have been thrown in their position without warning. That earns him Nanami's respect. ]

That's a good idea. If we're going to be facing monsters that can dive underwater or fly, then we'll need a way to actually reach them. I'll count on you for that.

[ Give him wings, Tary. ]

[likemybooks]

[What does he look like, a god doling out favors to his loyal followers? Nanami won't literally have awesome wings he can deploy during combat, but...] Then I'll have some flying coins ready if they're in the air, if you don't already have LILITH's flying boots. They're pretty handy, if you have the money for that.

[But enough about that - his skills are needed for those who cannot afford upgrades.]

I've got things that make you faster, too. Whatever you need, I can do it. [He says, overselling his limited number of spells he knows.]

[stresspoint]

[It's okay, Taryon, he won't expect miracles. Nanami will take whatever comes and make the best of it. He just trusts that Tary will be able to help him out enough to make the fight go easier. That's really all he can ask of him anyway.]

Mm. I suppose they have their useful items too. It doesn't hurt to prepare both.

[He'll have to think about buying more upgrades, but that's a question for later.]

Thank you.

[likemybooks]

It's nothing. [It means a lot to Taryon, judging by his smile.] I'm doing what can to pull my weight.
