[Video] Candy-making machismo

[topgun_textiles]

[Setting: Kitchen. The arrangement of kitchen tools, handmade homey art and a surprising number of hung-up aprons and oven mitts dot and decorate the room. This had to be some kind of studio for a cooking show, right? A guy that looks like this can't possibly have a cute kitchen, right?

Yet adorned in his black, skull-printed apron, brandishing a pair of whisks like weapons, none can know what's truly real anymore... but he slammed the handles down and gave the camera an intense stare.]


A'right, punks, listen up!

Y'got a little over a week before Valentine's Day, and a lotta you might not have any ideas on what to give people, and people are counting on you, damn it! It ain't just dragon gods and shit-talking green cloud bastards out there, y'know!

[He set his jaw and smirked.]

I'm here to help you guys out in gettin' better at talkin' to each other! Friday, this Friday, I got space set aside in the Curti Center to teach anybody n' everybody - that includes you guys who just got picked up from the Dream Width earlier today - how to make chocolates! White truffles, milk truffles, dark truffles... hell, we'll make some cookies, too.

Don't worry about materials or things to box or bag 'em in. I got you covered in all that. Just bring yourselves to the cafeteria, 'bout 2 after lunch gets out.

[He balled a fist.] Now let's make some cute shit and make some friends, damn it!

Consider this my RSVP.

[It's a terse response, but Ravus is trying, at least.]

[topgun_textiles]

Awesome. See you there.

[mech_and_mutt]

Forget the truffles, where'd you get that apron??

[topgun_textiles]

[A proud flex in reply.]

I made it! S'got extra pockets and loops to hold a lotta tools.

[modelcivilian]

Sure! I'd love to learn how to make chocolates!

[topgun_textiles]

Hell yeah! And now you have time to think of what you want to make, too.

[Valentine's isn't quite a holiday Chara has much interest in. They'd honestly be happy to ignore it, save from maybe teasing some of the people they knew about it.

Chocolate, however. That immediately peeks their interest.]

That's awfully nice of you. Sure there's nothing we can do to pay you back?

[topgun_textiles]

Don't worry about it. Pick up a new skill and do whatever you want with it, man.

[bladeofconquest]

That sounds like a lot of fun and I'm loving your enthusiasm, Kanji.

I'm in.

[topgun_textiles]

Awesome. Get pumped, I got molds for people who want to make shapes!

[Already a decent baker herself, Elena can't pass up the opportunities to learn a new skill and make something she's never made before. It helps that the 'teacher' has one hell of a personality too.]

I'd like to RSVP to this event.

[topgun_textiles]

Roger that. I'll see you there! If you got any questions about whatever, I got my iMog glasses on me so I'm keeping tabs.

[Making chocolate? Can me and Luta come?]

[Johnny's a half-decent cook, but he's never done much in the way of baking or confections. Eh, why not? He can make something for Reno for Valentine's Day then.]

do we need to reserve a spot or anything?

text;

[topgun_textiles]

Nope. I got plenty of seats!

[littlemhigan]

I ain't much've a cook, but if ye don't mind me makin' a fool of meself in the kitchen, I wouldn't mind a lesson.

[topgun_textiles]

No shame. Besides, I'm teachin' ya, so nobody's gonna fail or set the Curti Center on fire or anything!


...I got a Black Mage Asterisk with water magic. Seriously. Fires ain't gonna happen on my watch.

[pidgeypidge]

Valentine's Day's not really my thing, but count me in.

[Honestly, Valentine's Day was probably the furthest thing from her mind. But it might be nice to find a distraction, if only for an afternoon.

And it might even be nice to branch out and try something new.]

[topgun_textiles]

Free chocolate's free chocolate! Make nice shit for yourself or your friends.

I would also like to RSVP this event.

I cannot consume organic food however, so I will require a taste tester to tell me if my creations are successful.

[Text]

[topgun_textiles]

No sweat: Got a volunteer taste tester. I'll point them out to the class when the time comes.

[whirluendo_of_puns]

anyone ever told you you'd make an amazing life coach??

anyway i'll be there for sure!

[topgun_textiles]

I've been getting stuff like that a lot. I have no idea what I'm doing!

[singerofspells]

I thought Valentine's Day was a human holiday for...

[what was the human idiom...]

boyfriends and girlfriends?

[voice]

[topgun_textiles]

Sure, but it doesn't always have to be! You can always give something nice to somebody you care about without wanting to go out with 'em.
