[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??

[modelcivilian]

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

[topgun_textiles]

[A proud flex in reply.]

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

[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]

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

[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.

[4got10]

If we need it, I humbly volunteer to be a taste test judge, as well.

[topgun_textiles]

Fair enough. Hit me up a little before the class and I can point you out as taste tester.

[topgun_textiles]

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

[4got10]

Trust me you'll see me coming.

[Text]

[bladeofconquest]

Yes, sir! Getting pumped, sir!

[modelcivilian]

Yeah. I'm gonna have to think about that.

[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.

[wind_in_my_ears]

[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!

[mech_and_mutt]

Figures. Every time I see you on Mognet, you're wearin' got some new costume.

Now, you were saying somethin' about free food? This isn't gonna be like that scene at the Gourmand's guild hall, is it?

[topgun_textiles]

I got all the materials, so if you got some extra after you're done makin' presents, sure. That's free food.

[mech_and_mutt]

...Yeah.

[Come to think of it, handmade chocolates would be a pretty good present...]

What about you? Are you makin' 'em for someone?

[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]

[He tightened up immediately, drummed his fingers over the countertop and looked away from the camera.]

W-well... yeah...! But I ain't gonna say what or she'll figure it out!
