Week Three Afterparty - How we'll drink until we're kind, searching for our wasted time

[goldenmaniac]

It had been a strange day - while they were no fewer in number than they had been the day before, the guests had learned a harsh lesson. That no one, even a dear friend, could be trusted when the power of a Witch was concerned. That Misfortune could not be avoided forever.

They had seen a glimpse of the Witch's true face, and all were shaken by the knowledge...🗈

No one was exactly eager to gather after the disgusting sight of Akira's execution. But drifting off to their own devices seemed too cold, so Takumi, almost frantic, set about making some light food for everyone. Mostly sandwiches, some rice and fish, soup... fare that would be easy on the stomache.

He didn't bother sending out notes. After three weeks everyone knew how this played out, and would arrive if they felt up to it. Or not.

Good.

[ Syaoran smiles a little softly in return as well. ]

Then I'll definitely teach you.

[goldenmaniac]

You just want another person around that can cook for you other than Watanuki-san.

[excavated]

... No, it's not like that. I think it'd be nice if we could cook together, actually.

[goldenmaniac]

[He turns a bit pink at that]

Yeah?

[excavated]

Yeah. I think it might actually be fun.

[goldenmaniac]

Then it's a-

[He manages to catch himself, coughing]

-a plan. As long as you don't mind me making a mess!

[excavated]

[ He laughs a little bit innocently, the whole thing going completely over Syaoran's head. ]

I wouldn't mind at all. There's probably aprons we can use, too.

[goldenmaniac]

Apron...

[Cute]

I'll make sure to leave my goggles in my room then. Scrubbing eggs off them is such a hassle.

[excavated]

Yeah, that'd be great, actually.

[goldenmaniac]

And I DID promise to make you snacks at some point.

[excavated]

Well, if we cook together next week, you won't be breaking that promise. And it'll be a lot of fun.

[goldenmaniac]

Plus we... we have to still try and have fun, you know?

[excavated]

Yeah, we do. We can't always be serious all the time. [ says the person who leans towards being serious a Lot of the time ]

[goldenmaniac]

You're one to talk.

[excavated]

Is that bad. . .?

[goldenmaniac]

Heh no, it's just who you are, so it's okay. I'll just have to make sure you have fun sometimes.

[excavated]

[ He'll take that as a... compliment, maybe? ]

I'd really appreciate that. I guess that's something you can teach me, Takumi.
