Viewing Party 2 - R3: THE RE-CRY-ENING

[misanthropicprinciple]

We got castmates. We got clues. We got crap to bitch about. They get a library? And a LAUNDRY MACHINE?

Welcome, murderfam... TO THE R3 LIVEWATCH.

I picked up on that, too. The second thing.

[She gives him a little smile. It's friendly ribbing at most.]

Have a cookie, okay? They're lemon and herbs. Mister Ein said they were safe to eat.

[scourgingstars]

I'll have you know my sarcasm is carefully practiced and refined. It's an art form few truly master or appreciate.

[Joking around was leagues better than everything yesterday had been, at least. Ardyn picked up one of the cookies and took a bite, looking impressed.]

...Did you make these?

[cyan_maid]

[She nods, that smile of hers widening.]

An heiress to a baked goods empire should rightly know how to bake from scratch, shouldn't she? Even if there's no corporate empire to inherit anymore, that's no excuse to put a beloved skill to waste.

[scourgingstars]

That is quite the valuable skill. It's good to know some of us know their way around a kitchen--I'm still working on that myself.

[cyan_maid]

Well, you've got time and a kitchen and, so I've been told, a good number of fantastic cooks to learn from. [He could even make his boyfriend a dinner if he wanted, that'd be cute.

And, thinking of this other sad man...]

If Church doesn't want to come out, and if he'd eat what I cook, do you...think you could bring him some cookies for me? Please? So he doesn't miss them.

[scourgingstars]

I did ask Yuuri to teach me a few things when she had time. Hopefully it won't be too disastrous.

[with any luck nothing will catch fire]

...I think he might like that. Either way, I'll be sure to look after him.

[cyan_maid]

[You'll be okay if it's Yuuri]

Ah, thank you...I don't think he and I are on the best of terms, but...it's like I told you, I can't help it - I want to help.

[scourgingstars]

...I know the feeling.

[ha]

Don't worry too much. All of us have come this far, so we'll be fine.

[cyan_maid]

[hahaha]

Right. [A nod.] But...overall. Still. Cookies can help. They may not be the sweetest, most fun cookies, but this is not the appropriate situation for sweet and fun cookies.

[scourgingstars]

Heavens forbid we have inappropriately-flavored cookies.

[cyan_maid]

[That gets her to chuckle, just a bit. Stop being endearing, Ardyn, this is how you got a redemption arc.]

I should probably try to make some that pair better with the drinks next time. As is, these probably taste their best with the tea.
