Pasta Dinner Night -- Open to All

[renegadedriving]

Characters: Anyone who wants in!
When: April 7, 2013, 6pm onwards
Where: The communal kitchen
What: Shepard hosts a communal dinner to make sure all the kids are okay, but adults and digimon are welcome as well!

[There's a good chance Shepard is going to regret emptying her wallet later, but for now, she's armed with a massive quantity of uncooked pasta and a bunch of jars of red sauce, along with butter and salt just in case of picky eaters. She'd normally just make the same thing for everyone, but she's dealing with what could be very young, very frightened children, so it's best to err on the side of caution.]

[She settles into the kitchen at 6, and after banishing Monodramon to their apartment (he's still in trouble for the incident with Gomamon), sets about to cooking.]

[If you show up early, you'll find her manning a large number of cooking pots full of heating sauce and boiling water. If you're on time, you'll find Shepard handing out plates of pasta and offering a choice between sauce or no sauce, then herding you to a table filled with anyone who got here before you. Why not get to mingling? There's enough food and company to go around, tonight.]

[Gizamon sits back, slurping up a long noodle and then smacking her lips with delight.]

'chu say something Kaldur?

. . .

Are you...enjoying the food?

Yeah, it's great. Why? Don't you like it? You haven't even touched it yet.

[His lip twitches, he's about to break into a grin.] I have not had the chance yet.

[headup_stickontheice]

[To stifle his laughter, Cam starts to eat his own pasta, licking his lips, and.] ...You helped make this? S'really good.

[acceptedburden]

I only boiled the water and added the noodles. It was not the hardest part of the meal. But thank you.

[headup_stickontheice]

Better than me. Last time I boiled water it boiled over.

[acceptedburden]

[He smiles slightly.]

I see. I never considered myself a cook, but I had not tried before this either.

[headup_stickontheice]

Natural talent?

[acceptedburden]

I think I'll wait and see if I can do more than boil water before making that declaration.

[headup_stickontheice]

Those Damemon sure like to...cook. [Slurp.] You might not get much of a chance to.

[acceptedburden]

I am sure they would not mind exploring a new hobby. Although, there might not be time for such things.

[He did have more pressing concerns besides learning how to cook.]

[headup_stickontheice]

R- right, we're supposed to...save the world.

[Extreme reservations about that.]

[acceptedburden]

A large task. [Kaldur sensed that Cam was nervous or apprehensive about it.] Perhaps it would help not to think of it in such terms? Focus on staying safe and working with your partner at the moment.

[headup_stickontheice]

[Before Cam can answer, Lucemon, who's got spaghetti hanging from her mouth, reaches over and hugs him, sideways. He starts.] No need to worry about that! I'm sticking here with Campbell, no matter what!

[Nervous smile, shrug.] Y-yeah, she's...friendly.

[acceptedburden]

[He smiles and replies slightly teasingly.]

That is good, though I imagine you do not need to always be quite that close.

[headup_stickontheice]

[A soft hmph! and she snuggles Cam more.] I'm cuddly.

It's sorta nice, sometimes. [Cam laughs just a little bit.]
