That sounds like fun! I'm sure they'll like it. Do you need to gather ingredients, then? Or did you have some already?

[fleshedout]

I have some already. I came prepared.

[Gives Su a thumbs up.]

It might take some time to make, though.

[countermeasures]

I've got plenty of time today, so if you'd like some help with the baking...

[fleshedout]

[A nod.]

Of course. I always appreciate your help. Probably need to get the pie crusts ready first. I got some from the grocery store.

[countermeasures]

[she nods! and goes looking through the supplies to find the pie crusts hot pants got.]

[fleshedout]

[There's some regular ones! But one is chocolate.]

Ah, that's for Riff. I want to make a chocolate pie.

[countermeasures]

[she nods and sets that one aside!]

I think he'll like that.

[fleshedout]

Mm.

[She's going to start setting out cans of things, as well as tinfoil pans.]

Do you cook often at home, Su?

[countermeasures]

I'm usually busy with the clinic... my mother handles most of the cooking. Oh, but sometimes we'll go to a restaurant.

[fleshedout]

Anything in particular you like from your mother's cooking? I remember you drawing her a little while back.

[countermeasures]

Her homemade pastries are the best!

[fleshedout]

[Oh, cute.]

What kind did she make?

[countermeasures]

Oh, a whole bunch of different kinds!

[canon never gave me specific fillings,,,]

[fleshedout]

How about this. Let's make some in honor of your mom, okay?

[She means it.]

[countermeasures]

[oh.

jiuqing is clearly touched by that.]

...I like that idea a lot.

[fleshedout]

[A light smile.]

Teach me how to do it, and I'll follow your lead.

[countermeasures]

All right, so we'll start like this...

[insert directions here



which like. i don't know how to make them either but we're gonna pretend a very detailed recipe was in this meta text]

[fleshedout]

[what a stunningly complicated recipe i just read right now]

You have a good memory. It sure has a lot of steps.

[countermeasures]

I used to watch her make them all the time... I hated having to wait for them to be ready! I just wanted to eat them!

[fleshedout]

...

[She laughs.]

Maybe we'll have to make them quicker for you so you won't have to wait.

[countermeasures]

I don't know that we can! They need time to cook... if we take it out too soon the dough will be raw and it won't taste right.

[fleshedout]

So it's a waiting game either way...oh well.

Guess good things come with necessary prices.

[countermeasures]

I suppose so...

[she


hates waiting, though.

i keep thinking about the vending machine in 7r and how jiuqing would have visited it like 20 times a day if i'd apped her there instead of here.]

[fleshedout]

[JIUQING IN 7RINGS..... [her kicking limbo's ass]

We'll just sit and remind ourselves of how good it will taste when its out. I'll be patient for you.

[countermeasures]

...thank you, Miss Hot Pants.
