First Study Session

[lockdownmods]

The second week is almost over and it seems as though maybe things will be just fine. You wake on this Friday as fine as any other. And even as you go through the Dormitory, everything seems to be just fine.

But once you step outside...

You've been waiting for this to happen, you were warned from the beginning that it possibly could. And yet, you'd hoped that you wouldn't have to worry. That everyone would stand strong, together against this stupid test.

Unfortunately that doesn't seem to be the case.

Try not to drop the waffles, Kurusu.

[ He's worried, but he thinks that it would probably be better... just to leave him be for now. Shirou isn't exactly the best at comforting people given that he's a mess himself, but. This is the best he can do.

For now, anyway.

He can deal with the rest a little later. Maybe tomorrow, once they've found the bastard that did this. ]

[covertizer]

I'm not going to waste food, don't worry.

[ He can't catch killers on an empty stomach. And, y'know. Waffles.

They're good. ]

[swordsinternally]

Well... good. I'd probably be more concerned if you did.

[covertizer]

Can't do anything on an empty stomach. Especially not figure out how someone was killed.

[ Or even be sad. Well. That's not entirely true but... it doesn't seem right not to keep going. ]

[swordsinternally]

That's true. By the way, if you want anything specific for lunch-- I can see if we have the ingredients for it. It's probably best to have food that people like than food people absolutely hate for this sort of thing.

[covertizer]

...

I could try making curry. If you wanted.

[ It'd be something to do, to keep him busy and not overthinking everything that has happened. ]

It'd be enough for everyone, and something... I guess communal?

[swordsinternally]

Oh, yeah, you said you knew how to make that... I don't mind. I'd be interested in seeing you cook curry, anyway.

[ Since he might learn something new even if he knows how to make curry himself, but recipes can vary. ]

[covertizer]

[ he has all the secrets. the best curry secrets. or, y'know. some of them. ]

You sure? It feels a bit like I'm invading your domain now.

[swordsinternally]

I don't mind at all. Sakura takes over the kitchen a lot back home, so I'm used to it... not to mention that I really do think it'd be fun to see how other people cook.

[covertizer]

Alright then.

If not today, soon. I'll make everyone some curry.

I wouldn't get your hopes up though - curry and coffee are about the one two things I'm really good at making, and even then I was still learning different ways to improve my curries from Sojiro-san.

[swordsinternally]

I think specializing in one thing... means that maybe one day you'll be the curry master, unlike me, who doesn't really specialize too much on any one type of food.

[covertizer]

Yeah but everything you make tastes good? That's just general masterhood.

[ ... ]

Although if I get a badge or something that says "Curry Master" that'd make it a little more impressive.

[swordsinternally]

Ahaha... you think so? I feel like there's still a lot that I can learn. Although if I taste your curry, I can make that badge for you.

[covertizer]

True, but everything you've made here so far has been good. So that's a pretty good track record.

[ Ooh. ]

If it's good enough for it, make it a nice and shiny one, please!

[swordsinternally]

I'd think it would be pretty bad for myself if I honestly didn't make good food...

[ Since he did live on his own for a good amount of time. ] I'll make sure to grab all the materials for something nice and shiny, Kurusu.

[covertizer]

[ S H I N Y. ]

I'll look forward to it. If I manage to impress you enough with it.

[swordsinternally]

Then I guess you'll just have to do your best when making that curry.

[covertizer]

Challenge accepted.
