[ The amount of sweets on the cafeteria menu was okay with Lithuania at first. He didn't particularly enjoy a sugar overdose, but every once in a while was alright. After the second meal of apple pie, ice cream, and root beer, he'd had enough and have taken it upon himself to make his own dishes. This proved difficult though when the kitchen was filled with mostly sugar, ice cream, and other ingredients that didn't really help him in making anything that wasn't a cavity waiting to happen. Apples, however, were a familiar fruit, and one he knew he could do a lot with.

In a small cloth sack he'd retrieved from his trunk, he'd packed a small lunch consisting of what he could make; apple kompot, a few apple sandwiches with sauteed oatmeal in a kind of sugar glaze, some of the pre-made apple pie, and then of course just the plain fruit itself. It proved to taste a little better than what was on the menu, he found, though he had made more than enough for one person.

Because the cafeteria proved proved dubiously filled with loudness, Lithuania had decided to try someplace else. After scaling nearly a dozen floors, he found Floor Ten, filled with water and fish floating around. It was magnificent and he couldn't help but marvel at it. It was quiet, though, and that was all he wanted. He sat on the base of the stairs, eating, wondering if the fish were hungry as well, since he knew HE couldn't eat all this food by himself... ]

[Poland was actually looking for Lithuania because that's what he does. Cling and never give him a moment's peace. He wasn't in their room so he was relieved to see him in the aquarium when he reached there.]

Oh my gosh, there you are. This stupid tower has too many rooms. Why'd you wander off? [Said like, you know, Lithuania has no right to do that without Poland's permission.]

Wait, did you make food?

[gandras.livejournal.com]

[ He'd like to say he's surprised. But he's not. ]

I didn't wander off, I'm just eating... [ He continues to do so, quite nonchalantly; he nods. ] I got tired of all the sugar. I wonder if these fish will eat pie crust...

[polishrule.livejournal.com]

[Poland sits next to him and takes one of the apple sandwiches without permission. He'd ask, but they're best friends and best friends don't need to ask so goes his logic.]

You should fill their tank with the kompot. It'd be seriously funny.

[gandras.livejournal.com]

[ He glances at him, wants to say something, then doesn't. It's no use starting anything and he really wants to just relax. ]

I think that might hurt the fish, more than anything else...

[polishrule.livejournal.com]

Or they'll be really thankful we gave them something yummy to drink. [Which Poland is taking a sip of himself. Being stuck in this tower does nothing for his manners.]

[gandras.livejournal.com]

But they have to breathe that you know. It wouldn't be good for them.

[ He cautiously throws a small corner of sandwich bread into the suspended water, quietly mystified by two of the larger fish going for it at the same time. ]

[polishrule.livejournal.com]

So then we make half of the water as water and the other half as kompot! See? Totally easy to fix. [And impossible, but oh wow, those fish actually are interesting.]

[gandras.livejournal.com]

Fish can't breathe anything BUT water. It might kill them. [ And no one wants a bunch of dead fish hanging around. He takes another sandwich half from the sack, noting the glaze should be thinner next time. ] These need more dill, I think.

[polishrule.livejournal.com]

[Poland's not paying much attention to what he's saying now as he watches the fish.] Do you think the fish are trapped here too?

[Ivan was near the fishes, having grown rather tired of the apples and the sweetness. Really, he did enjoy deserts and sweet beverages (when he wasn't drinking his vodka), but really, sweets and only sweets was a little ridiculous, even for him. And so, he had taken it on himself to find himself something else to eat. Something meat. And if the cafeteria wouldn't stock something that he found good, then he could find his own food.

In the form of fish.

At the very least he recognized a few of the fish as edible. He only wished he had a spear to help him. He certainly didn't wish to waste bullets on a few fish. And so he stood patiently, waiting for one of the creatures to come close enough that he could catch it. Though when the Lithuanian came, his eyes shifted from the wall of water, and he gave a small smile] Ah, privet, Toris~

[gandras.livejournal.com]

[ He looked up, doing a double take. The mere thought of the Russian still made him jump slightly and he couldn't help his drying throat. The impulse to address him formally was still hard to supress. ] Uh...ah. Sveiki, Russia....what are you doing here?

[vanavanushka.livejournal.com]

[Ivan frowned at the Lithuanian coming from the other's lips, missing the sound of his own language there, but then he could not really do anything about that anymore. Instead he gestured to the fish] I am getting something else to eat besides ice cream and sweets. And yourself? [Small smile]

[gandras.livejournal.com]

I'm just eating. [ He put his sandwich down and stood, feeling slightly weird sitting while Ivan was standing. ] Are you really going to try and eat these fish? I doubt they're here for eating...

[vanavanushka.livejournal.com]

[Ivan gave the Lithuanian a small smile and a tiny shrug, before his eyes looked back to the fish and he laughed] I do not think they are. But is that really mattering? I recognize some. And it cannot kill me either way. [he shook his head slowly, but kept smiling]

[gandras.livejournal.com]

[ He stares at those fish, wriggling around in ignorance. He feels innately bad for them ] How are you going to do it? If the fish can't get out then I really doubt you could either.

[vanavanushka.livejournal.com]

[Ivan only smiled and gave a tiny shrug] It is only taking little bit of patience, da? Just waiting for them to get little closer and then I can be getting them. [Smiles]

[gandras.livejournal.com]

I have food if that's what you really want. [ He looks at him sadly. ] You...you don't have to involve the fish!

[knightofangst.livejournal.com]

[Suzaku is in the kitchens, he has finally cracked and decided that he has to eat something other than ice cream. There has been ice cream served every meal every day since he arrived, so he is off to see if he can make something without ice cream in it. He sees the man and nods.] Hello.

[gandras.livejournal.com]

[ As he prepares his food, stirring something that looks vaguely like clear glaze in a bowl, Lithuania glances behind himself, politely acknowledging him. ]

Hello. Do you need something?

[knightofangst.livejournal.com]

[A shake of his head] No sir. [He starts looking through the cupboards]

[gandras.livejournal.com]

[ Another person in and about the room made the Lithuanian just a tad bit nervous as he slowly stirred his glaze. ] Are you sir? Are you looking for something?

yeh I totally misread your origional post and didnt see the bit about floor 10 SOB SORRY

[knightofangst.livejournal.com]

[Suzaku shrugs] I was wondering if there was anything that wasn't ice cream.

it's okay, holds you. we're just ~being flexible~ or something. also *sure

[gandras.livejournal.com]

[ Lithuania nods, understanding completely. ] I've looked and I don't think so. I'm having to make stuff with their ingredients, but it's pretty limited.

sure?

[knightofangst.livejournal.com]

[Suzaku sighs, he wasn't good at cooking, not without instruction anyways. He half wished Lelouch was here, Lelouch made delicious food. But that of course would mean Lelouch being here and not back at home (in a world that hadn't ended) and if Lelouch was here then Zero Requiem would have truly failed.]

I guess I can try to make something, though most of what is in here is sugar.

i typo'd up there (cry)

[gandras.livejournal.com]

[ You are preaching to the choir about the sugar thing. ] It'd help if you had meat because you could glaze it or candy it, but without it there's not much of a point. Uhm...sandwiches or simple dry cakes are the best way to go, I think.
