[Cookerin' all day every day]

[bloodyashes]

Setting: The poor, unfortunate cafeteria kitchens.
Characters: Lineface (Narukami), Bugface (Asch) and YOU.
Summary: Follow-up to Rise’s network post: COOK ALL THE THINGS!
Format: Whatever. If you want only one of the boys, specify in comment title.
Warnings: It is a redhead and a bowlcut. Snark in the kitchen is inevitable.

[And so once again, to the kitchens. There’s a certain irony in what Rise said, even if it’s not actually true, because hadn’t Asch joked about exactly this with Guy before the blond disappeared for good?

Whether it’s true or not, it’s better safe than sorry. That’s why they’re down here, sorting the flowers and other plants out from everything else, just in case. Especially since, if memory served correctly, this had happened before during one of Riki’s months last year. Of course, they aren’t just there for providing edible substances... but likely to give a few pointers as well if you aren’t exactly up to par with them and along the lines of mystery “food” X.]

[Minato looks at Asch, nodding at him.]

Hello, Asch-san. [Hope Asch doesn't mind the honorific. It's normal for Minato to use, until he's told otherwise.] And I think I get along with Yu fairly well.

[For one thing, Minato's not Richtofen.]

[pitiedthefool]

[If he did then there would have already been situations with Yu using them as well.]

We do. [Wait for it...] After all, he isn't a scientist who has a penchant for zombies.

[And they all know who that is.]

[bloodyashes]

[Congrats, Narukami, you made him chuckle.]

From what I've seen of him, he's as bad as the one in the flying chair.

[Why are all his coworkers crazy? Except Largo. Largo's cool.

At this point, though, the dough is dough enough that Asch can extract his hands for a minute and - after dusting off some flour - offer one to Minato to shake.]

[evokingfool]

[Minato raise a brow at that, before holding out his hand to shake Asch's.]

A flying chair?

[That sounds awesome. But it seems like whoever made it is as bad as Richtofen.

And that's saying something.]

[pitiedthefool]

[Yu was going to ask about that too, so instead he just raises an eyebrow.]

Well, that's different.

[Please tell. Because it sounds awesome with a side of "it's another mad scientist, isn't it."]

[bloodyashes]

[So much mad science. So much.]

You're familar with his more famous creation already, Narukami. It was Dist who took the principles of fomicry that Jade thought out, and made the machines that made it actually possible.

[A small displeased noise - not his favorite coworker, by far, even removed from replica trauma.]

It's generally accepted that he's halfway mad. He may also be part cockroach.

[evokingfool]

[Ah, a mad scientist.]

I assume this fomicry is specific to your world. [Unless the scientific world discovered something and he haven't found out.]

Part cockroach...in what way, persistence and endurance?

[Is he the kind of person to keep staying alive?]

[pitiedthefool]

Considering the people we know... [Yeah, he has a feeling they don't like to stay down.]

[bloodyashes]

It's the science of creating replicas.

[And yes, Minato, that's all you get - Narukami can figure out why it's important to Asch on his own. It's not exactly hard.]

And that about sums it up.

[evokingfool]

[Science of creating replicas. That sound interesting, if potentially complicated.]

Seems like an almost universal trait.

['cuz, uh, the scientists he knows of from his world were kinda dead.]

[pitiedthefool]

[That it does.]

Almost.

[Because hey, not like he knows any. :'D]
