[Console][Audio] 2nd Donut Eaten

[croissaunt]

A-tten-tion everyone! For a limited time, the Hotel will be serving:

Ice. Cream.

[It took a while to perfect these recipes, folks, which is why it's near the end of the month. She had to find the closest equivalents she could to the flavors she wanted to use. Some of which are her idea and others that were suggestions.]

We have four flavors in limited quantities--vanilla, green tea, sea salt, and honey lavender! Get them whiiiile they last!

Honey lavender?

audio

[croissaunt]

Something different.

audio

[pushtheboundaries]

I see.

[beat]

Describe the taste?

audio

[croissaunt]

Lightly sweet with a floral undertone. It's quite good!

audio

[pushtheboundaries]

I think I may have to find this out for myself.

audio

[croissaunt]

Good! I'd be worried if you were afraid to try new things.

audio

[pushtheboundaries]

Cass...I'm a scientist, a teacher, and a father.

If I was afraid of trying new things, I'd have been in trouble a long time ago.

[bigdamnhiro]

[Just. This face.

Don't talk shit til' you try it dude]

[pushtheboundaries]

[he ain't talking shit he's just kind of

well seriously]

[bigdamnhiro]

Oh my god, yes.

[He's small and sweaty and actually going to die pls give him ice cream Aunt Cass]

[croissaunt]

[The first is Hiro's semi-permanent state until puberty really starts. Ice cream can help the other two a bit, though!

Also no matter what, Cass is saving some aside for her kids. She won't let them go without in this heat.]

Which flavor would you like?

[You're allowed to say all of them.]

[And Robert wants Tadashi to give up his job at the Hotel. Well if he gave up his job at the Hotel, he wouldn't be around to claim first dibs on that delicious, homemade ice cream, would he? Desk job officially justified for another day.

So the first person to wander in for some ice cream will be one of her beloved nephews. The cool thing is that since she used the console and he was actually working, he has no idea of exactly what she's been up to. So here's one hat-free (because professionalism, and also it's hella hot) and kinda sweaty Tadashi lingering by the doorway and looking adorably hopeful.]

... Is that what I think it is?

[croissaunt]

[In Tadashi's defense, ice cream is the best justification.

You don't even want to know how it's like working in a hot kitchen these days. But she's endured. But there isn't a lot of time before this poor ice cream melts once she scoops some out of the freezer.]

Ice cream? Why yes, yes it is.

[denyamenti]

[ The first two he's heard of, but the second two are new. ]

Ice cream comes in that kind of flavour?

video;

[croissaunt]

It does when you make it your-self!

Re: video;

[denyamenti]

[ gdit Cass, you're actually going to lure him to the Hotel, aren't you? ]

It would be an affront not to at least try them, if you went through the trouble.

audio

[unetrustworthy]

[Consider her interest piqued.]

Where did it come from?

audio

[croissaunt]

My mind... And the Hotel kitchen.

audio

[unetrustworthy]

I didn't know the Hotel kitchen kept ice cream.

[Then again, she rarely spent time in the kitchen. And when she did, she already had her own ingredients to prepare.]

audio

[croissaunt]

It doesn't--it's my special treat!

audio

[unetrustworthy]

Oh.

[When she'd originally said my mind, Midii had assumed she meant she'd thought of the idea to go looking for some. But in this context...]

You mean you made it?

audio

[croissaunt]

I do! I'm working in the Hotel kitchen right now. I have a café back home.

audio

[unetrustworthy]

[She couldn't even imagine. Not just had access to a cafe, but owned one. Which meant she could've had her fill of any kind of baked goods it provided pretty much whenever she wanted.]

I've...never had homemade ice cream before.

Is it similar to what they serve in the shops?

[wolfstrike]

Ice cream, huh? I'm there.

[Yuri is not questioning the flavors. At least not until he tries them. His sweet tooth overrides all. They have weird tastes in Tales land anyway.]

[croissaunt]

That's what I'm here for!

action??

[insertdadjoke]

[ Cain's not even gonna bother replying on the console. He'll just come right down to the kitchen to check out the offerings. He's been around the Hotel for a bit by now, orchestrating the bedding and some of the rotation of those seeking shelter from the heat; even if he looks only slightly older than college age, he's been pretty much on the ball the entire time. ]

Someone said ice cream. There any left?
