[Zatanna appears with a smile on her face and a...rabbit on her head.   No, not the same one that seems to have been going around from person to person.  This one was actually stuffed.  Cute in its own right, but very much nonliving.  Still, she didn't want to feel left out in the festivities.  Plus, she had her own reasons for donning it.  One that, believe it or not, involved neither tophats not magic tricks.]

Funny story.

I checked the calendar, and it looks like national all-you-can-eat day is coming up   [Translation: Thanksgiving.]  It's a great opportunity for me to flex my amazing cooking skills...but I'm almost starting to run out of ideas.  Want to keep things fresh each year, you know?

Anybody here got any favorite recipes that might offer a fun challenge?  I'm open.  I'll even cook meat.

[She won't eat it, of course, but she'll cook it.]

Comments

[risingwinds]

Nope, but I think I know who you're talking about!

[Oh, his grin's growing. Silly puns are... well, fun.]

Why, does he like making puns, too?

[backwordscompatible]

That would be putting it mildly.

I'd like to say I've been a bad influence on him...but, at this point, it's hard to tell who's influenced who.

[risingwinds]

Aw, but you don't seem that bad to me!

[Unless... Hmmm...]

Or d'you have a dark side you hide from everybody? Some kinda big secrets that only he knows about?

[It's said teasingly; really, he doesn't expect that, but this is the kinda thing Terra might poke fun about lightly. Terra sure likes teasing him, anyway.]

[backwordscompatible]

[Ah, but, see if there was one thing she was better at than wordplay, it was teasing. As evident by the wink that followed.]

Well, if I told you, they wouldn't be secrets anymore, would they?

[risingwinds]

[But, see, now he actually thinks there is a secret, and now he's giving a little pout.]

Aw, c'mon! Now I've gotta know.

[backwordscompatible]

[Let it be known, Ventus, that everything that happens from this moment on is completely your fault.]

Are we dating?

[risingwinds]

[...He asked for this, but he did not expect this.

And now his eyes go even wider than before, and he just sorta gapes for a few seconds, because what?]

Huh?! Where'd that even come from?

[Someone... didn't realize she was dating anybody, 'cause his mind operates on friendship. WHOOPS.]

[backwordscompatible]

[WHOOPS]

Hey, you're the one trying to find out my deepest, darkest secrets.

[risingwinds]

...Okay, that's fair.

[Just give him a second while he sheepishly scratches his cheek.]

So, uh... Is this the part where I congratulate you guys?

[backwordscompatible]

[She chuckled. The game was over, it sounded like.]

Only if you want. Although I'm pretty sure that wasn't my point.
