Hey, uh... you home? Wanted to drop something off real quick, but if you're busy I could always do it later.

[There is a sort of awkwardness that hovers along with his words, but it's more because Shinji is out of practice when it came to these kinds of things. He wasn't usually in the habit of visiting people either, but he'd been doing what he could to find distractions - and making tea for Auron was definitely one of them.]

lackofprotein: (♞ Hm? What is it?)
From: [personal profile] lackofprotein
[Auron doesn't get a reply immediately, if anything it took a few minutes before Shinji's voice came back just as awkward as before.]

Uh - yeah. I mean, it's no rush. Not like the tea's really goin' anywhere, so I can wait however long you need. [A pause, then.] Hope the job wasn't too difficult, though.

(ooc: Also feel free to timeskip in your tag! Or I can do it in the next one, whichever is easier. :> Just wanted to give him a chance to respond.)

[The box of tea is tucked neatly under his arm, when Auron opens the door. Though he seems like he wasn't really expecting it at all, given the blink of surprise. It's something that passes rather quickly, however, before he's lifting his free hand in greeting and moving to follow the older gentleman inside, once he allowed it.]

Yo. Sorry for bugging you, just seemed like the best time to drop this off.

lackofprotein: (♞ UH...)
From: [personal profile] lackofprotein
Dinner? You can cook?

[There is an immediate interest, but it's something he tries to conceal beneath his hat. He's already moving to place the box of tea down on the nearest table, however, before turning back around to look at Auron.]

But nah, don't want to intrude. I mean, you probably got more important things to do, right?

lackofprotein: (♞ Hm? What is it?)
From: [personal profile] lackofprotein
That so? Guess I can't say no when ya put it like that. The whole emotional thing's been kind of a pain in the ass for me too, so I understand.

[... Shinjiro may have had to throw away a few things, during some of his cooking escapades at the Spa.

But he's also genuinely curious about what Auron would even make, considering they aren't from the same world. If there was one thing that could make Shinjiro put up less of a fight, it was the idea of trying new foods. Especially if he could learn how to make it.

lackofprotein: (♞ I don't want to talk about it.)
From: [personal profile] lackofprotein
[Funny enough, the room seems to grow the tiniest bit brighter when Shinjiro sees what Auron made. He hadn't expected to see something so familiar, so though it was nothing exciting or new - he could still appreciate that small pang of nostalgia that hit him as thoughts of his best friend came to mind.

Hopefully wherever that idiot was, he was doing a good job of taking care of himself.
]

Simple's not a bad idea. Cooking's hard enough without all the unknown factors this place brings, and trying to figure out which flavors go best together or what to avoid completely, just means it's more time consuming when trying to make a bigger dish. [As he talks, he's moving closer to the table in order to get a better look at the meal, partly to judge it's general appearance - and yet... honestly even if it tasted bad, Shinji wouldn't have complained. Too much.]

Doesn't seem like the rice is overcooked, and you prepared the beef well enough. [Hm.] I'd say you didn't do too bad.

lackofprotein: (♞ oh no it's cute.)
From: [personal profile] lackofprotein
Uh - [Shit. He just started talking without thinking about it, so there's a slight rush of pink across his face as he moved to sit across from Auron.] A little. Just something I picked up 'cause it was necessary.

[Shinji then makes a point to shove the food into his mouth, having planned on just ending the topic there. Until the taste gets a pause long enough for a few sparkles to suddenly appear.]

... Huh. This is actually pretty good.

It is an amazing icon. '^'

lackofprotein: (❀ Hm... it's missing something.)
From: [personal profile] lackofprotein
[He listens to Auron talk, between taking bites of food and drinking occasionally from his glass. Part of him was also trying to evaluate and come up with any advice on how to improve, but for whatever reason there just wasn't anything that came to mind.

Whether it was nostalgia, or because the meal was such a familiar comfort to him, he couldn't help but feel like this was the best damn thing he's had in ages.
]

I doubt he'd have much reason to complain, if you put that much effort into taking care of him. Most people wouldn't go through all that trouble to start with over someone else's kid.

Date: 2017-03-29 08:26 am (UTC)
lackofprotein: (♞ Get lost.)
From: [personal profile] lackofprotein
I'd be surprised if he wasn't. You don't seem like the type of guy who'd do that for just 'bout anyone. [Then again, he didn't know Auron very well... something that crosses his mind as he casually stuffed his mouth with more food, before continuing.] Not that I'd judge or anything, if you were.

But I still think it's good that you cared enough to try and raise him on your own, no matter what the reasoning behind it was. Kids need to know there's somebody looking out of them, especially when it feels like they have no one, so you were probably more helpful than you're giving yourself credit for.

[He stops, realizing he was talking more than he'd meant and gave a short cough. Pretending that was more or less the reason on why he stopped, as he took a small sip of water before quietly adding in:]

Anyway, your cooking skills are fine.

Date: 2017-04-01 03:45 am (UTC)
lackofprotein: (♞ Sounds easy enough.)
From: [personal profile] lackofprotein
Ah - right, the tea. [He almost forgot to talk about that! Which is why he'll stop eating to cast a small glance towards the box, before attention shifted back to Auron with a nod.]

That'd be helpful. It's not hard to make, or anythin', but knowing which means I can focus on getting those ingredients. Lavender and chamomile are in most of them, but some of the locals offered a couple other herbs and suggestions on which ones mix well with some of the stuff they have here. [He'll start going into more details, mainly in terms of their flavors like: orange, vanilla, peppermint, etc. and will... probably continue unless Auron stopped him.]

Date: 2017-04-02 04:43 pm (UTC)
lackofprotein: (♞ Get lost.)
From: [personal profile] lackofprotein
Ya don't have to worry about getting that detailed, but if there's any combinations you think would taste good together, I'm not against it.

[Unless he's confident that it would taste horrible, but even then there's ways to work around that if needed be.]

But each bag has a label on it, so just pick the ones you like the most and tell me whenever you need more. Simple.
