S'mores! And a Request

Subject: S'mores! And a Request

Hello, everyone!

Since there are so many new dreamwalkers who've just arrived, I thought it might be nice to encourage everyone to get together and meet! There is a communal firepit in a clearing just outside of the residential area where I've got a fire going, and I have plenty of supplies to make "s'mores," which I only just learned about recently. (Thank you, Miss Tifa!) If you haven't had this before, please come and try it, it's delicious!

Additionally, I have a request for everyone to please keep an eye out for a few individuals... I realize that this may be in vain since their names did not appear in the directory, but just in case...

Colin
He is a tall, half-elven man with long, dark hair. He is very charismatic and funny and likely to be found busking with his lute somewhere or telling stories!

Aerie
Also tall, but fully an elf, very pretty and intelligent, also with dark hair (but not related to Colin!). She usually has three wolves with her. Extremely competent hunter!

Mellon
Also tall, also fully an elf, he usually does not wear a shirt. He loves to drink and might try to clear out any supply of alcohol... Please do not get into a tavern brawl with him.

Dae
Also tall, and also fully an elf, with white hair and red eyes. He is very good at magic and possibly would want to spar with you! Would likely have an owl familiar with him.

Cibark
Even taller and very very strong! He is a half-orc with green skin and usually wears armor and wields large weapons. He has a very dashing and heroic aura about him!

Sian
Not tall! They usually wear a cloak and a mask. Usually quiet but very sassy. They might be flying around, but they also don't usually remember that they can do that.

[ Ori why are you always surrounded by tall people ]

If at any point in the future you come across anybody who seems to fit these descriptions, please let me know!

(( ooc: Naturally open to these moving into or starting as an action thread! Come get s'mores! Or not. I can't tell you what to do. ))

Ah? I wouldn't eat too many! I might, um. If I can take one or two home though. When I go, later.

[Because she is well aware Kero will probably complain if he misses out. Knowing what a glutton he is especially about sweets. It might be a little messy but maybe if she has a paper towel or something of the sort to wrap it in or something for the trip back home to give it to him.]

omg please let ori meet kero someday

[hearthwarming]

Oh! You want to take some home with you? That's perfectly all right!

[ Sakura says 'one or two,' but Ori will probably send her home with at least half a dozen for good measure. You're welcome, Kero-chan, wherever you are. ]

Do you like to eat sweets, too? Ah, it's been really nice being able to make more things like desserts, actually. I was always traveling on the road before coming here, so I couldn't really do that...

Kero is too obnoxious and proud and loud to be contained for too long lbr. He will reveal himself.

[keystaff]

I can? Ah, that's great! Thank you!

[For later. Clearly. Not for her tiny not-actually-a-stuffed-toy that is likely all but drooling in her bag. Sakura gives a nod to the question. It's hardly a secret she has a sweet tooth, for all that she does generally eat pretty well, decently healthily. She is just also a young girl and with that comes a particular fondness for sweets, even if she is less of a glutton than the likes of Kero.]

I do! I usually make more dinners or lunches than sweets but I do enjoy them!

[hearthwarming]

[ Ori clasps her hands together excitedly. It's sweet of Sakura to let Ori get to know her bit by bit like this, and she's thankful for the opportunity, especially when it leads to her learning that they have interests in common! ]

Wow! You seem so dependable, Sakura. Did you learn how to cook from your family?

[ She seems like she must have had such a warm, loving family, after all, just based on how much she seems to miss them. ]

[keystaff]

Dependable? Ah, I'm not sure on that....but yes! Sometimes, I'd be home first after school, while dad and onii-chan would be working. So I'd make dinner for everyone, ready for when they would be back home.

[It just made sense, given she would be the first to get home some afternoons. She might make more basic meals in comparison to them, in still learning and when younger, not being allowed to make certain dishes or the like but still.]

But we would also have cooking classes at school too! That was usually more sweets or desserts though. Like making cakes.

[hearthwarming]

[ She would most certainly count all of that towards being dependable by any measure, and Sakura's further description only solidifies that in Ori's mind. What a sweet young lady... ]

Ah, I can only imagine how nice it must have been for them to come home to a home-cooked meal by a family member.

Perhaps we can cook together, sometime! I'm sure it'll be a very different experience than what you're used to, but... I'm always happy to learn new recipes, and I might even be able to teach you one or two, if you'd like!

[keystaff]

Mine were more basic, compared to what onii-chan and dad can make. But it was something for them to come home to at least. Having it ready. But ah, I wouldn't mind if you wanted to try sometime! I'm not sure if you might be familiar with the sort of dishes I tend to make but we can teach each other?

[She does mostly tend to figure Japanese dishes. And of course it might be debatable how readily available some of the things she is used to having might be here but still. Even so. She isn't against the idea of maybe trying some new dishes.]
