Who: Duke and ANYONE
Where: Plaza
When: All week! Monday and Tuesday at intervvals but... just about any time day/night for the rest of the week o/
Style: Brackets, but if you want action, I WILL FOLLOW

[ So Sunday had been a particularly bad day for Duke, although it did end up with him eating a bit more than usual because wow, it should not have been that easy for him to get knocked down-

But monday morning felt fine. Mostly because he got hit with the curse, and once again was able to sprout wings and... ignore any normal needs. Although he did find it a little harder to talk this time... Perhaps he was a different sort of angel? Still had a crystal... Oh well.

This mostly left him with a great deal more hours than he had for the past weeks, and so the ordo-Zel house is swiftly filled with the smells of apples and baking... Because if he remembers the days right, then this is close to that gift-giving holiday and...

He can't really think of much.

The problem with a full twenty four hours to spend doing something is that he ends up with way more apple pies than he has people he knows. Everyone Duke knows the name of gets 1(one) Apple Pie with 1(one) slightly magicked pie tin. The tin will keep the pies at a nice warm temperature, and will do this again if they are cooked in the pie tin. Something to do with "absorbing and storing heat from the oven and giving it slowly back over time", the note explains. Don't make cold pies in this tin, obviously.

This does leave a great deal of pies left over, and after some thought, Duke takes them to the plaza and the coral. This was newcomer time, wasn't it?

Now there's a table with pies, notes attached explaining "keep-warm pie tins", and a small paper sign proclaiming them as free apple pies. Yup. ]

(OOC: FEEL FREE TO FIND HIM DELIVERING PIES TO CHARACTERS WHO HE KNOWS. Just mention "christmas" or something in your tag and I will know it is his gift-giving o/ ANYONE CAN GET PIES FROM THE PLAZA...

Duke is also a Symphonian Angel for this -)

And if it doesn't work...?

[Yup she's just cursed when it comes to cooking/baking]

[radiantwingedone]

...

[ Uhmn. ]

Find someone else to cook with, or cook for.

[needsmoregreen]

[Yup, she's cursed]

...It's starting to look that way...

I'm thinking that maybe cooking or baking isn't my thing...

[radiantwingedone]

[ If you're looking for someone to reassure you, Bianca, you should hug someone else. They'd do a better job. ]

[needsmoregreen]

[:T]

What about you? You think you can teach me how to do a better job on it?

[WHAT NOW DUKE?]

[radiantwingedone]

[ UH. ]

Perhaps. Am not the most skilled at things involving an oven.

[ but if you want to cook on an open fire, yes, he can help you there. ]

[needsmoregreen]

It's better than nothing right? If it's something then I'm sure it'll work somehow!

Besides, I think you're much better at me when it comes to the oven so I think you can teach me ...right?

[Or was she being a little too forward? Hm...]

[radiantwingedone]

[ Maybe she is, but Duke lacks social skills to be able to tell.

Or the feelings to care at the moment. ]

Can try, at least.

[needsmoregreen]

[Oh Duke]

Really? You'll try to help me out?

[her eyes widen with anticipation because...REALY?!]

[radiantwingedone]

... Did... not just say that?

[ He's pretty sure he did. ]

[needsmoregreen]

[Wait what?]

Uh...did you? Because it sounded like you did?

I could be wrong though!

[radiantwingedone]

.... [ Let him think. ]

.. Use of can made unclear if would or not?

[needsmoregreen]

Uh...it could!

But does it mean that you would?

[/derpppp]

[radiantwingedone]

If you have time.

[ And it might depend on how he's feeling, a little. ]

[needsmoregreen]

Uh...you mean right now?

Because I have time now but...what about you? I don't want to take anymore of your time than I already have though!

[radiantwingedone]

Have time. [ He's been making pies because he doesn't know what else to do. ]

[needsmoregreen]

Then we can start now! [And she FINALLY lets him go]

Just tell me where you want to go and I'll follow okay?

[giggle] I can't to get started with you!

[radiantwingedone]

[ THANK YOU. ]

Zelda's house, combined Ordo.

[ And he'll turn and lead the way.

If they need more things he can always fly to the store or something. ]

[needsmoregreen]

Uh...okay?

[Don't mind a Bianca following Duke along the way!]

Hm...now that I think about it, I don't think I ever been to Zelda's house before...I wonder what's it like...

Either way, I'm excited! I want to see what her house looks like too!

[radiantwingedone]

[ Duke sort of shrugs at the chatter, just leading the way.

It looks like a normal Ordo-neighborhood house. Just with all sorts of boxes of herbs in windows and some gailardia's out front.. And its two of them enclosed in a slight line of magic - Zelda's wards. ]

[needsmoregreen]

[As Bianca stares at the house around here, she couldn't help but let out a giggle]

You know, this reminds me a lot of my home. There's a lot of furniture, some pictures around, some plants, ...a-and some stuff ...too...

[It was clear that the girl was homesick but she shook her head and let out a smile]

Anyway, let's get going! Where is the kitchen again?

[radiantwingedone]

Inside-plants, recent addition.

[ He's actually to fault for those. It was a suggestion and something to do, at least.

And really, books might be the most common thing in this house. ]

This way. [ Duke sheds his gloves along the way, then pulls out a cook book and sets to cleaning mixing bowls. He had been cooking a lot of pies... ]

[needsmoregreen]

It looks like it is! The plants look kind of new...

[When she entered into the kitchen, she raised an eyebrow at Duke.]

So...what are we going to make today? Cookies? Pies? Hm...do we even have enough ingredients for it?

Ah...if we don't, doesn't that mean we need to quickly go out and get some? We have to go back out again!

[radiantwingedone]

... [ Here. Have this cook-book, which Duke has helpfully opened to the deserts section already. ]

Pick something, then worry about ingredients.

[needsmoregreen]

Uh... [Oh wow, there's so many on here.]

Hm...I don't think I can just choose one! Let's see...

[As she flipped through the book, she eventually let out a sigh before dropping the book on the ground.]

There, we'll let the book decide for me!

[Eventually it does open to one page and it's.....!]

Chocolate cake huh? That shouldn't be too difficult to make! [Maybe]
