[ The video opens up to a mostly blurry pink screen. After a moment things come into focus to show the face of a young woman with pink skin and hair. ]

Um, I think I've done this right. [ She frowns, brow furrowing a bit before noticing it's she's recording properly. She smiles as she settles back from the camera. ]

So I was thinking of offering cooking and or baking lessons to those that would like them. I'm vegetarian so I can only teach you how to prepare those kinds of meals.

I'm not really looking for anything in return, though if you don't mind a little hand-holding or cuddling I would appreciate it. I also ask if there's anything, in particular, you want to make that you provide the ingredients yourself.

[ She purses her lips, thinking for a moment before nodding to herself. ]

That was all. Please let me know if you're interested.

[ It takes her a moment to end the feed. ]

[ It's a smiling Harry who replies to this, sitting on a roof, leaning back in a chair and sipping something vaguely like a Coke as he peers into the communicator. ]

I'd be interested, Persephone. I know a few things cooking-wise, but not a lot, so learning more would be fun.

And I can go buy some ingredients if that helps at all.

[ Despite him trying to help people in the wake of the disastrous attack for free, some have insisted on paying, so he has a small amount of DemiChroma to use. ]

[ragingnature]

I'd be more than happy to teach you, Mister Dresden. Bringing your own ingredients would be appreciated.

[iminthebook]

Please, call me Harry.

And awesome, I can do that.

[ Harry grins at her. She is so cheerful and he can't help but smile. ]

If you can send me the recipes you will be teaching, I can pick ingredients from it on the way there.

[ Tsukuyo's expression is so, so serious considering what is being offered here.

So serious in fact that she looks as though she's reconsidering even responding to this. Eventually, she speaks. ]

...So ya could teach me how to make sweet things?

[ragingnature]

Of course! Were you thinking of baked goods or something like chocolates?

[ She thinks for a moment. ] Or perhaps a mixture of the two?

[tsukky]

[ Oh god she wasn't expecting to have to make a choice here... I mean it's not like she wants to make this for a particular person or or she's taking a moment because she's debating what they would like best or anything like that... Nope. ]

I'm not sure, I'm really not much of a cook to be honest... Maybe a mixture?

Ah, you know. You'll probably need someone to eat all of the cake that you and your students end up making.
Or, you know, at least taste test to make sure people are making them right.

_{[ COUGHS LOUDLY. ]}

[ragingnature]

I was thinking that anything I make with something they would be taking with them to share or eat all on their own. But I do a lot of stress baking during Sanguis so if you'd like to stop by some time and pick up something you're welcome to.

[ Baking has become her outlet for all the wonderful things Sanguis makes her feel. ]

[naturallywavy]

_{[ Oh hell yes. Look at that grin. ]}

I'll eat as much as you want..! For free, even!

_{[ Okay, that last part comes naturally cause he's a freelancer. Gintoki looks for opportunities all over the place to turn them into business deals. ]}

[pink girl goddess!]

Uh. I'm not a vegetarian but... I don't know anything about cooking. I've been eating out since I got here, aside from the instant ramen. It'd be nice to have a home-cooked meal.

[ragingnature]

Okay. We can start with the basics and I can think of some easy recipes for beginners.

[ At this point she's pulled out something to take notes on because she didn't expect so many people being interested. ]

[immature]

That sounds great! I honestly don’t care what we make! I like all kinds of food!

I basically know how to grill and follow directions, but it would be helpful to really sit down and learn a bit more.

I can offer some chroma or demi-chroma in payment. I only offer chroma through sparring, though.

[ragingnature]

Hrm, grilling huh? What kind of things have you grilled?

[ A pause as she makes a note. ]

And, um, I'm not a fighter so I'll have to say no to the sparring.

[torsion]

Ignoring meats, I like to grill asparagus. Watermelon, corn, and pineapple are great, too. :)

Well, then, I'll just transfer you some with a handshake. I've never tried trading actually chroma that way, so we'll see how it goes?

[With him not being very keen on meat himself, the vieo piques his interest. However, he doesn't know what to focus on more: the pink skin or the vegetarian meals. Probably better focus on the later for now.]

Vegetarian you say? I dunno how to cook very well but I guess it would be nice to learn to save Chroma. [He can't keep eating out almost all the time like he's doing since he arrived.]

Anything specific that you know how to make?

[ragingnature]

[ She nods. ]

Growing up my mother made sure I knew how to cook a variety of foods with what we had available, which was vegetables aplenty. If I were to list everything I know how to cook we'd be here a while.

what's vegetarian mean/

[ Someone who only eats vegetables? That's a thing? What about the balanced diet Aqua's always talking about?

But if this person can teach him how to cook... ]

[ragingnature]

Vegetarian means I don't eat meat but I do eat foods made from animal byproducts such as cheese and honey.

Persephone, hello! If the offer still stands I'd love to take you up on it. My circle of vegetarian friends seems to be growing these days.

[ragingnature]

[ She perks up at getting a response from a familiar face. ]

Hello, Fjord! How are the plants doing?

And, of course, the offer still stands. [ She's certainly going to have less free time if everyone she's spoken with actually shows up, which was the point of this. ]

[shadowonthe]

[ Here's one, very excited looking tiefling. ]

I would absolutely take you up on that.

Though the hand holding or cuddling is completely on the house, if you don't mind pillows that is.

[ragingnature]

Okay! How much experience do you have with cooking?

[ A curious look passes over her features. ]

Pillows?

Do you know how to make anything spicy?

[Because he doesn't eat spicy things but Mo Ran does and he's...he's trying to contribute more to that relationship and this seems like a good place to start...?]

[ragingnature]

I'm not super familiar with a lot of spicy recipes but I'd be willing to find some and give them a try.
