002 » VIDEO; un: Persephone

[ragingnature]

[ 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. ]

Right. Just lemme know what ya decide and I can bring the ingredients.

...I'm Tsukuyo by the way. [ I mean the username makes it pretty obvious but she figures it's probably more polite to actually introduce herself. ]

[ragingnature]

I can think of a few things off the top of my head that should be fairly easy for beginners. Though some of it does require working with chocolate which can be a little frustrating at times, even for me.

[ Curse tempered chocolate. ]

Persephone. [ She smiles. ]

[tsukky]

Nice to meet ya. [ She smiles faintly in return. She's not a big smiler but it's genuine enough. ]

...Would ya happen to know any recipes with chocolate and strawberries in them?

[ragingnature]

Off the top of my head, chocolate covered strawberries are a super simple classic. A chocolate and strawberry cheesecake also comes to mind.

[tsukky]

Both o' those would work I think. Thanks.

...I'm not so comfortable with all of this yet, but if ya want some handholdin' in exchange for the lessons then I s'pose can do that. [ She's still very new still and it feels weird even just to say this at the moment. ]

[ragingnature]

Cheesecake does require more work and can be tricky to get right. It's really easy to burn it or get the consistency all wrong. So maybe we'll start with the strawberries since they're easy and if you're looking for something, er, romantic I suppose you couldn't go wrong with them.

It would be appreciated if you're okay with it.

[tsukky]

[ Oh Persephone, you immediately get THIS FACE at the word "romantic". BRAIN OVERLOAD. ]

N-No, that's not it at all! I've just never really bothered to learn how to cook much, I just thought seeing as I have more time now I might as well, y'know?

This is just for me!

[ragingnature]

[ She knows some people think of chocolate-covered strawberries are romantic so she just kind of assumed. Now she feels a little bad for doing so. ]

Oh, um, sorry! I didn't mean to assume anything.

But in that case, I did see this recipe for cheesecake filled chocolate-covered strawberries that looked interesting. We could give that a try.

[tsukky]

[ A-aw, no, she's so nice! Now Tsukuyo feels bad for going all tsundere mode at her. ]

No, that's okay. I get it.

We could definitely try that one.

[ragingnature]

Okay! When would be good for you? I prefer to not do this during Sanguis.

[tsukky]

[ Oh. So it's not difficult for Tsukuyo to work out which of the 3 Persephone is then. ]

I... don't know which of the three I am yet. I'm new.

I've been told bits and pieces but... Is there a time when none of them are happenin'? [ She doesn't feel like it's the best idea to hedge her bets and attempt a cooking lesson when she might be about to go through some things... ]

[ragingnature]

Oh.

[ She offers a smile and nods. ] The last couple of weeks of the month is when you don't have to worry about the moons causing an issue.

[tsukky]

I'll have to keep that in mind.

Until I know better, let's aim for around then in that case.

[ragingnature]

Okay. Let me know what day is good for you.

[tsukky]

I will. Thanks again.

[ She's Cordis - so safe to say she'll be in touch again once all of that chaos is over with. ]
