Hogwarts First Annual Chili Fest! ((Open RP for whole school. Free food! Mingling opportunities!))

The making of chili had been highly successful. With River and A working together, they'd made nearly enough to feed the whole school. Thankfully, the kitchen had some pretty huge pots.

And now they were in the great hall, River on one side of the pot and A on the other, each armed with an apron, a ladel, and a spoon. Next to the pot were containers holding sour cream and various types of cheese and cut up chives, for garnish. A sign at the door read 'Free chili! Come and enjoy!'

"How nice, offering chili to everyone." Ace walked up to them both. "May I have some chili then, please?"

"I am. Just recently arrived, not long ago." He shifted the bowl to one hand, holding out his other one. "Arnold Rimmer. Friends call me Ace. Feel free to call me it."

Kaga knew by fooddar had seen the signs offering chili. Always eager to taste food, he made his way inside.

"Ah, A. I didn't know you had a hand in this."

"River and I made it," he said modestly. "It has venison and beef, and pork and chicken, and lamb, and even a little pheasant. Mostly beef."

"A protein medley, how wonderful. I look forward to tasting it." He began to remove his gloves. "Sorry, may I ask who River is?"

"River." He pointed. "We, we like to cook together. All the cutting things up was easier with two people, and we talked while we did it."

"No!"

Yes, Soichiro was still throwing cards into a hat. Only this time his aim was off.

Way off.

So off it might end up hitting someone's ankle.

Soichiro laughed weakly and summoned the hat and cards back. "It might. And you did offer, it would be rude of me to refuse." He nodded to A. "Hello, A."

A gave Soichiro a tentative nod. "It is good chili," he said softly. "We made it."

Yukimura was fond of A and of the Shadow-girl so when he saw them, he entered. "This looks delightful," he said, smiling at both of them.

"It is meat with spices," A told him. "There are beans in it also, and some vegetables, but it is mostly meat. There is cheese and sour cream for putting on top of it, but that is optional, and I remember that you, you don't like cheese, so you will probably want it on its own."

Thankfully, it wasn't super-hot.

"Not really, Shadow-girl. And, it was less than helpful that the Hat filled my room with the stuff, either." He smiled at the two and then winked at the Shadow-girl. "Is this who you danced for?" he asked, teasing her a little.

The boy whom I had thought unUrthly had attired himself in a cook's apron and was ladling up food for anyone who might seek sustenance. Beside him was a slender girl whose bearing was not that of a scullion, she too bedecked with the accoutrements of servitude. I stopped at this unexpected sight.

"Is this a work of charity?" I asked them; for I could think of no other reason for their current activity.

"I, I like to cook," he said softly. "And it is even better when River cooks with me. And sometimes it, it, it's nice to make a lot and share it, because there are so many people here who have been nice to me. So today we made chili, and it is easy to make chili in large batches, and fun to share."

Miles was always excited about the prospect of free food. And the smells wafting out of the Great Hall had made him curious.

The short, frenetic astronomy professor found a place in line and picked up a bowl. "How spicy is this going to be?" he asked the pretty young woman serving the chili, offering up a friendly smile.

Miles grinned. "I'm sure the chili will be fine without any enhancements," he said. At her actual question, he raised an eyebrow in surprise. "I'm actually not sure. I'm still getting things ready. Are you Simon's sister, then?"

Twoey showed up at the pots before Brice did. The little dog had smelled the chili and decided that she would like to eat that, pretty please. She sat down on her haunches and staaared up at the nice people by the pot, her tail wagging hopefully and her tongue licking her mouth. Please? She was adorable (http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y115/Ekwy/fuzzypuppy.jpg) and fluffy and small!

Far away a voice was calling her name, always coming closer, but at the moment the dog didn't care about that. She was mostly focusing on the food.

A was kindly disposed towards animals in general, and dogs were certainly covered under that umbrella. He looked down at the small creature.

"Is there someone who cares for you who might allow you a small amount of chili? It is strongly seasoned, but a few bites would not make you ill."

[identity profile] angelicbadboy.livejournal.com 2009-02-09 01:58 am (UTC)(link)
Nooo, there was no one in the whole woooorld that cared for her... She was aaaall alone and chili-less. Please bring her home and feed her chili every day, kind man with food!

"There you are!" Much to her dismay, Brice came up behind Twoey and kneeled beside her to tug lightly at her ears as punishment for running off. "Don't scare me like that."

He looked up. Oh, hello. Smelled nice. The guy was vaguely familiar (http://community.livejournal.com/hogwarts_hocus/1620821.html?thread=85356629#t85356629) too. The name was pretty easy to remember, though, he was one of those people who just had one letter... Weren't there a whole bunch of them?

"That looks good," he commented. "Could I have some?" Twoey arfed eagerly, and Brice rolled his eyes. "And a small bowl for the dog, please. Really small. Think thimble."
