Is it too late for the turkey? I hope not. I wouldn't know what to do with all these herbs.

[adoringpast]

you already have the herbs?
i haven't even shown you the recipe yet

[ keito... ]

[lecturehall]

I know. I looked up various recipes and collected the herbs that most commonly occurred.

I figured it'd be polite to at least contribute something.

[adoringpast]

i mean i already have most of the herbs here but
all right
fell free to bring them over if you can
i just finished stripping this turkey off of its feathers so at least you don't have to kill it

[lecturehall]

you

You killed it?

[no shit keito]

[adoringpast]

yeah???
the fuck, keito
what do you think we're supposed to be doing
give it a birthday party?

i need izumi's icon of covering his mouth in horror tbh

[lecturehall]

Don't patronize me! There are other ways to do it. Butchers or something!

I never knew you could be so heartless.

THAT WASN'T IN HORROR HE WAS TOUCHED BC ARASHI SAID THAT HE AND MAKOTO LOOKED GOOD

[adoringpast]

are you fucking serious right now
do you expect me to pay the butchers to do something that i already can do on my own
christ

just get your ass over here before i change my mind and cook this without you

horror

[lecturehall]

Is there blood?

[adoringpast]

i flushed it down the sink, don't worry about it

[lecturehall]

Fine. So long as I'm not arriving at a slaughterhouse. I'll be there in a few minutes.

[and lo and behold, here he is, buzzing himself into sena's apartment and walking in like he owns the place.

maybe because he's just used to sharing it.

he is, indeed, carrying a lot of herbs. he sets them down on the counter, glancing at the sink.]

Is that the blood gutter?

[adoringpast]

[ where the fuck did that confidence come from... it does feel weird to have your ex waltzing into the place where you did all sorts of things with, but he brushes that thought aside and follows him into the kitchen. ]

Yes, and I'd gut you as well if you don't stop being a wuss. Let me see what you brought.

[ takes a cursory glance at them... whoa, he wasn't kidding when he said that he collected all sorts of herbs imaginable. ]

Do you really expect me to use all of this in just one turkey dish? [ huffs ] You don't cut corners at all, don't you?

[lecturehall]

No.

[you dated him sena. are you really asking him that. he's kind of offended???]

Don't threaten me with death when we're trying to make reparations. [not even a request just... the primmest order imaginable. he starts taking the plethora of herbs out.] You don't need to use all of them. Consider the excess a housewarming gift.

[or something. whatever.]

[adoringpast]

[ squiiiiiints. he hates being told what to do, especially by someone like keito, but he sighs and gets the other ingredients ready anyway. butter, chicken stock that he'd prepared all by himself last night, carrots, celery and onions have all been laid out on the counter, along with the necessary tools needed to make this shit.

izumi opens his phone and shows keito the recipe that they're gonna do today. ]

It seems simple enough, don't you think?

[ no it does not. not for a first-timer for keito, that is. this is also izumi's first time making this dish but it's as if he already knows what he's doing... ]

[lecturehall]

[keito's a bit intimidated but... well. it is actually easier than he first assumed it'd be. at least there's no words he doesn't recognize.]

I don't think cooking a 17-pound turkey is ever "simple" but... I suppose it's easier than other methods.

[oh?? is that a bit of nervousness in his voice?? yes, it is. even a simple recipe is daunting when his most adventurous cooking skills are omelettes. nevertheless he rolls up his sleeves.]

What should I start on first?

[even if he's out of his depth he won't!! let this bird!! defeat him!! look at how determined he's getting.]

[adoringpast]

You know how to use a food processor? Throw in the butter, parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme in there and blend it all until it's smooth.

[ just gonna preheat the oven here; he's already heating up the chicken stock to make the whole process quicker for the both of them. and the sooner they cook this bastard, the better. ]
