Week 4

Week 4
Sunday - Thursday


You've lost four in the past week—Machias, Vanitas, Natalia and Edna. Just in time for the fourth week to roll around, for those of you who are superstitious. But it really isn't like you could forget that death is a common occurrence in this castle, whether you believe in legends or not. Some of you might find solace in the chance to recuperate and move on, if you're still up for companionship with your fellow warriors.

Either way, dawn is soon upon the castle and like it or not, you will all have to face whatever comes this week.

Like before the pattern repeats itself, with new areas revealed for you to explore. It may be that something worth discovering lies in wait to be found, or you can simple enjoy the new additions for what they are. Distractions are most likely welcome, regardless of your feelings of the past week.



SURVIVING WARRIORS: 21



SUNDAY | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY

(OOC: Welcome to Week 4 of Ukimiya! Feel free to comment to the weekly top levels and thread as you like, and redeem coins at the wishing pool.

You can contact the sage with your pendants here, and the teishu here.)

Omu... rice?

[It takes him a second to connect the dots in his head, because he lives in JRPG Germany, but they do have SOME Eastern dishes in the cookbook they've all been bumming off of Rean. So, for the sake of this thread...]

Oh! Yeah, I think I can pull that off. [He smiles at Nishitani! If he remains friendly, Nishitani'll keep being mostly nonthreatening, right...] Might take me a little bit and it might not be perfect, but I'll do my best if that's good with you!

Omelette rice, ya know?

[ What do you mean not everyone is from Japan? Nishitani grins though. He's all about having food from home here. ]

Hell yeah, I'd like ta see that! We got ketchup and shit here, right?
divertimento: (6)

[personal profile] divertimento 2017-08-21 09:00 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I figured it out! [He laughs a little.] It's not super-super-common where I'm from, but it's not completely new to me, either. I think I can pull it off.

Even if we didn't, Ayumu's still in there, and I'm not sure there's a sauce he can't make.

[He grins right back.]

[personal profile] buddyoldpal 2017-08-21 10:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Sweet. I can't cook fer shit, so it sure as fuck beats just eatin' plain rice every day.

[ Which is what he's been doing...... ]

Damn, he's good, ain't he? He made the sauce fer the okonomiyaki too. Kid's somethin' else!
divertimento: (13)

[personal profile] divertimento 2017-08-21 10:48 pm (UTC)(link)
...Really?

[Elliot just kind of seems sad about this? Nishitani, you're terrifying, but you can do better!]

There are a lot of people around here that can cook. I'm sure if you asked nicely, they'd be happy to double up on whatever they're making.

[Also, like. Why doesn't he ask Majima? Majima helps at breakfast...]
buddyoldpal: (11)

[personal profile] buddyoldpal 2017-08-21 10:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, ain't gotta cook when ya got money, kid!

[ He laughs. I mean... he was probably the kid stealing other kids' lunches at school. So that's no surprise. ]

I mean, yeah, Majima cooks fer me here, but it ain't like we're always on the same schedule. [ Since they sleep... so rarely. ] Plus ya seen how sharin' food's been goin' for folks, right?
divertimento: (3)

[personal profile] divertimento 2017-08-21 11:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Haha... I guess that's true.

[Except he... doesn't have money... so he has to cook.]

...ngh. [Nishitani has a point, loathe as he is to admit it.] ...Still, maybe you could offer to help out? Learn how to cook a little? Then you could double-check that the food was okay, since you'd be there during the preparation, and pick up some new skills.

[personal profile] buddyoldpal 2017-08-22 03:29 am (UTC)(link)
[ Details... You don't need money when you have friends? Maybe? ]

I know how ta make fried rice, that's about as fancy as it fuckin' gets. [ He shrugs. he's a spoiled brat. ] Dunno if I'd trust me in the kitchen, ya know? Might not kill ya, but I ain't exactly got an eye fer flavors.
divertimento: (15)

[personal profile] divertimento 2017-08-22 12:28 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, that's why I'm saying you could help out. If someone else was giving you pointers, maybe you could pick up a thing or two. Gain an eye you never knew you had!

[A beat.]

...Whiiiich sounds pretty awkward, now that I've said it. But you know what I mean, right?

[personal profile] buddyoldpal 2017-08-23 05:05 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Nishitani chuckles. He can tell you're trying, Elliot. ]

I get what yer sayin', small fry. I'll see if Majima wants my help next time he makes us somethin', howssat?
divertimento: (5)

[personal profile] divertimento 2017-08-23 05:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Sounds like a plan to me. [He grins, then pushes himself up from his spot.]

Gimme a minute on your food, then, okay?
buddyoldpal: (11)

[personal profile] buddyoldpal 2017-08-23 05:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Sure thing, kid! After all these fuckin' long-ass trials, my patience's gotten real damn good!

[ Seriously though, food is worth it. ]
divertimento: (Default)

[personal profile] divertimento 2017-08-23 08:02 pm (UTC)(link)
[Well, then, he's off!

It takes a decent amount of time for him to futz around in the kitchen - maybe asking Ayumu for advice every now and again, because hey, the Japanese kid is probably going to know more about this sort of thing than the Erebonian kid - but eventually, he returns with a plate for Nishitani.

Omurice! It's edible!]


Ta-da~!

[...small fry is a dork, what do you want from him.]
buddyoldpal: (14)

[personal profile] buddyoldpal 2017-08-23 08:42 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Aww... that's cute, Elliot. Nishitani isn't overly mean to kids, he'll grin and try the food. Actually, it's a lot better than he expected, hope you don't mind him scarfing down almost half of it before he gets a word of praise out. He's easy to please, honestly. ]

Damn, not bad, kid! This yer first time makin' it?
divertimento: (36)

[personal profile] divertimento 2017-08-23 08:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Ehehe... yep. Glad you like it, though!

[He's so easy to please with praise.]
buddyoldpal: (11)

[personal profile] buddyoldpal 2017-08-23 09:25 pm (UTC)(link)
[ See, Nishitani knows how to give credit where credit is due. ]

I'm surprised y'all are so good at cookin'! Between ya and Narumi-kun, ya could make some serious bank cookin' all this fuckin' food.
divertimento: (6)

[personal profile] divertimento 2017-08-23 10:56 pm (UTC)(link)
[Nishitani knows many things! Most of them are probably just things Elliot doesn't want to think about.]

You think so? Heh, I don't know about me, but Ayumu, definitely. He's a real genius when it comes to this.

[Meanwhile, in Elliot's canon, it is actually possible to completely break the in-game economy using him to cook endless omelettes...]
buddyoldpal: (14)

[personal profile] buddyoldpal 2017-08-24 04:15 am (UTC)(link)
[ Yep, real. Nishitani continues eating his omelet, but he isn't gonna correct Elliot, either. ]

Yeah, he's somethin' else ain't he? Even made the fuckin' sauce from scratch.

[ Now that's a useful skill. ]
divertimento: (2)

[personal profile] divertimento 2017-08-24 09:02 pm (UTC)(link)
I'll go ahead and say I'm decent, but if I could cook like he does, I think I'd be set for life.

[Sigh! Goals.]
buddyoldpal: (Default)

[personal profile] buddyoldpal 2017-08-24 10:25 pm (UTC)(link)
No shit. If I had his skills maybe I wouldnta ended up in the yakuza!

[ Truly what a waste. Master chef Nishitani would be amazing. ]
divertimento: (43)

[personal profile] divertimento 2017-08-24 11:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Ehe... that's kind of a fun thought, isn't it? You decked out in a chef's uniform. [He can't help but grin.] Ah, well. We all have our callings, right?

[of course, it's kind of a shame Nishitani's is murder, but...]
buddyoldpal: (12)

[personal profile] buddyoldpal 2017-08-25 04:04 am (UTC)(link)
Hah! That'd be a riot!

[ He definitely doesn't have the eye for creating, he's more of a destroying... guy. Yeah, murder is definitely his thing. ]

But fuck yeah, 'xactly! Once ya find it, there ain't nothin' better!

True enough!
