Pancakes and Sweets [closed]
Who: Izumo and Nanako
What: Taste-testing and cooking fun times
When: June 20th
Where: Double Cross
Warnings: …Fluff?
[It was a bit of a whirlwind as to how Izumo found himself in the kitchen with Nanako, the latter having come by in the early morning.
Izumo usually doesn’t mind the company, so who was he to deny the little miss from joining him?
Hence how the two found themselves experimenting with all sorts of things that morning as Izumo experiments with a few desserts and places it in front of her to try out, a glass of water on the table in case Nanako needs it.
He flips another pancake onto the plate before drizzling molasses over it and sliding it in front of her.]
Alright, how about this one?

[ Nanako's eyes are wide with delight as he slides the plate in front of her. She'd taken a break in exploring today to visit his new pub and the next thing she knew they were cooking and experimenting on new dishes. She certainly wasn't complaining, because she got to learn new cooking things as well as watch him. And then got to taste test after.
She cuts a bite off and tries it, cheeks flushing happily as she tastes the treat. ]
This is really yummy! You're really good at this! I've never had one of these before.
no subject
Cooking all of these and having someone taste test this was a best feeling.]
I'm glad you're enjoying it.
[He takes an extra piece he had and cuts out a small piece for himself to taste.
Satisfied with it, Izumo turns to Nanako.]
Was there anything else you wanted to try?
no subject
I like lots of things, so anything is good. What do you like to make?
no subject
[A blink as he looks at everything he's made so far.
Mostly pancakes, decorated with all sorts of things ranging from fruits to molasses.]
That's hard to answer. I'm mostly fond of just making anything.
[Idea.]
Do you want to make something with me?
no subject
Can I??
no subject
[He waves her over.]
After all, it must be boring just watching me cook all of this.
no subject
Nuh-uh. I like watching you cook! But I like helping too. If I won't be in the way?
no subject
You won't be. [He looks at the ingredients spread out.] Since you'll be helping me, you get the chance to decide what you want us to make.
no subject
Really? Ummm. [ She leans up on the countertop to peer over the edge of the counter to see what he has for ingredients. ]
Can we make dorayaki?
no subject
He nods.] We can.
no subject
Yay! My friend's mom made them for me once, back home. It was really yummy.
[ Alas, this is one recipe she hadn't learned yet. ]
no subject
[He grabs the ingredients they need, separating them from one another.]
First things first: we need to mix the flour and baking soda together.
no subject
[ She's still peering over the edge of the counter, just tall enough to see, although not reach easily. ]
no subject
[He takes the measuring cups, placing it in front of her.
If she needs the help, Izumo will bring a stool over for her to use.]
First, we'll need to measure 1 1/4 cup flour and 1 teaspoon of baking soda.
no subject
Like that?
no subject
When she's done, he gives a nod and places a hand on her head.]
Just like that.
no subject
[ She looks pleased at the accomplishment, and the praise he gives in response, cheeks flushing slightly. Glancing back at the ingredient, she hums thoughtfully. ]
What's next? We need eggs, right?
[ She's helped make pancakes enough times before to at least have a general idea of how this should probably go. ]
no subject
Do you want to crack them open?
[Because he'll let her if she does. He's mostly here to supervise her than actually doing anything since she wants to help out.]
no subject
Yeah, I can do that part, too. I practiced back home a lot, I like making eggs!
no subject
Alright, then I'm going to leave you in charge of the eggs.
[He hands her the eggs, as much as needed for dorayaki.]
no subject
But when she finishes, she glances back up at him once more. ] What's next?
no subject
[He gets out those two ingredients and measures them.
Then he combines it with the eggs before handing Nanako a whisk.]
Would you like to whisk them?
no subject
Have you ever made these before?
no subject
Has he?
This memory loss thing is real annoying.]
Ah, I can't remember.
no subject
Oops. Sorry. I forgot. I didn't meant that.
