[closed] it's not a nutritional dinner

Who: Chikusa, Ken, and all the people invited to Hakkai's temple
When: October 12
Where: Li Tieugai's temple in the Central District
What: Having recently lost their other god, Ken is sad by yet another loss.... so Chikusa is fixing this with his dog's favorite things: people he likes and copious amounts of meat.

Unless people actually ask, Chikusa.... doesn't exactly tell what time the dinner is actually going to be at. At least he'll probably tell them that Hakkai's temple moved? One would hope.

The temple of Iron Crutch Li doesn't really seem all that impressive upon approaching it, despite being in the Central District. The walled gardens are certainly large and lovely enough, if a little wild, but the building itself is rather plain at its two stories. There's a small sign attached to the front door that simply says 'come in'. Chikusa isn't going to bother answering the door for visitors. It's not like Hakkai locks that thing anyway.

The inside of the temple is about as sparsely decorated as its outside, but, today, the overwhelming smell wafting from the kitchen has overtaken any medicinal smells that might normally be about. It adds a certain warmth to the room.

Until dinner will be served a little later into the night, people are free to do whatever- hang about the gardens, go bother Chikusa in the kitchen, or otherwise find the other residents of the temple. Chikusa won't care to stop anyone, although Hakkai might.

As for dinner? Chikusa is serving so much meat: rabbit stew with olives and rosemary, swordfish, curried chicken, veal marsala, and a more traditional spaghetti served with meatballs. Fortunately, at least there's garlic bread and stuffed mushrooms, so there's something that isn't meat.... And for dessert? Zeppole, cannoli, and an apple ciambella with almond cream.

Aren't I? Oh dear -- I'm not sure if that's a compliment or not. May I ask your age, Marinette? Although I know one shouldn't ask a lady, ha ha.

["Wow, you seem really old"... well, at least he's young enough to still take that as a compliment. Mostly.

Maybe not from people not much younger than he is, though.]


Chikusa's really worked hard on this party, so I'm sure he'll be happy just to see that you're here.

[He's pressing a hand to his face. Marinette, sometimes...]

Uh, well if it makes you feel better you've got about a decade on us? At least I'm pretty, sure?

[The blond is glancing over to his companion. Est-ce exact? hovers on the tip of his tongue but he bites it back. The kid knows too many languages.] Right, My Lady?

Well, that's true! Having friends around is bound to cheer him up.

[Okay so maybe they weren't that close in age, but he looked fairly young. That counted, right?]

Yep! Sounds like it.

[Feeling his eyes on her, she's glancing over at Adrien with a smile.] Right.

I hope so. He deserves to be happy, and so does Ken.

That's really not very close.

[Although it is much closer to the age he would've guessed for them. He shakes his head.]

And I think it will! It's always hard to lose someone you've known, but remembering that he does still have friends here should help.
