won't you take me
Who: The Li Tieguai clusterfuck
What: Well, we're out of a shitty haunted forest, who wants dinner?
When: November 16, evening
Where: Li Tieguai's Temple
Usually, when there's some big nonsense in Heaven, Chikusa can be found out cold or "away" in his own head for most of the following couple of days afterwards... but that apparently only counts for event which involve people. Spending an entire day trekking through a possessed forest filled with violent plant-life and cultists is manageable.... somehow.
No matter how exhausted or injured anyone in the temple is, food still has to be made, and Hakka is in no condition to make it. Thus, dinner is being arranged by the other cook in the house, and invitations have been sent out to the relevant people Chikusa thinks care- namely Nanako and Ayumu, along with anyone they seek to bring. That doesn't mean people checking in on the Li Tieguai temple can't just waltz right into the dinner as well....
There's a lot to do in the time leading up to dinner, after all, depending on when people show up (or, you know, realize there's smells coming from the kitchen). Bon, the resident enormous Tibetan Mastiff, demands attention in the form of bodily flinging himself at people. There's a goat in the garden, tied away from all the important medical herbs. At least four different nekomata wander in and out of the temple ground whenever they please, including Pookie, the most permanent resident, and never shut up.... Not to mention that a Kung-Fu movie has been put on the television for people to watch.
There's also a sign on all entrances to the kitchen that says: CHO HAKKAI IS NOT ALLOWED TO COOK. Presumably Chikusa put it up while making direct eye contact with him.
Either way, mess around until dinner, have dinner, crash in the living room where another kung-fu movie has been put on again... Have fun.
Oh, and before it can be forgotten.... The dinner menu for the night is fritto misto, meaty Amatriciana sauce with bucatini noodles, and all the garlic bread in the world apparently. For dessert? Cannoli again. That... might be all he knows how to make on the dessert front.

After dinner
He's showin' off. [ Gojyo picks a seat in a comfy chair next to the couch and drops heavily into it, leaning forward to watch the movie, elbows on his knees. ] See? Nobody does flips like that in a real fight. You'd get your feet kicked out from under you. But in movies they can do stuff like this just because it looks cool.
[ Hi, kid. ]
You're Nanako, right?
no subject
Ohhhhh. So he's just like, showing off to make it look cooler? [ Sort of like the superhero shows where they wear bright costumes and do silly poses, then. She hadn't realized kung-fu was supposed to be like Phoenix Featherman R and Power Rangers. Now she gets it!
She turns to beam at him after he explains. ]
Yeah! You're... Gojyo, right?
[ She might have heard Chikusa complaining a time or two... ]
no subject
Last time I checked!
[ Ha ha. Ha. ]
I don't really watch many fighting shows, though. Us gods and shinki, we fight enough as it is, I think. I like funny shows better, like those game shows where they have to dress up in those shiny onesies and do crazy stunts. What about you?
no subject
For now, she just beams at him when he talks about what shows he likes. ]
Me, too! I love game shows and the ones with trivia and questions. I'm really good at them, sometimes. And I like shows with all the stunts, too, even if sometimes those have fighting, but they always go to save people, so I think that makes it okay. Have you ever seen Phoenix Featherman R? They're amazing!
[ ...She might be a bit of a fangirl. ]
