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.

It's all embarrassing.]
Well, you have to remember, he hasn't known me very long. [He doesn't have a good benchmark for Hakkai's resilience. And, besides, it hasn't been all that long since Hakkai was garrotted while trying to complete an ill-timed assassination attempt, anyway.]
But I'm glad you stopped him.
no subject
[He doesn't normally try to fistfight random teenagers in the woods or try to start a wildfire on a whim and he normally maintains some chill in times of crisis, but still. It wasn't very weird.]
Anyway, it's all fine now. You're okay and he's okay and we only set some stuff on fire in the end!
no subject
[Because, really, fuck those trees. And vines. And underbrush; Hakkai still has some very annoying thorn punctures.]
But, yes, I'm certainly hoping that things will be a little quieter for a while now... and I'll be careful of forests.
no subject
[You only get one freebie. Okay, he's obviously just teasing. After getting kidnapped by trees a little teasing is practically obligatory. Even for Hakkai.]
Gojyo and I were in the forest for ages without getting captured, you know! We escaped when we weren't even trying to!
no subject
[He affects a despairing expression.]
no subject
[This is a serious problem that they need to brainstorm solutions to.]

I'll have to sew some very large pockets into my slacks if I'm going to start carrying an axe.
Perhaps a little spray bottle of herbicide would do the trick?
