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.

You should help Chikusa and me cook, once he allows me back into the kitchen.
no subject
[This is because Chikusa is both blunt and truthful, and Ken cannot resist food when he's hungry...which being in the presence of a meal-in-progress inevitably makes him.]
no subject
[Shinki don't get full.
Therefore it's fine.]
no subject
...then he'll probably keep me out of the kitchen 'cause I'd eat all the food, byon. [Ken's immediate huff, and the way he thinks up Chikusa's next objection with barely a pause, shows just how well he knows his partner.]
no subject
[Ken knows himself, too, it seems. Hakkai softens into a chuckle, and pins the last of the towels up on the line before wiping a hand over his brow and glancing up at the attenuated winter sun.]
Well, Ken, can you carry the basket back inside with me?

no subject
[See? He's taking care! Really, he is. He chuckles at Ken's huff, and starts towards the temple.]
