[February 6th comes and goes, and with it Jiro Yamada's birthday. Now both of Ichiro's brothers' birthdays have passed without him being there.

Despite them being frozen in time, Ichiro still feels like he's losing time with them. And it's coming out in his inability to cook for one person.]

i haven't posted to the network in a minute so - yo, this is yamada ichiro.

i made way too much curry recently. like three teenage boys worth of curry, and i can't eat all of it myself. if you want any come by room # at the inn.

open to anyone. thx.

[ooc; no formal log for this but lemme know if you wanna thread anything or handwave some interaction]

( did you say the word curry? Izumi appears as if summoned.

but there's one important question she's got to ask first; )

What's your recipe?

( don't be a roux don't be a roux... )

[ichibukuro]

that's a yamada family secret! but all made from scratch i assure you

[currysseur]

( you can't see this, Ichiro, but Izumi is grinning from ear to ear reading that. thank you for not letting her down!!! )

Count me in!
What do you think of the ingredients here, Ichiro-kun? They're pretty fascinating, aren't they?

( she may or may not spend a lot of her free time investigating new and exotic spices for their curry-making properties... )

[oh, an inn room number?! so Ichiro really WAS lying when he said he lived around her neighborhood in an attempt to avoid accepting her assistance that one time. Pah! Foolish boy!!! Let yourself be fussed over!!!!!!]

Friend Ichiro,

Thank you for your kind invitation! I would be very happy to pay you a visit. I have only tried curry a few times; I look forward to sampling your gracious offer.

Sincerely yours,
Rinea of Rigel

[ichibukuro]

This recipe is a hit at home so I'm sure you'll love it! I'll set aside a bowl for you.

[Her reply is so formal he felt the need to type properly...]

[silvergarden]

[What a nice boy.]

How lovely! I shall gratefully impose upon you, then. Thank you very much.

[Some time later that day, Ichiro will receive a very polite knock on the door. Rinea lights up when he answers, smiling brightly.]

Good day, mister Ichiro! [She holds up a wicker basket for him to accept-- a thank-you gift she specifically didn't mention based on his stubborn responses to everyone else. (it's a wooden cutting board she alchemized into shape, among some other housewarming sundries.)] It is good to see you looking much healthier than last we met!

Aren't you not supposed to post where you live on the internet?

[ food does sound good tho ]

[ichibukuro]

probably, but my home address has always been public knowledge because of my work. and i can handle myself.

[unhappy]

You sure you're not being cocky?

Did you say....FREE....CURRY?!?!

[Okay, he didn't actually say that, but clearly it's implied because he's giving it away!]

I'll be there in a crimson whirlwind! Reserve me a bowl...or two!

[ooc: if you don't mind an action thread? Crow can finally meet Rei's son!]

[ichibukuro]

[Ufu he's glad there's at least a couple curry enthusiasts here! Good taste!]

you got it! i can set aside some for you to take with you, too.

[ooc; sjkfjks YES altho he will vehemently deny even Knowing Rei LMAO]

Text --> Action

[milkmycattle]

[ooc: LOL That's fair!]

Take out, too?! Wow, you're the best!

I'm coming! I'm coming!

[Oh he's coming! Bursting out of his cottage and running towards the inn like a bat out of hell! It takes him ten minutes to reach Ichirou's door and there's an enthusiastic knock to alert the other he's there to EAT! When Ichiro opens the door, he'll find a hedgehog boy hunched over and panting from lack of air.]

Is...there...any...left?

[This guy is serious about his curry.]

[glossophobia]

Is it very spicy?

[ As willing as he would be to drop by he... doesn't like spicy food. ]

[ichibukuro]

not at all. it's what you'd expect from japanese curry

[glossophobia]

I can come by to have some then. Would you like me to bring anything in return?

Yo! What’s up Ichichi! It’s nice to be a kid with the ability to cook!

[Calling Ichiro a kid like he’s ancient in comparison... okay hifumi]

What other kinda stuff do you make?

[ichibukuro]

hmm karaage? i like making savory dishes but it'd be good to learn some sweet dishes...

do you cook a lot, hifumi-san?

[fellsound]

( well, since it's a simple question, it deserves a simple answer, right? )

... okay.

( he may or may not already be beginning to make his way from Camelot to the inn after sending this. thank goodness it's a journey, you'll have plenty of time to try and talk to this strange voice, )

audio;

[ichibukuro]

[Eh? Uhh. This is one of the odder responses he's gotten.]

O-okay? Are you coming? I'll set aside another bowl?

text; un: didnot. / fuck it gives u everyone

[tsumtsuki]

That's very kind of you, Ichiro-kun. I'd love to try your cooking. [ :) ! ]

[ichibukuro]

[Hfgh... Tsumugi-san as pure as ever.]

i dunno about that. i'm just used to cooking for more people so i keep making too much by accident. but please come by! i'll set some aside for you

text; un: NuruSara / not as late as i'm tagging but too late for curry...

[whosaysdajare]

Ichiro-kun~❗️❗️🤗
Your cooking's gotta be second to ✨NAAN✨ so I'll have a plate 🍛🌟💫

[ In exchange he's got a few more puns to dish out. ]

[ichibukuro]

aaah too bad Sasara-san. i'm all out. better luck next time

[Yes, Rosho will be bringing him back some but let Ichiro tease him a bit.]
