[Open]

WHO: Everyone!
WHERE: Vkusno! Shaved Ice in the Shopping Centre
WHEN: 2/10 afternoon
WHAT: Valentine's Day Chocolate Workshop
WARNINGS: None so far



[After a handful of people expressed interest in learning how to make Valentine's Day chocolates, somehow what had started as tentative plans between a couple friends turned into a full on workshop.

The prep took a couple days, but in the end things were ready! The kitchens of Vkusno! Shaved Ice were secured for melting down the chocolates. The tables and chairs in the shop proper were all equipped with chocolate molds, decoration toppings, and other tools for anyone who stopped by to use. All that was left was to send out the invites via network:]

Chocolate making workshop at Vkusno! Shaved Ice is open now. We're on the 4th floor of the Shopping Centre if you want to join in.


(ooc: Please feel free to make your own top levels!)

I'm glad you asked, Victor! It's taken on a very wonderful new form...

[Nekomaru grinws and steps to the side to give Victor a look at the sports ball-shaped chocolates.]

BALLS!!
genice: (unimpressed | the hell)

[personal profile] genice 2017-02-15 03:12 am (UTC)(link)
( gore i'm so sorry Victor just looks at Nekomaru, then the sport ball shaped chocolates, then back to Nekomaru. )

Sports balls. I presume?

( He's having flashbacks to "Icy Balls Shaved Ice" right now, we're sorry, Nekomaru. )
nodyinteam: (thataway)

[personal profile] nodyinteam 2017-02-15 03:33 am (UTC)(link)
[It's okay... Nekomaru just misses the apparent flashback-inducing nature of his statement, and he soon redoes his gesture towards the chocolates.]

Of course! What other kinds of balls would a guy like me handle?! Just look at them!!
genice: (er | that... works???)

[personal profile] genice 2017-02-15 03:45 am (UTC)(link)
I'm sure I have no idea.

( Just a touch dry, but he relaxes his shoulders and waves his hand in front of him, laughing it off a moment later. )

I see, I see! Which sport are these ones for?

( They're almost all round. He actually looks closer to see if he can spot patterns that would tell him about the differences, since he's curious, in spite of himself. )
nodyinteam: (watch my back)

[personal profile] nodyinteam 2017-02-15 04:36 am (UTC)(link)
[By looking closer, he will indeed be able to spot patterns, like so! Nekomaru leans over next to him to see which one he's referring to.]

That would be a baseball! Pretty neat, huh?
genice: (listen | to this explanation)

[personal profile] genice 2017-02-18 08:00 am (UTC)(link)
( he leans in closer, evaluating the baseball chocolate in question. Victor vaguely realises he doesn't strictly remember what a baseball looks like. it was round, and white he thinks; did they have coloured stitching? not that the chocolate is going to inform him of those kind of details. he's just trying to summon an imagine into his head.

huh.
)

It even has the stitching... that's what the lines are, right? What fun!
nodyinteam: (take me on)

[personal profile] nodyinteam 2017-02-19 11:44 pm (UTC)(link)
That's right! I didn't want to spare any detail. That way anyone who got these chocolates would know exactly what kinds of balls they're putting in their mouths!
genice: (laugh | everything is great)

[personal profile] genice 2017-02-22 03:05 am (UTC)(link)
( he has to laugh again, thinking to himself, Chris would love his guy. )

That's a kindness, to be certain... which ones are these?

( he's gesturing to volleyballs. )
nodyinteam: (cool stats bro)

[personal profile] nodyinteam 2017-02-23 09:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Volleyballs! Have you ever played that one before?
genice: (greet | a new friend)

[personal profile] genice 2017-02-26 10:48 am (UTC)(link)
Nope! ( he announces so cheerfully, flashing Nekomaru a grin. ) That's the one you can play on the beach too, right?
nodyinteam: (bara-ing it all)

[personal profile] nodyinteam 2017-02-27 03:37 am (UTC)(link)
Well you should give it a try one time! But I think you have the right one in mind... It's the sport where you use your hands to volley the ball back and forth over a net!
genice: (laugh | everything is great)

[personal profile] genice 2017-02-27 03:47 am (UTC)(link)
I'm not really interested...

( He says with a shrug; Victor, too cut and dry when it comes down the line. still, he seems pleased he recognised the sport once named. see! he pays more attention that he realises! )

Yes, that one! With no racquets.
nodyinteam: (casual)

[personal profile] nodyinteam 2017-02-27 05:06 pm (UTC)(link)
You're not? Just like that?! At least you know your stuff...

Tell me, Victor. Is there any sport out there that you yearn to try, or is it only figure skating in that heart of yours?!
genice: (say | the cat's out of the bag)

[personal profile] genice 2017-02-28 02:04 am (UTC)(link)
( he's such a simple man. such an earnest man. such an athlete who really just was happy with His Sport, though: )

For fun Sure, I suppose I'd try just about anything. But for keeps? No, there's only room for the ice in my heart.

( tapping a closed fist against the centre of his chest. unlike Madonna, it's not the freezing that he believes keeps your heart closed off; it's what you do when in that chill air. )
nodyinteam: (ready to rumble)

[personal profile] nodyinteam 2017-02-28 08:19 pm (UTC)(link)
Ha! Well I'm not trying to seduce you to a different sport. Let it be known that NEKOMARU NIDAI is no homewrecker!

[He folds his arms with a grin.]

But any sport you'd want to try for fun, I could set it up!
genice: (chat | your lie in april)

[personal profile] genice 2017-03-01 02:21 am (UTC)(link)
( he ends up laughing at that; ah, but it's more true than it is false, isn't it? Victor cannot be seduced away from the ice, except, perhaps, by Yuuri. and that's a seduction wrapped up in a life and love that also includes the ice.

what a life to be living.
)

Why not invite me along if you're arranging something for easier audiences? I imagine there's some number of the people here who enjoy all kinds of sports.
nodyinteam: (sparking laugh)

[personal profile] nodyinteam 2017-03-01 03:06 am (UTC)(link)
[What an ice life he leads.]

Of course! I've been thinking of trying to put something together sometime, to let the steam off! It looks like a lot of people around here can benefit from it!
genice: (huh | no really what)

[personal profile] genice 2017-03-01 03:21 am (UTC)(link)
( he tends to glide by pretty well, tbh )

Wow, what a way to say everyone's tense... What kind of "something" did you have in mind?
nodyinteam: (cool stats bro)

[personal profile] nodyinteam 2017-03-01 04:14 am (UTC)(link)
Well they have to be! If they're cooped up in this spaceship and not resorting to sports to release all of their pent-up feelings...

I'm not exactly sure, but we have enough people here that we could easily get some kind of a team sport together!
genice: (smile | feel the burn)

[personal profile] genice 2017-03-01 05:27 am (UTC)(link)
Huh.

( he's not wrong, but the most "team" Victor's ever done is goofing around in practice lifting Yuuri, next to the less literal part of being "Team Russia" and all competing together in a sense... and against each other literally... )

One that involves balls? ... Beach volleyball sounds fun!
nodyinteam: (chummy)

[personal profile] nodyinteam 2017-03-01 06:51 am (UTC)(link)
[That's close enough!! And maybe Victor can learn more about the value of teamwork!!]

Hahaha! I wonder where you got that idea. [He says that sarcastically before he goes on.]

It's definitely one of the easiest sports to play... It's a splendid choice!
genice: (cheer | GANBA)

[personal profile] genice 2017-03-01 07:21 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, here or there.

( he says airily, as if the sarcasm didn't register at all... even though it certainly had. he brings his hands to his chest and lets his eyes light up, more enamoured of the idea of the beach involved than the volleyball. )

Then whenever we find a planet with a good beach? Game on!
nodyinteam: (watch my back)

[personal profile] nodyinteam 2017-03-01 04:23 pm (UTC)(link)
You know the beach isn't the most necessary part of the sport... but if we do find a place with a nice beach, you can bet I'm setting that up!
genice: (wink | prince piglet)

[personal profile] genice 2017-03-02 05:57 am (UTC)(link)
It's not beach volleyball without the beach...

( this is his priority. we're so sorry, Nekomaru. please bear with this guy ten years your senior who raelly just wants a beach episode, apparently. )
nodyinteam: (chummy)

[personal profile] nodyinteam 2017-03-02 10:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Hahaha! You're right about that! Fine, then - if you want it, you got it!
