[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!)

Yeah, I figured as much. Or hoped as much, anyway.

[ It was the 21st century after all, not the middle ages.

He looks at the pan when Yuuri brings it up, eyebrows raising. ] Oh. [ He promptly reaches for the spoon and starts stirring again, huffing a chuckle. ] I really wasn't made for this kind of stuff. But it is pretty fun.

[yokunaru]

[While Jim's stirring, Yuuri leans through the doorway to check on the rest of the workshop attendees. Things on that end are as quiet as a shop filled with people can be, so he feels safe to return to Jim's side after a second. Mostly.]

I'm okay in the kitchen because I grew up in a hot springs resort. I used to help my mom with the cooking until I got busier with my training. [Yuuri tilts his head.] I didn't get to ask earlier, who're you making the chocolate for?

[winscenario]

You can check up on the others, if you want. [ He offers when he notices Yuuri leaning through the door. As long as he's paying attention to the chocolate, he won't let it burn again. Probably. ]

That's neat. Stoves are a rarity where I come from, most people don't really know how to cook anymore. [ Replicators just made everything easier like that, even if it feels like something's lost when sticking to replicator food. ]

Oh. No one, really. [ He shrugs, smiling at Yuuri. ] I just wanted to give it a try. Guess I'll give them to Bones. Sorry, Dr. McCoy.

[yokunaru]

Really? [That's a little surprising, given the way Eluvio has so many cafes and eateries.] How do you and your crew cook anything to eat?

[Yuuri smiles when the doctor's brought up.] I never asked how he got that nickname.

[winscenario]

We don't. We use replicators. [ And because he's gotten some puzzled looks to that before, he goes on to explain. ] They can recycle, transform and materialize just about anything you might need. Food, among those things.

[ Jim's smile is fond at the memory of how that nickname came to be. And how much hell Bones gave him for rolling with it. ] It's... just something he said when we first met. Sort of our thing, really. No one else calls him that.
