cafeteria | mid afternoon | wednesday | 25 november

Apparently, there was a holiday tomorrow. From what Jonas had gathered from the books he'd read, it revolved around a lot of food, togetherness and was descended from a shared meal by two very different groups long ago.

Needless to say, Jonas had never celebrated Thanksgiving in the Community. Besides ceremonies for Days of Birth, nothing had really been celebrated so Jonas found these specially singled out days as half a curiosity and half enjoyment.

And, while today wasn't the holiday, Jonas found himself in the cafeteria, idly picking at his food (mashed potatoes had a very strange texture) and paging through a book on various holidays. Christmas would, undoubtedly, be the next thing he looked up that. That holiday just seemed...complicated.

[open, sure!]

Kate chuckled softly. "That's not strange, that's just useful! Did you come up with anything interesting?"

"...ice cream?" Yeah, he had a one track mind sometimes. "I don't think it'd work very well though."

[vanillajello]

"No, I don't think it would," she agreed. "There are ice cream sandwiches, though. But they're not at all like sandwiches, really."

"They're are?" For someone who had a brother obsessed with ice cream, he'd yet to hear about these. "They use actual bread?"

[vanillajello]

"No, they're more like two cookies with ice cream between them," she explained. "Which is really just pure genious. No way you can go wrong with cookies and ice cream."

"That sounds like a lot of sugar," he said and grinned. "I didn't know those were an actual sandwich. I might have to try one. Do they use different types of ice cream?"

[vanillajello]

"Different flavors. Mostly vanilla, though." She grinned. "A lot of sugar is a good thing."

"My brother would be a fan of yours," he said and laughed. "Nonetheless, I still want to go and find a package of those now. They sound good and make me feel less foolish for thinking of ice cream on a sandwich."

[vanillajello]

"Your brother must be a smart kid," Kate grinned. "And nothing foolish about ice cream on a sandwich. That's how new stuff gets thought up."
