Thanksgiving Meal, Cafeteria, Thursday

The cafeteria's dining room looked much less institutional today than one might expect. White linens had been draped on the tables, and flowers and autumn leaves were arranged in centerpieces on the tables. It was probably best not to ask where they'd found enough silver and china -- yet, somehow, there it was.

The scene in the kitchen it was another story, and the controlled chaos there was -- while mostly manageable -- definitely loud, hot, and confusing.

In other words, it was a proper Thanksgiving.

Priestly was there, keeping an eye on the desserts and ready to sous-chef away.

Possibly as soon as he figured out just how to do that.

Raven ignored the turkey but helped herself to all the vegetable dishes, then took a seat and wondered who else was still at the school for the holiday.

Maron wasn't really huge on the whole holiday, at least this one, as she didn't super understand it other than there was food and they were to be thankful for it so...

Well, she didn't really need more of an excuse to show up, did she?

Emma had...knives. And vegetables, a large soda (highly caffeinated), and a robot-baby-Marcus that was probably being bounced between fake-parents depending on who had their hands least-full at the moment.

Clearly, it was a miracle nothing was on fire yet.

Kyle was there on time and busy working on his dish.

Azula carried the machine baby Dai into the cafeteria in search of food and stopped, taking in the cafeteria. "Is there some sort of celebration?"

"It's for giving thanks," Maron said, grinning and wriggling her hands for the baby. "So they celebrate with food."

Tara dropped into a seat next to Raven's, Ariela in her lap. "Hi. Do you see any highchairs?"

She didn't need to tell Raven she was happy; even if Raven wasn't an empath, it was radiating off of her.

Carrying Ariela, Tara filled a plate with turkey, vegetables and stuffing and looked around to see who else was there.
trigons_child: (Finding you interesting)

Raven shook her head. "The school is not very baby-friendly," she said. She peered at Tara and smiled. "Caring for a child becomes you. You are very happy."

"I'll have to eat with her on my lap, then." Ariela didn't seem to mind the idea too much, and neither did Tara. "And I am happy, but" -- she covered the baby's ears -- "it's not just her."

"Giving thanks for what?" Azula asked, puzzled. She handed Dai to Maron and the bag with its baby bottles to her. "I know I'm giving thanks Dai will no longer plague my nights."

"Food?" Maron said, as she juggled the baby and the bottles and tried to get settled in. "I think that's it, anyway. I've never celebrated it before."
trigons_child: (Interested)

Raven leaned closer to wiggle a finger at Ariela. "What is it then?" she said. "If you do not mind me asking."

Tara shook her head, but lowered her voice before she talked. "I kissed Kennedy a couple days ago."

"Hmmm..." then she watched Maron like a hawk. "Hold him properly, if he falls our grades our forfeit."

"You could have waited until I'd gotten settled before handing me the bottles," she complained half-heartedly as she worked things out to her satisfaction and making sure she was holding the baby carefully.

Maron wrinkled her nose cheerfully at Dai. "That's right, isn't is, sweetheart? Would have made way more sense that way, oh yes it would have!"

Raven let Ariela reach up and grasp her finger, distracting her from any conversation about mommies kissing other girls. "That is wonderful," she said. "Are you dating now?"

"It'll help train your coordination," she said, dismissive.

She pulled a face at Maron's cheerful rambling, "Don't baby him."

Tara frowned a little, and, in a silly, baby voice said, "I guess? We, um, kind of didn't exactly say. I think we are."

Re: The Dining Room...

[identity profile] gods-gymnast.livejournal.com 2009-11-26 03:00 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, that was a total lost cause.

Maron blinked up at Azula. "I'm a gymnast," she objected. "I have fantastic coordination. And baby talk won't hurt a baby."
