Chemistry; Tuesday, Period One [ 03/01 ].

When the students returned to the chemistry classroom after their long (too long, in Kūkaku's opinion) vacation, they'd find a note on the board to relocate to the home ec kitchen. And once they were there, they'd find their teacher there, as well as her two servants in aprons and chef hats, mixing up something in large bowls.

"Mornin', class," Kūkaku greeted them. "As ya can see, we're doin' a little bit of cookin' today. It's actually a little known fact that I'm a fuck amazin' cook, because, guess what? All cookin' is is chemistry. Ya got a mix of certain ingredients that cause a chemical reaction with heat and each other to make somethin' delicious. Or, if you cook like Shiroganehiko, somethin' awful."

Apparently, Koganehiko was the chef of the two. Kūkaku launched into a short lecture about the concept of cooking as chemistry, and even a little bit into how chemistry works its way into having quality ingredients, from bananas and their ripeness to the oxidation of meat.

"Now," she continued, "one of the most notorious things you can cook that demands for the precision and care of a chemist is a souffle. You don't get a souffle just right, and it'll fail completely. Usually, it implodes in on itself..."

Here, Kūkaku gained that grin that the students should be used to by now. "So, you could go ahead and see how you can do with some typical souffle recipes and try to make 'em so they don't fall. Or, you could give it a little twist and try my own personal handwavey recipe, and try to make 'em so they don't explode all over your face. Clearly, that souffle isn't edible, but it's a bit more fun."

Ah, it felt good to be back.

Alex was hoping if the souffle turned out right, that they could eat it at the end of class. Because now, she was hungry.

"Are you getting hungry, too?" Elle asked, half to Alex and half to anybody.

"I am," she nodded. "Seriously considering a run to J,GOB or the Perk after class."
