Everyday Skills, Friday 2nd Period

Oz was not alone at the front of the Danger Shop (which today resembled a weird hybrid between a kitchen and a laboratory). With him he had a bald, glasses wearing man in chef whites.

"Hey kids. Now one of the more important life skills we're going to cover in this class is cooking, and while I could easily cover this myself, I figured that something so vital needs an expert to help out, so I'd like you to meet my buddy Heston here. He's not the real version, but he'll do. He's going to take you through a few simple recipies. So pair up and put your aprons on."

[Go for it]

Ready to cook!

Wonder what holo!Heston is going to teach you to cook, it'll probably be something simple like eggs on toast.

Find a partner for cooking shenanigans. Someone you trust not to give you food poisoning.

All the needed equipment and ingredients appeared at the students workstations.

Of course in this case the ingredients appeared to be just chocolate and water, but Heston was quick to explain it would end up a delicious chocolate mousse.

The Danger Shop sped up all the wait times so the ice cream would be ready well before the end of the class. Hopefully the class wasn't to distracted by it to follow Heston's instructions.

Yes, the class had just been given dry ice to cook with, there was no way this could go wrong.

Rebecca Logan

Hopefully you'd get helpful answers out of at least one of them...possibly, maybe.

And these are three relatively normal Hester Blumenthal recipes. OM NOM WEIRD

Peter Wiggin

Okay, fine. Rebecca didn't know very much about cooking, but it probably wouldn't kill her to learn a little about it, right? She drummed her fingers on the desk, hoping that whatever it was, it wasn't going to be messy.

Nobody was getting any helpful answers out of Peter today, that's for sure. The only reason he'd left his room at all was because he'd finally decided that the humiliation wasn't quite enough to justify risking summary execution-by-bomb, and now he was sitting here, looking as inaccessible as possible.

Also partly because he had no idea how to cook and he'd never seen anyone do it the old-school (AKA 'not via a machine') way prior to Fandom, so he was pretty much useless anyway.

Rebecca sized people up, trying to determine who looked potentially good at this stuff.

Or just who looked hot enough that she didn't care. Same thing.

Britta Perry

Juliet Darling

"I so don't cook," Juliet informed Rebecca in a murmur. Which was perhaps less a request for partnership than a warning.

"Like I do?" Spoiled rich girls for the win. "This had better not be messy."

"I like this top," Juliet agreed, nodding as she looked down at herself.

She bit a fingernail thoughtfully as she surveyed the cooking stations, trying to figure out which one seemed easiest. "I could try the mousse (http://fandomhigh.livejournal.com/3019670.html?thread=187602838#t187602838). If it goes wrong, it's still chocolate."

"Okay," said Rebecca, eyeing the setup. "How do we start this?"

Rebecca sighed. "Yeah, okay," she said. "Let's give it a shot (http://fandomhigh.livejournal.com/3019670.html?thread=187608470#t187608470)."

Great, like Juliet knew.

"I guess we mix the ice and the water and put them in a bowl?" she hazarded anyhow. "And melt the chocolate."

Which Juliet had absolutely no intention of doing. She'd burn it.

"This is ridiculous," Rebecca bitched, reaching very unwillingly for the bag of ice. "I have a perfectly qualified chef back home."

"Me too," Juliet said. She started breaking up the chocolate, very equally unwillingly. "And even if I didn't, I can always order in. I wouldn't just make mousse."

"Who would?!" Rebecca agreed, shooting the back of Oz's head a contemptuous look. "Mousse is for, like, fancy dinners, anyway. I'm not going to be cooking for those myself."
