Beginning Gourmet Cooking Techniques | Friday, 3rd period

Elsa looked fairly puzzled by the time Hannibal's other students filed into the classroom. She'd gotten a message that morning saying that Doctor Lecter wouldn't be in today, and asking if she would be so kind as to put a movie on for the class. There had even been a DVD for her to put in and everything, and while she really hadn't ever worked with a DVD player before, she'd more or less managed to push enough buttons to figure it all out before class.

"Doctor Lecter couldn't make it in for today's lesson," she said, looking only a little over her head at the front of the room, "but he left us a movie to watch, and I made some popcorn for the occasion. And tea... if you're the sort of person who enjoys tea with their popcorn. He didn't give a reason for his absence, but I'm sure he'll be back to teach us more again next week."

And with that, she hit play.

Like you're getting popcorn instead of Hannibal's cooking today!

Cosette Fauchelevent

Watch the Movie!

Really, there's popcorn, and there's tea, and aside from pasta without sauce, that's about the extent of Elsa's cooking prowess. So you're going to take it or leave it, and you're going to like it.

... The movie's (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fried_Green_Tomatoes) pretty good, though Elsa is questioning its educational content somewhat.

Well, Cosette wouldn't complain about popcorn or tea, and would happily partake of both.

The movie is sadly nowhere near as overtly queer as the book was pretty good, too. Yes, she got sniffly at the end, because she'd gotten overly invested in the characters' lives and -- because it was Cosette -- was more than slightly upset that she couldn't make things better for them.

Talk to Elsa!

She knows about as much about what's going on as you do, really. But apparently Doctor Lecter thought she was capable of putting a disc into a little slot and then hitting a button, so that puts her more or less in charge today.

She doesn't know how she feels about that.

OOC!

I have never actually seen this movie. I remember being very wee when it came out, though.

Aaaaaand now I feel old. I was in college! Though I've never seen it, either. Maybe I would have if I'd known about the cannibalism. Is that bad?

Well, I won't judge you for it. :P
