The Ever-Changing Facets of Reality, Monday, Second Period
Today, the Danger Shop was set up to look like a kitchen with various work stations. Vanessa said, "Today Today you're going to practice the art of improvisation by participating in Chopped, the show where each round you're given a basket of four random-ass ingredients and twenty minutes to transform them into an edible dish: first an appetizer, then an entree, and then dessert."
"We won't be eating any of it," Wade added. "Straight up, not gonna do that to ourselves."
Because they picked the secret ingredients.
"We thought about programming fake judges to eat it but then we didn't do that," Vanessa said. That would have taken too much effort. "So we'll just be judging on looks and descriptions. Remember, you have to have all four secret ingredients on the plate, or you could be...chopped."
"Here's a way to win: be super cocky about everything. Or having a very tragic story about wanting to give your money to your parents or a charity. Or have a very empowering story about overcoming some life obstacle with cooking." Wow, Wade had watched a lot of Chopped, huh?
"Also, even though the rules say you just have to have all four ingredients on the plate, when it comes time to judge we're going to be super picky and ding you if they're not all featured, because we like to make this as difficult as possible," Vanessa said. She sounded really cheerful about it
"Now get to it before we decide to change this to a Cutthroat Kitchen thing," Wade said, shooing them over to the baskets.

Appetizer Round
Inside the basket you would find: Cheetos, Tripe, Canned Sardines, and Black Garlic. Good luck making something edible out of that in twenty minutes.
Entree Round
Dessert Round
And remember, there's only one ice cream maker!

It was, after all, far more useful than last week's class, which he certainly didn't need, and he was honestly just relieved that they weren't sticking with the whole search for love thing, which would be a terrible waste of his time.

"I have made you a Cheeto-crusted tripe," Shuri said, presenting her dish, "with a canned sardine and black garlic vinaigrette on a bed of microgreens so you can shove the whole thing under some salad and pretend it was good."
Re: Entree Round
Re: Dessert Round
That would be durian, Shuri. Enjoy!

Re: During the Lecture
This was going to go horribly bad. Just... bad.
Re: Appetizer Round
The soup was...actually not terrible? Illyana knew how to make broth, it wasn't much different than potions, and she'd gone the spicy-savory route since that was her favorite.

Re: Entree Round
She tried. Insomuch as she cooked food and put it on ferns and set lube next to it, look, help.
Re: Dessert Round
That was not a glaze, she just soaked the terrible stinky cake in alcohol.
"I know that growing up as the daughter of two immigrant parents, with a brother on the wrong side of the law, all I really wanted to do was make my parents proud, and hopefully I did so with this dish."
No. No, Janet.
