Fandom High Graduation Ceremony, Class of 2022, Early Saturday Evening

[bigdamnprincipal]

There were normal traditions, and there were Fandom traditions, and having this party get started right around dusk was definitely a Fandom tradition. As the sun went down, the finishing touches of decorations were made; the lawn of the school had been lit up with blue and gold lights, and there were chairs set up for all of the graduates, along with plenty of seats for guests to come and watch. There were more people here than usual with families, alumni, and the island's latest guests, but that just meant having more folks around to celebrate the graduates. Surely, that wouldn't end poorly.

Congratulations, Class of 2022! You made it!

"Well, of course," said Ignis, almost blithely, because, apparently, he just could not turn it off, "it's just a matter of making sure it's properly cooked on the one side and that you've use enough oil to prevent sticking before you do it. Patience, as always, is key..."

Goose blinked a bit of that, “oh,” he stared, “I tried flipping it straight away,” of course he had, “and then that didn’t work and I sent the pan flying and it hit the wall,”

The attempt had been a disaster, he had been lucky not to burn the apartment down.

"....ah," said Ignis, who really felt he should not be surprised, but he could at least be disappointed...but then had to remind himself that things had gone a bit...Fandom. Apparently, Shane forgetting everything he'd been taught was Ignis' own 'pregnant with daemon twins.'

It would be an interesting discussion, between him and Prompto, as to which was worse.

"Yes, well, typically, you want to also keep the pan on the stove in those instances..."

Goose stared at Ignis for a few moments as he tilted his head slightly, “Oh …I should have done that shouldn’t I?” he blinked. “I’ll remember that for next time!” he said brightly because that was what Ignis wanted to hear right now.

"...Are you sure you'll even survive the next time?"

Ignis.

It was a question out of genuine concern, though, despite the dryness of the words. He did actually care for this man a considerable amount, after all, and it would be a shame if his apparent cooking show lead to an untimely demise during one of these weekends.

“I mean I’ve survived worse,” Goose considered, “I think I should be able to survive my cooking,”

It wasn’t a competition Goose.

“Why?” he looked at Ignis with wide eyes, “do you think I should stop?”

Re: Welcome! [Grad 22]

[chef_chocobro]

"I think," Ignis offered, "that perhaps you just need...some guidance."

In fact, he knew for a fact that all Shane needed was steady guidance from a patient instructor, because they'd already done that already, but okay.

“Oh I would like that,” Goose said as he thought about it, “even though I don’t know anyone who would want to guide me in cooking,” he looked a little disheartened at that, “at least anyone here, maybe if I was home Doc would,”

"Well, it just so happens," said Ignis, feeling almost as if he was being set up to say exactly these words for this specific intention, "that I have made a career," apparently!, "on such instructions, you know."

Re: Welcome! [Grad 22]

Goose’s eyes were wide and he stared at Ignis as if he thought he had misheard him, “you would be willing to teach me?” he finally squeaked out.

Re: Welcome! [Grad 22]

At this point, Ignis felt almost obligated to, really. In more ways than one!

"It's the very least I could do," he said, and, taking a moment to hold back a sigh of resignation, "for a fan..."

“I would very much like that,” Goose nodded and he started turning pink as he did, “I would like that a lot,” he rubbed the back of his neck suddenly feeling very awkward and shy.
