selphie_t | 4 ♥ Cookin' Mama 2! Dinner with Friends~ [Video]

[Luceti, if you happen to live in or around Community House 1, then today is your lucky day! If you should just so happen to live on the sixth floor of said house then you may as well be winning the lottery. Or... as far as winning the lottery in Luceti is concerned anyway.

Selphie was looking for something to do and she's been loitering in the community kitchen on their floor and before long, the perky brunette has decided to take her first foray back into cooking. This is the same girl who back home wasn't allowed into a kitchen as a child because she only has a true talent for destroying pans and wasting food. Selphie is also the same girl who was exempted from home-ec without having to sign up for the course.

So why is she trying to cook today? Merely for the hell of it. She feels like experimenting and before long, she's zipped out of the building and down to the store for ingredients. She grabs whatever happens to be handy with reckless abandon and an excited look on her face. Her bags of food are dropped off in the kitchen before she's zooming into the apartment and grabbing the biggest bowl and baking pans she can find.

With that taken care of, the girl begins to pour anything and everything in the bowl and using her hands as mixing spoons. A splash of flour, half a bag of sugar, cayenne pepper, ginger, ponzu sauce, a generous amount of tobasco and this odd red sauce known as Frank's Red Hot.

Before long, her concoction is ready to go! It's poured into the pans and tossed into the preheated oven. She's feeling impatient and has heated the oven to 500ºF to get her creation cooking quickly.

Well... maybe that was a bit too fast as about fifteen minutes in, smoke can be seen wafting out of the sixth floor window. Selphie gawks at the disaster she's created, wishing she could use The End on it to make it all disappear but someone's bound to smell or see the smoke and wonder just what the heck she was up to. Without much further ado, Selphie has shut off the oven and opened the door to reveal some very ruined baking pans and a discovery for making charcoal.]

Uh oh...

[Her journal is open on the counter as clouds of smoke drift over the camera before an explosion can be heard in the background and bits of the uncharred, gloppy mess that she made go flying and coat the walls in the remains of her experiment. She's laughing sheepishly before she notices that her journal is recording the entire scene. Her face floods the screen and one can clearly see the charred bits of her cooking stuck in her hair. The young woman has that cheeky grin in place already.]

It's not what you think!

[And she shuts the journal.

Citizens of Luceti, whatever are you going to do?]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

[There's one very goofy grin filling the screen as Selphie picks a bit of charred disaster out of her hair.]

Everything's just fine! Totally under control with nothing to worry about!

[She's so dead later.]

I'm pretty sure I saw smoke too. Don't tell me you set the oven on fire or something. A lot of people seem to be doing that lately for some reason.

Just a little bit! It's mostly gone and no, I didn't set the oven on fire.

Although... I guess it's gonna need a really good cleaning after this.

... did you set the food on fire?

I don't think so...

But even if I did, it's not on fire anymore!

[Have a shot of the oven full of baking soda and the sink full of ruined pans in black water.]

[Yikes. That looks... exciting.]

What were you trying to make, anyway?

Well...

You know how when you're a kid and you take a bunch of random ingredients and mix them all together to see what you end up with?

[Selphie grimaces at this explanation.]

I was kinda doing that.

In the oven?

[Huh. He'd always just done the "mix a whole bunch of different kinds of drinks in one glass" thing before.]

... I guess that's one way of doing it. I usually just did it with drinks in a glass, and it almost always ended up tasting disgusting.

People were kinda worried about me accidentally making explosives in the dorms.

[A little orange juice... a little gasoline... napalm in the community house anybody?]

Explosives made from food? Is that even possible?

It kinda just exploded in the oven? I don't think it'd be possible to make a weapon out of food.

I don't know, I've had some food that would probably count as a weapon...

If that weapon involves breaking your teeth for the intention of biting people, then yeah, it could be a weapon.

Unless you're talking about somebody making something weapon shaped and intentionally burning it to a crisp.

No, I mean food that's so bad it makes you sick when you eat it. Although that would probably be more like poison than a weapon, huh? And a lot more effective, if you ask me.

Food poisoning?!

[Selphie makes a gagging sound.]

I think I'll pass on ever getting that again.

[She lives in a dorm and has to live off cafeteria food. You do the math.]

You have to admit, it would make a pretty good weapon, though...

And something I'd only wish on somebody who really, really deserves it.

Yeah, that's kind of how I feel about Raine's cooking.

... um, you didn't hear me say that!

[Selphie totally heard that Emil and she lets the sing-song tone of her voice do the talking.]

Uh oh... sounds like somebody's asking for trouble~

What? No! I mean, it's not that she's a bad cook - actually, her cooking isn't bad at all - it's just that she likes to experiment and put strange things into her recipes, and then they end up tasting terrible.

Well, don't you have to experiment every now and again in order to figure out what doesn't work?

There's experimenting and then there's mad science.

And what's wrong with a little mad science every now and again? You just might end up making something useful.

Even if that's true, you shouldn't test it on innocent people.

Who said anything about testing it on innocent people?

[Do you see those eyes lighting up with mischief yet Emil? That impish curl to her lips? The generally mischievous look?]
