[Yeah, she knows it's hot. You don't have to tell her.]
With what? My beautiful smile?
[a smile she then demonstrates, baring her teeth.]
Alright so, long story short, Nate went divin' awhile back and found out there were some sharks at the bottom of this lake, right? So, smart boy he is, he came to Taako and me to go on a dive with him, so the two of us could crowd control while he sank to the bottom. [She pulls out her phone here, She has a few pictures of the sharktopus they ran into.]
Anyway, I've been slaying lake sharks since then, mostly for fun, but shark steak isn't bad when put in a good chef's capable hands.
Oh. [She turns back to look out at the lake, grinning at that.] I dunno how you managed to avoid learnin' that Taako an' I are bomb chefs, but yeah. Burgers are way easy.
[a beat] As long as you don't mind what meat's in 'em.
Probably trapped in an umbrella? [She's funny, this girl.]
And we did. For a little while. Before you showed up here. [That was Lup's first Hadriel event. It was both awful and kind of amazing.] But ingredients are pretty hard to come by and Taako's a lazy bum. But if you want a burger or anything else, we can throw shit together for you. What ingredients we can't find, we can magic up.
γHe's not a lazy bum like Taako! Or, that's what Atem wishes to believe anyway.γ
Stop it, I don't think my heart can handle this many emotions, I might die from happiness right here.
γHe, of course, is messing around, it's all in the tone. No, but really, that's the best news he's heard in a long time now.γ
I think Bakura would hav-- γHahah... abort, abort, this is not a drill. Proceed to ignore the sudden pained expression before he changes it in a jiffy.γ Never mind. Can you actually eat magic stuff?
Barry! [Alright, Atem is getting a playful nudge to the side with her elbow for that one, the woman snorting at the idea. Sure, she loves to drag the man into the kitchen and cook with her, but unsupervised? Not a chance.]
Barry isn't allowed in the kitchen unless I'm there with him. Taako's banned him a million times. He's a total genius in the lab, but can't be trusted alone in the kitchen. That's just fact. Not a chance.
[Lup's brows raise curiously at the cut off question, just what had he meant to ask, before Atem very deliberately changes the subject. HM. What's that about?] Sure. Not to throw more points under my twin for the Evocation versus Transmutation debate, but it's what Taako's good at. He can make some pretty dank shit out of rando junk.

[Lup uses this newfound power for good only, naturally.]
no subject
Damn that gives him an idea, maybe for later.γ
Are there more of these in there? And the most important... did it taste good?
γTakoyaki was the best, as well as octopus teppanyaki!
... funny, Taako... tako... octopus... Heh... That happens when you lived in Japan for a few years.γ
no subject
Natch to both of those, but I'm a little offended you even had to ask the second question. Don't you know I can make anything taste great?
no subject
I... actually didn't.... γGasp!!! That gives him an idea!!!γ
Lup... Lup!! Do you know what a burger is?!
no subject
[a beat] As long as you don't mind what meat's in 'em.
no subject
γSeriously, though, he's been aching for a single burger ever since he got there!γ
I don't care! Just make it taste like one! Why haven't you and your brother set up a restaurant in this place? We need it!

What about Barry?

γLIKE HIMSELF, not that he will let her know that!
Nothing, as always. He didn't think his roommate's departure β aka. his sworn enemy β would affect him this much.γ
Look, as long as it is not real trash he's using... I will pay him.
γHe doesn't know what but he will!γ
no subject
Also, fuck you, Atem, if Lup finds out you can't cook, she's going to teach you herself. Take care of yourself!]
What? For your burger? That's free, babe. Don't even worry about it.
no subject
γHE DOESN'T KNOW HELP HIM! I mean, he can cook an egg, pour some milk on the cereal, open a can.......... he's doomed. He's Barry.
He falls silent after that, because you know, fishing, and at some point, he just leans on her.γ
no subject
Atem eventually leans on her and Lup plops an arm around his shoulders casually, letting him stay close. It's a nice day just to be near friends.]
