When: Octboer 6th
What: Selling food!
Where: Genessia City
Warnings: None

[Ryo had rented a little mobile cart that he could use to make a little cash. He’s been doing this for a few days now, and business has been good enough that he was able to continue doing it. He has a sample tray with Strawberries coated in candy as well as Takoyaki out for people to try.

Since it is nearly lunch time, he’s taking the initiative to hand prepare some sushi, since over the last few days he’s had people come and specifically request that. Needless to say, the scent of cooked food was flowing in the area and it was pretty alluring to some.

He also has a menu out front for people to look at.]

[Daniella still hadn't done much with work and actually finding a home, she didn't see much of a point. She was fine doing what she was doing. However she stopped as she came across the cart and it caused her to tilt her head curiously.]

What is that?

[gammavirginis]

[ Porrim wanders over the cart, a sucker for trying new things. She pulls up a menu, her eyes falling on the Takoyaki. ]

Fermented fish flakes? How decadent.

[ She wasn't being sarcastic. Marine cuisine was generally limited to the upper crust of troll society. ]

[watercharm]

[Aqua still only has the money that she had arrived with but there is no reason not to stop and see the little food stand. She looks at it with a smile, her eyes catching sight of the strawberries.

She takes a sample between her fingers before bringing the candy shell to her lips.]

This is very good, do you make all these?

[kyoken]

[Ryo had to do something for work. He didn't see himself being able to live comfortably if he didn't.]

What is what? The food?

[kyoken]

I don't know that I would call it decadent, but it is good. [He says as he continues to prepare the sushi.]

You may try a piece of Takoyaki from the sample tray, if you want. [He said before nodding his head in its direction.]

[kyoken]

[He looks up to the blue haired woman as she speaks before returning to his work.]

Yes. Everything is prepared by me. [If he had the time, he would have grown the strawberries himself too, sadly he had to buy those.]

I have more if you would like to buy some.

[gammavirginis]

[ Porrim grabs a toothpick and stabs one of the balls, dropping it into her mouth and giving an exploratory chew. ]

Mmm, delicious. I'll take an order of that.

[kyoken]

[He finishes up the last piece of sushi and then takes off his headband from around his wrist and ties it onto his head. There is an obvious change of his demeanor, moving from a calm, relaxed person to well..a seemingly aggressive and violent one. ]

Cooking time will be be around 7 to 10 minutes! [If these started to become a big seller, he would start preparing some ahead of time. He swiftly gathers the ingredients and picks up a knife and starts hacking it all up. While it may look violent and unrefined, he is actually make precise cuts and hacking it all up neatly. It doesn't take him long to get the ingredients prepared. He pulls out a specialized pan, fills it with the ingredients and starts to cook.]

[imnotcomplete]

Yes. The food is most unusual.

[She is still tilting her head a little more.]

[watercharm]

[She looks down at the sample plate and then up at the handsome salesman.]

I'd love to. How much are they?

[kyoken]

It is typical food where I come from. The red ones are strawberries coated in a candy she'll. The other is Takoyaki. It contains octopus, mayonnaise, ginger pickles and fermented fish flakes.

[kyoken]

The ichogi ame is 5 redbills and you get 8. The takoyaki is 8 redbills and you get 8. Unless there was something else from the menu that you wanted.

[watercharm]

[She looks at the menu carefully for a moment.]

Two Ichogi please.

[Aqua smiles, handing him the money.]

Thank you.

[kyoken]

[He takes the money and prepares her the ichigo ame, taking them off of a tray in the back and placing them on a small paper plate in front of her.]

Here you go. [He places the money into a little register that he has set up.]

[gammavirginis]

I don't mind, it gives us a chance to talk, if that doesn't interrupt your concentration too badly.

[imnotcomplete]

I see. How odd combinations.

[Not that what she made was any better or not, but it was her job as a maid for her to cook, so perhaps she needed to learn more in this world to do that.]

Why combined those lot into food?

[watercharm]

[Aqua smiles.]

Thank you. How long have you been cooking for?

[weavemyownfate]

[Word of Ryo's cart reached Honnouji Second Academy rather quickly; it seemed a lot of staff were impressed by his goods. So eventually Satsuki's curiosity got the better of her and arrived, adorn in her usual military-style school uniform.

When the scent reaches her nose, she gets a feeling she's never quite experienced before. With her upbringing, she was never in kitchens or anything like that. It was odd that something like this would remind her of home, yet it did.

She picked up the menu, looked it over, then greeted the man with a frown, as she won't do.]

Good afternoon. Is there a particular type of sushi you would recommend today?

[kyoken]

You're welcome. [He returns to preparing the sushi.] Ever since I was old enough to handle a knife.

[kyoken]

[Ryo knew his food was good. It wasn't second rate and he prided himself on the things that he could make.]

Hello. [He greeted politely.] The halibut or the yellowtail. Of the fish that I purchased, those were of the highest quality.

[The others were of good quality too, the best that the shopkeepers had to offer, but the halibut and yellowtail still outclassed them.] Not everyone likes those types of fish, but those are my recommendations, Miss.

[kyoken]

It won't interrupt my concentration. [He was used to many different levels of distractions when cooking. He used to work in a busy restaurant, so he knows how to handle it.]

Are you some kind of demon? [He was pretty blunt in asking that.]

[kyoken]

It is the way it is done in my country. Takoyaki was created before I was born. It's a food associated with street vendors. [Like what he was right now.]

[gammavirginis]

[ She chuckles. ] That's a new one. Kind of surprised it took that long, honestly.

No. I think the most label that best encompasses all the desired connotations would be 'alien.'

[imnotcomplete]

But why... Or do you not know?

[It was still a strange combination. Though she turned her head to look around slightly, seeing various people wondering around and some woman as well whom she watched before looking back again.]

[weavemyownfate]

Halibut? That sounds interesting, but I would like to try the yellowtail first, please.

[She has to admit, she can't help but have her doubts- There doesn't appear to be anything particularly exceptional about the young man. In fact, he appears rather lazy. Perhaps he's doing this against his will?

Of course, Satsuki should know better than to judge by ones appearance, but surely someone who owns a cart knows how important presentation is? Ah, the temptation to lecture is there, but for now she will wait to see what happens.]

Have you been a chef for long?
