Third Floor Common Room, Wednesday Afternoon

The twins hadn't tried their hand at real cooking since the last time they'd tried to make cupcakes-which were only half successful. This time, however, they were attempting something much easier and much more fool-proof: the cut and bake kind.
Tea was sitting on the stove, ready to be capped away into a thermos to be brought with the slightly-deformed cookies.

((ooc: open as common rooms are.))

As it just so happened, Anders was in a brownie-baking mood himself, as well as in the mood to bake in a common room not his own.

"Hey, you guys," he said as he arrived in the doorway, laden down with all his baking paraphernalia. "You mind if I join you? I can go back down to my floor . . ."

"Cool." Anders started pulling out boxes, bowls, and utensils, set a couple of sticks of butter to melt on the stove, and lined up his eggs before turning around to look at the twins. "How's finals week going for you guys?"

"Better than I thought, actually," Anders admitted. "It's mostly the Prophecy final project that I'm worried about. I have no idea if we'll even have one for Energy and Fitness."

He prodded at the saucepan of melting butter. "You guys have plans for the break?"

"Sounds like fun," Anders said, a little wistfully. There wasn't much point in going home to Caprica when this holiday didn't exist there. "Different sort of celebration than here?"

"Not over the break," Anders admitted because canon is very skimpy on Colonial holidays. "I'm from the Twelve Colonies of Kobol. Totally different solar system, so we don't have Christmas. I figure I might as well stay here on Earth and celebrate it while I can, right?"

Matilda followed her nose to the Common Room and grined to find the twins. "Hey that smells wonderful. I hope I'm allowed to have a few."

Matilda shruged. "Oh... Yeah I've been studying." She hugged them both back, "I apologize if you missed me."

Matilda wasn't buying it. She did feel bad though. "Hey. Why ddn't you come see ME then?" She noggies them both. "I promise I won't do it again okay?"

She takes it from him and eats it with a smile. "Mmmm salmonella never tasted better."

"I was only kidding, I ate it didn't I?"

"Hey, Matilda!" called Anders, waving at her with a brownie-mix covered spoon.

"Hi there Anders." She smiled warmly. "Brownies? Well I'm glad we're all not spoiling our appitites for lunch."

[identity profile] cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com 2006-12-20 09:08 pm (UTC)(link)
"Lunch, pssht," Anders said with a grin. "This is finals food. Chocolate and sugar are necessary for exams."

"That's a valid point. Do you have any tests today?"

Anders busied himself scraping the brownie batter into the pan he'd just greased -- not without getting a good amount of butter on himself first. "Nope. All done except for Energy and Fitness, which should, I hope, be a breeze." He considered the contents of the baking pan in front of him. "Okay, maybe this isn't gym finals food, exactly . . ."

"You just ruined your own logic." She chuckles. "But then again, brownies are good for any occasion, no need to have an excuse to eat them."

"I specialize in digging myself logic holes. I should fix that habit if I'm ever gonna keep my spy skills up to par," mused Anders. "But it's all worth it for brownies, I figure."
