Fourth Floor Common Room, Saturday Morning

[henryoredward.livejournal.com]

Henry decided to make breakfast. This was, undoubtedly, the first time he'd ever attempted such a task. But he figured that it couldn't be too hard. He'd watched his cook cooking before, so he felt very positive about the whole thing.
After figuring out how to work the stove, Henry set about the task of making scrambled eggs.

Yawning, Dean wandered into the Common Room intent on finding some breakfast.

Henry was more awake than anyone had a right to be at this hour. "Good morning!" He chirped.

"Morning. I'll let you know if it's good, after I've had some coffee," Dean replied, heading for the coffee maker.

Henry nods. He'd like to offer Dean some eggs, but he's not too sure yet if they're a success.

Dean poured himself a cup and took a drink before turning back to the stranger. "Sorry, morning's not really my best time of day and I had kinda a late night last night. Dean Winchester."

"Henry Jekyll." He instinctively went to put out his right hand, but remembered his cooking, and quickly turned back around to the eggs.

"Nice to meet you." Dean watched him for a few minutes, leaning against the counter and sipping his coffee. "You have no idea what you're doing, do you?"

"What? Oh, no, I can cook. I mean, that is to say-" He hung his head. "Not a bloody inkling."

Peter came in and gave a wave. "Hey. Free food?"

Henry was slowly losing confidence in his cooking abilities. "I'm attempting to make eggs, but it doesn't seem to be working." He admitted. "However, there are some muffins in the bag on the table." He sighed. "Those will probably be safe."

[repeterpetrelli.livejournal.com]

"Thanks." Peter took a muffin. "Peter Petrelli. Nice to meet you."

Dean grinned. "I can give you a hand if you want. Been cooking for my brother and me since I was about six." He nodded towards the eggs. "Those are probably a little overcooked, but not bad for a first try. But we can start over, maybe add in some bacon and toast too..."

"Hey, Peter. Haven't taken any long walks off short roofs lately, have you?" Dean teased.

Free food was free food. Even if it gave you food poisoning.

"Hey," Teddy paused trying to recall his name. "Henry!"

"Thinking about trying to jump off the couch," Peter replied, half-seriously.

[saltandammo.livejournal.com]

"That's probably safe enough," Dean decided. "As long as you don't get too much forward momentum and take out the tv."

[repeterpetrelli.livejournal.com]

Well now he had to. Peter climbed up onto the cushions. "What do you think? Maybe try the back?"

[saltandammo.livejournal.com]

Dean grinned. "Yeah, I think the back is still low enough to be safe. Mind you, if you break, sprain or cut anything, I'm going to disavow any knowledge and responsibility."

[repeterpetrelli.livejournal.com]

"I'll cover for you," Peter promised. He stood up on the back of the couch. "Ready?"

[henryoredward.livejournal.com]

"You're quite welcome. My name's Henry Jekyll."

[henryoredward.livejournal.com]

"Overcooked?" After a bit of fumbling, Henry turned off the heat. He figured he might as well salvage what he could, so he scraped the eggs out onto a plate.
"Hmmm. I'm afraid I didn't purchase any bacon." He thinks for a moment. "There are muffins in the bag," He motioned to a shopping bag on the counter, "but I've never seen those toasted."

Henry did the quick run-through of people he's met, and remembered Teddy watching the television. "Good morning, Teddy. There are muffins on the table, and you're quite welcome to some while I finish these eggs."

[repeterpetrelli.livejournal.com]

"What brings you to Fandom, Henry?" Peter asked.

[henryoredward.livejournal.com]

"It's not very often one gets a chance to study in the future." Henry responded. Anticipating the next question, he adds, "I'm from London, eighteen hundred and eighty-six."

"They can be, but not in that kind of toaster," Dean said, nodding at the toaster sitting on the counter. "But muffins are a good non-cooking brekkie food. And don't worry, the eggs are edible; they just might be a bit more chewy. First time Sammy tried cooking eggs, he set them on fire."
