Second Floor Common Room, Monday Evening

[wannabe-pan.livejournal.com]

Andrew was fixing some fine food: tomato soup and grilled cheese. An American classic. There was a fairly large pot of the soup, and he had enough bread and cheese to share if anyone else was hungry.

There was also some groovy Latin jazz playing, and he was dancing about the kitchen, head bobbing and hips swaying -- sometimes in time with the music. Life was good.

He'd actually just been walking upstairs to get to his room when he noticed the music and the scent of something sweet and--

Andrew.

He didn't really want Andrew to stop dancing but had a feeling he would if he noticed Liir and as such, he snuck his way into the common room until he was at a good vantage point that shouldn't be noticed too quickly.

And indeed he wasn't notice, as Andrew continued to sway his hips, snap his fingers, and dance about without any hint of trepidation. He even punctuated some of the high notes with a fantastic display of jazz fingers.

All this while competently flipping over the grilled cheese to keep it from burning.

[new-to-liirness.livejournal.com]

He couldn't help it.

Well, after Andrew had already flipped the grilled cheese.





...he giggled.

Seregil was just heading back from work and paused at the door of the room when he heard the music.

He watched for a minute in amusement then commented, "You look like you're having fun."

[wannabe-pan.livejournal.com]

Andrew just kind of froze, hip jutted out, one hand in the air, a spatula mid twirl.

Slowly, he turned about. "I thought I recognized I laugh," he said with a grin. "I'm glad you find me amusing!"

[wannabe-pan.livejournal.com]

Andrew turned around, only blushing slightly. "Cooking is best done with a samba," he said.

"Hungry?"

[new-to-liirness.livejournal.com]

"I find you much more than amusing," he said from his little perch. Where he was, at one of the windows, he looked a little like a bird. Or perhaps it just accented his usual birdishness.

"That smells good."

[therhimineecat.livejournal.com]

"I can eat," Seregil said, coming over to check out what Andrew was cooking.

[wannabe-pan.livejournal.com]

"I was going to come look for you -- see if you wanted any," he said. "I've got one already cooked if you want it." He pointed at a grilled cheese sandwich sitting on plate.

"I've bowls and spoons here, too. Help yourself."

[new-to-liirness.livejournal.com]

He wandered over and, in a fit of something he couldn't quite put a name to, stole a kiss before he picked up the sandwich.

"I'll keep that in mind."

[wannabe-pan.livejournal.com]

"It's not much," he commented, "but it's one of my favorites. Grilled cheese and tomato soup."

He scooped one of the sandwiches hot off the stove top and onto a plate. "I've got bowls and spoons here on the counter, too."

Teddy's free food senses were tingling.

Not really, but he was looking for Liir to give back the crystal and if that happened to coincide with free food...

"Grilled cheese and tomato soup?"

[wannabe-pan.livejournal.com]

Andrew chuckled to himself, enjoying that little jolt he got every time Liir gave him a kiss.

"So what did you think of class today? My robot kind of freaked me out."

[wannabe-pan.livejournal.com]

"Yes, sir," Andrew replied with a smile. "I'll have a fresh one here in about half a minute."

He pointed at the bowls on the counter. "Help yourself."

[new-to-liirness.livejournal.com]

"Mine was pretty nice," he said thoughtfully as he picked up the sandwich and put a corner into his mouth. He tore off a piece, chewed it, and swallowed.

"We talked about some things, actually."

He took another bite.

"But, um, you know that's my world, right? In the far far future, but it's where I came from."

[notthehulk.livejournal.com]

Teddy grinned, going to snag a bowl. "Thanks!"

[new-to-liirness.livejournal.com]

Someone was already enjoying his grilled cheese. He waved from his perch at the window.

"Mmmssmood."

That was sandwich for 'it's good'.

[notthehulk.livejournal.com]

Teddy waved, shaking his head in amusement. "I brought you something."

[wannabe-pan.livejournal.com]

It hadn't crossed his mind till right then.

"Oh, yeah!" He felt guilty for not realizing it sooner.

"It was very, um, nice. Was it very different from your time?"

[wannabe-pan.livejournal.com]

"No problem," Andrew replied, placing a hot sandwich on a plate and sliding it towards Teddy.

"It's the least I can do."

[new-to-liirness.livejournal.com]

He nodded. Rather a lot. Then he swallowed.

"Did you see the statue? The one in the center of the town?"

He kept sticking on that, mostly because it was so unreal. So fantastic. He remembered Nick Chopper is being a bit daft and a bit of a romantic and a cutting wit, not some statue up on a pedestal.

It was almost as bad as what they'd done to the Witch.

[new-to-liirness.livejournal.com]

He blinked and finished chewing before wandering over.

"Oh?"

[therhimineecat.livejournal.com]

"Smells good." Seregil obligingly got the requested dishes.

[notthehulk.livejournal.com]

Best... kinda little brother-in-law ever.

"Thanks!" He took a small bite, letting it cool a bit. "So. How are things?"

[notthehulk.livejournal.com]

Pulling a crystal from his pocket, Teddy held it out for him. "Almost forgot again."
