4th Floor Common Room - Monday Evening

Surprise surprise, Emmett was bored. He had been watching a lot of Food Network lately (a LOT of it) and decided that, hey, as long he was living among humans, the least he could do was use them as guinea pigs for testing out his culinary skills.

So here he was in the kitchen making peanut butter brownies. They looked good on TV and the Italian chick with giant knockers seemed very enthusiastic about them.

He had no idea how they were going to come out. He followed the directions right and it didn't smell awful so maybe they were good. Possibly?

Ben had "potential free food" radar. "Hello," he said, poking his head into the common room. "Smells good in here."
momslilassassin: (Ben: I can smirk too)

"Me either," Ben said cheerfully. "We have machines that do that for us at home."
momslilassassin: (Ben: grin)

Ben gave the brownies an appraising look, then weighed the truth against the possibility of getting one if he didn't lie.

"No," he decided.

"Brownies are a totally nutritious dinner if I have them with milk, right?" Ben checked. "Thank you!"
momslilassassin: (Ben: grin)

"Sure thing," Ben said, taking a bite. "If I die, make sure you give me a better story than 'death by brownie', okay?"

Mac wandered in, mug in hand, and made her way directly to the coffee. Caffeine, pretty.

Not that she didn't peer at what Emmett might be doing as she did that.

"What are you making?" she asked after a moment.

Wow, that was some brownie excitement.

"Uh, sure," Mac replied after a moment. "Sounds good." She filled her mug, before turning back to him. "... They don't have any weird extra ingredients in, right?" Best to check when there was that level of enthusiasm.

"That was very brave of me," Ben decided with a grin. "Are you allergic to chocolate? Or just tried cooking so you could addict people to your brownies and rule Fandom with an iron fist?"

It's possible Ben had thought too much about this.
momslilassassin: (Ben: grin)

Ben waved a brownie at her. "Hi! Did you have fun on the cruise?"
momslilassassin: (Ben: grin)

"Make sure you remember who gave you the idea and be merciful," Ben teased.

"The only drug I do is caffeine," Mac assured him quickly. "I just know what people do around here sometimes."

Mac offered him a smile and a wave in return with the hand not gripping her coffee mug.

"It was great," she replied with a nod. "Kind of sucks to be back here."
momslilassassin: (Ben: focused)

"Yeah, the cold is getting really tiresome," Ben agreed, "but being back in class is nice."

Ben was weird.

"I only actually have class one day a week," Mac admitted, stirring at the coffee in her mug. "I... picked a really weird timetable for my last semester."

It was Monday night, and so that meant Cal was en route to find a TV, pausing a moment at the door of the common room on his floor when he realized that someone was already in there, watching something, and doing something, too.

At least the doing something appeared to be food.

And it was a repeat tonight.

Cal considered this carefully a moment before shrugging, deciding why not, and wandering in. "What'cha making?"
