6th Floor Kitchen, Friday Evening

[vanillajello]

Kate was - and had been for some time - in the sixth floor kitchen again, just as she had handwavily, while the mun slept like a sleepy thing been the day before.

Thursday’s shopping trip had been all about getting most of the ingredients for the actual foods served at the party, so Friday had seen Kate buying mostly drinks and fruit, which she was now dealing with in the kitchen.

She also looked at some recipes. To her credit, they only made her look slightly lost.


[OOC: Open! Jen is awesome. That is all.]

After all her other errands, Joan finally made her way up to the sixth floor.

"Hey, Kate, how's it going?"

[vanillajello]

Kate turned around to face her, and smiled.

"Everything's going great. I've pretty much found everything I wanted. How's things with you?"

"Well, Liir is currently a girl," Joan said. "And some guy who owns a boat looks like my mom today. But I got the decorations."

[vanillajello]

"I woke up to Bobby screaming like a girl, because he was one," Kate grinned. "It was easy to see it was going to be an interesting day. Some guy looked like your mom? That must've been weird for you."

[joan-notjane.livejournal.com]

"Totally weird," Joan agreed. "And have you met Jon O'Neill? Because he looks just like my younger brother. Apparently he's this guys teenage clone or something. It's pretty damn bizarre."

[vanillajello]

That got a raised eyebrow, along with an amused smile. "This place is both weird and complicated. I'm so glad nothing like that has happened to me. Yet."

Liir made his way up to the kitchen to start in on things and was quite glad to see someone was already there.

"Hello. I got turned into a girl, but I should hope you can tell who it is."

He had the broom, after all.

"Do you think being a girl will make you a better or worse cook?" Joan teased.

[new-to-liirness.livejournal.com]

"Worse, definitely," he told her as he settled his things, and his dog, well away from the kitchen, "if only because I'm not used to the size of myself. Or the, er, balance."

Joan crouched down to give Makejoy scritches. "I'm guessing flying while you're like this would be a bad plan."

[new-to-liirness.livejournal.com]

"Now that's a horse of a different color entirely," he told her with a quick grin, "but that might have something to do with feeling more at home in the air than anything else."

[joan-notjane.livejournal.com]

"Too bad we have work to do," she said, grinning back.

[vanillajello]

"Hey Liir," Kate grinned. Really, the broom was a pretty big clue. "You too, huh?"

[new-to-liirness.livejournal.com]

"'Me too', yes," he admitted as he put down his bag. Makejoy pounded up the steps behind him, but she curled up near his things, well away from the kitchen.

"I hate leaving her in the room by herself. So... how are you, other than your correct gender, and what would you like me to work on tonight?"

[vanillajello]

"I'm good, thanks, although probably indulging in schadenfreude too much," Kate grinned. "I thought tonight would be good for some handwavey foods. The oven pig thing can probably wait 'til tomorrow."

[new-to-liirness.livejournal.com]

"Of course," he agreed, "though I'm unfamiliar with the word. Schaden-- what?"

Hurley came up after he'd gotten off work, planning on making chicken tacos. He had supplies with him in a paper bag.

"Oh, hey," he said.

[vanillajello]

"Hi," Kate greeted the new girl with a smile. Then she frowned, remembering what the day was like. "Are you usually a girl?"

[likes-chicken.livejournal.com]

"Nope," Hurley said. "I'm Hurley. Just with... yeah."

[vanillajello]

"Okay. We probably haven't met before, and it's not just that you don't have your usual body," Kate said with a slight smirk. "I'm Kate."

[likes-chicken.livejournal.com]

"See, I was afraid to ask," Hurley admitted. "But I'm guessing you're normally a girl?"

[joan-notjane.livejournal.com]

"Hi," Joan said with a wave. "Who are you?"

[likes-chicken.livejournal.com]

"It's me, dude," Hurley said. "...oh wait, I guess that doesn't work."

[joan-notjane.livejournal.com]

Actually, the 'dude' plus the ethnicity sort of clued her in.

"Hurley?"

[likes-chicken.livejournal.com]

Hurley nodded. "Yeah," he said. "Not the first time this has happened to me."
