Fifth Floor Common Room [evening]

[justwantsquiet.livejournal.com]

Sookie had spent part of the evening on the phone with her Gran and with Tara, trying to get either of them to come visit for Parents' Weekend. The result -- aside from promises that both of them would try to make it -- was a craving for something from home.

Which was brought her out to the common room to bake a pie. This served dual purposes:

a) It smelled great and would likely provide her with company as a result, and

b) Now she had something to eat while watching Yell, which was apparently from her time but she'd still never seen. So pie seemed like a good accompaniment to being curled up on the couch and staring wide-eyed at the screen. (It was scary, okay.)

[omg I am bad at posting CRs without food in them. what is wrong with me? but I was given more iconses by SOMEONE, so clearly I had to post! open!]

"And I definitely appreciate it," Hurley said, getting a slice. "I wish I could cook like this. Or... half as good."

"I've just been doing it forever," she said, blushing a little. "It's not hard to learn! I taught Bobby to make cookies the other day."

For a given value of 'taught.'

"Oh, I can do it," Hurley said. "Mostly, like, enchiladas and empanadas and stuff. And pancakes. But nothing like this pie."

"See, I wouldn't know how to cook an enchilada if the recipe came up and smacked me in the face," she said cheerfully. "Though I can tackle pancakes."

"Guess people have their specialties, right?" Hurley said. He took a bite of the pie as he sat. "Oh, delicious."

"Thank you," Sookie beamed. "You have to make enchiladas for me sometime. I've just decided."

"Totally," Hurley said. "Name a time and a place, and it's done."

"I'll bring dessert," Sookie said with a bright smile.

"Awesome," Hurley said. "I can pick up supplies after work tomorrow."
