Fifth Floor Common Room, Wednesday Evening

After a trip to the grocery store, Roy was ready to actually fend for himself for once, and what better to make on a chilly January day than some nice, spicy comfort food? That was right. Roy was making chili. From Oliver Queen's recipe. One teaspoon cayenne, three tablespoons chili powder, and a healthy dose of Tabasco sauce. God help the unwary.

While it simmered away on the stove, he sat down and grabbed the remote to see what was on TV. This was shaping up to be a good night, really. Chili, TV, and the entertainment value of rookies experiencing chili that tasted like fire for the first time. Yeah, he had no complaints.

And for the record: Yes, he did have functioning taste buds. His sanity...well, that was more questionable.

((Open!))

"Oh, he's great," Hayley said. "And gorgeous too. Not that, uhhh, I guess you'd care about that."

"No, not really," Roy agreed. "Not really my thing. Not that there's anything wrong with that, just...not my thing."

"Oh yeah," Hayley said, nodding like a bobblehead. "I know exactly that. Besides, that means I might have a chance." She winked, but laughed. She wasn't exactly meaning that flirtatious comment seriously.

Yeah, this girl seemed a little...off? Which wasn't really Roy's type, so...yeah. "You can at least have some chili," he offered.

Hayley would be happy Roy only thought she was a 'little' off.

She finally dished herself out some chili.

"Well, it's the next best thing," she said. She sniffed it, eagerly. "Mmmmm."

Roy had a feeling Hayley was about to become a lot less interested in him. "Yeah?"

[identity profile] onlysmokesnics.livejournal.com 2010-01-14 03:15 am (UTC)(link)
Hayley then took a bite and just about choked.

She sputtered, dropping the bowl to the table with a little clunk but amazingly not spilling it.

"...Geepers!"

"That's one word for it," Roy agreed.

"That wouldn't put hair on your chest," Hayley said, her eyes watering. "That'd burn it off!"

He shrugged. "I like it."

"Jeepers," Hayley said, finally going to get a glass of water. "Do you gargle with matches or something?"

She had no idea that didn't make a lick of sense.

"...no," Roy said. "That would be very uncomfortable."

[identity profile] onlysmokesnics.livejournal.com 2010-01-14 03:45 am (UTC)(link)
Hayley paused to think about it. "...yeah, that probably would hurt."

Then she got an even more fantastical idea. "You're not part dragon, are you?"
exspeedydotcom: ([comic] no)

[personal profile] exspeedydotcom 2010-01-14 04:04 am (UTC)(link)
"...no," Roy said. "No, I'm just a guy."

[identity profile] onlysmokesnics.livejournal.com 2010-01-14 04:12 am (UTC)(link)
"A guy who really likes his spice," Hayley said. "...and a pretty mean sense of humor."

The smirk on her face betrayed the fact she found the practical joke amusing.
