[Someone has been busy today. The kitchen and Distillery has been noisy and bustling, a departure from the much more quiet days when the illness was spreading through the Bastion and survival was once more on the uncertain scale of things. Somewhere around the time that the night cycle begins, when the sky is more of an orange-ish glow fading in to blue and purple, a large spread of food has been set up near the Distillery with glass lanterns hanging overhead.

Just like any other time there has been a feast be it random or planned, there is a wide selection of food on the covered, decorated tables. There's even meat this time! And yes, Aoi, your doughnuts have been transferred from your trees to a platter on the table. There's even a section for Paar, complete with massive amounts of bbq'd mammoth meat! You can thank Colin for that.

There's really no announcement for the feast, but chances are if you're outside at any point today you'll see the progress towards the set up, or smell the delicious scents wafting over the Bastion. (There might even be music playing, if Colin finds a way to provide it!)

Either way, come dusk food will be ready and mingling will be had!]

(ooc: Standard mingle log right here. Throw your threads up, poke other people's threads, and eat all the food!)

[sighs, and drops a kiss onto Rin's head]

..Rin-chan, what exactly are you trying to prove?

[hellpyre]

... I don't wanna be the person I used to be, Kaoru. I'm doin' somethin' here. Somethin' good.

[individuates]

…and that means you can't take it easy on yourself for a couple of weeks? We just got over a plague, Rin-chan.

[hellpyre]

I survived. Ain't that reason enough to come back stronger than ever?

[individuates]

You think this is a video game? You beat the boss and level up instantly?

We're human, Rin-chan, this stuff takes time. You will come back stronger than ever but you need some time to recuperate first.

[hellpyre]

That'd sure as hell be easier...

[She sighs, and Tepig sees that as a reason to get up and crawl in to her lap. After flailing his little back legs a bit first, since it's not easy to climb on things with such stubby limbs.]

I don't like acceptin' things like that.

[individuates]

[can't help a small chuckle, reaching out to rub Tepig gently]

I'm afraid you get little choice in the matter.

[hellpyre]

Piiiig!

... alright, alright. I'll... take it easy.

[individuates]

Good girl~!

[satisfied!]

And if you're not taking it easy I'm sure Tepig will let you know.

[hellpyre]

[Just... going to get her pet a look.

To which Tepig grins back up at her innocently.]

Pig!

[individuates]

Good Buta-chan~! I knew I could count on you!

[hellpyre]

... that's a terrible name.

[individuates]

Piggy-wiggy?

[hellpyre]

No! Even worse!

[individuates]

Better than the food names!

[hellpyre]

Can't you come up with a single good name?!

[individuates]

How dare you my names are totally acceptable.

((mun does not have an appropriate icon for a how-dare-you gasp, but please imagine one)

[hellpyre]

You named your egg "Tama-chan". That's just as bad as calling a cat "Neko-chan".

[individuates]

Not true! Cats are Tama, just like dogs are Pochi.

I was being avant-garde! [not true and he knows it. He's just trying to save face]

[hellpyre]

... what the fuck is that?

[You've lost her.]

You're just callin' him "Pig"! That's not original. At all.

[individuates]

…how is that any different to you having a Tepig and calling it Tepig?!

[hellpyre]

That's... just how it works in their world, I'unno. Don't ask me, ask Hilda about that.

[She looks down at Tepig.]

Do you want a name?

Pig... Tepig Tepig!

... that's a yes. You don't wanna be called Buta-chan though, do you?

Piiig...

"Not really."

[individuates]

…and now you speak their language?

[what is going on…?]

[hellpyre]

Kinda. It's not like how that guy N can actually hear them, but it's close. See I've always been able to hear demons, that's just a thing that comes with bein' a demon. But other stuff... I'unno it's more like I can understand what they're gettin' across, just not the actual words.

... that probably doesn't make any sense, does it?

[individuates]

It kinda does. Seimei can do the same thing.

[he is a little jealous that Seimei can communicate with Tama-chan better than he can, but he's incredibly lucky that Tama-chan is good at picking up cues.]
