IT FEELS WEIRD TO PLAY THIS BASTARD AGAIN. And he's all depressed because of Tracer's death too...

[malikishtar1223]

[walks into the kitchen. Malik’s been staying at Raikou and Gau’s, much to Gau’s dismay. But good for Gau, Malik hasn’t been his usual self. Ever since Tracer’s unfortunate death, and that red-haired… thing showing up to reap his soul, Malik’s been uncharacteristically quiet and depressed, only saying a few words at a time. He really did love that bastard…]

Hey. [attempts a smile and waves lightly with one hand, hanging off the side of the doorframe with the other]

Awww. Malik! D: *Hugs him*

[geekin_the_pink]

[Raikou's brand of comfort probably isn't exactly normal. He sometimes hits Gau to cheer him up. But thankfully today he's got food on hand. Which in his opinion is a perfectly lovely way to cheer someone up. He looks up, covered in cake-mix and smiling brightly.]

Good morning, Malik-Kun. [He's scraping the mix into a pan--it doesn't look like he mixed it thouroughly enough. Then he holds out the spoon he used to scrape it out.] Want to lick the spoon?

[malikishtar1223]

[Malik says nothing. He merely meanders over to Raikou and takes the spoon from his hand, licking it slowly. The scene would look almost sensual, it weren't for the fact there was no smirk on Malik face, no glint in his eyes.]

You... didn't mix it all the way. [he says the statement simply, with no accusatory undertone.]

[geekin_the_pink]

Mmm? No? Easily fixed I guess. [He'll take the spoon back when Malik's done and mix it the rest of the way with it right in the pan. Gau would scream in absolute horror--Malik just licked that spoon! But Raikou's not bothered. He gives him a glance out of the corner of his eye. He's still smiling--but Raikou tends to smile even when he isn't happy.]

Did you sleep well last night?

[He thought he might have heard someone tossing and turning last night. But then he could be wrong.]

POST BREAKFAST (And we aren't talking the cereal company...)

[justice_by_coma]

[Later, Gau's scrubbing at a particularly stubborn burn streak with an awful lot more pent-in-emotion than usual

[geekin_the_pink]

[Raikou meanwhile is eating breakfast alone at the moment since it seems Malik hasn't come out of the bathroom just yet. He doesn't seem fazed to be eating alone right now. He is indeed cheerfully feeding Niji bites of his breakfast, not at all bothered by the dog slobbering all over his fingers. He actualy wants back in the kitchen to check on the cake which is probably burnt or fallen or both. And likely Gau hasn't found it just yet...]

Good boy, Niji. [Ear scritches.]

[justice_by_coma]

[He keeps smelling smoke. And somehow no matter how long he leaves the window open, there just seems to be more...

He scrubs harder with watering eyes, telling himself it's his imagination, but...

No...he WOULDN'T...

He peeks into the oven,a nd smoke billows out.

Gau gives a bloodcurdling yell.

He found the cake, Raikou.]

[geekin_the_pink]

[Oh, Gau's yelling again. Possible danger. He gets up suddenly, startling poor Niji and heads into the kitchen. The scene he finds is a relief, but he gives Gau an unhappy look.]

You ruined the suprise.

Later In The Day--The Party Thread

[lovergirlgrace]

[Well, Raikou did plan a party--or at least send out invites for one and tried to bake a cake, right? So naturally party guests would start to arrive at some point. Unfortunaly Raikou never mentioned this to Gau, did he? So he's probably wondering who's beating cheerfully on the door. When he checks he'll find one grining blonde girl with a box under one arm and holding a bobbing yellow smiley-faced balloon.]

Yoo hoo! G-Man? Rai? You boys home? Is it party time yet? You forgot to give a time on the invites, you know!

CAUGHT EAVESDROPPING?!

[justice_by_coma]

[FLINCH. here someoen was, discreetly trying to listen in on Malik adn Raikou--to make sure Malik was alright, of course! And definitely not to stop him if he decided to hit on Raikou!

He runs to the door as quietly as he can. Blinks, opens it a crack, the chain still over the door. He squints with a narrowed eye.]

Grace-san, what are you doing here?

She's such a wonderful distraction, eh? XD

[lovergirlgrace]

I'm here for your birthday party of course! Now open the door already. Or I'm not giving you your presents.

Re: She's such a wonderful distraction, eh? XD

[justice_by_coma]

[WHUTFACE.]

My...
What?

[HOW DID SHE EVEN KNOW? Staring through the door chain, confused.]
