006 - And now we present Sokka in an act of desperation

[alwayscomeback]

Who: Sokka and you!
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: Blue Fish
When: 11th

[The feed turns on to Sokka looking exceptionally miserable, the Blue Fish's kitchen as his backdrop. He turns to wave a hand at the empty kitchen, because this is an important part to his point.]

Do you see that, Flooters? Do you know what that is? That is a kitchen devoid of a cook, which is just about the saddest thing in the universe. Even sadder than a turtleduck with one leg. It's that sad.

SO! Does any cook here want to help out the Blue Fish? We have every single upgrade at your disposal if you want to come cook for us! We even have frozen meat and fish, hunted fresh by your handsome captain here.

[He's turning on the puppy eyes. Don't stare too much into them, they'll steal your soul.]

Please. We might die. Pleeeeeaaaaaase feed us.

[Siiiiiigh.]

One of us knows how to cook already. The problem isn't that I can't cook, the problem is that I don't have the time to do so for everyone.

[techknowlogical]

If the others know as well that would be useful then, right?

[They could trade off and all that.]

[stickupherforehead]

Ooooh. So you're not as desperate as you first appear.

[also totally seconding Koushirou there]

[dancingmd]

[She laughs.]

No, no, we just love our food! Any help is greatly appreciated of course, but I didn't want everyone to get the wrong impression that we were literally in danger of dying.

[geonomy]

See, that's the impression we got. [Though the grin on his face indicates that no, he knows that's not true. Blue Fish is just pampered.]

Soooo, how would you feel if we helped you while also letting the others watch and see what we're doing? I've got a good recipe to start with: Sheena's Famous Pineapple Curry!

[dancingmd]

[She claps her hands together excitedly.]

Oh! That sounds delicious! Is it vegetarian?

[geonomy]

Yeah! It's usually made with chicken, but I modified it to have potatoes instead, and it's just as good. I made it for one of my dates with Allen once, and he totally approved of it.

[Sure, Allen would approve of everything that wasn't meat, but he seemed to really like it anyway!]

[dancingmd]

Oh that's good, can make both kinds then!

[Because getting Sokka to eat vegetarian will be a hopeless endeavor.]

And once we really get the garden going on the Iskaulit, I'm more than happy to share some of the crops with you.

[geonomy]

And we'd be more than grateful for that. Do you think we could get some of your coffee and meat as well? We'd really appreciate that. I can show you and the other crew members more recipes too, and I'm sure our cooks would do the same!

[He looks back at the other crew members.] Koushiro? Do you have any dishes you're really good at cooking?

[techknowlogical]

[Wait, what?]

Cooking is not a particular skill of mine.

[He can cook if he absolutely has to--which is mostly what he meant about learning the basics--but he's definitely not good at it. Most of his experience is 'you'll starve to death if you can't manage to make a fish edible' after all.]

[dancingmd]

[Nooo not her precious coffee!]

I'm sure we can work out a fair trade! Thank you again, for offering to help.
