[Furiosa stills for a moment, and then turns and joins Lily in the kitchen. She was enjoying the return of her appetite after the illness, and the idea of some actual decent food mixtures definitely had its appeal.]

I could do with a break. [She pulls down the dishware and helps herself, then settles at the table and start to dig in. Compared to Wasteland cuisine, that Lily did with the protein packs is simply divine. She glances up at the redhead.] Sure you're not the cook? This is pretty good.

[gifted_witch]

[She smiled that the food was well received, but she waved off the compliment.]<.small> This is a start, I am trying to learn more. It's not as good as if I had the augment but I can learn quite a bit and know a fair bit about cooking anyway. As long as you're not looking for spicy foods. I was never very good at those, but a stew, a Shepard's pie, cakes, biscuits I do pretty well with.

[kill_switch]

Anything is appreciated, really. My world was ... extremely limited in what was available.

[Fine cuisine included two-headed lizards and the odd beetle.]

[gifted_witch]

Well then, with such low expectations you are in luck! [She chuckled and spooned a bit more soup in the bowl for the captain.]

Maybe we can trade with other ships for supplies too, and I can enhance some things with magic so I think we can get by quite nicely really.

[kill_switch]

[She'll gratefully accept the extra spoonful.]

Magic? How do you mean? [She's seen a lot of odd things here, and she's starting to accept that she's never going to see the end of odd things.

[gifted_witch]

Oh, I'm a witch. [She offered with a shrug of her shoulder.] Not a bad one either, top of my class in charms and nearly so in potions.

[kill_switch]

[So many of those words have little actual meaning to Furiosa; heard in passing or in a weak semblance of their actual origin; witch, charms ... class. She nods politely, if a little distantly.]

You're finding a lot of use for it here?

[gifted_witch]

[Lily thought about that a bit and then nodded. I will have more when i get ingredients for potions and things.

[kill_switch]

What sort of ingredients will you need? I'll keep an eye open next stop.

[gifted_witch]

OOh, anything. Spices, cocoa, flour, corn starch or something to thicken. Potatoes or any fresh fruits and vegetables. Meats, cheeses. I'll cook with whatever we can find and try to make it taste good.

[kill_switch]

[Some of those things were mere words or pictures in a book to Furiosa, and there was a part of her that was curious to taste these new things that Lily seemed excited about. What a world.]

I'm going to be spoiled. First reliable rations and now a decent cook.

[gifted_witch]

If that happens, then I've done my job right. [She intended to make herself useful and if this was how she could do it, she had no problem with that at all.]

[kill_switch]

[Furiosa chuckles and pats her shoulder with her right hand.] Glad to have you aboard, Lily.

[gifted_witch]

Glad to be here, Captain. [Lily smiled and went back to work putting the kitching to right.]
