[ and when beau shows up at the cafeteria kitchen, ichiro is there! he is cooking. it looks like he's making some sort of tomato-y rice dish that smells like spices and deliciousness, and when he sees beau, he gives her a sup nod. ]
[ he immediately smacks her hand with the wooden spoon he's using to stir it ]
Next time someone tells you you need to eat, eat something. Dumbass, you're not magic here.
[ but then he will grin, take an actual spoonful, and give her a bite, wheedling his limbs around appropriately to make space for beau since it's still touchy week. you are welcome into his space. ] ... It's paella. It's not quite done, but if you like it, I won't add any more spices to it. Still needs a couple minutes to cook, but you can tide yourself over with those, for now.
[ ichiro does jerk his thumb over his shoulder to a plate, where the riceballs are, though. ]
she grumbles, but does, in fact, take that spoonful. wow, hello, that's delicious?]
Holy shit, you can cook. [she huffs, leaning against him for a second. for a minute she just wars with herself because she's hungry but also she likes hugs, and then she reluctantly dislodges herself and goes to monch on riceballs.]
I'm not magic anywhere, first of all. Second of all, that's fine, and third of all - I gotta tell you about the thing me and Luke are planning because I think you're gonna like it.
[ he is now! you need a mom! really bad!!! congrats on your teenage parent!!!!!
but yeah, he is a very good cook, so. he's grinning a little playfully as she grumbles and disappears off, and then turns a little so his shoulders are more open if she wants to come back and eat and hug at the same time.
while he's giving the pan a little shake to make sure everything's cooking evenly, the last part takes his attention. ichiro glances back over his shoulder at her, making an inquisitive noise. ] I used to work in a couple restaurants, I know my way around a dish or two. What've you guys got in mind?
[can't believe her two parents are ichiro and phoenix
she will come back after she's shoved like four of these things in her mouth. you know how you forget you're hungry for a while but then you eat and you're like holy shit, I need to eat everything? that's her.
she settles against him.]
We're gonna do an anime night on Tuesday. Molly's making posters, me and Caleb are inviting people. I'm gonna tell the Winter dorm tomorrow in the morning but I figured I'd ask if you wanted to help us make snacks and stuff, and I guess like, explain what anime is to people since I barely know it.
[ oh my god his entire face lights up. like just LIGHTS up. kid in a candy store!!!! he is so excited right now. it is probably the happiest he's looked this weekend. ]
Uh - yeah, of course, I'd be happy to help! Have you guys picked out what you're gonna watch, yet? Whose idea was it?
[oh my god what a dork. her expression softens when he lights up - that's what she was hoping for.]
Luke said he'd bring some stuff but I'm sure he wouldn't mind suggestions. [sniff.] It was kind of mine, but Luke said he'd support it, so it's happening because of him.
Or - uh, he went [mocking voice] "whatever! I guess that's fine!"
[ certified gigantic otaku ichiro yamada thinks this is the best idea ever so yeah. he smiles down at the pan that he's shuffling the rice around in, not quite vibrating but clearly very pleased. ]
Yeah, yeah, I know a little bit about his taste, so I'll try and find stuff that everybody can get into, no sweat. It was your idea? Beau, that's awesome. Seems like just the kinda thing we could use after such a shitty weekend.
I'll try and find something you like especially, alright? That's the least I can do - aw, man, I can totally see you being into shonen, for sure. [ you just made his day ]

Sure, whatever that is. Luke said I'd like uh... Legend of Korra? [that's not an anime but he did say it]
no subject
[ the protagonist, anyway!! he laughs, though, reaching over beau to grab a plate from a cabinet. ] Luke's got good taste.
...It sounds really fun. I haven't - I can't remember the last time I got to do something like that, unless it was with my bros.
no subject
That's what Luke said too. [she huffs.] ... No, yeah, I'm - excited. It'll be kind of like the dance. To get people's minds off shit.
