Home is where the tart is [Open]

Despite not requiring much in the way of food, Zouichi did know how to cook. But with friends and acquaintances from wildly different backgrounds, he figured he could stand to expand his repertoire. So today he was trying out desserts. The inside of one of the Sensoriums had been transformed into a brightly-lit kitchen, its counters covered with baking pans, bowls, fruit, flour, and a multitude of other ingredients.

Zouichi, wearing a dark blue apron, was just taking a batch of chilled dough out of the refrigerator, rolling it carefully out between waxed paper sheets. It was looking pretty good, or so he thought. Nothing had even exploded yet!

From somewhere within the kitchen, the smell of cake wafted up into the air. Caaake.

Tall, pale purple, with horns? That was how Alastirra was described to Jr. when she came up in an interesting conversation with Zouichi. Jr. was drawn here because cake? Much better smell than the stuff Stacy served them. But noticing the tall Draenei when he entered would be a plus. Leaning forward and inclining his head as he approached her to get her attention, he smiled. "Hey!"

Alastirra smiled down at the red-haired young man. "Hello! I don't think we've met, have we?"

She offered Junior a hand. "I am Alastirra, a shaman of the Draenei. It's nice to meet you!"

"Ah, so you are Alastirra!" he said happily. He knew the other Draenei he'd seen around was the council member, but he actually knew that councilwoman's name. He took her hand at the offer almost instantly. "Zouichi's mentioned you a few times, so it's good to finally meet'cha!"

"I am! And you are?" She wanted to make sure--as Alastirra was more than certain that this was Junior, but it was always good to know.

"I think I am flattered! So are you here because he is baking things? I dropped in because of the smells, but I was not sure who I would find!"

Not that she didn't know Z cooked or baked, but it was interesting to watch.

"I'm Jr., Gaignun Kukai Jr." Of course, Jr. wouldn't know if Zouichi talked about him to anybody else - they weren't kind of dating.

"I came here for the same reason as you. I know he talked about making a few things, so I guess he wants to practice on it first. Which is a good idea, we don't have as much of the real stuff to take any chances with."
