33 Apocalypse Ave, Late Sunday Afternoon

[not_every_mage]

Anders' cooking skills mostly stalled out at grilled cheese and cans of soup, but the holiday season and its influx of guests had him wanting to try something new. (He was going to blame it on Kathy's influence.) He stopped by Turtle & Canary for supplies and then set up a baking station in the kitchen.

First on the list of things to try: cornflake Christmas wreaths. They seemed easy right up to the part where he started trying to shape the melted marshmallows and cereal into wreaths and found out exactly how fast a mage could get marshmallow all over every surface in the kitchen.

[OOC: Open to those there.]

See, the thing about that was Raven was not taking 'hyperactive bestie' into account. "Raven!" Kathy called, bouncing across the kitchen to try to wrap her into a hug. And yes, she was covered in marshmallow sticky from stealing bites and the occasional attempt to help.

"Gyah! Sticky! Sticky Kathy!" Was there something she could shift to that would repel marshmallow? "How much sugar have you had?"

"Enough to think that this is hilarious," Kathy assured her. "And not enough to let you and Dante anywhere near my jello molds."

[tigerundercover]

"That's for the best. Dante's taste in jello is creepy."

"Don't you kinkshame my boyfriend," Kathy said, struggling (and failing) to keep a straight face. "What we get up to upstairs..."

"Is deeply unhygienic," Raven teased. "You guys should be ashamed."

"If I told you once, I told you a thousand times," Kathy said airily. "Don't knock cat toys until you've tried them. And it's not like we give them back to the cats!"

Kathy had no idea what the hell she was talking it, but she wasn't about to let that stop her.

"If you start coughing up hairballs," Raven said. "I may have to disown you."

[spin_kick_snap]

"Hairballs, I think I'll be okay," Kathy confided. "I'm more worried about starting to extol the virtues of the 'nip."

This conversation was not getting any less ridiculous.

[tigerundercover]

"See, then we'd have to send you to rehab. The intervention would be pretty epic, though. . . ."

[spin_kick_snap]

"I can quit the nip anytime I want!"

[tigerundercover]

"We're only here because we love you, Kathy, and we want what's best for you!"

[spin_kick_snap]

"You don't understand me!" Kathy wailed. "No one does! Only the nip!"
