[ The castle can be a happening place, even on more mundane days. This log is for random interactions over the course of these few months. Because not everyone is into parties, ok.

You are encouraged to start your own threads and tag around, and feel free to threadjack into any on-going threads that aren't specified as 'closed' in the subject lines since people can enter into rooms even in the middle of what's going on. WE ARE BIG ON THREAD-JACKING HERE. You can also specify 'single thread', meaning you want only one response for all participants, rather than multi-thread, where a number of different scenes/threads can be done as replies to the top prompt.]

[ she thought she recognized your voice, thoster (wis 18), so she ducks into the kitchen, attempting to just observe the process for a few minutes (move silently 17) like a creeper. she can't help but smile at his "show", even if he wasn't intending on having an audience.

eventually, during a break in song, she'll clear her throat lightly to make her presence known. ] Has the singing become necessary in order for you to cook a proper meal? [ she's obviously teasing, and she's still got that grin plastered on her face. ] Similar to it's necessity while bathing?

[bluffcheck]

[Thoster glances over his shoulder at the sound of the familiar voice. His face splits into a grin, a booming laugh following.]

Singing comes as natural as air to a man like me! And I've hardly heard complaints for my bathing ballads. Unless this is your way of issuing one?

[socialgraces]

[ she laughs, too, moving closer to where he's making up his food ] I believe this is the first time I've had the pleasure of listening to you sing, actually.

[bluffcheck]

[He chuckles a little.] That so? Well, a certain surly friend of ours doesn't much like my voice. Think that might be why you haven't heard it sooner.

[socialgraces]

Suppose there's nothing wrong with allowing for some peace and quiet near the personal quarters. [ is her diplomatic response ] Although I happen to think you have a wonderful singing voice.

What is it you're making?

[bluffcheck]

Chicken- with plenty of this and that. [So informative... He steps to one side to let her take a look. It's basically whatever vegetables he could find. Pirates aren't that picky.]

I think the singing makes it taste better, personally. [He winks at her.] Have a seat, if you'd like. There's plenty to share.

[socialgraces]

The singing certainly can't hurt. [ she moves to sit at the table, b/c who the hell turns down free food?? ] You know, I've taken up baking as of late. I find it soothes the nerves, and is still quite productive, once you know what you're doing.

[bluffcheck]

Never could bake. Now, my sister? She could do wonders in the kitchen when she has the time.

[socialgraces]

[ she gives him a small, almost sympathetic smile at the mention of his sister ] Is she the one who taught you?

[bluffcheck]

No, that was our mother. She taught us both so that we could help with the little ones while she was out working later into the night. Shay and I traded off to keep it fair. But she was always better at it than me. Had more patience.
