Shun nodded at that, feeling a little amused with her answer of simply big.
"Don't worry. I will make sure that it's fresh," he said. It wouldn't be...super fresh as in he just butchered the creature himself, but it would be fresh enough. He wasn't exactly a hunter after all. Or a butcher for that matter.
He picked out a nice chunk of meat for the stew and placed it into the basket.
"Hmm.. what sort of vegetables would you like? Hel's recipe calls for carrots, onions, celery, and potatoes but we can add others if you want."

Considering Mitsu's cooking experience that was probably the last thing Shun should have asked her. She had no idea what would be suitable in a soup vegetable wise or other. Not being very fond of things that grew from the ground in general was also a hindering point but she said she would try so try she would!
"Hmmm...." Making her way back toward the produce Mitsu looked over their options. There...were a lot of things. "What about this?" Mitsu picked up a random dark purple looking vegetable. At least she thought it was one. It was labeled eggplant.....did it taste like eggs?

Following Mitsu over towards the produce, Shun picked up a few of the things that he needed, the paused to see what she grabbed.
"..."
An eggplant?
".... How about a different one?" he asked. He was... alright with eggplant. It certainly wouldn't really do too well in stew he figured.

"Oh......okay." Hmm what should she pick? Mitsu began to move through the selections, sniffing here and there hoping to pick up on something interesting. Instead something rather pungent hit her nose making her draw back at first and check along the floor to make sure there wasn't something rotten. When she saw nothing she couldn't help but seek out what it was that smelled. She was just too curious to leave it be and when she found where the scent was originating from she couldn't quite decide what it was she found.
It was rather large, maybe a little smaller than a casketball, with spines all over its surface. The odor was hard to place but it was in the produce section, obviously people ate it. Maybe it tasted better than it smelled. "What about this?" Mitsu asked, carefully lifting one of the strange looking things. The sign in front of them was labeled durian.

Following Mitsu, Shun's expression flattened a little more than usual (if possible) as she picked up a very particular fruit. He didn't need to be able to read the label to know what it was. And it was something that he definitely did not care for.
"No."

Making a face Mitsu set the durian back down. She wasn't doing very well at picking something else to go into the stew. It anything it was obvious if left in Mitsu's hands the stew would have ended up with some rather strange things in it.
"What about...." She looked around again hoping to spot something interesting. Nothing was really catching her eye but she eventually spotted some strange little green peppers. ".....Jalapenos?"

Staring at Mitsu, Shun decided that perhaps this was a bad idea. It seemed she wasn't too familiar with a number of the produces.
"..Not unless you'd like stew to be extra spicy," he stated.
"Maybe we should just stick with the basic vegetables I already have here."
Yes. This was a better idea. Deciding that was enough, he looked over the basket to make sure he had everything, then went on to motion towards the check out.

Ewww spicy no. Mitsu did not want that. She shied away from her find but sighed a little when Shun said they should just stick with what they had. So far she hadn't been much help at all.
"Okay.." She said quietly following him toward the checkout with their basket of goods. It was a quick matter of moving through the line to pay and once done Mitsu took one of the bags looking down at the contents.
"Should we head to the mini pet store?" Mitsu asked quietly. There were people near by so she was speaking softer than normal.

"Sure. You wanted to go after all," Shun nodded as he took the other bag so that Mitsu wouldn't be carrying everything, "It's not too far from here anyway."
And so once they were all set, he made his way towards the petstore that was about a block or so away from the grocery. Pushing the door open, he let her in first.
"Go ahead and grab whatever you need."
In the meantime, he just looked around. Bent Tail and Arkham had all they needed. But perhaps he could grab something for Yin and Yang. Then again, the birds were pretty self sufficient, hunting for themselves and the like.

Nodding Mitsu quietly followed Shun toward the petstore, entering when he opened the door for her. She knew what she needed and grabbed a bag of food but as far as a toy she was going to have to give it some careful consideration.
Milo wasn't much of a chewer and mostly he enjoyed dragging around a stuffed animal of some sort to cuddle with. The only problem was there were a lot of choose from. "Do you think Milo would like a bear?" She picked up one of the nearby bears and pressed the spot over its tummy that had a sticker that said 'I squeak.' It let out a shrill noise which had Mitsu's ears folding back. She wasn't sure she liked the sound of that one.

Shun was looking at a few things as well. The birds didn't really need toys, but perhaps he could get them a sort of treat. Maybe not, but it was something to consider. When he heard Mitsu speaking up, he turned towards her and twitched at the sound of the shrill squeak.
"I think he would... but please don't grab one that makes noise," he requested. He did not want to have to hear it constantly in the case Milo really liked his new toy.
He picked up a sort of toy that you could put treats inside. The minipet would have to work to get their morsel out. Hmmm... Maybe he could get one of these.

Nodding again Mitsu placed the teddy bear back down and began to search for a toy that didn't squeak. It was much harder than one would imagine. If it wasn't a toy meant for obsessive chewing or a frisbee it had a squeaker in it. She couldn't really imagine Milo playing frisbee, he had a hard enough time chasing after the balls Mitsu threw and there really wasn't enough room in the dorm to play. As for the toys meant for chewing she didn't think he would pay them much mind. He didn't really chew on stuff.
With a bit more searching Mitsu finally came up with a toy that didn't have a squeaker. It was an odd little plushie, a very round looking bear, kinda like a panda but red with a stripped tail. Turning it around and around she finally held it up to Shun. It was pretty small so it was the perfect size for Milo. "I found another bear."

Picking up the thing, Shun considered it for a few moments, then decided to go ahead and go with it. When he turned back towards Mitsu, she had already picked out what she was going to get for her foxfire.
"I think he'll like that," he nodded. Figuring that they were done with their selections, he went over to the cashier to ring up the toy he had grabbed for his birds. He supposed Arkham could use it too in a way. Bent was too small for the thing to really pose as a challenge though.
With that done, he awaited for his lycan so that they could head back and make the stew.

With the toy bought Mitsu took the bag and followed her reaper back out of the store. Since they had no where else to be they headed back to school and once there Mitsu made a quick detour to her room to pick up Milo. The little foxfire was as happy as ever to see them, bounding around their feet before Mitsu gathered him up into her arms.
"I got you something." Mitsu said pulling out the little plush and setting it next to Milo in her arms. The little foxfire's tail began to wag a mile a minute as he sniffed over the new toy.
"Back to your room?" Mitsu asked, looking up at Shun.

Shun was amused to see Milo's reaction to the new toy, then nodded to Mitsu and headed on back to his place so that they could start cooking. Once back at the room, he considered what his lycan could do that... wouldn't be too hazardous.
Hmm.
"You can start measuring out some things. We'll be needing two cups of water and... two tablespoons of vegetable oil. Don't put them in just yet," he instructed as he set up some things on the desk.
"You can use the nightstand to measure things out if being at the desk is too uncomfortable."
As much as he'd like for her to be right there with him so he could watch her better... he was going to be using knives pretty soon. And he knew it was too soon for her since they really only got started with the whole break the fear thing today.
