Sylve blinked back at him. How did she like her noodles done? She had no idea. "I dunno. I've never had spaghetti before. Sally usually makes stuff with vegetables from her garden. Lots and lots of vegetables." She grimaced slightly. That didn't always taste so very well together.

"Never had spaghetti before?" He brightened "That just means I'll have to make sure its done right!" He nodded, moving to the sink and filling it with water before moving to the stove and putting it on a free burner. Turning up the heat, he set the box down beside it for the water to boil. Setting the barray of spices on the counter, malloren now looked into the refrigerator and pulled out three fresh tomatoes to move towards the chopping board. "Careful yuki about cardboard near fire." "I know malloren, its about three inches away." "Alright, just keep an eye on how high the flame is then."

Sylve watched the two of them, smiling slightly at seeing how caring Mall really was of her brother, though it came off as overprotective and hostile. But she didn't like just sitting there doing nothing to help and so she moved closer to ask "Is there anything I can do. Maybe get the dishes out if you will tell me where they are at?"

"Okay." He nodded, indeed watching the flame. "Really? Um...the plates are actually in the cabnet right by your head." "Get three glasses too, I think I saw some sparkling apple cider in the fridge." Malloren called over, getting out a knife as she fell more into a professional mood then her dutiful sister one as she diced the tomatoes.

Sylve grinned happily, eager that she could help. Rushing to the cabinet she pulled out three large plates, carefully laying them on the table before going back for the glasses and finally some silverware. She organized them all nicely around the table, proud of her handiwork. When she was done she came up behind Yuki's arm, looking over his shoulder to watch him as he cooked. "Well that's done. Anything else I can do to help?"

Water boiling, he now opened the bock of noodles and started to break them in half into the pot. He lightly blushed as Sylve peeked over his shoulder. "Mmm...napkins and forks?" Malloren scraped her chopped up tomatoes into the almost-boiling sauce before getting out a wooden spoon and stirring it in. Then...came the spices. Which is what made her sauce better then yuki's, she knew just the right amount without measuring.

"I've already got the forks out" the ghost teen said as her eyes cast about kitchen searching for the napkins. Finally spotting the stack on a nearby counter, she went to retrieve them, laying one out next to each plate before leaving the rest of the stack in the middle of the table. The kitchen was starting to smell heavenly and her nose lead her back over to the stove, this time to Malloren's side. She wanted to watch the girl closely to see what she was adding but didn't want to get in her way, so she stood off to the side, leaning against a counter, taking everything in.
She debated with herself for a bit before softly saying "That smells really good Mall. "

"Oops" He blushed a touch harder, getting out a fork and stirring the cooking noodles. She paused slightly, a thing of Old bay in her hand. Slowly she resumed shaking it in. "...Thanks. I've put alot of experimentaion into the spices."

Sylve nodded politely, her mouth almost watering. Her eyes kept bouncing back and forth between the two pots and their chefs, hoping that it would be done before much longer. Her stomach rumbled in agreement, and a blush flooded her face in embarrassment as she clamped her hands over her stomach, hoping to muffle its sounds of hunger. She felt like a little kid, about to get to taste a brand new flavor of ice cream.
"Is it almost done?" she asked casually. "I mean so I can get the apple cider out and poured. When it's ready that is."

"Not quite." He gave sylve a small sweet smile before stirring out a single noodle. He ate it thoughtfully before nodding. "Not quite." Malloren stirred it smoothly, making sure it didn't burn or stick. Smoothly she took the wooden spoon out, a hand under it. "See if this tastes alright." She murmered to the ghost, not looking at her.

Sylve blinked back her surprise at the female feline's request. Who was she, and what had she done with Malloren? Nevertheless, she stepped forward to taste the sauce on the spoon. As soon as it reached her tongue, her taste buds danced with delight. Finally something good to eat! The spices were balanced just right with the sweetness of the tomatoes. Why it was almost heavenly!
"Mmmm. Oh my goodness Mall, that's marvelous! You are an amazing cook! I bet Yuki's just as good, though I can see where he gets it from."

"Isn't she?" He whole heartedly agreed, hoping that one day he'd be just as good. The male fished out another noodled and this time nodding in satisfaction, pulled out a strainer. "Butter or no?" "I just wanted to make sure you liked it. Pae have different tastes." She snapped, embarrassed from the praise. She hated to cook, dispite how well she was in the kitchen. Malloren put the wooden spoon back into the sauce, glancing at yuki "No butter. Remember, yes for your sauce, no for mine."

Sylve smiled again as the girl turned her back to the ghost. She was quite excited with the food being almost ready, it felt like she was going to a gourmet feast as the vegetable broth and soups she grew up on. No wonder she was a ghost! She lightly laughed as she headed toward the fridge to get the cider out. As she was pouring it into the glasses she continued "Well, it is really good. It's a shame you don't like to cook. You could like open a restaurant and become famous - I bet pae would come from far and wide to eat there. Or a cooking school. You've done so well with Yuki and a lot of pae don't know how to cook either. I don't. I've love to learn though.
If you don't mind me asking, how come you don't like to cook?" she asked. Her interest had suddenly peaked in the girl after seeing a new side of her.

"I see, I see." He poured the noodles into the strainer and began to bounce it lightly, shaking the water free. "Malloren don't like to cook because..." "I just don't like it." She shrugged, turning off the burner. "Some pae love sports, others hate it. Some pae love to cook, I hate it. It all has to do with interests and your tastes."

Sylve nodded. She most certainly didn't like gardening, though Sally was in love with it. 'Course she also wasn't that good at it. More often then not she'd accidentally pull a new budding plant than a weed. "True. But it seems like such a shame to have such an amazing talent go unused. I appreciate you cooking for us though Mall. I really do."
