Welcome to Gaia! ::

The beast performed a typical belly-laugh as if he said something sidesplitting. The petite Death huffed quite unhappily and struck back proudly, "I didn't last time, Cami said I did well." Still, she was thinking about it, whoever dared to arrange her to kitchen duties ought to be someone not knowing her enough. "They tasted well too."

Shu didn't forget how that hunter gave her a lazy glance, like she wasn't capable to do anything before shoving her a kid's apron. Well, without her intermediate hunter coat, she must look like a trainee, she knew she had that kind of innocence face. Anyway, the apron seemed to be a bit off-size, she was busily adjusting it while stepping into the kitchen. A joyful smile bloomed when her eyes met with another hunter. "Joy! Long time no see~" Then she swiftly remembered she owed her a spar.

The Asian looked around at the stacks of unprepared ingredients, from bags of flour, baskets of veggetables, to loads of different meats. Wait a minute - she scanned the spacious kitchen and didn't see anyone else. "Just the two of us?" She might have raised her voice in surprise.

Huni Pi

It was great to see a cheerful face, Joy was someone who wasn't too close or too far away from her. Shu felt herself in a confortable zone and beamed even brighter with an unspoken reply of yes, that's me. Knowing someone who would skip duties because he wanted to sleep more, Shu wasn't so upset or suprised. "Um, they might show up later." The petite Death wished not bothered the redhead for such a small problem, the hunter seemed she was fully occupied already.

Before starting her work, she tied her long hair into a ponytail so that the hairnet fitted in easier and she clipped her bangs up with some bobbin pins. In fact, the Asian was not used to wearing hairnet, it made her slightly uncomfortable.

When asked, she drawled with a pondering noise. "Nothing much, just daily tasks, external missions and -" she paused and added, "working as a part-time in Beijing branch most of the time." Her pouty face might suggest it wasn't something fun to talk with but she lit up again at Joy. "How about you? Anything big happen when I'm off the island?"

The Beijing branch held a prejudice to the headquarter and it was tiring to work between two places. She didn't have time to check on twitter until recently when things began to smooth out. Shu looked down at the long platform and sought for something like a menu or list. There was nothing, strange. Improvising? She arched an eyebrow in reflex, she was only, can be said, good at making pancakes.

"Er, Joy? Do you see something like today's menu around?" If not, the hunters were going to enjoy a hearty pancake buffet.

Shu partially paid attention as Joy talked, partially focused on her search for instructions. She just paused at the mention of jungle mission briefly and walked towards Joy when she had the list on hand. "I don't know how to cook actually, I can assist you though." It was not a complete lie since she always made a mess despite of being taught by her sisters.

"Anyway, tell me more about the jungle mission." Shu requested, took a basket of potatoes and began to peel them idly.

Shu gave her partner a relieving smile and a cheerful giggle when failure was mentioned. "Roger," the petite Death saluted at Joy and followed her in like a little subordinate.

The little hands working on the dough paused hearing someone was taken by the horsemen. "Oh no, is he/ she alright then?" While asking, she decided to check the associated reports later. Her rank should give her that power. "That's great, Joy!" Her eyes sparkled with admiration, knowing how difficult it was to handle those hostile species. The hands covered in flour clapped enthusiastically, dragging a white powdered mist along with her.

"They're a lot to deal with, I wanted to befriend with a conquest one in the past but she shot arrows at me." Shu's face puffed in dismay as her hands resumed the kneading motion.

The concern in her eyes faded away once Joy guranteed the kidnapped person was alright. The dough being kneaded again and again gradually became smooth enough. Thus Shu rolled it into a ball shape, wrapped it and let it rest inside refridgerator for an hour.

"Rep is awesome! I like him." The petite Death exclaimed, it wasn't hard to read the admiration towards the full hunter despite the drama usually put on twitter. "It's always better to have partners in mission, so that we can take care of each other." Nodding herself, Shu wondered what she could do next.

Joy's comment on the horseman encountered a hesistated reply, "But they look amazing, there might be some friendly one, right?" She wistfully sighed with hope. "Anyway, have you tried this Ravioli soup in restaurant before?" Seeing the italian dumpling on television was much different than making it by herself, to be honest, even with a well-written recipe.

"Do you think we have this Ricotta cheese here?" Shu looked at another huntress, who she believed knowing much more.

Joy's consent made Shu chirpy, it would be complicated to explain the awesomeness of the Pre-Sun Death hunter since impression is sometimes inscrutable. The petite Asian was stubborn on her feeling and nobody can easily shake it. "Hard but actually valuable, as long as own life isn't sevrely threatened." They all learned their lessons, no matter what they were, in a hard way sooner or later. Everyone.

"Nonono, not a person, cheese," she startled and shook her head, "Ri-co-tta CHEESE." She tried to say it in a slow pace and streesed on the food material she mentioned. Shu, in addition, took the list to Joy's eye level, tip-toed and pointed her finger towards the writing. "See here? Ricotta chesse, the ingredients for making the fillings."

"Twitter......" The petite Death mused. She wasn't sure if there were anyone from Italy, but still gave Joy a nod. She used her phone to search, and luckily she found it. Creamy white in appearance, slightly sweet in taste. It's an Italian whey cheese made from sheep, cow, goat, or Italian water buffalo milk whey left over from the production of cheese.

Thinking it shouldn't be difficult to find a substitute, she prepared other ingredients first.
