I've-- Oh, wait. Hello Luceti! [Right, she can't just start talking like you do with Voxophones.]

I've recently, this past New Feather cycle, brought two more people into my apartment. Up until now I haven't been... cooking, exactly. [She's been eating whatever she can get ready-made, namely.] Does anyone have any... somewhat simple cooking recipes for two adult men and one slightly smaller girl?

And can someone explain to me how to work the oven...?



[Action]

[Later in the day, Elizabeth ventures out to the grocery store to pick up things for her first cooking adventure! Though it's a trial, even at the store. Elizabeth keeps looking between different things and consulting her journal and looking back at the shelves... and frowning. Because this is all extremely complicated. No wonder this was done for her every day... This would probably take her weeks to figure out.]

Do sandwiches and salads count as recipes? I know how one goes about making cheesestakes thanks to a friend of mine and surely a Caesar salad will be sufficient for a while.

{ Like Elizabeth, Addie here didn't know how to work an oven so she'll stay quiet about that one. Didn't really need to know.

If she was hungry back at the building and wanted something cooked for a quick meal, there was always someone there to cook for her because they liked her/took enough pity on her. Or she always went out to eat. } I think if I recall correctly, perhaps I know also a recipe for a type of soup.

[tearmeanewone]

I would think all of that would count-- if it isn't too hard to make, I'd love to know how to make it!

[And it sounds like most of those things don't require an oven... very much a plus.]

{ One has to bless the human mind. Always looking for the easier way to do things when it comes to everyday tasks. }

I'll write it down now for you. None of them are difficult to make long, I assure you.

{ Recalling much as she could, Addie scribbled down the list of ingredients needed and the instructions on how to cook the recipes she had mentioned. It takes a few minutes but not too terribly long in her opinion. It only took her long as she wanted to be sure about the amount of spices one should add to the soup recipe.

She continues to write instead of resuming the voice option when she did finish writing that all down, deciding on a whim she does need to practice on her non-cursive handwriting these days. }

I hope this will be of help! And I do applaud you for your efforts in wanting to learn for yourself and friends. They're quiet lucky a thoughtful woman as you is around for them.

[tearmeanewone]

Ah, thank you! All of these look great.

Well... they're lucky someone is forcing them to eat something. Otherwise I think the both of them would starve.

( voice. )

[inventings]

You're welcome. Should any recipe come off as peculiar, please do not hesitate in contacting me for help.

Starve? I know you mean that as a hyperbole but dear me. They must be very dedicated to whatever they are focusing on if they do not put more thought for themselves. { Reminds her faintly of Andrew Doe before he passed away. She wonders if one of them is just as cantankerous. }

[tearmeanewone]

Well... Mr. Lutece has his work, and I think Booker is having trouble adjusting. That's mostly why I'm trying to do what I can to take care of him. Someone took care of me, a little. But he probably won't ask for help.

( voice. )

[inventings]

I can perhaps understand why he is having trouble adjusting to here. Fantastical as this play maybe it is rather difficult to accept as reality from time to time. { The wings don't help with that. }

If I may give you some advice in regards of helping your friend Booker? I have an idea but I do not wish to impose the suggestion on you without your consent.

Re: ( voice. )

[tearmeanewone]

Well... [Elizabeth sighs a little, wondering if she should attempt to explain why said advice may not really apply.]

[...No, it would take way too much time, and Booker might see and get upset.]

Why not. What's your opinion on it?

( voice. )

[inventings]

Do little things now and then is what I think one could do for the time being.

{ Sappy advice but safe advice all the same. No need to tell someone else how to do so and so. Not when she doesn't have the whole story. } Like... Hmmm. Simply be there if there are moments of difficulty that are noticeable. Or simple do it when it strikes your fancy.

From my experience that is always a big help for some. Not all but some.
