Hello! If we haven't met, my name is Kyoko Mogami!
I noticed the research center is offering money for new recipes, but it seems like they want it to be some kind of team effort? In any case, I already had some notes written up about some of the dishes I've been able to make satisfactorily since I got here, so if anybody would like to help me with the taste testing and descriptions, I can neaten up those recipes for submission. And of course we would split the compensation!
Oh, but I've also gotten some additions to my replicator since I wrote down those other recipes, so I can do a lot more now! So far I have kombu, bonito flakes, miso, soy sauce, sake, and tofu! So if you want to try something that's not in the notes, just tell me what it is! Nikujaga would be nice, right?
Please contact me if you're interested!

Sasuke perks up at the other request. ]
Bonito... bonito...
[ He spots it and turns the cup over. Into the dashi the flakes go. They absorb the liquid, darken, and sink into the dashi.
And having finished his water, Mr. Tori flies over to rest on Sasuke's shoulder to see what's going on. ]
no subject
The kombu only gets a moment or two to cool before Kyoko gingerly plucks it up again, chopping it finely as she chatters on. ]
Ohh, Mr. Tori~ Are you here to watch over your master? Sorry for making him work~!
no subject
Mr. Tori caws and starts nipping at Sasuke's hair. ]
I think he's excited to eat something different. We're pretty limited where I stay.
no subject
Kyoko giggles lightly at the bird's antics, as she reaches over to switch on the heat on the dashi broth. Just gotta let the bonito steep in there for a bit now! ]
Aah, do you not have any extras on your replicator? It was a long time before I managed to get any of this, for sure. Poor Mr. Tori~
no subject
I do not. Everything I have is still the basics.
[ Replicators on their own is a jump to understand. He knew some people had replicators that could make different things. He hadn't quite made the connection that he could purchase upgrades. Although, that's partly because he's not earning much to begin with.
Sasuke hasn't even bought a new set of clothes. He's still going around in his ninja attire. ]
no subject
[ She hums thoughtfully as she goes back to finish chopping the vegetables, making a note to send him home with some ingredients. ]
Well! At least it comes free with our captivity.
no subject
[ Especially since they have no other option for food... which makes the idea of a vegetable garden all the more attractive.
However, if Sasuke is sent home with some ingredients, he is going to stretch it as much as he can. He'll only accept it for Mr. Tori's sake. He was supposed to be helping out here to feel less indebted to Kyoko. ]
no subject
It's true, we're not much good to them dead, either. At least they understand that much.
[ Despite the grim topic, her voice stays level and casual, though her tone gets more cheerful as she moves over to strain those bonito flakes out of the broth. ]
--There! That should be fine~ So, if I make some furikake and simmered vegetables, then what else....
[ Her eyes flick over to Mr. Tori, and Kyoko lowers her voice, leaning furtively towards Sasuke. ]
...Is it rude to eat egg in front of him?
no subject
[
It's only rude to eat french fries in front of Mr. Tori and not offer him any.Sasuke scratches his crow on the head. While Sasuke leans towards lighter fare when he does eat, Mr. Tori enjoys a wider range of food when he does eat. As such, Mr. Tori playful nips at Sasuke's gloved fingers. ]I think that's a yes. Do you think we could boil a few eggs? I know something really simple to do with them.
[ Even if he just uses pieces of carrot for details the "recipe" is going to be pretty damn cute either way. Rabbit and mouse eggs, anyone? ]
no subject
But oh, is Sasuke actually making a request? She'd been thinking about tamagoyaki, but if he's asking for something, of course she'll go with that. ]
Boiled eggs are good! Do you need anything else for them?
no subject
If you have no plans for those carrots, I could use one. A knife as well.
[ He doesn't know what else is available through the replicator, but he saw the carrot. That will be enough for him to do what he plans. ]
no subject
[ And she's pretty much done chopping things by now, so she'll step aside and gesture politely towards the knife and cutting board. ]
Please.
[ She's pretty curious about this boiled egg and carrot dish, but she'll let Sasuke be mysterious about it if he wants, as she goes to fetch some eggs from the replicator and start them boiling. ]
no subject
Here, Mr. Tori, put these somewhere will you?
[ He hands the armored gloves over to Mr. Tori who takes them in his beak to stash someplace. Sasuke runs his hands under some water before drying them off and starting to cut the carrot into thin strips and round slices to shape further. His knife-work, as expected, practiced and clean. It's clear that he's not exactly cutting a carrot to prepare for a dish... it's almost like he's playing with his food. ]
no subject
But as she shuffles around with portioning out the dashi--some for the soup, a little for the side dishes, and the rest to be saved for later--and setting things up in pots and pans, she can't resist sneaking peeks at what's going on over there on the cutting board. ]
Hohhh, you must cut a lot of vegetables... You're good!
no subject
He doesn't need the whole carrot, so the remaining pieces are sliced and turned into flower shapes. They can go into the soup or one of the side dishes. ]
I often cooked for my master and his lordship, and they can eat a lot alarmingly fast.
[ Sasuke might have employed the use of shadow clones to help him make meals. Mr. Tori comes back from his task of putting away the gloves and pesters Sasuke for bits of the leftover carrot cuttings. ]
no subject
Kyoko lets out an appreciative heeeh as she seasons the vegetables and the furikake--soy sauce, sake, sugar, dashi, and so on--and turns up the heat. ]
They must have really relied on you! But it's fun, isn't it, watching giant feasts disappear after you make them? I know someone like that too.
no subject
[ Or did. Past tense, like Kyoko said. He can't do so here. Sasuke tries to push down those thoughts. They'll do him no good, and he doesn't want every visit of Kyoko to involve him breaking down in some way.
He picks up some scraps of carrot to feed Mr. Tori. Seeing the bird happy is a good way to distract himself. ]
Who's the big eater that you know? Someone here?
no subject
No.... [ Her face softens, her smile just the tiniest bit sorrowful. ] Sensei--I met him back home, but it was a while since I'd seen him even before I ended up here. Ah, I hope he's been eating well!
no subject
[ Sasuke asks mostly to break the awkward moment they have both unintentionally fallen into. He's really going to have to learn how to be more social when others don't immediately fear him or dismiss him due to his profession.
Luckily, Mr. Tori fills in the gaps well enough for now. The crow caws as if to ask the same question. ]
Impatient, aren't you?
no subject
Um... it's been a few minutes, so they should be at least medium boiled by now, right? Sorry, Mr. Tori, we're making you wait!
no subject
[ Sasuke will feed Mr. Tori one of the flower shaped slices. ]
Oh, could you use the rest of these for something? I don't need that much carrot, and while Mr. Tori will happily eat them....
[ He motions to the extra slices. ]
no subject
[ She's just bustling with the other simmering things, first, making sure everything is coming along. ]
You really didn't have to help so much, but thank you!!
no subject
[ He'll scoop up the slices and put them closer to the simmering soup. Mr. Tori only tries to grab one of them on the way. ]
Hey! You're going to ruin your appetite if you keep that up.
[ Sasuke bops Mr. Tori on the beak. ]
no subject
[ What's become of her manners?! She'd let Mr. Tori distract her with his charm, and then gotten all caught up in chatting while she worked. ]
How shameless.... Making a guest work for me....
no subject
[ How is he supposed to make the egg dish if he sits down? ]
I'm not the kind of person people wait on. I'm the one doing the work.

This looks to be close to a good stop
