[Written]

I have a few curious questions. If you're comfortable sharing your thoughts, I'd like to hear a little about the other kinds of experiments people have experienced here. What was the worst experiment you've been through, what experiment seem the most harmless to you?

The experiment that occur this past week was my first here in Luceti, so I'm rather curious to hear some interesting stories of people's previous experiences with these experimentation.

[...]

And also, how many of you actually like being here?

[A little later on in the day, after Alexei has finish pondering and talking to people through the journal, he decides to go and check on Casey about something. Finding that she wasn't in, he goes back to his room to call her through the journal.]

[Voice-Filtered to Casey - 95% Unhackable]

Captain. I have a request for you.

[After all of this, Alexei can be found lingering near the Welcome Center in the Plaza. He was not in his disguise at this point, as he was there to meet with someone]

[don't break a hip, old man]

It is rather amazing technology. I'm glad we came to investigate it.

[Action]

[fallenambitions]

[He nods] Thank you for coming with me to investigate. We should probably leave this chamber now.

[she nods and follows him out...




when her stomach growls.]

[Action]

[fallenambitions]

...[He heard that]

We must have been in there for a while. Perhaps I can cook us something when we return to the community building.

[Action]

[she's still trying to hide her embarrassment.]

...I'd like that, sir. Will you allow me to help?

[Action]

[fallenambitions]

[At least Alexei has some decency not to rub it in, keeping his comments to himself.]

I would appreciate the assistance, yes. We need to make one stop at the market first.

[Action]

[divinearrow.livejournal.com]

What will we be getting?

[Action]

[fallenambitions]

A few ingredients to make some pork stew. Are you all right with that?

[Action]

[divinearrow.livejournal.com]

[smiles.]

That sounds good to me.

[Action]

[fallenambitions]

[With a nod, he starts making his way out of the Battle Dome. He's sure Casey will follow him out and they'll make their way to the plaza to get some ingredients at the store.

/timeskipping the market and back to the apt?]

[Action]

[divinearrow.livejournal.com]

[as he thought, Casey just follows him along and after the trip to the market they're back at the apartment. she sets down the bag that she helped carry.]

I'll clean up and get changed.

[it's almost like they're father and daughter—/shot.]

[Action]

[fallenambitions]

[LMAO considering their age gap]

All right.

[Alexei is going to be busy looking through the groceries and start prepping in the kitchen]

[Action]

[divinearrow.livejournal.com]

[COULD KIND OF WORK.

la la la, taking a quick shower so she doesn't feel all sweaty and gross (what, she has some girl tendencies) and changing and yeah. coming out feeling nice and refreshed.]

[Action]

[fallenambitions]

[god, why can't Alexei get away from being a "dad" in Luceti, what is this

Alexei's been busy preparing a delicious stew in the kitchen like he said he would while Casey was washing up. See, he's a decent guy! Most of the time.

In fact, everything will be prepped by the time Casey comes out and he'll be busy cooking the pork in a saucepan.]

[would he prefer grandpa?

when she approaches, she notices the finished preparations.]

What would you like me to do?

[Action]

[fallenambitions]

[No, he doesn't want to feel any older, thanks He glances over to her.]

I want you add those vegetables over there. [Saying this as he pours in a sauce mixture into the pan.]

[Action]

[divinearrow.livejournal.com]

[she nods and follows his instructions.]

[Action]

[fallenambitions]

[Once everything was placed into the pan, he puts a lid on top and lowers the heat]

That needs to simmer for a half hour. I'll leave you to keep the time while I go wash up myself.

[Action]

[divinearrow.livejournal.com]

Half an hour. [nods.] Leave it to me. [and she continues to...do whatever she needs to do while keeping an eye on the time.]

[Action]

[fallenambitions]

[He takes a little longer to freshen up. It's his time to ponder on things. They're not very pleasant things to ponder about, events from home, about Casey being here and then those other people who brought his ambitions to an end also being here. All of this happening in only a few weeks apart. How much longer could he keep this up and walk around people until he finally snaps?

Alexei comes out, cleaned and with a change of clothes with the half hour almost being up. He sees Casey was still tending to the food, so he decides to just go and set the table for now]

[Action]

[divinearrow.livejournal.com]

[she glances back toward him when she hears him arrive.] It should be just about ready.

[Action]

[fallenambitions]

[He turns and walks over to her, looking at the saucepan.] It smells like it's almost ready.

[It lets it sit for a minute longer before turning off the stove and pulls off the pan lid. The smell coming from the food was almost divine]

[Action]

[divinearrow.livejournal.com]

[it...really did smell good. she's a bit surprised that the Commandant knew how to cook so well. but she doesn't comment about it and instead busies herself by putting the other side dishes on their own plates and bringing over the larger serving plate for the stew to be held in.]

[Action]

[fallenambitions]

[It's decent enough at least. He pours in the stew into the serving plate when Casey brings it over.]

Try some.

[Action]

[divinearrow.livejournal.com]

[at his encouragement, she takes a spoon and helps herself to a little bit.]

...This is really good! I'm glad it came out so well.
