Hi, you've reached the Stud Muffin. Can't answer the phone right now. Why are you even calling? Texting. Wave of the future.

[garou]

Should I have?

[skybluejeep]

Yes. Deep fried donut with cinnamon and sugar. Only long, in stick form, easy to nibble on.

Churros are manna from the gods themselves, Derek!

[garou]

Sounds healthy.

[skybluejeep]

You don't eat healthy things in theme parks, that's kind of the point. Anyway, everybody knows that calories consumed at theme parks don't count.

[garou]

[ He's so skeptical right now. ] I'm pretty sure all calories consumed count.

[skybluejeep]

Seriously. Derek. Are you capable of having fun? Do we need a fun transplant here? Should I call the Mayo Clinic to find you a donor?

[garou]

I have fun. [ Derek huffs. ] I have lots of fun.

[skybluejeep]

Re-reading A Brave New World for the ninth time doesn't count, Derek.

[garou]

I was reading 1984, thanks. [ And now he's scowling, but he still hasn't let Stiles go. ]

[skybluejeep]

Dystopian futures with lots of tragedy and eventual loss of self of the main protagonists.

Gee, Derek. I never would have suspected it.

[garou]

My apologies that it's not Twilight.

[skybluejeep]

If you read Twilight I'd have to stage an intervention. And get you to calm down after reading the portrayal of werewolves in that book.

Seriously. They're weird.

[garou]

Yeah, I know. Laura wanted to see the movie.

[skybluejeep]

...Ah, jeez. No. I mean, we can if you want to. But...ugh. No. I watched them as part of my werewolf crash course and they're terrible. Kristen Stewart just cannot freakin' act.

[garou]

[ Derek sighs and closes his eyes, and he looks... pained? But not in the 'I miss my sister way', in the 'My sister actually made me watch Twilight' way. ] No, she thought whatshisface was cute. The werewolf guy. Taylor Swift? So we went and saw it in theaters. Four times.

[skybluejeep]

...No. Lautner. Taylor Swift is that singer who I refuse to listen to. On principle.

[garou]

[ This is Derek's best 'I don't give a shit' face. ] The point is, I've seen that movie, and, yes, werewolves don't work that way—[ He stops short, sniffing the air. ] Is something burning?

[skybluejeep]

...Shit!

[He runs to the stove, and sure enough, the rice is now a charred mess in the bottom of the pot.]

Crap in a freakin' hat!

[garou]

[ Derek follows after him, peering into the kitchen. ] Everything okay?>

[skybluejeep]

...Wanna go get pad thai again?

[garou]

What happened? [ And Derek enters the kitchen, coming up to stand behind Stiles. ]

[skybluejeep]

Burned the rice. I should just give up and hire a cook.

[garou]

[ Derek frowns a little, peering over Stiles' shoulder into the pan. He ponders for a minute, and then steps around Stiles, grabbing for the pan and a wooden spoon. ] I think we can save it. Do you have any bread?

[skybluejeep]

Bread? Uh. Yeah. Hold on.

[He grabs the small white loaf he's keeping in an actual bread box.]

How is this gonna help?

[garou]

[ Derek turns the burner off, poking at the rice with the spoon before setting it down. He snags a slice of the bread and puts it in the pot, putting the lid back on. ] The bread will absorb the burnt taste, so we can rescue what rice isn't stuck to the pan.
