With your baby's breath, breathe symphonies
WHO: Residents of Nonah #005, adopted members of Nonah #005, stray birds, stray cats, stray dogs, visitors to Nonah #005, neighbours of Nonah #005, people passing Nonah #005 on the street . . .
WHERE: Nonah #005
WHEN: Feb. 3
WHAT: Setsubun! Bean throwing!! Family dinner!!!
WARNINGS: Teenagers
[Demons outside!
Good fortune inside!
. . . or maybe just an excuse for not-at-all homesick teenagers to throw sweet-crunchy roasted soybeans around the rooms of the house (presumably to invite good fortune in and not just to make a mess), or at anyone who wants to play the part of a demon and be chased out. There's a few bowls of soybeans and paper oni masks around for those who want to join in on the fun.
Unfortunately, due to the absolutely deplorable state of the local supermarket, there's a decided lack of thick, unsliced sushi rolls. They tried, they really did. But as it turns out, defeat might not be a bad thing: instead of sushi, a large electric skillet and two platters dominate the dinner table. One is stacked high with sliced nappa cabbage, mushrooms, onion and cubes of firm tofu; the other has thin strips of beef, ready for the pan.
The first sizzle of cooking meat might just be enough to call out anyone still lingering away from the fun, but if not, at least two helpful birds will poke heads around doors. After that, it's an every-person-for-themselves battle of can you get that piece of meat just as it's finished cooking? Or will that mushroom be stolen just as the sweet soy sauce broth marinates it to perfection?
That's the fun of sukiyaki though, it's the best of family and celebratory meals. And there's been a lot worth celebrating.
Demons out. Good fortune in.]

[Seems like someone's noticed Komasan sitting outside, Capsule right on his heels as he goes over to greet/sniff his new sleeptime friend. HELLO FELLOW DOG! WHY ARE YOU OUTSIDE? ALL OF THE CRUNCHY CIRCLES ARE INSIDE! THEY LET US EAT THE CRUNCHY CIRCLES WITHOUT A 'BAD DOG'. IT IS A GOOD DAY.
Kaneda's soon to brush Capsule to the side to sit next to him, a plate full of the food in his hands.]
What are you doing out here?
no subject
I'm guarding the house of course, zura.
[Duh.]
Haven't you noticed there weren't any demons, zura?
no subject
[Except for Ikki but hey, some are too stupid to quit.]
Good job.
no subject
I wanna make sure it's a good party, zura. Everyone's been so nice to me ever since I came to the US, it's the least I can do, zura.
[And since he's technically not the guardian, he can stop the moment it's over!]
no subject
Well, it's been good so far. No complaints on my end.
[But he holds out the plate, smiling.]
But there's no rules against snacking, right?
