open!
WHO: Mint Aizawa & OPEN!
WHERE: various places, mostly De Chima
WHEN: all throughout October
WHAT: shopping for groceries, hanging out at the park, bitching about sports stores, & more. ALSO if you want your own starter, shoot me a line @allikateor on plurk and we'll plot stuff
WARNINGS: Mint's utter inability to cook.
one: the sports store, Heropa
[ Since her arrival, Mint had decided to take up ballet lessons. She wasn't going to slack now that she was in a different dimension, after all! That was no excuse for laziness! So, now that she had already signed up for her lessons and Mint was already in Heropa for reasons, why not kill two birds with one stone and buy her ballet shoes and leotard here?
Unfortunately...the closest thing to the public transportation is Johnson's Sporting Goods. Johnson's does not carry anything remotely ballet, something that Mint has found out and something that is annoying the hell out of her. She's got a plain blue leotard so it's not a total bust but the lack of ballet shoes is quite annoying.
So congrats, random person who looks like they know what they're doing. Mint's bugging you. ]
Excuse me. Does this store carry any ballet equipment at all?
two: the grocery store, De Chima
[ She is a strong independent woman who can take care of herself! She is also a strong independent woman who has no idea what some of these foods are. It doesn't help that the problem with American food is that they occasionally do things that Mint just doesn't understand. She knows what sort of rice gets used in onigiri...she just can't find the right kind of rice, or the seaweed, or the umeboshi for the center. And their selection of Kit-Kats is downright abysmal!
So, Mint's got a cart that's mostly produce and cold items. Though there's one item that's just confusing her: the dreaded Jello salad.
The one with fruit in it, she could understand. But carrots? Why on Earth would this one have carrots in it? AND cabbage! When she sees someone else, Mint gestures them over, and conspiratorially whispers, ]
Do people actually eat this?
three: the park, Maurtia Falls
[ Talking to the birds is actually quite nice! Their problems are relatively simple compared to all the imPort nonsense and they're actually quite good conversationalists. Mint's gotten to be grand friends with the birds in the De Chima park, so why not try something new and different? Surely the Maurtia Falls birds would be just as nice!
Spoilers, they are. Though they're a touch more foul-mouthed due to the environment of the city. Of course, being birds, they're probably fowl-mouthed (I am so sorry.)
So yeah. Residents of Maurtia Falls, there's a teenage girl with her hair up in two buns, clothes looking very nice, just chatting away with a disgusting street pigeon who's hanging out on her lap. ]
four: in and around De Chima #3
[ Yeah, something's burning.
She's slowly been getting better at pastries (she worked at a cafe, dammit! Even though she just waitressed, she should be good at this). And she's gotten certain easy to cook foods down-pat. But sometimes? Something goes horribly wrong. This time, said something going horribly wrong is the eggs, which are STRAIGHT UP BURNT and stuck to the bottom of the skillet she was making them in. Thankfully, the windows are open, so the burnt smell doesn't stay in the kitchen too much. Unfortunately, that means all the nearby neighbors get the lovely smell of burnt food and also a little bit of burnt plastic (rip spatula, you served Mint well).
And if you're thankful enough to have a stuffed up nose, it's entirely likely that you'll hear Mint, because she is just downright hollering, ]
PROFESSOR SKEETS! Professor, are you in? A little bit of help, if you don't mind!
five: wildcard!
[ the obligatory wildcard option. c: ]

four;
... Aizawa?
[Something's burning. Is the house burning? Is someone in danger of burning? Is Aizawa about to burn down the house and die in the process?? She drops everything she's holding, from the bag on her shoulder to the mail she got from the postbox, and dashes, skidding into the kitchen with her eyes wide.]
Aizawa?!
no subject
[ When Mint spots Ulvida, she gives her a polite smile...and then remembers she's holding a pan with some eggs burnt to the bottom of it. Thankfully, aside from the melted spatula, that's the only carnage of Mint's attempted cookng. ]
I'm afraid I had a bit of a mishap in the kitchen—nothing to worry about, though!
no subject
[Are those eggs? They smell like eggs. And Mint said she knows egg recipes... but does that mean it isn't eggs, because she can cook eggs? She has no idea. But she sighs, pushing back her earlier alarm, and steps inside.]
What were you doing?
no subject
[ said with a frown and a little flippant 'hmmph!' As for the question, Mint attempts to keep her dignity as long as possible while she answers, ]
I was cooking. Unfortunately, a tiny little mishap happened.
no subject
Let me see that. I want to see if it's fixable.
[She holds out her hands.]
Were you hungry?
no subject
[ However, as Mint hands the pan over to Ulvida, her stomach rumbles in a way that's just 'yeah, she totally was hungry.' ]
no subject
I can make something for you. Did you still want eggs or something else?
no subject
I'm fine with most food—you should pick something you want to cook!
[ and then let her eat it ]
no subject
Ulvida looks from the girl in front of her, to the rest of the kitchen, then to the hallway where she had left her bag. Now that she thinks about it.]
I did get some groceries on the way back. [for Gran's school lunch, but there was more than enough] Do you want some sandwiches?
no subject
[ And something that she could make without setting everything on fire in the process...why didn't Mint realize that before. ]
no subject
[Bread, a couple condiments, some meat cheese and vegetables... that should get them somewhere.]
Is there anything you like?
no subject
[ Said with a small little smiiiiiile. ]
no subject
Well, that's fine. I don't have any on me, for today.
[for today]
no subject
no subject
[She fed them to them anyway. Especially the older ones. They gotta set examples.]
Do you have allergies?
no subject
no subject
[There's a nod, and for a brief moment she disappears from the kitchen to grab her bag. When she comes back, it's with the bread and condiments she purchased at the grocery store, and she gets to work quickly. She already remembers where the kitchen tools and plates are.]
I can show you how to cook more simple things if you'd like, too.
