[There's a laugh then.]

That's cruel and unusual, Strider. [The bacon comes out of the pan and he's suddenly...doing a lot to make a bacon, cheese and pepper omelette.] But you're on! I will make the most amazing omelette.

[parodeity]

[ would john even mind dave having to give a solid opinion on movies beyond "whatever you want is chill" for two weeks, though ]

Where are all the special flippy moves?

[windeity]

You don't do special flippy moves with bacon, babe. Wait for the eggs, I'm getting there. [He would actually be okay with losing, yes, but now it's a Competition!!]

[parodeity]

Belgium gives you a four out of ten due to the lack of special flippy bacon moves.

[windeity]

I would care more if I were making waffles. [...] Do you want waffles, too? [The omelette goes into the pan and he's working to cook it, waiting for the bottom to solidify enough so he can fold it in half and do a flippy thing.]

[parodeity]

That sounds like a little more than I can eat. [ admittedly. like, more than one meal for a meal. ] You’re cute.

[ statements unrelated ]

[windeity]

Alright, alright. [Omelette flip.] What does that have to do with anything?

[parodeity]

If I had to rank 'em on a numerical valued scale, this would be in the top ten. Bottom ten? Why are the bottom ten the top ten?

[ rank...what...he just took a picture of the flip, though. ]

[windeity]

That’s a great question. [Lmao what are you talking about, Dave.] What’re we ranking, anyway?

[parodeity]

Moments in which I most want to kiss you. [ said casually but he’s looking at the camera and not at john. he’s not as shameless as shouto. ]

[windeity]

...oh. [Not what he was expecting!! But he's working with the omelette before sliding it onto a plate instead.] Want to hear something cool? We can do something about that now.

[parodeity]

What if I like torturing myself instead? And also you. [ there is no adjective for the fleeting grin other than impish. ] Anyway, I’d rather photograph you.

[windeity]

You can photograph me the whole day if you want. [He's handing over the omelette though along with a fork.] Eat first though.

[parodeity]

Wow. [ another laugh, like they're not rarities and he has a full supply, but he lets the camera on its strap fall to his chest and reaches out for the plate. ]

[windeity]

[It’s enchanting and he loves it even as he rushes to make his own eggs while Dave takes his plate. ] Don’t wow me, you know I have a point.

[parodeity]

That wasn't what I was wow-ing. [ or it was, but. he diligently shovels some omelette into his mouth. ]

[windeity]

Yes I absolutely believe that. [The second omelette is made and he turns off the burner to lean against the counter and eat his own eggs.] What do you think? Stick to pancakes or did these stand up to the test?

[parodeity]

I was wowing your pickup lines? [ and how they always work on him rip...dave talks after a few more bites. ] Why not a variety? You’ve yet to make me anything I don’t like, dude. Your Nanna trainee you well.

[windeity]

I know, totally lame right? [Hahaha yeah right.] I’m glad though. Dad and Nanna both passed down pretty much everything I know but it’s been a while since I’ve really cooked for somebody else.

[parodeity]

I didn’t say they were lame. [ they kinda are, but. john just gets a curious look as dave methodically works through the omelette. ] When was the last time you cooked for someone until you started making breakfast sometimes?

[windeity]

Hmm...I used to make breakfast or dinner for Nanna sometimes? Usually on Sundays when we both had the day off. And sometimes I'd make hungover breakfast for my high school friends if I crashed at somebody's house or something...and Vic, sometimes.

[parodeity]

Is hungover breakfast better or worse than this? [ not that he’d let john cook hungover but. ]

[windeity]

It's probably a little better because grease is supposed to help with the hungover feeling. Supposedly. I think that might have just been an excuse but whatever.

[parodeity]

I mean, is the experience better? [ or maybe that is not what he meant. hm. dave decides he has no idea how to explain his question and just skips to another topic, like he occasionally does after deciding he has no idea how to express himself properly rather than, like, trying to figure out how to do it. ] Soooooo. What are we doing after this, Willy Wonka?

[windeity]

I like making breakfast for you way better than a couple of hungover jocks. [He's eating meanwhile and debating the answer.]

After this, we should probably get dressed. I want to take you somewhere but it's a surprise. We'll be inside though.
