What: Slaine's been invited to dinner.
When: After Yamagi's invitation.
Where: Yamagi's place.

_{[To say Slaine's nervous is an understatement. He can't remember the last time he was invited to dinner by someone he actually wanted to have as dinner company. Yamagi's invitation had been one he accepted reluctantly, but admittedly was looking forward to. Dressed in a simple button down dress shirt and dark pants, Slaine cradles the bottle of red wine he bought earlier in the day in one hand to knock with the other. He wasn't sure what to bring, and although he didn't have much...it felt wrong to show up without anything. So, wine. Martians loved wine. Couldn't go wrong with a bottle of red, right?]}

[cariad]

Glad you asked. Remember that box of potatoes you hauled up here all the way from the market?

[he maneuovers deftly around Slaine to retrieve two knives--only one of which is sharp--from one of the ancient drawers.]

Help me peel and carve out these potatoes, and tell me about your day yesterday. We keep missing each other and our shifts hardly overlap.

[And it'll be the easiest way for Slaine to learn about them without having to be in the awkward position of asking questions.]

[galaxycannon]

Hehehe, do you really wanna hear about my last shift? I'll tell you some but leave the fun stuff for later, okaaay?

[ He can be tactless, but he knows the day job details are better shared here than the night ones. ]

But sure, I'll lug them over. Can ya get me a knife in the meantime?

[terrantrash]

_{[Not knowing what else to say, nor not wanting to interrupt the conversation they've started, Slaine keeps quiet. It's a lot easier to focus on what he has on the stove than trying to worm his way into the conversation.]}

[cariad]

You peel, I'll carve. I can steam these with no water involved.

[His knowledge of physics seems to be good for something, if not specifically boiling water. Flipping the sharper knife of the two so its handle faces Shino, Yamagi then turns to the rest of their groceries.]

Slaine, anything in particular you want for your potato stuffing?

[galaxycannon]

Count on me.

[ He grins and takes the knife from Yamagi. He's spent so many hours peeling potatoes in the kitchen for discipline as a kid. He's an expert.

He goes and grabs their trash can and drags it to the dining table. He sets the knife on the tabletop before pulling the box of potatoes to his chair and sitting down, immediately getting to work. ]

[terrantrash]

Oh, no. I'm not picky...cheese is always good though.

_{[No really, cheese is the best. That said, he keeps to himself, watching curiously as the two interact with one another. They must have known each other for a long time, or at least that's the vibe he gets from the two.]}
