[Wanda is in a rather tentlike black cotton dress, belted up with a red velvet sash. Less makeup than usual--though damn it, she's not giving up her scarlet lipstick and nails.]

So...apparently this is what I'll look like in my seventies. I...guess it's okay, but really...why couldn't I have been forty? Fifty even? This is so weird. But mostly uncomfortable and cold. I guess there's a lesson here in taking care of oneself and appreciating one's youth, but right now I'm just waiting out this stupid Flood.

The kitchen will be nice and warm once the oven's going. I got permission to spend a big chunk of time cooking. You guys get bored, I'll be down there running through our flour stores. [Subdued, grumpy sigh]

Anyone got any aspirin? Or brandy?

[Wanda, now in an apron with her hair tied back in a kerchief and her sleeves rolled up, is doggedly working on perfecting piecrusts. From the ingredients piled up on the counter nearby--fruits, nuts, baking chocolate, honey and sugar--she's aiming at filling every one of them that comes out properly. She also has a few cookbooks she's trying to keep flour off of.]

I'd rather be old than have people think you're a baby. [SULLLLK. But then he quickly gets over it.]

Are you going to make COOKIES? Or CAKES? Or [OH WAIT BEST OPTION:] CUPCAKES?

Doc, you're still a frickin' genius. You're just cuter than usual. Don't worry about it, it'll just be another couple of days anyway.

Cupcakes, huh? What kind do you want?

I'm not cute! And no one takes me seriously anymore! You get to have wisdom and and and community respect and people will help you cross ROADS, because you're an old lady.

[Pauuuuuuuse, then an excited shout of:] OREO CUPCAKES!

[Her eyebrows go up and she tries very hard not to smile. Insisting that he's not cute is, of course, even cuter.] I'm not sure how being extra charming is a bad thing. But if I start dissing you, feel free to kick me in the shins.

Oreo cupcakes it is.

[Vanessa is there to grab some food for her room so she doesn't have to come to meals, but she seems to have bad timing with making it there and back while no one is in the kitchen. She stops in the doorway to watch Wanda for a minute, then comes quietly in anyway.]

Have you done that before?

Baking in general and following a recipe? Yeah. But I am gonna make sure we have good pies again, dammit. Besides, baking is comforting.

You eat yet? I was gonna take a break and make some sandwiches.

I meant the pies. I know how if you haven't done it before.

[That's as much of an offer as Vanessa is willing to give, whether she gets some of the end result or not.]

And I haven't, but I can feed myself.

[Have a wee bitty Rinzler in the kitchen on the hunt for his favorite foods: things that don't taste like anything.

He shuffles over to see what Wanda's up to with those pie crusts, though, and peeeeers up at everything with the biggest eyes.]

Bread?

[His voice is still the raspy choked-and-forced thing it usually is when he's, well, older, only in a higher octave. It's just a lot sadder coming from a twelve-year-old.]

If you knew some of the matriarchs I knew, I doubt age would be so much of a thing to dread.

If you need any help, I'm familiar with the kitchen now.

Date: 2011-08-12 05:22 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] scarlet-discord.livejournal.com
I get it. But a matriarch has accomplishments to go with her age.

I'm OK for help, but I could use an unvarnished opinion about the end products.
