pc ♠ richie
d'you like furries
[ oh you can bet this dude is in the kitchen. he's in his canon outfit, chopping up vegetables to put them in a pot with something that smells diabolically spicy. his tail wags gently behind him.
his ears swivel a bit when he hears footsteps, and he glances over his shoulder. a pause. ]
Hello.

Hello.
[Ah.]
How ya doin'.
[With a long day's preamble and plenty of time to sit and stew in his incredulity, Richie has had the time to eye up the strangest among their number and accept that these figments of imagination are a little less imaginary than he would have liked. More mellow than he'd feared, though some industrious fuck has taken out a testosterone tantrum on the potted plants. Given that most of the fuzzy ones look to be of a wisened age, he's going to pin that on the kids.]
Whipping up some grub? Gotta say, you'd be saving us all a hefty plumbing fee if you can manage something without eight gallons of grease. Wasn't looking forward to a fry-only diet in perpetuity.

[ jiaoqiu has spent about half his day trying to track down who did the destruction so he could grab them by the ear and shake some sense into them, so that's valid.
in any case, this guy doesn't stare directly at his ears or anything so jiaoqiu considers this a win. ]
Oh, certainly. There is a time and place for fried goods, but if that was all you subsisted on, your spirit would slide right out of your body. [ he sounds amused. ] You may not find this dish to your taste. Everybody I've offered some has declined...
[ because it smells really good but also like hell ]

So would the rest of my guts. You'd best hope the soul squeaks out first.
[Richie comes a little closer. The smell has a strong hook to it, reeling him in from the doorway to some respectable feet to the side, where he might peer closer at what's on offer. Hard not to flick another glance to that swishing tail, though. Nor the ears. Transgressions committed quickly and with some small reticence, a dash of guilt. Anyway, what are we looking at?]
What is it? Smells pretty good to me.

[ it's fine, he either doesn't notice or doesn't mind richie looking at his ears and tail. he's not the kind of dude to get mad about people being curious, at least.
in any case - he's looking at a stew of some kind! kind of like budae jigae, a little, only it's got sausage instead of spam. it's really spicy! but it does smell good, and it looks like it's about finished cooking. jiaoqiu glances up at richie with his usual smile. ]
Hot pot. You're welcome to a bowl. It's made to boost your vitality, something we are sorely in need of.
[ haha, we're dead joke ]

[Oooh. Being as he's in Los Angeles he's probably hit up a Korean spot once or twice. Even if he didn't, the scoville scale is quite evidently in play.]
Aren't we ever. Think I'll pop out of my grave if I finish the bowl?
Thanks, bud. [take bowl] To whom do I owe the pleasure?

It's a possibility! You'll never know unless you try.
[ hehe. but his ears flick happily when richie takes the bowl, and he settles against the counter so he can eat some of his own. ]
My name is Jiaoqiu. [ squints at him. ] You may call me Jiao, if you'd like.
[ he doesn't have to, but there's been a few people who have had trouble with it, which amuses him. ]
What do I call you?

What about JQ?
[Which is what he's going to default to without interference.]
Name's Rich. Rich Tozier.
[He salutes him with with the spoon, military style.]
I'm going in.
[First slurp............]

That's acceptable.
[ he really doesn't care what people call him as long as it's not like, shithead or something. ]
It's a pleasure, Mister Tozier. [ defaults to polite!! and good luck. enjoy that slurp, it's spicy as hell. jiaoqiu huffs a laugh at the little salute. ]
Well?
[ whatcha think. he's not a bad cook! in fact, the food is probably pretty good, it's just like getting punched with chili flakes. ]

[ good morning, we are at the arcade!
it's fumkin noisy in here but he's doing his best! he seems to be doggedly playing one game in particular. it's a rhythm game, one of those taiko drum ones, and he seems like he's really concentrating, ears perked up and forward. is he perhaps trying to get a high score? maybe. it's not out of the question because he actually is doing pretty good, he's got near perfects on all of the notes. oh, also, he's wearing this.
in any case, he's very clearly not paying attention to anything around him so this is your chance to jumpscare the shit out of him if you'd like. ]

[thats so real honestly.
Meanwhile Richie does about half the brittany broski kombucha meme before swallowing thickly and blowing out a huge breath. He whaps a hand on the counter and suddenly, his voice changes completely.]
Laaawd, have mercy! Ah say, ah say, this here boy tryin' to kill me with the devil's own flames, yessir! From the gates of hell straight to these here tonsils, this baby's gonna burn right up!
[It's less impression than it is wholesale transformation, like he'd shoved a little southern colonel down his throat and let him do the talking.
Richie smacks his lips and wipes the corner of his mouth. Normally now.]
It's delicious. You got a glass of water?

[THIS FIT IS SO CUTE. Richie is in nice clothes but you will never catch me doing a casual fit check for a cishet man.
Anyway since you very clearly have one wish here who am I to deny you. Holding up a mean double handed finger-pistol.]
Freeze! Arcade police!

[ HE'S DOIN HIS BEST and you're so valid
thank you kabby it scares the absolute living shit out of jiaoqiu, which means he one, throws one of the drumsticks in his hand on accident, and two, his tail floofs up to twice its usual size. ]
Reignbow Arbiter -- [ in the cadence of JESUS CHRIST ]

[lore drop he really ate a tiny nouveau riche Alabamian.
Richie takes the water, nodding in thanks.]
I work in radio. Doing voices is part of the bit. What are you? Private chef to the king of masochists?

[Get smoked furry.
Anyway Richie laughs. So hard.]
My god, you'd think you were doing something illegal. Guilty conscience, JQ?
[Rolling up beside him and picking up the drumstick. Here, friends? :pleading_face:]
Sorry. Couldn't resist. Whatchu playing?

Subtlety is for satire. [He smiles.] And thank you. So was the stew, really, but I can see why most guys pass on it. I don't know that I could finish a bowl myself.
You are? Huh. [If he'd said doctor he'd have a hard time buying it, but healer is a bent that just fits right. Ties in with all this mysticism. And...appendages.] Does your practice cover chili damage?

[ he really needs to get his fan so he can smack people!!!
for now, richie hands him the drumstick, and he gently raps it against richie's forehead. not hard, but it is scolding. ]
Aiya, you brat. [ huff huff. he doesn't mean it. ] A rhythm game. They're very good for emptying your thoughts.

[He is thwapped!]
Yeowch!
[Except he's grinning even harder. Brat indeed.]
Oh? Got a couple bees in your bonnet?
Yeowch!

Ah, that old chestnut.
[He flicks at one of the fake drums.]
And what's your verdict, hoss? Possible, or impossible?
