Yuki turns to open another cabinet to get a few little bowls, "We can put preserves and condiments in these, I think we should have both." After all, she didn't want someone to not have something they wanted!

[isur2ndprincess]

She giggles lightly at the umbrella, it was a good touch and a nice added flair, "Thank you. I rather like the umbrella, I wouldn't have thought to put one in."

Yuki takes a small spoonful of the parfait, "Oh! It's very good!"

[mrdickery]

"Told you, I'm pretty good at them." The comment is made in jest, something to keep the mood light as he takes a spoon of his own and crunches on granola.

"I'm Yuri, by the way. Yuri Lowell from Fortitude."

[isur2ndprincess]

She laughs, "Well you were right, it seems I will have to trust you for now on," she takes another, somewhat larger, bite of the parfait, "I'm Yuki Yagizawa, from Conquest."

[knightime]

He wouldn't. It would be kind of rude seeing as she was being pretty nice to him.

Oh shit. Food dye. Why is this more exciting then it really is? Maybe because he never actually has seen people dye their food. He knew of it, because he isn't dumb enough to think that it magically came in that color, but still.

He pointed to the blue and green colors. Blue for John. Green for Jade.

Koharu set the tray on the middle of the counter and started arranging bread on one side of the tray, leaving a generous portion for the things to put on the sandwich.

"So you don't like sweets much?"

[mrdickery]

"Oh yeah? How is it over there?" Yuri asked casually, spooning another bit of yogurt and granola into his mouth as he busied himself with the task of gathering up just the right amount into his utensil. All so that Yuki wouldn't notice the small flash of seriousness in his eyes.

Fortitude, for all that it was quiet and pretty pleasant, made him feel uneasy. Probably because the entire city made him feel that way, but even Fortitude's niceties couldn't banish that feeling entirely. There was too much about this city that was... wrong. Like the island itself was trying to hide things from them.

[isur2ndprincess]

Yuki nods and hands him the blue and the green, keeping the yellow and the red for herself. It worked out perfectly considering those are the colors she wanted, yellow for Koharu and red for Sora. Matching their hair color may be a little lame, but she associates them with those colors.

She splits the icing into four bowls and hands two to Dave, showing him to drip a few drops of the dye into the white icing, mix it, and then add more if he wants a darker color.

[isur2ndprincess]

"I like them from time to time and in small qualities, but they're not my favorite things," she looks over at her cupcakes, "I'll have cake on special occasions, sometimes, but I prefer savory foods. How about you?"

[isur2ndprincess]

Yuki puts her spoon down at the question, she had heard that Fortitude was a nicer place with a nicer headmistress (but not prefect, there was a rumor she killed someone already). She sighs, "Conquest is not the best place to be. It is very tense since the Headmistress does not accept losing and Santana is rather rude. The power has gotten to them, I think."

She picks up her spoon again but only to stir the parfait to keep her hands busy, "There is something wrong with this whole place."

[mrdickery]

Damn. He'd heard similar things of course and his own experiences of Santana had led him to believe something similar... but her nastiness had rung hollow. A front, someone who would enact despicable behavior given the chance but only unpleasant to be near otherwise. He had been hoping that he wouldn't have to act but stories like this were going to force his hand eventually.

Still, that wasn't something he had to burden Yuki with. So instead he put out a low sigh and shrugged. "Yeah, but that will change soon."

[isur2ndprincess]

She looks up suddenly, "What do you mean?"

[mrdickery]

"Call it a feeling." He evaded, sliding another spoon of the parfait into his mouth and shrugging. "Don't you have it too?"

[isur2ndprincess]

"I can tell that people are tense," she gives him a hard look, "What's going on?"

[mrdickery]

Well hello sudden steel-like quality he is rather appreciative of. For a minute Yuri considers this as he takes another bite of his parfait, before deciding he can be a little more honest with her. If she wants to know, well... she has the right to that much, at least.

"Think about it: whoever's running this place is constantly grabbing people and bringing them here. How long do you think they can keep this up before we outnumber them?"

[isur2ndprincess]

She leans back in her seat and thinks for a moment, "Don't we already outnumber them? There are only six staff members and many more of us. But they were also brought here against their will. We don't know who is taking us or how many of them there are, so we cannot know when we outnumber them.

[mrdickery]

"Sure, if you think those six are the ones that are the problem. The ones we're looking for are behind them and sooner or later, they'll have to show their faces."

Once a little ruckus got started up, anyway. If there was one thing Yuri could be confident about, it was his ability to find trouble. He just had to find the right moment to do it and only once he had enough allies to do so.

"So how's your baking going?" He asked, pointedly changing the conversation while giving her a knowing look. A topic change in case there were ears listening.

[shootingforpeace]

"Rich sweets, perhaps, but not often. Something simple is best though, don't you think?" Koharu tilted her head, "Most people would have made their favorite food for a party. That's sweet of you to think of all the others."

[isur2ndprincess]

She laughs nervously, "I thought about making my favorite food but I couldn't really think of what that would be... and it wasn't like a missing memory, I'm just not sure what I would consider my favorite food."

[knightime]

Dave busies himself in mixing the food dyes into the icing. There might be a bit of a small smile on his face. Maybe partaking in mundane things that isn't fighting or intense jams isn't so bad. He won't tell people he likes baking though.

He's not supposed to tell people that.
