Second Prayer - written / action

[The temperature outside has dropped dramatically, and that means Jonathan Hollom finds it perfect weather to make stew.

The supplies for it are still on the counter, organized but spread out, and a pot is on the stove, simmering. The dish is a bit Irish... but he doubts his housemates will mind. Pieces of lamb have been seasoned and added to vegetables in the pot.

He's nearly done preparing it-- only five or six hours of staying on the stove to finish it off. And so he can keep an eye on it (once the mess from preparing it is cleaned), he has brought his Bible and notes on another not-quite-sermon he's prepared. It's something to occupy him, nothing more.

He has his Journal out as well and, between stirring the stew again and putting away the supplies, he writes a quick message.]


A very generous group of young ladies has allowed me to stay in their home. In return, I am trying to make myself useful, particularly by providing them with meals.

I would be obliged if anyone had recipies they might share.

[It seems only polite to sign his name, and... nearly everyone in those house had insisted on being called by their Christian name.]

Have you any newts on hand?

Pity. Oh, pity. Pity pity pity pity pity. Then you won't be able to cook their absolute favorite.

Captain. Captain Jack Sparrow, Hollom, honestly. You sauté the newt with a bit of lobster and butter and then toss it with fresh pasta.

Now! Make certain you leave the eyes in, Mister Hollom. The slayer enjoys looking her meal in the eye right before she slurps it down! And Jilly likes to pop 'em out aforehand! And Lizzie, well -- less said on that, the better.

[Oh, Hollom. He has been needing a lackey since Mildmay left.]

Aye. The slayer! Or. Sorry. Miss Buffy Summers. I only call her the slayer due to the fact of her loving to eat newts so much.




And slugs.

I find if you wrap them in bacon they go down very nicely, lad. You'll call if you need any other advice on my ladies?

Kisses all around, eh? Not for Cupcake, though. The fur gets all up in your mouth with that one.
