Fifth Floor Common Room, Late Thursday Morning
Jeremy Darling was on a mission.
This morning, he'd woken up with a craving for waffles. Being a lazy kind of guy, he hadn't wanted to go all the way into town to get some, so he'd (in hindsight, somewhat misguidedly) opted for making some himself. It couldn't be too had, right? The Darlings' cooking staff did it, like, every single morning, so it couldn't exactly be rocket science. That thought in mind, he'd come down to the common room full of enthusiasm and optimism, even tying an apron he'd found around his waist, because wasn't that what you did when you were cooking? He thought he looked quite the breakfast chef.
But reality wasn't looking quite as rosy as what he'd envisioned after waking up. So far, he had managed to both locate and correctly identify a waffle iron. However, now he was really just... looking at it. Because he had absolutely no fricking idea about what exactly you needed for making waffles, other than a waffle iron. None.
His mission really wasn't going all that well, and he was starting to consider going into town after all.

You know. The one he'd pretty much never even seen.
no subject
It was sad that he wasn't even kidding about that.
"Have you figured out if the one here is similar to the one you have at home?"
no subject
He didn't like having to admit he had no idea what to do with it.
no subject
no subject
Also, that.

Don't sound so indignant, Jeremy, no one's accusing you of being quite that appliance illiterate.
He frowned at the waffle iron again. Sitting there on the counter, just taunting him. "I just don't know if it takes... a different kind of batter than the one at home." Well, at least he knew you needed waffle batter.

"I think," he started, leaning over to take a look at the waffle iron, "that there's a plug we need to insert into the wall socket. That should start the power and get it heating, at least."

"Roomie," she said, muffling a yawn as she shuffled into the common room, still in her pajamas
that did not have a bat on them anywhere, thank you. "The waffle iron isn't that scary. Promise."no subject
No, just utterly dumbfounded by it.
no subject
She wandered over to peer at the waffle iron. "Nope. It's teeth-free."

"Well, have you asked it?" Humoring him here, and also -- she felt -- a totally reasonable question in Fandom. "Because I hate to tell you this, but it doesn't make the waffles all by itself."

Still grinning, she lowered her voice to a playful whisper. "It actually takes some work."

"I'm no pro, but I know my way around one," Stephanie confirmed. "Oooh, does this mean I get to teach a crash course in it?"

Especially on those mornings after she'd been up all night running around in a mask. Ahem.
"But it's not that hard. I mean, you just pour the batter in and let the waffle iron work its magic. The batter's the pain-in-the-butt part."

She considered for a moment. "Or I could go get my computer and look up a recipe."
no subject
He blushed because he couldn't help himself. "Sorry, I'm no help."
