They know the fate of the world is lying in their hands

[guyexplains.livejournal.com]

Characters: Guy Cecil (guyexplains) and YOU
Location: Everyone's fairy tales
Time: Solstice Event
Summary: The Wonder Chef wanders the land, imparting the joy of cooking to all.
Warnings: Silliness.

There's an object you don't recall being there yesterday. Maybe it's the fact that it's a giant yellow rubber duck sitting in Robin Hood's base in Sherwood, or the fact that it's a green pumpkin in the Princess's chambers. It could be because it's a large bus stop sign leaning on the wall of the evil witch or wizard's labratory. It could be a lucky waving cat on the wicked queen's vanity or a statue of a wooden bear in the fairy godmother's cottage, in any event, the object is new and out of place.

It clearly needs to be investigated.

((OOC: Okay, so this is how I decided to do it. One log for everyone. Post a comment with your fairy tale character interacting with the new mysterious object in their setting, and they'll get to meet Guy the Wonder Chef and be magically taught a recipe. Feel free to have this interaction at any point in your character's fairy tale--right before the happily ever after wedding, or in the middle of the dramatic fight scene or just in some down time, any sort of situation and scenario is fair game!))

((Any format is fine with me, action spam, formal third person, past or present tense. WHATEVER FLOATS YOUR BOAT.))

"You know, I haven't any idea," Jade replies. As this is Jade, 'I don't know' has to be taken with a certain amount of scepticism, but it is, in this case, the truth. Jade has no familiarity with the story and can't predict how it ends. "I have a few suspicions, though. Evil witches are usually killed by the end of the story. His Majesty and I simply need to wait that out."

But it is Dist and some part of Jade, a part he attributes to Nephry and Peony's influence, insists that he can't simply leave Dist to die. Jade insists to this part that not dying is more or less Dist's only ability of any worth, and so he should help the adventurers to make certain the job is done properly. It isn't exactly an argument he enjoy having with himself, and it isn't one he wants to let Guy in on.

Which may be why he threw in a casual mention of the Emperor.

"So His Majesty is in this one too?" It does effectively distract Guy for a moment. And as well as he can read people, Jade's on another level entirely, usually. Even when he is dressed up in something pink and glittery.

"I wish I could give you a hand but I am the mysterious gourmet, the Wonder Chef!" There he went again. "You have done well to find me--though could you not kick me next time?"

He adjusted his hat, as the Wonder Chef urge passed. "Maybe your fairy tale doesn't end that violently?"

"I doubt it. It seems like a very good fairytale." Jade's grin was the grin of a very good witch. You see, as certain witches has theorised, Good is not Nice. Indeed, being good gave one a lot of leeway not to be nice. How could he justify sending Dorothy off when the answer was right on her feet? It wasn't nice, but the Witch had to be stopped, and Dorothy couldn't get home if she didn't appreciate its value.

Oh, and at his age, sometimes things just slipped his mind.

"And I hope you won't surprise any more witches. It isn't very nice to give kind old ladies a shock." Because they might be inclined to shock you right back.

Jade had his own way of looking out for his 'friends.'
