[Hey there, mansion residents! Today there are some... rather curious noises coming from the kitchen, for those inclined to investigate such things (or get themselves some dinner). Low voices, heated arguing, sudden silences -- followed by longer silences, and then more of the arguing. Then a gasp, and a grunt -- it almost, almost sounds like an escalating fight.

Except if you open the door, what you will find is one Kaito Kuroba and Aoko Nakamori -- and while they're probably the most likely ones in the dressing room to be having an escalating fight, that isn't quite what's going on.

On the contrary, Aoko has her back against the counter, Kaito's hand up her shirt, and her hands down the back of his jeans. No clothes are missing, so nothing important is really visible, but it's pretty obvious what's going on, especially given the heated kissing, wandering hands, and not-particularly-subtle groping. There's the beginnings of a lasagna dinner on the counter, but the ingredients have long since been abandoned in favour of the more immediate activities.

Um.

Oops?]

[But... But... But.... AOKO HE HAD FINALLY GOTTEN HIS HANDS ON POTENTIAL COFFEE HOW DARE YOU.

Pouty. Face. Time. Now.]

I wasn't playing with it. I was making coffee.

[Watch him not tell you his name now, missy. Serves you right. Uh huh.

Shut up that is totally logical revenge.]

Oh c'mon, Aoko, a little bit of coffee couldn't hurt him.

[grin]

[THAT'S WHAT YOU GET FOR LYING TO HER]

He shouldn't be having coffee at his age! It'll stunt his growth!

[And fine, she'll just call you Edogawa-kun all day]

They disproved that, neechan.

[He is going to get some coffee. Don't you try to stop him.]

[he rolls his eyes]

I drink coffee. I'm not short.

[to Kaito] You didn't drink it when you were little, either.

[to Maurice] It doesn't matter! It still isn't healthy! [and just how are you going to get it while your feet are dangling, huh? :|]

[Flailing. And pouting. It works sometimes.]

It's not bad for me. People just say that 'cause they can't handle kids bouncing off the walls.

If it gets to that point, we could just tie him to a chair. [dryly]

[Not with Aoko it doesn't]

Too much caffeine is bad for anyone. [hefts him up so that she's holding him properly in the crook of her arm, against her chest] How about some juice instead? [heads for the fridge]

... Hot chocolate?

[Compromise was good. Being held like this by Aoko was... ... let's just go with awkward.]

[a shrug, before he turns around to search the cabinets for the hot chocolate mix]

[oh, why not] Okay! Hot chocolate. [since Kaito's getting the mix, she turns to the kettle to start it boiling]

[And Maurice starts wiggling.]

You can put me down now, neechan...

[aha, hot chocolate mix! He turns around to pass it to Aoko, giving the little kid a good look as he does so. Sorry, buddy, but you can't hide anything from me.]

[takes the mix and looks at Maurice] Oh, sorry. Do you want to sit on the counter?

[And Kaito gets a totally innocent expression in return.]

I'll help make dinner! You and this niichan were making lasagna before you got distracted, right?

This niichan is called Kaito. [not that he really needed to say it, but he'd go along with this guy's act if needed]

[...'Distracted'. Right.]

S-sure, if you want to!

[Deposits Maurice on the counter next to the unfinished meal]

Do you know how to make lasagna, Edogawa-kun?

You just stack things up, right?

[leaning over the counter near the lasagna now, watching them both]

Yup! Sauce and noodles and cheese, but you have to get them even, and don't forget to wash your hands first.

[since kami knows her Kaito always forgets that]

You and Kaito-niichan need to wash your hands again too.

[glancing down at his hands, then back up again, then down again]

... right. [and then, somewhat grumpily, goes wash them]

[o-oh yeah they do need to do that]

R-right.

[well the kettle just sounded off, so while she's waiting for Kaito to finish she'll mix Maurice his hot chocolate]

Do you want marshmallows too, Edogawa-kun?

Yes please!
