BBQ time
True to his word, Jordan found the kitchen, but no one cooking. Finding a good selection of the food put out for their arrival, but no grill, he takes a couple grates apart, cleans them up, and sets up a firepit outside with makeshift grills over it. A good fire follows, and its not long before the phantom smells of steak earlier are becoming real ones. The heat doesn't seem to bother him any, beyond being warm enough to hang his shirt over a tree branch. Despite his commentary, he hasn't given anyone a hard time for bikinis or lack thereof.

He feigns offense. "Hey, teenage boy with a genius level IQ. Means I think about sex in six languages while contemplating the permutations of physics or geometry of my pornographic thoughts every three point four minutes, statistically speaking. And if I'm not hitting on girls, it probably means I'm working on plans for a giant robot or death ray." he replies casually.

"Seriously, I'm harmless. But its easier pretending to be a dumb jock this way. How do you like your salmon?"

	"Size isn't everything? Speak for yourself," Emily smirks, casting a gaze to Jordan. But then she turns back. "This is the Relic of Enchantment. It has all kinds of powers." She looks to Jordan again. "Seared is fine," she tells him. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Yes. Purple runs in the family. Mutation, too." Mel may go from lavender to burgundy -- yet again -- at Jordan's discussion. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Outstanding, two for seared it is then." He looks towards Melanie, "So, at the risk of ruining my stellar reputation, let's try a comment with no innuendo. How do you want your steak, ma belle?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Yeah, not that I mind so much... personal bias, go figure. And there's always Alex, though I think he's more the take for a walk type than the dinner and a movie type." He grins at Emily. "Glad I can help." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	They don't happen in Emily's home, either... which is why she's enjoying having it here. "Who's Alex, anyway? I mean, despite being Jordan's Bosley." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Alex had found the person who had cooked the steak he had been tracking, but by the time he found them the steak was gone. He was hungry and dammit he didn't feel like going outside and running something down. It was just too much effort and he liked cooked meals better.

Giving up on someone making their way into the kitchen to make some food, he wandered outside. The smell of cooking food reached him and once again he followed his nose.

In the form of a white tiger, he made his toward where a firepit had been dug.

/Please tell me you made extra/ he said. One of the problems with being unable to take human form was the lack of ability to cook food.

"Ugh, man make fire! Man cook meat!" he replies to Emily. "Come get your fresh, hot meat before I devolve further into the realms of proto-humanity or innuendo. At this rate I'll be Ozzy Osbourne any minute now."

He dishes up the seared fish onto plates, reaching onto the grill without sign of discomfort to do so.
"So if this is Jordan's Angels, and Alex is Bosley, are you Kate Jackson or Lucy Liu? Cause I think Belle there has some Cameron Diaz going. I also think she's just the quiet type."

Alex gets a nod. "Hey Boz. Of course I'm making extra. Let me guess, rare?"

	/I am. Who are you?/ He flopped down on the grass not too far from the fire. /Why am I Bosley and who is Bosley?/ /Well done. It's not often I get to eat a cooked meal. Lack of hands./ (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Marrina made a face. "Liu and Diaz are not Charlie's Angels, she said. "Stupid Hollywood." "I'm Tanya Roberts." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	strongbox 2009-08-19 05:18 am UTC (link)
	"She was awesome in the old school Beastmaster too. Ok, you're Roberts alright." He looks to Alex. "Bosley was one of the characters in Charlie's Angels, no matter which version you go with. And all good... well done I can do." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Mel waves hi again to Alex, and nods a little at Jordan's 'quiet' assessment, and smiles at little at the silly movie-star comparison. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Yeah, but at least the Hollywood version added some color in there, if you know what I mean?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	strongbox 2009-08-19 05:55 am UTC (link)
	"But Hollywood's got nothing on my angels. Color range goes all the way to psychadelic purple, and you three would be way hotter in bikinis." He glances at Marrina and winks. "And your Playboy shoot would completely outdo Tanya Roberts' shoot." Pause. "Not that I'm suggesting anything. ust saying." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Emily holds her tongue before she suggests that Jordan pose for a Playgirl shoot. She's not entirely sure that he wouldn't, right then and there. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
