D-COMM NETWORK

[Some one is very busy in the big Hyperion kitchen today. There's a radio playing in the background, a lot of stuff already made and even more started and cooking. It all looks very delicious, and if smells could come through the D-Comm it would be guaranteed people's mouths would be watering.

The one responsible for all of it is at the sink in an apron and casual clothes, back to his D-Comm as he runs water over something and his tail swishing back and forth in time with the music.

His partner climbs up on to the island counter where the finished food is laid out, picking up something with her claws and giving it a sniff before nibbling on it.]

Mmm... what's all this, Rin?

Hm?

[Rin perks up, looking over his shoulder with a proud grin.]

Oh, Watanuki-san wants the bakery to participate in the food festival on Tetha, so he put me in charge of figuring out other food to serve!

[He's obviously pleased with this development. Watanuki was pretty uncertain about him at first, but Rin proved himself through his cooking. It's the first job he's managed to keep longer than a couple of weeks, and getting that kind of responsibility has obviously improved his demeanor.

Ty seems to take notice of this.]

He's giving you a lot of responsibility for being so new. [she smiles] I'm really proud of you.

Heheh... [Rin grins with that, rubbing the back of his neck] Well... he thinks I've got potential. That's good, right?

Of course! I-- ... Rin I think something is burning.

[Sure enough, there's a bit of smoke curling above Rin's head. He looks up at it, then over at the oven off screen.]

Crap--!

[he bolts away, and there's a bit of clanking and noise before the feed shuts off finally.]
