Keep Meg & Amy From Cooking Party

[kitchen_maid]

There are streamers over the door and glitter is flung generously (if randomly) about over countertops. (To be on the safe side, the girls have used edible glitter, like that on the cookies they handed out as invitations.)

There are large signs posted above the stoves and ovens with picture of Meg and Amy and the words "NOT ALLOWED" in large and bright red letters below them.

It can only mean one thing.

There's a party in the kitchen, and someone has got to keep these girls from cooking.

"I'm in Milliways, right? Restaurant at the end of the universe? This is not the Bg Bang Burger Bar?" Asar-Suti said.

This welcome definitely gave him the feeling of accidentally having stepped into the wrong reality.

[kitchen_maid]

"Yes, this is Milliways," says Amy, carefully.

The purple gentleman seems to be a little confused. Amy might be a little worried about him.

"And Bernard Mickey Wrangle is the barman? And he and his wife recently had a baby?" Asar-Suti asked.

[kitchen_maid]

"Yes. Are you feeling all right, sir? Do you need a glass of water?"

[asar-suti.livejournal.com]

"No thanks," Asar-Suti said. "I just need an explanation. Has there been a revolution that I didn't notice because I was upstairs cataloguing books?"

[kitchen_maid]

Amy blinks. "Not that I'm aware of. But I've been in the kitchen, so if it happened out in the bar, I've no idea, to be honest."

"And this is the kitchen? I didn't take a wrong turn and ended up in a private party hall I wasn't previously aware of?" Asar-Suti said, trying another option.

[kitchen_maid]

"Of course it's the kitchen," says Amy, very slowly. "I don't think there is a private party hall, but I suppose we could ask Bernand."

"I never heard of a private party hall, and I've been living here for over a year," Asar-Suti said. "So unless we build one, I suspect there won't be one. So, my most pressing question now is, what happened to the kitchen, and more precisely, to the very charming faun who was head cook the last time I looked, which was around breakfast-time?"

[kitchen_maid]

"I think," says Amy, "that he's over there." She points vaguely.

"And as far as I can tell, nothing has happened to the kitchen. We're just having a party in it. Bernand said it was all right."

[asar-suti.livejournal.com]

"Oh. Thank you," Asar-Suti said. "I'd have been very unhappy if anything had happened to him. Like a revolution or something."

[kitchen_maid]

"As I said, not that I'm aware of."

Amy doesn't really approve of violent revolutions.

"I'm relieved, thanks," Asar-Suti said. "I rather like Gil."

Understatement of the month.

[kitchen_maid]

"Well, I've only met him breifly, but he seems very nice."

She gives him a bright smile.

"I'm sorry, I don't think I caught your name. And would you like an apron?"

It's green, with a pattern of egg beaters.

[asar-suti.livejournal.com]

"I'm Asar-Suti," Asar-Suti said. "And no, thanks, I don't need an apron - I just came to find Gil and talk to him about what we are going to do today."

[kitchen_maid]

"Well, it's lovely to meet you Asar-Suti." She curtseys.

[asar-suti.livejournal.com]

"Thanks," Asar-Suti said. "Oh - I think I see horns over there!" he exclaimed. "That's Gil - I'll go and find him. See you around."

And he went to join Gil.
