Sixth Star of Fate ☯

Since it's coming up soon, I've been wondering... Would anyone be interested in getting together to make chocolates for this year's Valentine's Day? I'm not sure how many of you are familiar with the day itself, but where I come from at least, it's traditional for girls to give chocolates or chocolate baked goods to the boys they like. Of course, it's nice to make sweets for your friends and family as well.

Since last year got a little... hectic around this time, I think it would probably be best if we did it on the twelfth. It's a little bit early, but I think as long as we're careful, it should keep long enough for Valentine's Day on the fourteenth.

I will be asking teachers at the Phoenix Free School if we can possibly use the home economics room, meaning this will also be open to Visitors and residents alike. I think it would be good for all types of students to have an opportunity to get together and prepare for the holiday.

Even if you don't have any experience with cooking or aren't confident in your abilities, please consider coming! I'm best with simple things myself, so if it's a matter of making those, I would be happy to help. And if those who have more experience would like to come and help teach others, that would also be appreciated!

I hope so too. Making chocolate is more fun with lots of friends.

[Just going to switch this over to private real quick--]

Do you know what you're planning to make yet, Nano?

I'm just making giri-choco this year.

[eyewillprotect]

It's the same for me... How many do you think you'll be making?

[all_wound_up]

I want to make one for all of my friends.

[So probably a lot.]

[eyewillprotect]

It sounds like you'll have a lot to make, then!

[Not that that's necessarily a bad thing.]

[all_wound_up]

Maybe I should get started now.

[eyewillprotect]

[W-wait...]

There are that many?

[all_wound_up]

Well, I wouldn't want anyone to feel left out.

[Which is to say, Nano's the type to hand out chocolate even to people she's only talked to once.]

[eyewillprotect]

Maybe... a large batch and smaller portions would do?

[all_wound_up]

You're right... that might be easier.

[eyewillprotect]

It doesn't have to be anything big, especially if it's obligation chocolates. Don't push yourself to the limit over them.

[all_wound_up]

That's true. Maybe I could do little chocolate lollipop molds...

[eyewillprotect]

Those would be cute! You could make many of them all at once, too!

[all_wound_up]

Mm! And I can shape them like hearts! I think I saw some molds at the market the other day in the seasonal displays.

[eyewillprotect]

It looks like at least one other person will be bringing molds, but more can't hurt! Not everyone will have their own supplies, so having as much variety as possible would be for the best, I think!

[all_wound_up]

It's better to be overprepared than underprepared.

[eyewillprotect]

Exactly! It's no good if we can't accommodate everyone, after all.

[all_wound_up]

So I guess I'll see you on the twelfth, then!

[eyewillprotect]

Yes, I'll see you then!
