The Gig [Finished]

[yamikuronue]

Vic's face burns hot red, visible behind and around his fingers.

[accalia]

Tony waits, Vic will say what's on his mind soon enough, in the mean time... how does one cook sausages again? do you boil them, or is this one of the things you use a pan for?

[yamikuronue]

"I'm sorry," he chokes out.

[accalia]

There we go.... Tony thinks. "And what do you have to be sorry for?" He asks levelly. there's no obvious motive behind the question, no displeasure, no condescension, nothing but a pure inquiry for information.

[yamikuronue]

"Earlier. I shouldn't have done that. It won't happen again."

[accalia]

"It happened, should it have or shouldn't it have aside it happened." Tony sounds unconcerned, but he is betrayed by a blush rising on his cheeks as well "As to it happening again, well... that's for the future to worry about."

[yamikuronue]

I clearly was meant to be a guy, he thinks, but doesn't say. "Yeah."

[accalia]

"Good, that's settled then." And Tony really does consider it settled.

[yamikuronue]

Settled... sure. Great.

[accalia]

Tony's silent for a long moment.... he's just kinda staring at the rangetop. there's a package of sausage on the countertop next to him. "okay, you said you can cook, how the heck do you cook these?" Tony apparently doesn't even know how to cook sausage.... how has he survived this long?!

[yamikuronue]

....sausages are basically like the meat version of potatoes, right? "Boil them," he says, sounding more confident than he feels.

[accalia]

"Right then," and tony disappears up to his waist in a cupboard, the muffled banging and clanging sounds indicate his struggles to free a suitably sized pot to boil the sausages in.

[yamikuronue]

"Need a hand?" he asks after a moment. He's probably got girly muscles under that. Wait. I have girly muscles under this. And he's been working out. Still..

[accalia]

With an inartuculate grunt of frustration Tony pops back out of the cupboard dragging... several pots with enough surface corrosion so as to render them inseparable and unfit to cook in, at least until they are scrubbed clean, and possibly patched if the corrosion is bad enough.

[yamikuronue]

Vic stares at the pots for a moment. "Uh... you might need new pots."
