Food fi yuh rass.

[cantacquityou]

Who: Miles Edgeworth, Geoffrey Chaucer, Phoenix Wright (And Veritas)
What: West Indian-themed dinner party. No ganja involved.
When: Saturday, March 3rd,
Where: Room 502, Miles Edgeworth's room
Rating: Spicy Somewhat safe. Let's hope it stays that way. Semi-casual.
 

Ever since Phoenix's unfortunate fall which incapacitated him for two weeks, Phoenix and Edgeworht had spontaneously developed a weekly (and at times, bi-weekly) pattern of having a themed dinner event, taking place in Edgeworth's room, in which all foods and decor would be based upon, or otherwise influecned by, a selected country or region. Tonight is Caribbean Night.

Edgewrth had only been to Jamaica once and totally not because he has a Jamaican mun and even then, was only there for a day. He enlisted the help of a few West Indian acquaintances, and wished up a grand number of food items. In order to reflect the multiethnic diversity of the English-speaking Caribbean countries, he requested foods common in the Anglo Caribbean countries such as Jamaica, Trinidad and Tobago, Guyana, St. Lucia, and others.

In due time, the castle's ghosts prepared a feast far surpassing the stomach capacity of three (or four) individuals. Upon a large, sand-sprinkled table littered with seashells, there lay three bowls of curried channa and potatoes, goat and shrimp; jerk chicken; slightly sweet fesitval with delicately spongy breaded insides; oxtail; rice and peas; a medium-sized bowl of piping, yellow dhal puree; three, large roti folded into quarters; ackee and saltfish; there was also a bowl of cut fruit including mangoes, otaheite apple, june plum, and others.

As for the condiments, there were three, small glass bowls with a spicy-sweet tamarind sauce, mango chutney, and guava jam. At the right side of the table, there were the beverages: Sorrel, with potent hints of ginger, Ting, and thick, soursop juice.

AND BECAUSE I DON'T WANT TO TYPE THIS  PARAGRAPH AGAIN DSAFLKJHSDFJKH 
The decor is as follows: Animated beach wallpaper to give the feel of actually being on a beach. Smells of the sea. Music playing in the background, including steel pans, reggae, soca, chutney music. A large, flat-screen television playing carnival scenes with flamboyantly costumed 'limers', sequined, scantily-clad beauties flailing around to soca music and large floats. Damn it.

naked geoffrey.... why....

[takethat]

Y-yeah... well...






[Fidgeting]

I guess we know a little about each other. But there are a lot of blanks, too.

[cantacquityou]

Over a decade of blanks, really.

Everyone needs a little naked Geoff in their life~

[thetrudger]

Hm! Well, let's play a game while we eat then, hm? We can guess things about each other.

I COUNTERACT THAT WITH MOAR SEXY

[cantacquityou]

...I suppose that could be fun. Please, have a seat.

/SEXIEST ONE OF ALL

[takethat]

[Well, that was surprising--Edgeworth actually agreed to a game? Color Phoenix shocked.]



...sure, sounds good to me.

Pfft you lose. Shirt has to be off mofo

[cantacquityou]

...The foods are labeled, in case you have questions. Let's eat, shall we?

/insert joke about their sexxxxiness

[thetrudger]

[Geoff helps himself to whatever is nearby, just winging it.]

All right. I guess that my fiery friend's favorite color is blue. True or not?

[takethat]

[Phoenix, on the other hand, plans to watch and see how Edgeworth eats the food, since he's finding a severe lack of utensils around.]

Huh... oh, yeah. You're definitely right--I love blue. That obvious, huh?

[Grin]

So... uh... Geoff... I'm going to guess that you... like...

[Oh he's having a hard time being creative here]

...I guess that you like good, hearty food. Steak or fried stuff. Am I right?

[thetrudger]

Mm, yes. I do like them. Though, my favorite foods are desserts and pudding and the like.

[He is now doing the exact same thing as Phoenix and spying on Edgeworth.]

Miles. I'm guessing you have a fondness for cats. Yes or no?

[cantacquityou]

Dogs, actually. As a matter of fact, you should meet my big girl once she returns.

[thetrudger]

Ah. Is she here with you?

[He frowns.]

You didn't ask a question, Miles. Ask Phoenix something.

[cantacquityou]

She is outside, currently. She should return shortly.


...




[He looks to Phoenix, studying him for a few seconds...]




...I haven't a clue what to ask you.

[takethat]

[He frowns at that.]

Aw, come on. Isn't there anything you want to know about me? I'm so... mysterious.

[And he wiggles his fingers and says "ooooo," doing his best to make light of this even though the foul mood is still pretty prevalent.]

[cantacquityou]

...You're an idiot. I think I've all my bases covered there.

[thetrudger]

Hey, hey! Be nice. Let's say Miles thinks your perfect evening would be watching a "the television" all night.

[Yeah, he still doesn't know what the heck that is.]

[takethat]

I don't even have... a television!

[That's his polite, subtle correction for you there, Geoff.]

And I don't watch much of it anyway. I'd rather be hanging out with people at night than sitting alone watching TV.

[And by "people," he might mean "Edgeworth," though there's no real indication one way or the other about that.]






I... um, I guess that you like to stargaze, Geoff.

[thetrudger]

Is that so? Well, I am quite glad to hear that a television is not your entire life. It seems to be many modern people's.

'Tis a fine evening, to be in the company of friends. You've been around Miles so long, I bet you two spend quite a lot of time together.

[Ignoring the game rules because. >B(]

[cantacquityou]

I would like to interject on something. Wright, I thought you were a fan of video games. Doesn't that normally require a television?

[takethat]

Sure, I like video games, but that's what the game room is for. Have you been to it, yet?

[He's sure he knows the answer to that, but whatever; and then he grins at Geoff.]

We spent more time together than we expected back around Valentine's Day.

[There. Have some fuel for this fire you're trying to spread.]

[cantacquityou]

[He just sits there, because....lol, Phoenix ADDs over to Geoff before he gets a chance to answer. pfft]

[thetrudger]

Is that so? That sounds like a great deal of fun. You two get along so marvelously well. It is indeed a splendid sight.

i don't have a mean!laughing icon so w/e

[takethat]

[He just bursts into laughter about that; it's definitely hit a nerve, and his response is prickly at best.]

Really? Geoff--come on. We're always up against each other in court back home, and I think we've had enough arguments to float a ship since we got here.

[He's going to get whiplash with the way he's alternating attention between these two, but he looks back to Edgeworth.]

Am I right?

[cantacquityou]

...Hmph.

[thetrudger]

Do you know how many arguments I've gotten in since my arrival?

Even the best of friends argue. But you two have put up with each other despite all your differences, and your relationship has grown stronger because of that.

[takethat]

[Phoenix isn't going to respond to that, because he's still so grumpy about how Edgeworth has been treating him ever since the baseball game. Even though he knows that what Geoff says is true--or he hopes it is, at least--he can't bring himself to comment on it.

Instead, he follows what Edgeworth has been doing, and takes a bite of the roti with his hands.









And then promptly commences the coughing and sputtering.]

....spicy!
