From his section of the near empty fridge, Junpei pulled out the lonely onion and started deftly chopping it. It was still early, but...this he was glad for, since the kitchen was empty. His eyes were watering, badly, washing off lines of his make up and literally exposing the clean white silicon of his cheek. Letting it just happen, he scooped up the chopped onions and dropped them into his stew. Nikujaga. Ground beef, snap peas, carrots, potato, onion...stewed for a long amount of time in order to reduce all ingredients to a convenient softness.
Placing the lid back on the pot, he set the heat to low, and all that was left was to wait for it to finish cooking...around an hour or two, maybe three if the sliced carrot or snap peas were still too hard. The amount of stew...good for a week. Stick the pot into the fridge and take out what he needs, and if it isn't finished by the end of the week, freeze the rest to prevent spoiling. Going to the counter next to the fridge, he quickly prepared some rice into the rice cooker, and let that sit to cook as well.
Sitting down at the table in the kitchen, not too far from the stove with his soup simmering, he pulled his make up case onto the table. Time to get to working fixing up his make up. Two uneven pale streaks down his face, make up washed off of his cheeks. Junpei had skills to quick-fix them with just some concealer, foundation, blended into the make up that hadn't been washed off, some addition forms of make up to add details, dimension. Under ten minutes, glancing into the hand mirror at different angles to his right, he was quite happy with his work.
Now...to wait for Nikujaga...
Sinking into the tub of soothingly warm water, the pink skinned girl let out a relaxed sigh, wiggling her toes and feeling the water swish in between and around them. Skin sensitive bubble bath smelling like peaches and cream, handful of soap suds and misty warm water, steam thick in the air...just her usual through bath. Claire had caught an early supper with a certain bestie of hers, eating at that restaurant in town, and now she could have a longer than normal bath. Absent mindedly, the harlequin girl touched a patch of dried, cracking skin on the back of her head...reminding herself to call her doctor mama later, wondering what Ash was doing now.
