Bolin, with the help of Spirits, Moogles, and various other people had finally finished setting up the party. There were tables laden with different kinds of food of course and decorations everywhere. They'd made sure to clear a space for dancing and Perry the Platypus had volunteered to DJ with some equipment borrowed from the moogles for the night. Bolin wished there could be more people so they could have games and stuff like a proper street festival...but for what he had he felt it was pretty good.

Now they just needed people to show up for the fun.

"Bolin and I are going to see who can bring the hottest dish," Lea said, grinning. "You want in on the competition?" Lea was pretty sure Sora wasn't used to the spicy sorts of food he liked. Then again, if Sora was, that could be fun too. What was a competition without competitors?

[dork_of_keys]

Sora could eat spicy food. A little heat was a good thing and generally held to be good for you. But it wasn't really his favorite and his idea of an acceptable amount of heat might be nothing to someone else.

He wasn't particularly surprised that Lea would have a thing for spicy food. And while a competition sounded fun, Sora had to decline. "Nah. Maybe another time."

[eternalfrolicbond]

"Yeah, I can make it sometime at home." Home. Well, it was more 'the house' than home, but it was the closest thing they had at the moment.

[dork_of_keys]

That was actually a little weird to think of, wasn't it? It wasn't technically home, but it was serving that purpose for the moment. They really were in for the long haul.

As for the actual topic of conversation, even if Sora wasn't big on spicy food, he was willing to try just about anything at least once. "That sounds like an idea."

Toxy seemed intrigued by the idea of spicy food in general and was giving Lea a curious look as a result.

[eternalfrolicbond]

Lea crouched down to Toxy. "I could give you a piece if you wanted. No spitting at me if you don't like it, though."

[dork_of_keys]

Toxy was even more intrigued with the offer to taste the food. Yes, he would like to try it and no he wasn't going to spit it at Lea if he didn't like it.

Sora just watched, intrigued. He knew the special treats for the Spirits affected their dispositions, but he wondered if their dispositions might affect how they liked some things. Toxy was in Spitfire mode at the moment, which meant any spitting might include a fireball. And Sora wasn't sure he wanted to know why exactly a Toximander's eyes were heart-shaped in Spitfire mode. Sure it fit with the heart motif they had going on, but...

[eternalfrolicbond]

Lea set a piece down in front of Toxy. He wasn't sure how dream eaters took normal food - or if they could - but he guessed they were about to find out. With everyone around they could probably afford an accident, though; there'd be plenty of people to help even if everything went wrong.

[dork_of_keys]

Oh they could eat normal food. Sometimes Sora would find all of them stating at him like normal pets while he was cooking or eating.

Toxy sniffed the chicken and then ate it. It was most definitely spicy. Kind of burned a little. But not in a bad way. He looked at Lea expectantly.

"I think he likes it."

[eternalfrolicbond]

Lea laughed and put down another piece. "That's it for you, though. I can make it again sometime; we live in the same house."

[dork_of_keys]

Toxy found that answer to be acceptable as he took the second piece of chicken. He'd just have to remember to bug the redhead for it later.

Meanwhile, Sora's intrigued. He thought he knew enough about the Spirits' eating habits, but he was clearly wrong. "Huh, I knew they could eat stuff besides the treats the Nightmares drop, but I never expected any of them to like spicy food."

[eternalfrolicbond]

"Regular animals have likes and dislikes with food, I guess dream eaters are the same way. Dogs definitely have opinions about the food they get." Which made him think of Ammy and the cotton candy. He hadn't thought that one through.

[dork_of_keys]

"I have seen some dogs eat hot peppers like they were nothing and other ones that wouldn't even touch them." Sora hadn't seen the incident with the cotton candy, but it wouldn't have surprised him either.

[eternalfrolicbond]

"I wonder what Pluto likes. Man, I haven't seen him in a while." Lea kind of missed the dog, even if he hadn't quite gotten along with him all the time.

[dork_of_keys]

"Well, when we manage to wake up from this, you can ask the King. Pluto's his dog." Come to think of it, Sora hadn't actually dealt with the hound all that much, even though Pluto was the first being he met after leaving his home world. Being woken up by a dog stamping on his chest hadn't exactly been fun, but dogs could be excitable sometimes. Admittedly, Pluto had licked him first, but he would have just zonked back out without a more forceful waking.

[eternalfrolicbond]

"Yeah, I stopped by to see them before coming over for your test; I don'g know if I mentioned that to you." Of course, he'd stopped by to see if they could help him with these weird gaps in his memory and getting a keyblade, not to see the dog. It'd been good timing anyway.
