[judging from the background noise, she's obviously somewhere public. her voice is a little hoarse, but other than that, there's nothing that could give archie any clues.]
Yo. Uh, I'm doing pretty okay. Punched a dinosaur, so that was cool.
[she pauses. why does he care? what does he want out of her?]
[It's hard to know what you'll get when Kidou's cooking. Thanks to the fabled Kingcraft curriculum, he's pretty good at making all kinds of things, including food from around the world. Today, it involves a bunch of different spices, if the bottles he's digging out are any indication. There's seven set down on the counter before he gets out measuring spoons and a small bowl, and starts tapping out amounts onto one.
What could this be? It's not like the simpler stuff they HAD been making. (Of course, it can't be. They have a guest, so he has to make something more impressive. It's imperative.) Kidou didn't really think twice about passing Tara in the living room to get here, nor is he paying attention to what she's been doing since then. This may have been a mistake. This may have been a mistake analogous to having fed her in the first place.]
[she feels out of place here. a little more than out of place; it's a feeling that she hasn't had since first coming to the united states. culture shock.
she hadn't thought that she could stumble into a household here in heropa and feel so acutely that she was in a different place, but here she was. it was no fun sitting quietly and awkwardly in the corner with charley jr., either. which meant she had to put on her friendliest face and find something to do. hopefully without bothering anyone.
jovially, she sticks her head in the kitchen, grinning at--oh, it's kidou! cool.]
[Next, an onion- or rather, Kidou pulls an onion out of the hanging bag of them by the sink, then pauses before pulling out the knife. Ah, Tara... odd question, but he'll grant that it might not be obvious to someone like her. He has no idea what would be obvious or standard to someone like her. Or what 'someone like her' even means anymore. Nonetheless, he keeps his tone calm and steady as ever, as if she'd asked about the weather or some other functionally trivial question. There's not a hint of the mild confusion that's accompanied everything he's done since finding out she walked through their door.]
Starting dinner. Can I get you something?
[Why else would she have poked her head in here? All the water cups and any access to things like tea come from here. Of course, that would probably come with the tacit implication that she's invited to this, but there's no way to not do that, and Kidou wouldn't try even if there was one. It wouldn't do to just. Not invite her. If she is a guest in their home at that hour.
But that will be later. For now, it's a matter of finding out what she wants so he can clear her out of the kitchen and get to work.]
[she walks over, having no idea exactly how unwanted she is in here. or maybe she is aware, and trying very hard to rectify the situation. she peers down at the ingredients and spices, glancing from bottle to bottle and finding that she can pronounce only about half of them. the other half, it takes her a bit to read.]
Uh, wow. That's a lot of. Stuff. And tea, you guys have a lot of tea.
[she glances over at the tea, swallowing a little. seeing it is...nostalgic. it reminds her of raven. someone.]
[That's the least specific kind of answer Kidou could possibly give. It's so generically vague that it could serve as a shutdown... if she knew anything about this. He gets to work on the onion. He doesn't mind people helping him cook if they had agreed on cooking together. He doesn't mind helping out under the same circumstances.
Fun fact: goggles protect against onions. Fun fact: only one person in this kitchen is actually wearing them. But surely she's not close enough to suffer, right..? ]
And yeah, we do. It wouldn't do to run out, after all.
[That's threatening to become a burgeoning collection rather than a stockpile, at this point....]
i mean as long as im right and its YOU you and not another you. but i think its you? i feel like it is. i guess if im wrong this isnt gonna make any sense and ill sound really weird so im sorry about that is it you?
[...Well, hang on. After talking with Jaime, he'd learned that it was possible that this Terra wasn't the one he knew. That just maybe, she'd come from a different 'timeline' or something weird like that.
But... her name was definitely Terra. Jaime had no reason to lie to him about that.]
uh. but. your name IS terra. right? jaime gave me your number. he said so anyway i know its weird but i think i might know you even though you dont know me it cant hurt to talk right?
i dont know u or any beast boy suonds like a weird name tobe honest what r u some kind of superhero lol? im tara. i guess it kinda soudns like terra when u talk 2 ppl but it isnt terra

Date: 2017-03-30 06:05 pm (UTC)[he feels awful for not keeping a better eye on her, but then she can clearly take care of herself, right?]
That's-- that's all. Just lemme know if you're still alive and shit! Don't make me conscript ya into the swimmin' lessons!

Date: 2017-03-31 07:43 am (UTC)Yo. Uh, I'm doing pretty okay. Punched a dinosaur, so that was cool.

Why are you checking up on me?
Re: audio
Date: 2017-03-31 01:18 pm (UTC)[he laughs, sounding delighted that she's even responded.]
Eh, I didn't see ya around when everythin' calmed down and I like knowin' when people I give a shit about ain't dead!
