Heh no problem, they asked for a major antagonist to fight and I delivered. (It's a different feel playing evil guys I don't do it that often if you'll believe that.)

Also were you waiting on me Aiden?  I might have missed a post from you cause the posts come so fast in this RP, I at least know Elf posted last night and was preparing to respond to her.

Raul is going to jump in soon. Any suggestions for who he should meet up with first?

Hmm, so, Elf, what is actually left in the kitchen at this point? Is Kiyoshi going to be able to find the basic ingredients needed to make chicken soup...?

Also, does anyone actually know how to make chicken soup? Beyond "open a tin and heat it on the hob", I mean....

Likely not, Ruu totaled the kitchen. chicken soup is made with stock and chicken boiled together after the chicken is cooked and chopped up in the boiling stock. That's just one way though and very basic

Yeah, I'm guessing Kiyoshi's recipe will be somewhat more complex than that. At very least it's going to have herbs etc. to add taste.

Actually, isn't the soup kind-of redundant now anyway...?

Hmm... looking up recipes, Kiyoshi might have to resort to using what's left in Forest's spice cabinet as flavoring because Forest's supply of fruits and veggies was demolished (including her oranges and lemons... poor Fore, everything that was dear to her so suddenly taken away until now).

But yeah, if I remember right, it's a matter of finding good chicken stock, chopping the chicken into chunks, cooking up some sort of noodles or pasta, and mixing them all together. Kiyoshi could get creative with his spices possibly, like maybe a hint of curry powder to give it a kick for instance, or some ginger maybe, or maybe something more simple like paprika or rosemary? Honestly, I'm not an expert myself, though I could ask my mom later and see if she has any suggestions. Otherwise you could go along the lines of what I suggested and improvise.

Probably thinking of what type of noodles he wants to use would be a good start. Does he want thicker ones or angel hair, or even want to do something unconventional and put in bow ties or the curly cue ones or something similar?

Noodles? I thought it was meant to be soup....

Something like what you're saying does make sense. I will probably need to avoid too much detail, though, because I am pretty sure Kiyoshi could cook significantly better than I can....

Noodles are often a staple ingredient in chicken soup, yeah. It gets mixed in with your chicken, chicken stock, and whatever spices/veggies/etc you throw in there. It's not a requirement per say, but it's a pretty common ingredient.

And yeah, you don't have to describe it in too much detail, this is more to help you with what ingredients he'd be grabbing, any scents your choose to describe, etc.

I have to admit, looking at that sounds like you guys are going into far too much detail about the minutiae of the cooking.

Well, I just need to describe what ingredients he might be getting out. Although I don't think it'll be just yet.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking. Certainly in this country chicken soup doesn't have noodles. Japan is quite possibly different, though....

No, chicken soup, when named as such is just chicken. If it's called chicken noodle soup it has noodles, it's pretty universal, some restaurants are off though
