For hungry vegetarian - eat more at meals. I don’t count calories, but if you’re eating a plate of vegetables, you can typically eat twice the serving size of if you were having vegetables with a piece of meat.

There are a lot of u healthy vegetarian and vegan things, so be careful - like if you eat JUST french fries, or peanut butter sandwiches, you’re gonna be hungry and eventually probably deficient in nutrients.

With soy and tofu - this is where you want to really read the label. Where I live you can only get organic tofu, which makes it sound fancy and premium, but no, a lot of tofu and soy (especially in the USA is GMO and that’s the type of soy that fucks with your hormones and has been linked to certain breast cancer and other shit because it increases your estrogen levels). So check out the food laws in your country because what is written on the labels is different everywhere, so just be informed and make the choice you want.

Same with the fake meat - you can get some AMAZING fake meat that’s made from rice, mushrooms, eggplants and nuts. You can also get some that they don’t sell in the food aisles because it’s not considered food and all the ingredients are just numbers and science words and nothing recognisable.

I used to be mostly vegan or pescatarian for about 6 years. Add nuts to every meal. Nuts are expensive (at least here they are), but you don’t need to eat many to have a serve of nuts, so they last a while. Brazil nuts and walnuts are the ones I find most filling and they’re really nutrient dense. So if I have a salad for dinner I’ll always have a few nuts and I’m completely full.

If you’re looking for recipes, and depending on what season you’re into - soup is so good for vegan/ veg! Like hell yeah pumpkin soup, vegetable soup, tomato soup 😋 but I could honestly live off soup in winter, it’s one of my fave things to eat lol.

If you’re still eating eggs, frittata and quiche are pretty easy to make, you can put anything in them and like I said earlier, you can have a bigger serving size because you need that big a portion but it’s not like you’re gonna feel stuffed unless you stuff yourself. It’s kind of like how if you’re drinking coke you’ll have one can, but if you’re having water you will drink 8 times as much… you don’t need 8 times as much food, but just that attitude of ‘this is nourishing it’s ok to eat more, because my body literally needs it’ and most people are used to eating a side serve of salad of vegetables, but you need to have a full meal sized serve of it now.

With protein, a lot of it can be found in grains - I love risotto and fried rice style things, or like Nat and others have said, quinoa, beans and lentils and other stuff you like can really thicken up a meal.

We couldn’t afford to eat meat every day when I was a kid, so I grew up sort of vegetarian based anyway. But even when we had things like lasagna we would put a can of lentils and beans into the meat mix because it made the meat go further. If you do meals like a stew, soup - anything with a runny consistency or a sauce/ gravy type thing, you can blend lentils or beans into it and it’ll make the sauce thicker but is like a hidden way of eating them lol.

If you’re someone who wants to count calories and macros to know you’re getting enough of all those nutrients, you can probably use an app like My Fitness pal, or also just google things like “protein in green beans” and it comes up as the result. So you can build a list of the things you like and then make recipes around it to get an idea how much protein, carbs, calories etc are in your food - not to be a “you need to count calories�� but if you’re changing your diet, it’s just good to know what you’re eating you know.

very good advice!

HALEY IT'S BEEN 40 °C ALL WEEK IM AT MY LIMIT 😭 please make sure to drink lots of water and take time to cool down if you have access to some air conditioning!!!

sfjksgdkgs you gave me so many options and i know i should just probably pick one but im bored so imma do them all (it's not like it's already taking me ages to reply to these ;;;;;;). gonna put the interesting ones first and then put the others under a read more!!

VEGASPETE SCENES

already did it here!!!

VEGAS CLOTHES

1. THE WITCHY SHIRT IN EPISODE 9 I WANT TO STEAL IT SO BADLY

2. the white suit in episode 4. i mean im not a slut but who knows. it's also a crime that we didn't get to see him wear it again (i know it would have been impractical to wear it for the final showdown but it would have looked so good splattered with blood)

3. the leather jacket in episode 5. presented without comment 🥵🥵

4. the simple gray outfit in episode 7. i love his fancy shirts but he honestly looks SO GOOD in more casual clothes

5. it was so hard to pick the last one because i love vegas' wardrobe but i guess im going with what i call the slut- I MEAN the snake shirt in episode 11 (because the pattern reminds me of a snake skin?)

VEGAS QUOTES (these are gonna be so disappointing because they're just gonna be lines he says to pete IM SORRY)

1. "i love you, pete." (STILL CANNOT BELIEVE HE ACTUALLY SAID IT. I NEED TO BE SEDATED EVERY TIME I REMEMBER IT.)

2. "From now on, you're no longer my pet. You're the most important person in my life." (NO WORDS JUST 🤧🤧🤧)

3. "If I die today, could it be you who kill me?" (NO WORDS ONCE AGAIN JUST INSANITY)

4. "We make merits together, so next life, we'll get to see each other again." (funny how he initially said that just to mess with pete and now he's actually gonna take pete to make merits together any chance he gets)

5. "No matter how bad I am, if it's for the person I love, I will never hurt their feelings." (okay so he says this to porsche and at that moment i don't believe he meant it, but he definitely means it now with pete. he already hurt pete once, he's never gonna do it again)

PETE QUOTES

1. "When I was little, I used to watch superhero movies with my friends. We fought to be this and that hero... Then I grew up and find out that there's no heroes nor villains in this world." (tells you everything you need to know about pete as a character)

2. "They don't beat us because we suck. They beat us because they, themselves, sucks." (just.. yeah)

3. "I just wanna follow my heart." (PETE FINALLY BEING TRUE TO HIMSELF AND PITTING HIS OWN WANTS AND DESIRES FIRST IS EVERYTHING TO ME)

4. "Would you stop saying that you got nothing left? I'm right here. And don't you turn your back on me. Because... Because I'm hungry." (ONE OF THE MOST ROMANTIC LINES EVER YOU CANNOT CHANGE MY MIND)

5. "Kissing is for people that we like only." (i don't care if it's a little naive, i adore this line)

FOOD

1. pizza. if you had any doubts im italian this is gonna make it pretty obvious..

2. i was thinking about not picking pasta but the heart wants what the heart wants (or, well.. the stomach, in this case). what kind of pasta, you ask? just.. you know. any kind.

3. fried rice. BELOVED SAVIOUR OF PLENTY A MEAL.

4. tiramisu. desserts still count, RIGHT????

5. bread. just like with pasta, all kind of bread is good in my book. just give it to me.

LYRICS (once again, im terrible with these ;;;;)

1. Baby, we'll be fine//All we gotta do is be brave and be kind. - baby we'll be fine, the national

2. Oh, you wouldn't want an angel watching over you//Surprise, surprise, they wouldn't wanna watch//Another un-innocent, elegant fall//Into the un-magnificent lives of adults//Make up something to believe in your heart of hearts//So you have something to wear on your sleeve of sleeves//So you swear, you just saw a feathery woman//Carry a blindfolded man through the trees. - mistaken for stranger, the national

3. Now find a rooftop to sing from//Now find a hallway to dance//You don't need no edge to cling from//Your heart is there, it's in your hands//I know it seems like forever//I know it seems like an age//But one day this will be over//I swear it's not so far away. - various storms and saints, florence + the machine

4. 'Cause you can't jump the track, we're like cars on a cable//And life's like an hourglass glued to the table//No one can find the rewind button, boys//So cradle your head in your hands//And breathe, just breathe. - breathe (2 am), anna nalick

5. And do you look into the mirror to remind yourself you're there?//Or have somebody's goodnight kisses got that covered? - love is a laserquest, arctic monkey

PLACES (i actually haven't traveled a lot in my life so im just.. turning this into a funny thing. sort of ;;;;;)

1. my bed. ngl there's no other place i'd rather be.

2. the north sea. okay this sounds very pretentious, but.. one of my very few and most memorable travels has been to the netherlands back in highschool, and idk why but the sea there left such an impact on me, which is kinda ridiculous since italy has the sea everywhere, but you know. i'd like to go back to it one day, just to see if it still leaves me breathless.

3. parks. so, yeah, i have never traveled much but every time i go to a new city i always take the time to visit at least one of its park.

4. lakes. my region has the three biggest lakes in italy and growing up we never had enough money to go to the beach, so lakes were the closest substitute. still love them.

5. the one ice cream place in my town who still gives you free whipped cream and toppings. the backbone of our economy.

The Freedom of Expression Ep 69 - Long awaited visit to Chinese restaurant

J: At last! At last!

K: Well, its just about 1 year since we started this show, but we talked about doing this quite early on, didn't we?

J: We did, yes.

K: Chinese food!

T: Finally!

K: We're here!

T: Ah, Im so happy about this!

*everyone claps*

K: Joe, tell everyone where we are.

J: Yes, so this is a restaurant called 'Heian'. The closest station is..Kamiōoka Station...Oh,  is it Higashi Totsuka? Well, its a little far from the centre of Yokohama, but as you know, I'm a radio DJ, and this restaurant is run by one of my listeners.

T, K: Ohh.

J: So, thank you so much to them. They are letting us record here today, and we will be able to eat Chinese food to our hearts content!

T: This is great.

J: Yeh, it is.

K: But already, ????

J: You're hungry, right?

K: I'm glad the weather is good today.

J: Yes, the weather is good.

K: I'm thirsty.

J: Ah!

T: Just hearing those words makes me want a drink.

J: Should we get beer?

T: Is that ok?

K: Of course.

T: Ah, great!

J: You can't have Chinese food without beer!

K: But, Joe, didn't you say before that you wouldn't drink?

J: Did I say that?! You must be imagining it.

K: No, you have water.

J: No, no, no, if you have Chinese food, you need..

K: Ok, cola.

J: No, beer! Would a bottle of beer be cheating?

K, T: Yeah

J: Oh, let me cheat, just for today? I tried hard with those reptiles earlier, haha.

K: Oh, the reptiles, yeh. *looks through menu* Where is it? Oh, here.

T: Oh, nice.

K: A bottle?

J: Should we get two bottles?

K: With 3 cups?

J: Yeh. Ah everything on the menu looks so good. I havn't tried any of it yet though. Uh, excuse me! Bottled beer please!

Staff: How many?

T: One for now?

J: Well, two would be ok, though..oh, no maybe one to start?

K: No, get two.

J: Two? Ok, two please!

Staff: How many glasses?

J: Three to start with please! Ah, Im looking forward to this.

T: Im thirsty now.

J: Yeah, me too!

K: ???

J: Yeh, its like you said Kaoru, we're lucky the weather is good. You can really leave the car behind and see more when its like this (*1)

T: Yeh, you can.

J: To be honest though, I'm feeling a bit chilly after seeing all those reptiles, I need a drink just for that reason. I tried hard today. Oh, here we are! *staff brings beer*

J: With these little glasses!

Staff: I'm sorry its not 33(?)

J: Oh, thats ok. This is Kirin *hands out glasses, T pours K's drink, J pours T's drink, K pours J's drink*

J: Oh, can I? I won't get drunk! haha. Ahh, we did it, we brought Chinese food to the show at last. We're in Yokohama, at the restaurant 'Heian'.

*K proposes a toast*

K: .....Uh...we did it, cheers!'

*They drink*

 J: Ahh, I'm glad we came here. Oh, here are the appetizers, thank you. Can we order already?

Staff: Yes.

K: Shall we get gyōza?

J: Yes, gyōza, please!

Staff: How many plates?

J: Well, our staff will eat them too, so 3 plates?

K: Yeh.

Staff: Ok.

J: Kaoru have a look at the menu. Pick what you like.

K: Well, if we order a lot, we might not be able to finish it all, so how about we order half size portions?

J: Oh, yeh.

T: Yeh, just a bit.

J: Thats a good idea. Uh,*to staff* what would you recommend as a typical 'Heian' dish?

T: To go with beer?

J: Yeh, like, if you come here...I mean, the gyōza are gonna be good?

Staff: Yes, gyōza, and liver with chives. The meaty dishes go well with beer.

K: Ok, shall we have both of those?

J: Yes.

Staff: Half size?

K, J: Yes, please.

T: Its great, this, isn't it?

J: Yeh. Next we've got to decide if we should get rice or noodles.

T: Well, we'll start with gyōza, anyway.

J: Yeah....Look, they even have a liver and chives bowl.

K: That looks nice, doesn't it?

J: Yeh, even people who don't drink alcohol can really get their carbs with that. Look, they have set menus too...'Half size fried rice'....Ah, it all looks so delicious. They also have lots of types ramen to finish off with...look here, 'Sanma ramen'..I love that.

T: Ah, yeh, with thick sauce.

J: Yeh, the thick sauce is great...and fried rice. Fried rice is a must, right? But also liver and chives, for sure.

K: Ah! Spicy onion char siu.

J: *calling to staff* Excuse me! Spicy onion char siu please!...right? Ahh, this is good. Its like that song, "If you call me love, I'll answer you with love"...If you call out spicy onion char siu, I'll answer you with spicy onion char siu.

T: Ah, yeh.

J: You also have to have beer, right?...Is this appetizer Zha cai? You eat it with pepper.

*They all eat*

J: Im quite hungry, but I would be happy even with this. Oh, yes, show it in your chopsticks.

*T lifts piece if Zha cai with chopsticks to show the camera*

T: There it is.

J: Like, showing it for 10 seconds, haha. Does Zha cai really need that long?

Cameraman: Ok, I got it.

J: Thanks.

T: Can I eat it now?

J: Of course. Yeh, Im not an expert on food reports either.

T: *To staff* How long has the restaurant been running?

Staff: About 27 years.

J, T: Woaah.

J: This place is treasured by the locals.

T: Filling stomachs for 27 years.

J: Thats it. Thats good chinese food.

T: And they listen to your radio show, Joe?

J: Well, I don't think they listen just to hear me, its just that I'm sometimes on by chance when they put the radio on. He's laughing. He isn't a Joe Yokomizo fan in particular.

T: Hahaha. You could sense it behind his mask?

J: Yeh. Its more likely that he's wondering what we are doing. Havn't we been wanting to do this for a long time, though? This is a proper Chinese restaurant , right? Like, with the radio on...sometimes it might be a live baseball game on tv or something. Its different from a chain restaurant.

K: They usually always have regular customs too.

J: Ah, yeh. Like, someone who always sits in a certain spot? They will tell you if you are in their spot..like, 'Hey, thats my seat'.

T: Yeh, that happens.

J: The locals are really loyal to these places. But just think, this place has been here for 27 years!

T: And its in good condition.

J: Yeh, they refurbished it. It was probably shabbier before that.

T: Haha, ???

J: ??? Ah, that sound!  *sound of oil sizzling* I love that sound of the oil cooking.

*Staff brings out gyōza*

J: These are the gyōza which have been loved for 27 years. Heian's gyōza. This is gonna be good. Kaoru can try them first.

T: Lets see what he does with the sauce, what does he put in it?

J: You're supposed to put salt and pepper, right?

K: And vinegar. But I don't put vinegar in.

T: Neither do I. I just use chilli oil.

Staff: By the way, that chilli oil is home made.

J, K, T: Ohh!

K: So Kaoru uses soy sauce and chilli oil.

T: Watching Kaoru makes me thirsty.

J: Weirdo!

K: Haha *eats*

J: Ok, round one.

K:......*chewing*......Its delicious!

J: Ahh, simple, but straight to the truth.

K: The vegetables are ???. Its good.

J: Ah, I can smell the garlic already. This is gonna be great.

K: Yeh, its pretty harcore.

J: Is it? We went to the tshirt store Hardcore Chocolate earlier, and now we are having hardcore gyōza.

T: I'm gonna try it without any sauce first. *eats* Ah, its delicious. Yeh, the vegetables are really good.

J: *eats* Oh, this is to die for...in particular that 'mariage' of vegetables and garlic.

*question marks appears above T and K's head*

K: I don't get 'mariage'

J: It means marriage, right? They say it a lot on those fancy tv shows, don't they?

K: I don't mean that I don't know the meaning of 'mariage', I just don't know why you are saying it.

J: Ah, I see, you don't understand my thoughts? haha. Lets keep going with 'mariage' today.  I'll go by the name 'Mariage Yokomizo' instead of Joe Yokomizo.

K: We can change you name on the screen captions. 

J: Yeh, change it to 'Mariage Yokomizo' today, haha......Ah, our next dish is here! What is this one?

Staff: Spicy onion char siu.

J: Oh, of course!

T: Kaoru, do you want another drink?

K: *looks at menu*...Maybe a highball?

T: *To staff* One highball please. Oh! Actually two please!

J: I'll have more beer.

T: And another bottle of beer please!

*staff brings another dish out*

J: Oh, that looks so good. Kaoru, give us a your rating on the liver and chives. There's no way that doesn't taste good.

K: Liver and chives is the king of chinese food.

J: I bet there's hardley anyond who's never had a liver and chives set meal.

K: Yeah. *eats* Mm, the liver is really good.

J: Ah, the liver is good? Ok, our turn now. Tasai, go on.

K: Is this half size?

T: Yeh, there's quite a lot.

J: I feel like it would usually be like two or three times more than this for full size. But this goes well with beer too, doesn't it?

*T passes food to J*

T: Have a bit.

J: I feel like I want to try a bit of everything on the menu.

T: Well, if you say that you could ???? the whole menu.

K: I definitely can't eat that much.

T: Right, haha.

*Staff brings out next dish*

J: The stamina dish is here!

K: This makes you wanna eat rice too, right?

J: Definitely. This is the last thing we ordered, isn't it?

K: Yeah. I love pork.

J: You love pork?

K: *eats*..Without question...this is number 1.

T: The last one was the king, and this is number 1? haha.

J: Ahh, I wanna eat this. Everything thats come out has been great.

T: Made by a master

J: Yeah, well he has been loved for 20 odd years.

T: *eats* Ah, delicious!

J: Ok, let me try. Oh, it smells great!

T: This is my favorite.

J: *eats* Delicious! There isn't much to it, just meat and veggies. What is it that makes it great?

T: Simplicity is best.

J: He made it so quickly too.

T: Thats the thing with chinese food. Speed is important.

....

J: We had no idea Covid would happen when we first though about starting 'Freedom' this time, did we?

K: No idea at all. It happened just as we started really.

J, T: Yeah.

K: So we ended up talking about covid quite a lot after we started.

J: Well, those were relevant conversations then....How about this? Both of you tell us which episode is most memorable for you so far.

T: Well, hm, what would it be? The view counts on some of them are pretty interesting though, right? The one with the highest view count is 'that one'.

J: Ah, yeh, the 'incident'.

T: Yeah, and the lowest view count to date is the 'Potato UFO' one. Hahaha!

K: Thats quite recent.

J: That one was your pick!

T: Yeh, haha. It stings just a little bit to think it didnt go down well.

J: Oh, really?

T: Yeah, haha.

J: What was that about again? Oh, wasn't it a drone?

T: Yeah.

J: And there was Kami's story about a guy in the park telling him to quit flying the potato drone.

T: Haha, yeh.

J: That's what did it, right?

T: Haha, I don't know.

J: Its Kami's fault!

T: Haha, well, I'm a bit sorry it didn't do better.

J: That one has the smallest view count?

T: Yeah.

J: Ah, thats good, haha. It must sting a bit if your own idea is the least popular though, musn't it?

T: A little, yeh. ???

J: I'm so glad that achievement goes to Tokyo Sports, and not me.

K: Haha!....Uh, I liked the first live broadcast.

J, T: Ahh.

K: We did ???? (* I can't figure what he's talkIng about here. I did watch this live broadcast, but I've completey forgotten what happened in it*)

T: Oh yeh, we did!

J: When was that? June?

K: Something like that, yeh.

J: How many live broadcasts have we done again? 3?

T: Yeah, 3, right?

J: There was the one at the end of the year.

K: Yeh, that wasn't long ago.

J: And one more before that? So 3 in total.

T: Did we actually do that? I can't even remember.

J: Yeah, I think we did. It was after the end-of-year broadcast that I got home and didn't have my keys. That was pretty tough. We've come up with a few new ideas while we were on location today though, havn't we?

K: Yeah, going to a cafe...and getting Joe a plant.

J: A plant to try and build my character...and there was Tasai holding nothing back when pointing out my faults...that was bad. Isn't that bad??

K: Well, it was also how he said it. He was like...*imitates T pointing at J really directly*

J: Yeh!

T: Haha, sorry.

K: But it was needed, because otherwise you wouldn't realise, right Joe?

J: Yeh, you two are part this now though. You know, I've always wanted to make myself into a more respectable person.

T: You are quite strange, Joe. You look kind of decent on the surface, but you aren't really.

J: Yeh, thats what I'm talking about! You are too direct!

T: Hahaha!

J: So there was the plant idea, and what else?

K: Another food combo plan.

J: Oh, yeah.

K: We might record that soon.

T: I've been trying to come up with ideas for that......Ah, isn't chinese food great?

J: Its really good.

*random chatter*

J: This tastes so good! Heian! I wonder why its called Heian?

.....

K: So, we managed to make it to a chinese restaurant, I think it went quite well.

T: Yeh, eating good food and having a drink together is always a good idea.

J: Everyone, please come and try this place, Heian, in Yokohama...So, finally we have fried rice. I know this is gonna taste good. *staff brings out fried rice* This fried rice is not gonna let us down.

K: It smells good.

J: Yeah, it does.

T: How about getting a final shot showing it off.

K: Like this? *points to fried rice*

Cameraman: Ok, got it.

K: Well, on that note, should I say..thanks for today? Lets do more fun ideas on the show from now on.

T: Yeh, lets go on location at lot more.

K: Yep. Well, thank you very much.

J, T: Thank you.

S&S Holiday of Horror -Part 1-

I dont know why it’s titled that, but this is not a horror comic. This is a humor comic about Reigen and Ekubo cooking for Mob.

By Marita

Mob: Master, Have you decided what to get for lunch?

Reigen: Oh right. You had club activities this morning so you’re probably really hungry by now. Anything you want in particular?

Mob: I want Omurice (Omurice is short for Omlette Rice. It’s fried rice with an omlette on top. Looks like this)

Reigen: I see! Omurice is it? As I expected, you have fine taste befitting of a disciple of mine. I was thinking of Ramen, but now that you mention it, I’d like that too. Lets go.

Mob: Master

Mob: Uh master.... I just wanted to mention that there’s a residual curse on the room from an evils spirit that was here earlier. We wont be able to open the door from the inside. 

Reigen thinks: What the hell?

Reigen: Well, just out of curiosity, when did this start?

Mob: um... you didn't notice when it started? It was around the time I arrived. It’s gotten a lot weaker since then, so I think we’ll be able to leave pretty soon.

Reigen’s stomach growls. 

Reigen: Well, that doesn’t solve our problem right now, so your Omurice will have to wait.

Mob: Okay, I understand. 

Stomach growling noise from the office.

Caption - 20 mins later -

Mob: Shishou said it still wasn’t opening There’s salt from salt splash on the ground.

Reigen: OMURICE OOOOMMMMUUURICEEEE

Mob looks at his secretary placard as Reigen makes a bunch of angry noises in the background.

Mob thinks: He’s not even making sense anymore. 

Reigen falls off the door

As Reigen is laying on the floor, the door opens and Ekubo walks in.

Ekubo: What are you doing? 

Mob: Oh! Ekubo

Mob: You’re using that guy’s body again. Take good care of it.

Ekubo: Oh! Shigeo Ekubo: Okay, but listen to this.... Ekubo starts to close the door

Reigen: !

Reigen: Ah! Ah! Wait! WAIT!! 

Ekubo shuts the door.

Reigen grabs Ekubo’s sleeve in desperation: D....D....Door ahhhhhhhhhh

Reigen tears up

Ekubo: what? 

Reigen: We’re going to starve to death here.

Ekubo: Oh you guys are hungry?

Mob’s stomach growls

Ekubo: Why dont you guys go get some food?

Reigen: We were getting ready to go get Omurice....

Reigen: But...But the door is cursed so we can’t get out. Goddammit Omurice Ahhhhhhhhh Mob thinks: Master... this is embarrassing

Ekubo: Omurice? 

Ekubo wanders off

Mob: Ekubo? Master, Ekubo is.......

Reigen: huh?

Ekubo stares into the fridge at the carton of eggs (Aww... look at him this panel is so cute.) 

Reigen: Eh? What’s he doing? 

Ekubo scoops some rice and washes it. 

Mob: Ekubo what are you doing? 

Ekubo: I’ll make it for you guys.  Im borrowing your apron, Reigen

(Ekubo constantly refers to himself in this hilariously grandiose way. Instead of just “I”  he says something like “Your lordship I”, or “your majesty I” Which is really funny here, becasue he’s like Your Majesty, “I” will cook for you.)

Mob: Whoa you know how to make it? 

Ekubo: It’s what you want right? If the boss is starving, I suppose I can show you a thing or two. (When he says “the boss” he’s referring to Mob, NOT REIGEN. Ekubo is generally deferential to Mob, but has a less respectful attitude towards Reigen.)

Ekubo: Good thing we have a carton of eggs. We don’t have any meat or vegetables, but using fish flakes should be okay. 

Alright, Just wait a bit. (He’s humming)

Reigen: We have rice right?

Ekubo: Didn’t that client give you a bag of rice last week as payment? Did you forget?

Ekubo: Of course you forgot. All you eat is junk food anyway.

Reigen: You got a problem with that?

(Pretty much everything we see Reigen eat in the show is more or less japanese junk food. Takoyaki is just fried dough with toppings, there’s a very tiny bit of octopus on the inside. This is the equivalent of having chili cheese fries or nachos for lunch everyday.) 

Ekubo: Making a growing kid eat what you eat everyday is just irresponsible. Some adult you are. 

Reigen: Shut up, I am very serious about personal nutrition. Oi, Mob, I’m borrowing your apron for it bit.

Mob: Alright. 

Reigen: Alright (wearing a child-sized apron with a bunny on it)

Ekubo: Wait....what are you doing? 

Reigen: .....

Reigen:  How about a friendly wager while we’re waiting for the rice to cook?

Ekubo: Yeah? What do you have in mind?

Reigen: THE ULTIMATE FRIED EGG.  Ekubo: Bring it. 

Reigen cracks an egg alls smug

Ekubo thinks: He looks so smug with his one handed egg crack

Ekubo watches Reigen fry an egg. Reigen finishes and plates it.

Ekubo: There’s nothing remotely special about that. 

Reigen: Simple and classic is best.

Ekubo: That’s it? That’s the extent of your ability? You brought on this challenge. That’s all you’re gonna do?

Reigen is pissed: What?!

Ekubo: You cant even pretend to be good at this. That’s just pathetic. Watch carefully. Let me show you how it’s done. 

Ekubo continues to cook while Reigen watches. He covers the pan and adds multiple ingredients and seasonings, which Reigen did not do. 

Ekubo: Back up a bit

Reigen: Eh? 

Ekubo does a fancy pan trick where he flips the pan against his arm. The egg drops neatly onto a plate. 

Reigen thinks: Wow he’s good. 

Reigen thinks: And..Mob is so impressed. 

Mob: Ekubo is incredible! It looks so good! 

Reigen thinks: Hey he’s MY disciple ?!

Heh... well... It’s not really all that impressive. At least from my standpoint as an adult. 

Part 2 here

[and--you-are-weightless]

8/19/22

okay. i gotta get serious abt losing weight again. like its getting back to the point i feel uncomfortable in some of my clothes again, especially my bras. so im gonna start doing nightly journal entries taking abt what i ate today, any exercise i did, how i felt, and what my plans for the next day are. if i count calories or purge ill put that here too.

ill start them all w the date and tag them all "#shellys day" so u can black list that if u want. i know i havent reblogged pics in a while but ive just been in such an awful binging cycle and also getting most of my th1nspo from insta lately

anyway

today was really bad. i went to work decided on panda express for lunch. i always get kung pao chicken (290), chow mein (510), and some crab rangoons (190), so for lunch i had about 1,000 calories. it wasnt even very good and even tho i was full half way through i ate the whole thing anyway cuz im a disgusting pig. i spend the rest of my shift at work wishing i had got some poke instead so naturally even tho i wasnt hungry i stopped and got poke after work. i have no idea how many calories are in it, i at least get the poke salad option so theres just lettuce instead of rice but it was still way too much and again even tho i was full half way thru i made myself eat the rest. i also got some fried rice balls cuz im a fucking cow and decided to really make myself feel worse than i already did. after i ate i just laid down and kept feeling worse and worse til i went to throw up like maybe an hour or an hour and a half after eating. i still have two rice balls left i really want before i go to bed. i dont have any more easy high calorie foods left in the house other than the cookies my dad made but hopefully hell give those away to friends before i binge on them. im gonna try to do better tomorrow. im gonna go to the gym with my dad in the morning if i can make myself get up in time. im also supposed to see one of my partners tomorrow evening and he always orders taco bell super later at night so i know ill end up eating something there but if i can have a little discipline itll be the only thing i eat tomorrow. then starting saturday night after whatever i eat w my partner im gonna start a 36 hour fast. im gonna allow liquid calories but nothing crazy, just its ok to put a little creamer in my coffee or a spoon of sugar in my tea i mean. if i mess up im gonna restart til i make it thru the fast. once i make it thru im gonna go back on a low-carb diet and focus on protein and veggies again. carbs are always my downfall. once i start on pasta and potatos and bread and sugar i always ruin my diet and start binging on everything. maybe ill make more balerina soup again. idk but im gonna fix this. my current achievable goal is to lose 20 lbs by december. if i can lose about 2 lbs a week i can do that. i just gotta focus and stop binging. i can let myself have a cheat day every now and then when im w my friends or a partner but i have to stop rewarding myself with food and overeating when im depressed.

"i know you can’t cook for shit so i’ve been bringing you dinner every night, just, y’know, to keep you alive" w/ hidge please i'd die and also draw you fanart of it

THIS WENT LONGER THAN I EXPECTED BUT IM HAPPY 

Here’s the fanart:

Her mother always said a girl had to learn to cook. Ofcourse, Pidge had insisted she had more important things to do, and she wasn’tpart of gender stereotypes anyway. Anyone could survive off of dinner invites,fast food, and microwave dinners.

Except she didn’t want to. When she’d been dating Hunk, he cookeddinner every night and made breakfast for them every Saturday. Her personalfavorite was his breakfast fried rice with Spam and breakfast sausages. Healways  let her sleep in and gave her acup of coffee when she woke up so she could join him to eat on the couch asthey continued whatever show they were binging.

They’d broken up on… somewhat amicable terms. She didn’thate him. And he didn’t hate her, at least she didn’t think so. She did have todrop off anything she had of his at the apartment he was rooming at with Lance.He still talked with Matt from time to time, but they worked together. Still,even Matt didn’t seem to be able to villainize Hunk.

It was a complicated breakup. They didn’t have time for eachother at all. Pidge was busy with school and work, exhausted by the time shegot home. That only made her cranky, and she’d nitpick at anything Hunk did ordidn’t do. She knew she was doing it, she just… couldn’t stop.

Then Hunk had met someone else through his cateringbusiness. He’d mentioned her as an offhand comment, a new acquaintance. ButPidge noticed he was on his phone more, that he didn’t bug Pidge to find morefree time anymore. Which on the one hand was good, but on the other… well notso much. She hadn’t gone crazy or anything. She didn’t check his messages orstalk his social media. But she noticed he was happier.

She asked him about it. And Hunk, who never lied to her, andswore he never would, told her the truth. There was nothing more than afriendship between himself and Shay. But he was ashamed to admit he had to becareful to keep it that way. That he’d nearly made mistakes in the times he metup with her. But he’d never acted on it.

Pidge had simply nodded, kissed his cheek, grabbed her keys.She claimed she was going to get a coffee to clear her head and energize herfor her studying. Which she did. But on the way back, she couldn’t stop thetears that had come out of nowhere and had to pullover. A cop had stopped forher, asking if she was okay. When Pidge explained she was just a littleemotional, the officer had offered to escort her home. Pidge thanked her anddrove home with a cop tailing her.

She’d gone into her home to find Hunk asleep on the couch,in the same spot she’d left him. She’d woken him up, tears threatening to spillall over again.

“This isn’t healthy,” she whispered. “I think… we need toend this.”

He’d protested, but Pidge made points out of their lack oftime, Hunk’s already wandering eyes, the fact that she knew she could beinsensitive when she was stressed. She didn’t want him to start hating her, andshe didn’t want to risk hating him. Not when she loved him so much.

And now, here she was, nearly a month without a singlehomecooked meal, attempting to make pancakes. It shouldn’t be this hard. Therewere instructions on the damn box, she was an engineer for crying out loud. Butshe couldn’t make a stupid fucking pancake.

She cursed as the smoke alarm went off again and stared atthe burnt piece of- God she couldn’t even call it a pancake- on the pan. Shesighed and decided if she and Hunk were supposed to be friends still, it wasokay to ask him to help her. Right? She needed food. Healthy food. Not KraftMac N’ Cheese or Stouffer’s one-person lasagna.

She bit her lip and grabbed her phone.

***

The consistent chiming of his phone was what woke Hunk up.He groaned and sat up, fumbling for his phone. He was a little confused whenthe phone showed “Katie” because he didn’t know a Katie. Except he did… he wasjust used to calling her Pidge. He unlocked his phone and scrolled up.

The last message had been about two weeks before when shelet him know she’d left a box of his things at the door. And he’d told her totake care.

Now there were more.

So uh, this is alittle weird… but I’m super hungry but…

There was a picture of something black and charred in a pan.

I KEEP BURNINGEVERYTHING!!!

Pls help me. I’mstarving & haven’t had a homecooked meal in weeks.

I just want somefucking pancakes.

Hunk laughed to himself, feeling something fond in his chest.He typed back, telling her he’d be there soon.

Thank. You. So much.

He smiled at his screen and shook his head as he got up toget dressed.

A half hour later, he was knocking on Pidge’s- Katie’s door,holding his breath. It would be the first time they see each other since theybroke up almost two months ago. The door opened and he saw Katie wearing anoversized yellow sweater and sweats, her hair pulled into a small ponytailwhile the smaller strands fell out messily. She looked embarrassed, and keptpushing her glasses up, only to pull them back down the bridge of her nose.

“Uh. Hey,” she greeted.

“Hey Pi- uh. Katie. Good morning. I was told my culinaryservices were needed.”

She grimaced and opened the door further. “You’ve beenwarned.”

Hunk laughed and walked in. “Come on, it can’t be that-Whoa.” He cleared his throat and took in the kitchen. There was a messeverywhere, and it smelled of burn… something. “You weren’t kidding when yousaid you burned everything.”

“Nope,” she answered. She looked over at him, her expressioncompletely blank. “Fire alarm went off. Twice.”

Hunk suppressed a smile, but failed because she nudged himand groaned. “Okay, well, first thing’s first,” he said, opening the fridge.“When’s the last time you went grocery shopping?”

Katie looked around as though the answer would be somewherein the kitchen. Hunk chuckled and grabbed his keys, nudging her gently towardthe door. “Oh this should be fun,” she grumbled.

***

Arriving at Wal-Mart felt… nostalgic. Hunk got a cart andPidge walked beside him, comforted by their height difference. While the carride had been comfortable because of horrible singing and laughter, being atthe store felt different. Pidge felt nervous.

“So how’ve you been?” she asked as they started for the backwhere the frozen things were.

“I’ve been okay. It’s holiday season, so everyone’s callingin for catering.” She nodded, recalling how busy he could get during theholidays. “I’m saving up to open a restaurant. They have an empty building nearthe optometrist you go to. So I’m trying to lease it.”

“No way,” she said with a smile. “Seriously? You can startthe restaurant there?”

“Well, I know a lot of chefs. Shouldn’t be hard to getwaiters and waitresses. I’m not missing much.”

“Hunk, that’s… really incredible, oh my God.”

Hunk smiled at her and raised an eyebrow. “You seem sohappy.”

“I’m happy for you! I know how long you’ve wanted to dothis, and it’s gonna come true for you!” Hunk held her gaze and smiledappreciatively. Pidge cleared her throat and chuckled as she saw a hat displayin the clothes section across from the food section. “Look!” She grabbed alarge sunhat with edges so wide they seemed to scream “Personal space please.”

“Oh boy,” he laughed, leaning against the cart.

“Put one on,” she said.

“No.”

“Please?”

“No.”

“Hunk!” He chuckled and looked at her. “Well,” she said,putting on a southern belle accent. “You’d never believe what I heard Susan sayduring Sunday’s mass.” Hunk hummed and raised an eyebrow. “She said hercasserole was better than mine!”

“Don’t blame her none, Miss Katie, you probably burned yours.”

Pidge’s jaw dropped, and she swatted at his arm as shelaughed. “I mean you’re not wrong,” she said in a normal voice. “I love thesehats. They’re so ridiculous.” She put the hat back and gestured to a different aisle.“I’m done with frozen. I can’t have another Marie Callendar’s pot pie.”

“Okay, well, what do you want to eat?”

She sighed and shrugged. “It’s hard to want to make stuffwhen it’s just me, you know? Right now I just really want pancakes and hotchocolate. And like, I know the hot chocolate is just hot milk and the packet,but it still doesn’t taste like you make it.” She looked away and busied herselfwith boxes of cake and cookie mixes set out for Christmas celebrations.

A few seconds later, Hunk said, “Okay. So today we make chocolatechip pancakes from scratch. When you want to make something else, I can helpyou out again.” Pidge looked back at him, dubious. “Come on, Katie,” he said witha smile. “Get into the cart.”

“In the cart?” he nodded and she clambered in, cross legged.Without warning, Hunk began racing between the aisles, making Pidge gasp andlaugh nervously. “Whoa-whoa! Oh my gosh!” she laughed and held onto the sides,wincing as they narrowly missed a few displays. “Hunk, you’re going too fast!”

He came to an abrupt stop and she held herself in place,laughing breathlessly as she looked up at him. “That was never a problembefore.”

Pidge’s eyebrows went up, her cheeks reddening. She turnedand kept her eyes on him refusing to back down. “I’m hungry. Now is not the timefor sexual innuendos.” She sat and pointed. “To the chocolate!”

Somehow, the search of a few simple ingredients took themnearly two hours, and Pidge had forgotten she was hungry in the first place. Bythe time they got back to her place, it was past noon. But she still wantedpancakes.

Hunk began listing the different measurements andtechniques, but Pidge was just enjoying herself by watching the way he mixed.It was quick like he was barely even thinking about what he was doing. Heworked quickly with no mess. Pidge envied it.

He began to pour the batter into a pan, spatula in hand andPidge sat herself on the counter beside the stove. She was in charge of passingthe bowl of batter to him. She bit her lip and rested her head on the cabinetsbehind her.

“So…. Shay’s cool with you doing this?”

“Sh-Shay?” he questioned, looking over at her.

She smiled and shrugged, looking away. “Uh, Lance told meyou guys started dating.” Hunk pursed his lips and looked down at the pan. “It’scool. Just… don’t want to cause any problems.”

“Things with her didn’t… work out.”

“Oh?” Hunk chuckled and shrugged, placing a couple ofpancakes on a plate. He gestured for more batter, but Pidge didn’t notice. “Why?Did something happen?”

“Does it matter?” he asked, gesturing again.

She shrugged and swung her legs. “I’m just wondering. If we’refriends, we can talk about this stuff, right?”

Hunk sighed and stood in front of her, hands on either sideof her on the counter. “You’re supposed to be learning. Not gossiping.”

It was one of those rare moments when she was at eye-levelwith him. “Oops,” she breathed. Hunk smiled slightly and Pidge bit her lip. Sheprobably seemed nosy.

“She’s not you,” he whispered. Pidge looked at him in shock.

“But… you said-”

“I know what Isaid, Pidge.” She took a sharp breath at the sound of him using her nickname again.“But just because she was pretty…. That’s not enough. She was nice and funny,but a lot of girls are. But you’re…. You’re so insanely smart, and beautiful anddetermined and strong and…. No one comes close you. No one ever will. You were morethan just my girlfriend. You were my best friend.”

Pidge let out a shaky breath and gulped. She leaned forward,her arms over his shoulders and very slowly tilted her head. Hunk shut his eyesand leaned forward to meet her lips. It didn’t last as soft and innocent.

They’d been without each other too long. Starving for eachother. Pidge was shaking with how badly she’d been craving him. To hold him, tolean against him, to feel his warmth, his lips. Hunk’s arms wrapped around hermiddle, holding her tightly.

She only pulled away when she needed to breathe, forehead pressedagainst his. “I never should’ve let you go,” she choked past the knot in herthroat.

“And I never should’ve left.”
