I kind of like the idea of Mark’s egos having like a cooking rotation for who makes food so here’s a random assortment of headcanons for the egos skill with cooking. (Also the idea of them being forced to eat family dinner together is hilarious so.)
Dark is a surprisingly good cook despite the fact that none of his individual parts had any skill in the kitchen whatsoever. (Celine and Damien lived in a rich enough household they didn’t need to and the demon was otherwise occupied with being a demon and a house.) Most of his meals are simple but they are enjoyed by the rest of the egos.
Wilford is not allowed to cook. He doesn’t have nearly the concentration for it. Anything he does successfully make is so absurdly sweet that no one else can consume it and when he did have a turn cooking the kitchen routinely ended up messy and sometimes bullet riddled. They order pizza on Wilford’s nights.
Google is actually a really good cook as long as his search program can find a good recipe. That’s not always the case however and what he makes tends to be a mixed bag. He is absolutely horrible at improvising.
Bing tends to mess around with recipes a lot more than his brother. Sometimes if he’s lucky that turns out well. Othertimes it’s a disaster.
Dr. Iplier is usually too busy with work to make dinner but he’s amazing with breakfast food and any ego fortunate (or unfortunate) enough to find themselves awake at a reasonable hour of morning will find themselves greeted with a fresh omlet or a plate of golden brown pancakes and a friendly reminder of their imminent death.
The author never really needed to learn how to cook as he could generally summon up whatever food he needed and the host is not keen on taking steps to learn now.
Nobody knows how Silver cooks with mittens on but some how he manages it with reasonable proficiency.
Bim is actually a really good cook since he usually has to make meals for himself if he wants them to his tastes. He does cook for the group as well though but he has to be under tight supervision, usually from Google to be allowed to do so.
Yan is also not allowed to cook for other’s unsupervised as last time that happened several egos ended up poisoned. He is a good cook though so he hasn’t had the privilege revoked entirely.
There was a lot of skepticism the first time the king of the squirrels cooked. He is the only ego who is somewhat vegiterian, not wanting to hurt any of his forest subjects. All of the skeptics were immediately turned fans when his fist meal was tasted. He has been known to find ways to use peanut butter in things no one thought it was possible to use peanut butter in.
The Jim Twins (yes I know there are at least four, they’re still twins fight me) don’t cook by themselves but they do take turns helping out the other’s in the kitchen.
Woah this turned out pretty long. I’ve been brainstorming this for a week so I hope you guys enjoy.
