Christmas Dinner || Zeus, Tartarus, Charon, Hades, Reyna and Percy (?)
Enyo had spent most of the day cooped up in her loft (it was one in the city, more for convenience if she was planning to visit her family than where she actually lived), using the massive kitchen she’d been insistent upon to its full extent. All three ovens were running at one time, popping out some baked good, a ham, or even a turkey as the day progressed. The counters were covered in flour and yeast and unusable bits of vegetables. The fridge was stocked full with eggs and milk and all matters of other things, the supply rapidly wearing down through the day. She could not remember a time when she had cooked so much within the past century, possibly two!
But she was smiling, for she loved it. She loved the work, and she loved the idea that others would be spending the holidays with her. It had grown dull, spending them alone all these years. Visitors were much needed. And perhaps she was going a bit overboard- there were only a few coming, after all- but she couldn’t much care. It was nice, really.
Besides, if they asked where the food came from, she’d simply say she bought it. Like hell she was telling them she’d cooked it. That cat was staying in the bag.
She was coming back from throwing the last remains of her supplies away in the garbage downstairs (she’d removed ALL evidence that she’d been cooking) when she ran into the first of her guests, standing before the elevator. She threw them a grin. “Well you’re a tad early, but that’s okay I suppose.”
