Patton hums as xey slowly cut slices of muscle off of the dead body in front of xem. "Hmmm... Hey, Jan? Get the slow roaster, please. I want to make a stew soon using the psoasis muscle."

Janus scoffs, poking at his dead body. "Well. This will be the first time I eat myself." He stands and walks towards the kitchen, opening a cabinet and bringing out the slow roaster.

Virgil hums, watching as Patton cooks. "Honestly, Pat? You scare me a bit. I don't know how you can do all this without being terrified or scared."

Patton smiles, xir eyes lighting up. "Oh- Well, I can do this stuff because I've had practice. It's not bad when you get used to it. At first, I was a nervous wreck around the bodies." Xey slice a thin strip of meat off of one of the thighs elegantly, humming softly to xemself.

Roman peaks out from behind a door, looking over at the group. "Logan is still distracting Thomas, by the way. We should be alright."

Patton grins from ear to ear, xir smile shining with pure glee. "Great! And Remus..?"

Roman frowns, looking down. "Ugh. He's trying to distract Logan and Thomas at the same time. It... might be working."

Virgil scoffs, bringing over a large brownie pan. "Of course he is. I wouldn't be surprised if he told Thomas."

Taking the meat, Janus looks up at Virgil. "Oh, please. Remus may be the very embodiment of intrusive thoughts, but he wouldn't ruin his chance to blackmail Patton and I."

Patton slices another thin strip of meat, with xir eyes locked onto the work with sheer determination. "Mm. I think he would. Even then, it doesn't matter. If Thomas finds out, he finds out. He'll just end up making it so that I can only leave the mind palace with someone else."

Janus hums, layering the meat slices in lines on the brownie pan; smearing the tops with butter and thin potato slices. "You're right. Virgil, pass the rosemary?"

Virgil nods, walking over to the spice rack. "If Thomas does find out, who do you think he'd have to monitor you?"

Patton shrugs, xir eyes looking up for a second. "Mm... Likely Roman. Or Logie."
