It was snowing when Haggis made his way into the kitchen. The path from the docks to the dormitory was littered with a fine layer of virgin snow, the ice-cold specks freezing his nose every time they landed on it. By the time he had made it through the common area and into the rather large kitchen, his face felt like it was about to freeze off.

Of course, the kitchen was warm, as most kitchen's were, even without any ovens or burners on. The feeling washed over him like a wave, making the boy sigh happily as the bright green-jacket and blue scarf combo he supported suddenly became too hot to wear. Taking in a deep breath, the scent of fresh vegetables, flour, and various spices tickled his nose in the most pleasant way possible. However the strongest scent in the room had to be of baked goods, as just about everything was during this time of the year. Haggis shrugged off his coat and the closed kitchen door behind him, afraid of bothering anyone who would happen to come in and out of the common area. He folded his jacket neatly, but kept the lovely blue scarf around his neck as his green eyes cautiously peered around.

Slowly he walked through the kitchen, and his heart filled with contentment. He didn't even know why the kitchen held such amazing, almost nostalgic feelings in his heart. It could have been from the fact that all of the smells were relaxing and delicious, or because he used to help his mother bake bread in their kitchen as a child, or even because the idea of curling up in the corner of a warm place during a cold day was appealing to just about anybody (human or otherwise). All Haggis knew was that it was cold, close to the holidays, and right now baking sounded like a really nice idea.

The goat-demon had stopped near the center of a counter and reached out for a small bag of flour, pulling it closer to him. It's scent overwhelmed his nostrils and made his ears twitch in delight as he stood quietly in the warm room, wracking his brain for the memory of just the right recipe. All that could be heard was the quiet ticking of a nearby clock.

Alicia knew that dragging two blankets and a pillow to the kitchen was probably not the best idea and would be most likely frowned upon by several teachers. However her shared room with the "currently not around to be a hot water bottle to snuggle with" Feluis, was just not warm enough for her. Hugging the pillow close and letting the ends of the blankets over her back trail the carpeted floor, she made her way through the corridor, being drawn by the faint heat coming from the kitchen.

When she got to the door from the common area to the kitchen, she slumped against it making an audible thump then slided down into a sitting position and pulled the blankets closer, giving up the notion of actually going in the kitchen and starting to doze off again.
Being a snake/Medusa hybrid and not hibernating, it sucks, it sucks and no one understands.

Haggis jumped as a sound emitted from the door, a low 'thunk', and nearly squeezed the bag of flour so hard it sprayed him with the white substance. Luckily, only a small cloud of it breathed from it's bag and covered the ends of his hair, which were now stained with a thin layer of white. It was ignored, however, as he peered over at the door with a frown. What on earth could have made that noise, he wondered, setting the flour down and trotting to the door. He paused only to run back over to the oven and set it on just the right temperature for cookies. After that was done, he hurried back to the door.

He paused for a moment and held the doorknob tightly, mind nervously jumping to every possibility. What if it was someone he didn't get along with, or a professor demanding why he was in the kitchen with the oven on, or even a scary monster?! Shaking the ideas out of his head, Haggis took in a deep breath and swung the door open, peering around with a rather quiet, but shaky, "H-Hello?!"

Alicia unceremoniously dropped to the floor on her side as the door was taken away from her, this of course promptly woke her up from half asleep status. "whh? hello..." she mumbled slowly in reply, getting into a sitting position, she look up at whomever had opened the door. "Haggis?" she squinted at the slightly blurry goat demon, rubbing her eyes to get the sleep out of them but instead realised that her glasses were missing. She shot up covering her face with the pillow, the blankets left on the floor "I-I'm not wearing my glasses!" she exclaimed ducking her head down "I don't want to turn you to stone by accident..." nervous about what to do, the Medusa considered running back to her room to hide in a clothes-pile and pretend someone did not just catch her falling asleep on a door and falling on the floor embarrassingly, however it was obvious that she could just use her spare glasses. Carefully she turned to face the left then sheepishly looked up from the pillow, placed it on the floor and pulled out a [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] from the pocket on her dress.

With rectangular orange glasses on Alicia no longer felt so nervous, she glanced at Haggis and gave an awkward smile "um it's okay now... what're you doing in the kitchen?"

Haggis panicked, looking up at the ceiling until Alicia put her glasses on. He may have been worried, but he certainly didn't want to be turned to stone! Once she got them on, he immediately leaned down and examined her in order to make sure that she wasn't injured. "Alicia! G-Gosh are you okay?" He mumbled in surprise, eyes scowering the side of her face for any sign of physical damage. Once he realized that she was unharmed, he let out a deep sigh of relief and gave her a kind smile, standing up straight again and only just noticing the flower traces in his hair. Blushing a little, he reached up and rubbed the back of his neck.

"Oh...well...it's awfully cold outside 'n all....and...well...I kinda wanted to bake." He gave her a nervous smile before staring back into the kitchen. Biting his lip, the goat-demon took a minute to think before finally stuttering out, "Um...w-w-ould you like ta come in? I mean...it's a lot warmer in there if you need to sleep a-and...well...there'll be cookies in a bit?" A small laugh bubbled up in his throat, and his ears flopped up and down a second before he opened the door wider, half leaning against the frame while still holding the knob tightly, awaiting her reply.

"I-I'm fine, I just fell... not a big deal" She flushed, looking off to her left whist rubbing her face with the palm of her hand.  When he mentions cookies Alicia faces him and instantly brightens up "oh yeah sure lemme just-" She bends down to scoop up the blankets and the pillow, then shuffles past him through the door.  Finding a stool she places the pillow on top and shrugs the blankets around like a cloak, she takes a seat and leans over the counter-top head on her crossed arms.  "Thanks um nudge me if I don't wake up?"  She blinks a few times before slowly blacking out again.

Haggis watched Alicia for a moment, quietly nodding his head in agreement before she fell asleep again. He couldn't help but allow a small smile to slip past his lips, along with a light chuckle. Being as quiet as he could, the goat demon went back to his table of baking ingredients. With the oven heated up, a comfortable warmth trickled over the entire kitchen, ridding any goosebumps or leftover chill that either of the students had held from their walks through the cold corridors of the castle. Grabbing a whisk, Haggis placed some softened butter, sugar, and brown sugar into a bowl and began to stir them together. Instead of vanilla extract, as cookies normally called for, the boy made sure to throw in a small sprig of mint extract instead. The room went quiet again, but Haggis could still hear the whistling of the wind outside and Alicia's quiet breathing on the table. Occasionally he would look up from his whisking, just to make sure it was still her there. Every time he looked up, it was, and he would smile a little more. Even the presence of someone else in the lonely room made him a little more comfortable.

Within 15 minute the cookies were prepared and plopped into the oven. Taking the bowl and whisk in his hand, Haggis dipped a finger in and tasted some cookie dough himself. It was chocolatey and minty and pretty okay, to him. When he reached Alicia, he leaned on the other side of the table, head in his arms, watching her for a moment. She looked really comfortable, sleeping like that, should he wake her up? She said to if the cookies were ready. Well, they weren't quite ready yet. They had at most 10 more minutes in the oven. Grabbing the dough covered spoon, Haggis leaned forward, tapping the clean non-doughy end of the stirring mechanism against the medusa's head.

"Um...A-Alicia?" Haggis whispered out, like a mother waking up her child, "cookies are almost done...well, um, they will be done in a few minutes...I was just, erm, wondering if you'd want to lick the spoon? Haha..." A blush coated Haggis' face as the emberassment of the situation slowly sunk into his being. His tail swished behind him nervously and his teeth found their way to biting his bottom lip as he leaned back a bit, but still offered the spoon to the girl in front of him.
