Pizza Planet, Monday

[carbsliftthespirit]

Raiden might be new to Fandom, but he was an old hand at making it work in the kitchen, so when he opened the walk-in and found a bunch of stuff that didn't belong in a pizza joint's kitchen, he fired off a text to his distributor that it looked like he'd gotten someone else's order and set about figuring out what to do with...well. That. In a few minutes, he had an idea that just might work.

Specials
Arugula & Mushroom Breakfast Pizza
Bacon & Egg Breakfast Pasta

"Pizza, me hearties," Charlie called when she came in. "I can pay you in song. Or money, of course, though song is more fun."

[carbsliftthespirit]

"Hey, Charlie," Raiden, who did not know it was any kind of a thing today, let alone a pirate thing, said around a mouthful of calzone, then held up one finger to ask her to wait while he finished chewing. Okay, there. "What kind of pizza do you want? And I will happily accept payment in song!"

This was why Castor cried while he did the budget. Right here.

[wildgalegirl]

"You are the best!" Charlie said. "I'm rather intrigued by the bacon and egg breakfast pizza. Now what's your pleasure when it comes to a song?"

She was already unslinging theguitar from her back in preparation.

[carbsliftthespirit]

"One breakfast pizza coming up!" Raiden said, and punched the order in. "I don't know, surprise me. Do you know any shanties?"

[wildgalegirl]

"Do I ever!" Charlie said and launched into a rousing rendition of 'Leave her Johnny', encouraging anyone who might be around to join in with 'Leave her Johnny, leave her!'on the choruses.

Raiden took mercy on everyone's eardrums and did not sing along, but he did clap when Charlie was done. "I'd call that worth a pizza!"

[wildgalegirl]

Charlie made a half bow in acknowledgement. "I thank you, kind sir! Always happy to give you a song."

Jane hadn't stopped by the pizza place somehow even though she'd been told it was where Raiden worked. Owned and worked.

"Going with a theme there?" she asked, looking at the specials.

[carbsliftthespirit]

"I think we got a breakfast place's delivery instead of ours," Raiden said. "A breakfast place in Pennsylvania, I guess." He shrugged his massive shoulders. "I made it work."

[needsacatchphrase]

"You know, I don't think I know what scrapple is," she admitted.

[carbsliftthespirit]

"You might wanna leave it that way," Raiden told her. "You'll be happier."

[needsacatchphrase]

"That bad?" Yes, Jane. That bad.

[carbsliftthespirit]

"The part where it has 'scrap' in it might be a clue." He was just sayin'.

[needsacatchphrase]

"Let's go with the other pizza," Jane said immediately. Because she was sane, you see.

[carbsliftthespirit]

Raiden nodded. "Good call. The pasta is really good, too, if I do say so myself. A lot of people don't seem to even know that we sell pasta. I mean, obviously the pizza is the star. It's pizza. But variety is the spice of life, you know?"

[needsacatchphrase]

"You could always put pasta on the pizza, couldn't you?" Oh yeah, really carb load.

It had been a while since Goose had had a pizza, actually he couldn’t remember the last time he had stopped by pizza planet in general.

He was also trying to distract himself from running over and asking Prompto about Ignis because he knew Prompto had just gotten back and would be more focused on Liz right now.

“Um, hello,” he called out softly, as he stood awkwardly near the entrance.

[carbsliftthespirit]

"Hey, there!" Raiden boomed enthusiastically. "Welcome to Pizza Planet! What can I do for ya?"

[notagoose]

“I was er …looking to try a pizza?” Goose said rather awkwardly, “I haven’t had one in a while,” he admitted, “what would you recommend?”

[carbsliftthespirit]

"It really depends on what you're in the mood for," Raiden told him. "There's a bit of a theme with our specials today. If you're interested in breakfast with your pizza. But off the regular menu, you can't go wrong with a good ol' sausage pizza. Mmm. Sausage."

[notagoose]

“I’ve never tried sausage pizza before,” Goose tilted his head, admittedly there was a lot of pizza he hadn’t tried.

Or he could get a couple of pizzas and then have some leftovers as well.

“I might have a sausage pizza and a …” he read over the specials, “bacon and egg pizza,” he settled on.

[carbsliftthespirit]

"You've never--you've never had a sausage pizza? Are you from some sad pizza-less dimension? Is this your first day here? Oh, God, we have to fix this. Right now."

[notagoose]

Goose blinked a bit at that, “no there is pizza just didn’t really have much of an opportunity to try it,” he admitted.

“I did try to make a pizza once, I ended up burning it though,”

That was really not helping Goose.

He paused, “I’ve been here for …a year now? Since I’ve been back, I used to be a student up at the school though, I’m Shane Gooseman…” he added, “most people call me Goose,”

[carbsliftthespirit]

"You've been here for a year and--" Raiden stopped talking. "Why? Why would you not have pizza?" It simply did not compute. "This place was open before I moved here, right?" Oh, wait. "Do you have that gluten thing? You should have led with that."

[notagoose]

“Oh I’ll eat anything,” Goose added quickly, “haven’t found something I didn’t like and Summer’s tried …even when it was maggot cheese,”

Goose had actually liked that.

“Even though sometimes I forget about things like eating, my …partner?” he still wasn’t really sure what to call his and Ignis’ relationship, “he taught me how to cook food without burning the place down, especially after what happened with the pizza,”

Well it wasn’t quite just the pizza but Goose didn’t really remember the whole conversation that he’d had with Ignis about being a genetically engineered super soldier either.
