Cho Takahashi (24) Marine scientist working on my doctorate at home. Currently a consultant with the Eudio Aquarium. Interested in all branches of science, not just coastal preservation. The opportunity to gain new knowledge is the best reason for getting out of bed in the morning. A holiday from reality seems like the perfect opportunity to learn about different worlds and cultures. Teach me something new and you'll have a friend for life. I'm more than willing to make dinner for anyone who would like to come over to watch movies or play video games, or just talk and take the time to get to know one another. I love to cook. Come help me keep my fridge from being overtaken by leftovers.

[[OOC: Jason Todd is responsible for setting Cho up with cuddlr. She didn't even know she had a written profile until it was pointed out ot her. She thought it was just a photo and her name. She changed the text, but kept the picture, because she misses Jason.]] Old profile text: Sweet as heck girl looking for the good time she deserves. Idiots need not apply.

[ Looking for a good time? Spock is not the individual right for that course of action. ]

[tenuefarfalla]

Do you mind if I ask why? You certainly don't need to answer, but I would appreciate knowing what I've done to offend, if you are comfortable sharing.

[mindmeld]

Your profile indicates you wish to look for a good time. I am not in the habit of indulging in what most humans refer to as "good times." And as it contains little else, it is reasonable to assume we would not be compatible.

[tenuefarfalla]

My profile? Do you mean my picture is too revealing?

[She finds that idea surprising, but appreciates him sharing. Perhaps he comes from a culture where bare skin is offensive. She does know that the way her hair is draped in the photo hides the strap of her tank top, but she hasn't considered before this moment that it might pose a problem.]

[mindmeld]

I refer to the description in the profile, not your picture.

[ While the picture is not as modest as a Vulcan would appear, it is hardly the worst Spock has come across. ]

[tenuefarfalla]

[The fact that there is a profile beyond the picture is news to her. Being Cho, when Jason said it was just a photo, she believed him. Which is probably what he was counting on.

Now that she goes poking around in the settings, she sees what Jason wrote. There is some fumbling on her end, during which her entire profile disappears for a couple of minutes, before she gets it changed and more accurately reflecting her desires for Eudio.]

This is embarrassing. Is this why you never got back to me about the cooking lessons?

[mindmeld]

It was, yes. Your profile indicated you were looking for a good time and I am generally not one who can provide such times.

[tenuefarfalla]

A friend of mine set it up for me. He told me it was just a picture. He meant well, I believe, even if his tactic was misguided.

I would still be willing to give you a cooking lesson if you were still interested. I really do enjoy spending time in the kitchen. There is something very zen about thoughtful meal preparation.

apologies for the lateness of this reply! ;;

[mindmeld]

You are not the first I have encountered with a profile written by another. It must be a common practice here.

Cooking lessons would still be agreeable. I have had a few lessons, but improving and expanding my repertoire is useful.

[tenuefarfalla]

I admit, it's not always easy for me to find people willing to engage in intimacy that I'm comfortable with. Perhaps I'm not the only one with the problem and others have friends who also want to help.

What lessons have you already had? What have you learned?

[[OOC: No worries at all. I'm about to put up a log. I could add a cooking lesson starter for Spock, if that's cool with you?]]

[mindmeld]

I do understand the troubles; you are not alone in that. I do not wish to compromise myself in order to fulfill these obligations and thus I prefer to become acquainted with individuals first.

I have learned to make a rather decent curry and a dish of lentils, along with a few basic preparations methods.

[[ ooc: that sounds wonderful ]]

[tenuefarfalla]

Assuming you enjoyed both of those dishes, I think we can build on that.

[[OOC: Spock learning to cook. I can't wait.]]

[mindmeld]

They were satisfactory. I have few preferences other than the lack of meat, so perhaps you could share your favorite.

[[ ooc: awesome, I will go hit that up right now! ]]

[tenuefarfalla]

I can do that. At your earliest convenience, then.
