yup. yup. headcanon now codified. Alfred is the only one of the Kirkland brood with any cooking ability and during family holiday get-togethers he guards the kitchen jealously. yeah Matt and Jack and NZ can help him cook, he appreciates it, but Arthur and his siblings? banned. all of ye, banned from the kitchen, out! out! out! [clacks tongs menacingly]
heโs not as snobbish and obnoxious about his food as, say, Francis or Feliciano, but he can definitely be kinda annoying about it on occasion. but man, his grilled catfish makes it hard to argue with him.

Rengoku Kyojuro is a patience young boy. He took pride in that small bit of him because he was aware of how much damages could be done when your emotions were left unchecked. He was patience when it comes to completing his training, patience when it comes to taking care of his little brother and certainly patience when it comes to deal with his father.
But he, just like other normal human beings, had his own limits too.
Kyojuro couldn't helped but to glower down on the waste of food in the trash can -- the food that he and Senjuro had cooked for their dear father. Among the food, scattering around were pieces of papers, one that he recognized its origins based on the writings he could detect from tbe pieces. The food and letters he and Senjuro had made for their dear father. For their father's birthday. Senjuro, bless that small boy, had been nothing but excited and skipping in his steps when he walked around the market with Kyojuro to find the food's ingredients, blabbering on whether their father would like the meal they made for him or not. Senjuro was so excited to show how much progress he had made in writing kanji that he kept redoing the letters all day before.
The least their father could've done would be keeping the letters if he found the food to be inedible for him.
Kyojuro lose the appetite to make himself a dinner, plopping his sheathed sword on the table as he hurried to tie the plastic from the trash can to be put outside before Senjuro could see the fills in it. He wouldn't want his little brother to cry another endless of tears with the lack of love from their father. He kept his hands clenched, keeping down the boiling rage inside him as he walked passed his father's bedroom.
The urge to burst in and scream at the old man was tempting, but Kyojuro knew nothing would be gained through reckless anger.
Yet, even after he finished with putting out the trash and scrubbing his hands clean, he still couldn't sit tight or calm himself. His uniform was dirty from the last mission he just finished. He should take a bath. But he stood there alone in the kitchen, hands still clenching tight. With a huff, Kyojuro placed back his sword into his belt and left the estate to take a walk outside. Danger be damned, if he couldn't tone down his anger, he would be the most dangerous one around lurking in the night. He walked and walked, mind somewhere else, letting his feet to take the lead.
Kyojuro tilted his head up to the sky, pressing his lips. Oh, what would his mother thought of the family situation now? Her absence had a great effect, but his father acted like he was the only one who suffered the most. By God, Kyojuro and Senjuro lost their own mother that day, Senjuro couldn't even remembered how she looked like! They could still lived like it was another normal day, but why couldn't their father did the same? Why couldn't their father be strong enough? Why did it have to be Kyojuro who had to lighten up the household and carried on the responsibility?
He was so tired. He just turned 16 years old last month, give him a break.
Kyojuro stopped walking, his mind snapped back to reality as a new scent stirred in the air. His stomach growled once he recognized the smell to be of a food, alerting him that he had not eaten anything since finishing his mission. Which stall opened at late night near the forest? Maybe it was a demon's trick. With that in mind, he grasped on the hilt of his sword, eyes darting around for any signs of dangers as he continued to walk closer to where the smell would be.
Standing in front of him now was a building, the sign outside introduced him that it was a restaurant. A restaurant in the middle of nowhere? How very suspicious. Kyojuro approached the building and noticed a small whiteboard sign propped near the entrance.

Huh, he never seen such rules before in any food selling places he went to. Looking at the structure of the building, it seemed to be newly built and recently opened. Still suspicious though, why would anyone want to build a restaurant away from the public eyes? The sounds of footsteps coming from the inside caused him to jump in surprise, and peeking out through the entrance was a woman.
She didn't looked Japanese, perhaps a foreigner. The woman noticed Kyojuro standing outside and blinked at him. She stared at him for a good couple of seconds before standing straight, adjusting her headscarf and smiled.
" It's a bit late for you to be out. Would you like to come in for something to eat? "
Kyojuro would have rejected the invitation if it wasn't for his stomach growling louder than before, drawing in the awkwardness and embarrassment in him. The woman tilted her head, her smile seemed amused now. Defeated, Kyojuro covered his red ears with his hair and looked down on his clothes.
" I apologize for my state of clothing. I didn't even know there was a restaurant around here. "
" Do you have blood on them? "
Kyojuro squinted his eyes a little. " I hope not. "
" Hmm, good enough for me. Wash your hands and feet first before coming in. "
The woman disappeared inside the building, leaving Kyojuro to decide what to do. He wished he had bathed first before taking a walk. Dusting off the dirt from his clothes, he took off his footwear and cleaned his hands and feet.
___________
The inside of the building was much more fascinating that he thought it would be. The lights were bright, clean tables and chairs neatly in their positions and the plants inside made the place looked more lively. He was so busy looking around the facility he didn't realized the woman had placed his order in front of him, as well as his drink. He wasn't sure what to order, so he opted for a noddle meal, in which the woman nodded and told him she had something for him.
The broth looked heavenly thick, white noddles filling in every corner of the bowl, green vegetables and onions in the soup made it looked fresh and the boiled egg and shrimps popping out in between the noodles seemed to glint under the light. It was the same scent he smelled before -- filled with richness and spiciness that smelled so good even before his tongue could taste it first. It was beautiful.
" You're drooling. " The woman offered him chopsticks, seemingly pleased that her cooking looked good. " If you want to use spoon or fork, I'll get them for you. "
Kyojuro smiled back, reaching for the chopsticks. " Thank you for the food. " Careful not to burn himself, he slowly took the first bite of the noddles.
Oh, this. This reminded him of the times his mom would made him noodle soup when he was feeling down. She would also made tempura and sweet potatoes dessert for him, smiling so sweetly as he offered to help her cook. The coconut broth of the meal was delicious, the noodles were easy to chew and swallow. It was both spicy and sweet, bot flavors balancing each other. The food was warm, it was tasty and it was comforting.
" ๐๐ฎ๐ข๐ช! " Kyojuro found himself chanting as he took another bite, again and again until only the broth was left in the still steaming bowl. That was fast. He didn't realized how starving he was.
The woman returned again, napkins in her hands as she lit up at the finished food.
" That good? "
" It was amazing! Delicious! " Kyojuro cried out, noting on how he felt more energetic than before. " What it this meal? Please do tell me! "
She laughed. " It's laksa, usually done with coconut broth or curry flavor. Laksa is a spicy noodle soup from Malaysia, also found in other South East Asian counties including Singapore and Indonesia."
" I feel so much better now! Amazing! " He repeated, eyes twinkling in amazement.
" I am glad you like it, kid. It's on the house. "
" Oh no, I simply cannot -- "
" It's fine, I am about to close anyway. " She insisted, waving the napkins in his face before setting it down on the table. " Besides, I couldn't leave a hungry child out alone, could I? "
" Well then, if you can't receive money as my thank you, then shall I spread the word of your restaurant so you can gain more customers? " He suggested, crossing his arms over his chest. " I do find this place to be too far from the public..."
The woman paused, a flicker of worry could be seen on her face, which then vanished as she gave him a smile.
" I guess that would be nice. Thank you, Rengoku. "
Kyojuro nodded, pleased with the settlement. Belly full, energy recharged and in a good mood, he bid the woman goodnight and hurried back to his house, already thinking of bringing Senjuro to the restaurant and maybe even try on the woman's recipe to try again with gifting his father with another food.
It didn't occured to him of how she knew his name in the first place.
i love stoner NA bros so much. the idea of alfred and mattie just eyes glazed on the couch eating doritos and nacho dip while watching kitchen nightmares (because as alfred puts it, being yelled at in a british accent is comforting) and cackling every time gordon ramsey reminds them of arthur.

have a good day/night/morning! ily <3
- dancing parrot ๐ฆ๐ถ
ah yes, our favorite creepy pup! there isnโt much to say about him, but hereโs a few little factsย
๐พ Smile does not kill people!! He never has!! Heโs a good boy!!
๐พ He also doesnโt speak (some blogs have the headcanon that he talks, and I think in the original canon he can say a few phrases, but I just canโt see it and therefore, on this blog, he doesnโt speak)ย
๐พ Smile was adopted by Slender as a Christmas present for Sally one year (meanie tumblr wonโt let me add the link but the story behind this is in my masterlist) but heโs now become Jeffโs dog and serves as sort of an emotional support animal
๐พ Smile and Jeff are very close, with Smile even sleeping in the same room as Jeff at night, and Smile helps to regulate Jeffโs moods.ย
๐พ Smile is mostly reddish but he also has black fur markings as well
๐พ Heโs very fluffy!!!ย
๐พ Which means he sheds. A lot.ย
๐พ If youโre allergic to dogs, you might think youโd be allergic to Smile, but you wonโt be. Heโs a different breed (ha) altogether, and although he has lots of fur that he sheds, for some reason, people with dog allergies arenโt allergic to him
๐พ Itโs probably due to the fact that, although we call him Smile Dog, he isnโt really a dog. Or at least, not the kind weโre used to.ย
๐พ Heโs a demonic dog, which there is a difference between demonic dogs and regular dogs
๐พ Slender thinks that Smile was probably turned into a demonic dog as a puppy, like how EJ was once a human but he became demonic, but nobody knows for sure.ย
๐พ Smile is abnormally friendly and behaves like a normal dog however, which could indicate that he was, at one point in his life, a normal dog. Or he could just be a very friendly demonic dog. Who knows?ย
๐พ Because he is a demonic dog, Smile eats a raw meat diet. Donโt worry, itโs not the same thing that EJ eats. Itโs just raw meat, like a cut of beef that youโd get at the grocery store except you donโt cook it. (Some pet dogs actually do have this kind of diet, but Smile requires raw meat. He canโt eat regular dog food).ย
๐พ Smile is also naturally nocturnal! Which means heโd be a sleepy boy during the day, but very active during the night. However, heโs sort of shifted his sleeping schedule since he lives with the other pastas, so now he sleeps during the late night and the morning, but is active during the afternoon and evening/early night.ย
๐พ Smile enjoys receiving pets. A lot. He craves attention and his fur is very soft so you can have a lot of fun patting him :)ย
๐พ Smile can have a bit of an attitude at times, not listening to commands that well, but for the most part heโs pretty well-behaved.ย
๐พ He knows several tricks! Heโs a smart boy :)ย
๐พ Smileโs doggy personality is a mix between a husky, golden retriever, Great Pyrenees and German shepherd.ย
๐พ In terms of looks, the closest he gets to a normal looking dog would be a cross between the two pictures below (red husky & husky/great pyrenees mix)ย
This is the texture and length of his fur:ย
This is the coloring and how he looks in the face (except the white parts are black and heโs more reddish than itโs pictured):ย
