Ed’s Cooking Corner

With special guest, @kxngofgotham as Oswald.

Ed: ...... It's probably for the best we didn't crash the wedding.

Oswald: What would they have done? Thrown us in jail? Oswald: ...if we had crashed it, we could have stolen the cake. I bet it was a good cake.

Ed: With their ration situation? They're lucky if they had condensed milk and a tub of lard to work with. Ed: And unless someone has chickens in the city, collecting that many pigeon eggs is extremely time consuming, and to figure out the proper conversion rate of egg-to-egg- Ed: ((has eaten a lot of pigeon eggs over the past few months))

Oswald: Not if the Wayne brat was catering it. They could have flown something in and WE could have just..snatched it. Oswald: Besides. I've been eating fresh STEAK for months. Don't be so naive to think everyone's out here struggling to survive off of--pigeon eggs. How do you even eat a pigeon egg? Do you just...fry it? Scramble it?

Ed: Just like a chicken egg, but... smaller. I couldn't find an exact recipe, but going off of the timing of a quail egg, I got very good at hardboiling them. Steak. You've been eating steak.

Oswald: That's right. Edward and I have been eating steak on a consistent basis. Oswald: So they absolutely could have had a REAL cake. That's the point I'm making.

Ed: ((huffs)) Well, sorry if I was too busy being a remote controlled play thing of some underground operatives- I couldn't get more creative with my dietary needs. You know, there were several cannibalistic cults cropping up in the neighborhood?

So I learned some time ago that Comiccon Asia 2018 was happening... AND they're having FOUR Overwatch Voice Actors showing up as guests. <3 <3 <3

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA HAVE I MENTIONED HOW MUCH I LOVE THIS GAME AND JUST ABOUT EVERYTHING IN/AROUND/ABOUT IT???

I bought tickets for autographs and photo ops with Sym's and Sombra's VAs despite us still kind of recovering from a massive vet bill recently (which is another long story), and my husband didn't divorce me, so that's good haha. I really hoped to get tickets to see everyone because who knows when they'll be able to come back to this country -- or if they'd want to -- but two is the best we could do. Was also hoping to get a ticket for Zen's VA for the husband, but it was a no go. :( Thankfully, hubby is cool with it, but still... CURSE MY THIN WALLET. T__T;;

Anyway.... Soooooooo.... I bought passes for their March 25 appearance, and I suddenly got it into my head last night (at 1am saturday March 24... whyyyyyyyy...) to make a small tribute artwork for said OW VAs. And this is the result. Herp.

I don't think I have EVER worked so fast in my life. I was even able to rush to the print shop to have it printed on A4 paper, so yay!

I'm looking forward to giving copies to Sym and Sombra... but yeah. I still don't know how I'm supposed to hand it over to Pharah and Zen. Hopefully there's a designated gift table, or maybe I can beg a staff member to hand it to them. I'm crossing my fingers. >__<;;;

Anyway, I copied default poses and drew Zen, Sombra, Pharah (sorry I know I can't draw hands or feet ;w; ) in some stylized regional traditional costumes. I know I took some liberties in there, and I also know I may have gotten some of pharah's tattoo symbolisms wrong herp pls don't lynch me, history enthusiasts... T__T;;

For the curious, here are the details:

Sombra is wearing a Baro't Saya with a Panuelo and Tapis, and is holding typical streetfood/snacks-on-sticks haha. It's called "kwek-kwek" (orange-battered and deep fried hardboiled quail eggs) and "bananacue" (fried plantains with caramelized sugar).

Zen is wearing a "katipunero" outfit, and sipping juice out of a fresh, opened coconut (if omnics could drink??).

Pharah is in a not-the-usual-red Ifugao outfit, and is holding sunflowers and wearing a traditional headress.

Symmetra dressed as a Maranao princess, dancing the singkil. She is also materializing a "sarimanok" or Bird of Happiness from myths (aka, "lucky chicken" lol).

In the meantime, we plan to line up early tomorrow to get our entry badges so maybe I should actually get some sleep haha
