[Johnny's eyes brighten in surprise. He did not expect steak for dinner, but he is glad they are eating it. A nice juicy steak is becoming increasingly rare in a world dominated by Biotechinca's GMO-laced lab meat. So imagine his surprise to learn that they are having a full-fledged steak dinner tonight. This explains why Johnny is cheering like he just won the fucking lotto.]
Meat is back on the menu, boys!
[He laughs as he chops the spring onions next, after dicing the garlic. Johnny is not a chef, but he does know how to dice things into bite-sized pieces.]
Fuck yes! I was thinking we were going to have ramen tonight, but this much better.
[Once done with the garlic, Johnny moseys his way back to the fridge to look for the good butter, not the cheap ass margarine he usually keeps.]
What’s the occasion, Kai? Or is the occasion just an afterthought?
Could make ramen with the steaks if you want. [ Steak ramen. Kaidan knows that's a thing...somewhere. But might be worth it to keep it traditionally western. Steak and mashed potatoes? Yeah, that'd be simple enough.
One more thing though. ] Just wanted to do something special, no real occasion. [ He reaches for the back of a kitchen drawer, taking out something wrapped in brown paper. ] They sold me this too. [ A brown glass bottle with an image of the historic state of Texas as its logo in gold. ] Since I'm not the one from there you'll have to tell me if this the real deal. [ It's steak sauce. Texas style steak sauce to be precise. ] "The perfect balance between boldness, smokiness, and depth of flavor." That's usually code for garlic, onion and vinegar, plus other stuff.
Ramen steaks? [Despite how odd that sounds, it's really easy to replace a protein with steak. All they have to do is fry up the steaks before putting it in the broth, and bam—ramen steaks.]
Shit, sign me up! That sounds damn good.
[Johnny is all for this zany concept, as evidenced by the eager sparkle in his eyes. As for Kaidan's following words, they catch the rockerboy off guard.]
You just wanted to do this for the hell of it? [To be honest, he's having trouble making sense of Kaidan. Typically, when someone wants something, they do something "nice" for him, such as a favor or whatever. No one in this city ever does anything just for shits and giggles. So, Johnny is a little astonished, especially when Kaidan brings out the fancy steak sauce.]
Holy--IS THAT REAL TEXAN STEAK SAUCE?!
[He virtually snatches the bottle from Kaidan's grasp, quickly unwrapping the plastic around it before removing the cap for a quick taste.]
Mhm! Yep, this is good. [He lets out a hum of approval.] It's probably not the real deal because it contains a little too much vinegar, but you can still taste the spiciness.
