Oh my gosh, I love it! And yeah, adorable-yet-clueless John in the grocery store, faking his way through the advice on the strength of confidence and charm alone :) Which makes me ask... does John know how to make lava cakes?? Because suddenly, I got this image of some culinary god/goddess making them for John on their first date. And they didn't really work out, but John almost considered dating them a second time just because, my god, molten chocolate lava cake! It is to die. And now, after Rodney drags John into the kitchen, and the guests are making polite excuses to leave, and John's acting like of course he knows what he's doing, and giving Rodney directions, when really he's trying to remember what the heck the guy/girl was doing when he watched him/her make them. Unfortunately, he was mostly watching their ass as they bent over the bowl on the counter, and he's kind of having the same problem now, so the chances of the cakes turning out is really slim....
...but of course, with John's luck? They come out perfectly, and Rodney never knows how close he came to spontaneous combustion oven fires or burnt lava cakes.
(Yeah, please feel free to ignore my random tangents - it's like fanfic for fanfic! Only without the work, and I don't worry about silly things like "too much italics" or cohesive plots) When do I get to see the real version?
