Multifandom/No Fandom: Impromptu Dudes Do the Cooking fest!

[terajk]

In the words of laceblade:

I'm getting really sick of girls always being perfect at cooking in both my fiction and fanfiction.

I do like stories involving cooking and comfort and whatever. Just.

…

WHY IS IT ALWAYS THE GIRLS?!

So, since I'm me, I thought: "Can we have a meme for that?" Basically, this is an extremely informal fest for fic/art/podfic/fanmixes/meta/recs/whatever where dudes do the cooking! Any fandom or original work is welcome. You can also rec canons or fanworks (including self-recs), too. Any rating is welcome, also. The only rule is that, well, dudes are doing the cooking!

Have fun and tell your friends!

...Maybe now that Yuletide's over, I'll go back to my longfic, since its source material is all about a family of homo domesticus militariensis, and the next chapter contains this bit:

There are muffins warming in the oven. "Sorry, they're from the beginning of the week, I forgot to make some new," he says, which means she has just been thoroughly beaten in every measure of domestic capability she knows.

Two Soul Eater fic recs (Death the Kid/Liz/Patti)

Both of these are by nenena:

Seriously Soylent Green

'Any minute now,' Kid said, up to his elbows in suds as he scrubbed at the bowls in the sink. He was most pointedly not looking at any of the clocks in the kitchen.

A Slight Change of Plans

Kid always makes everything twice as difficult for himself, and not even a desperate Liz or a terrifying Patti can stop his latest cooking obsession.

Jelly (One Piece, Nami/Sanji)

Taking Crazy Chances (When We'd Rather Not) (Noah's Arc, Wade/Noah/Ricky)

Ricky's eyes are on not-him, as if looking directly at Wade would trap him forever. Sometimes Wade likes to think it would.

Yakitate!!Japan is a manga about a boy who likes making bread. Then he meets other people who also makes bread. There's competitions, sometimes off-color humor, over-the-top reactions from judges, family drama, and lots of hijinks. The scanlations are still available online.

Writing something new is beyond me at the moment, but I'll note that in my Natsume Yuujinchou OT3 futurefic series, Trouble Shared, it's Tanuma who does the cooking for all of them! My headcanon is that he's good at cooking b/c it was just him & his dad at the temple (& also at least in the anime there are canonical references to his dad having to travel a lot, & presumably Tanuma still eats when this happens...). Also that he grows up to work in restaurants for the same reason.
