While she waited for dinner to roll around, Rogue's thoughts drifted along the same line as Todd's. It wouldn't surprise her if the queen wanted him with her that night, or any of the others in the near future, since she'd been so long without companionship. At the same time, she could understand if the queen preferred to remain alone, as she might have grown used to being that way. Trying to guess which one it would be would just drive Rogue crazy though, so she passed the time by perusing one of the many books stored in the hidden shelves - it was good to practice her Wraith reading skills.
She should have expected that the queen would want to see the crew in the kitchen, but it took Rogue by surprise to look up from the island counter and see the transformed woman standing there with Todd. The change was nothing short of breathtaking, and it took Rogue a moment to snap out of it enough to incline her head in respect as she'd seen the others do.
A bubbling behind her had Rogue turning quickly and reaching around the wraith at the stove to move the deep pan full of oil to a different burner. "You have to watch the temperature closely when dealing with oil," she advised the crew member as she adjusted the temperature. "If it overheats, it'll bubble like it was starting to and can overflow and catch fire. It also changes the taste of the oil, and since we're frying things, that would kind of ruin dinner."
The other wraith at the island who had been chopping and breading vegetables and chicken paused in their work to listen to Rogue's instruction before again resuming their tasks.
