I'm Still Mad They Got Interrupted - Tumblr Posts

Halt can't cook.

In chapter 28 of book 10 Halt let's Will cook because 'he likes doing it' but Will points out that 'it's known that can Halt burn water.' He is then gonna tell us some examples but gets interrupted.

But how bad is Halt at cooking for Will to say this?

A few possibilities:

He had a flame in the pan enough times for Will to not look up anymore when there was a sudden flash of warmth and light in the kitchen for less then five seconds.

When it wasn't one of the few meals Halt can cook without burning it was either half burnt or Will was sent to town to buy them a meal.

The vegetables are either undercooked or burned. No inbetween.

Ones a particularly sleep deprived Halt had tried to boil steak. He didn't even notice till Will pointed it out and told him to go to bed.

Horace's always complaining to him that they won't get a single decently cooked meal if he has to seperate from them at missions.

Will eventually went to Jenny to ask for some cooking lessons. When he started to cook every night neither of them spoke of it.
