Crossover: Slacking Off Really Does Get You Good Food!

If you do the things other people expect of you as well as you can, you'll already be ahead of most people.

But when the thing you most want to do doesn't turn out the way you hoped, all you're left with is pain and struggle.

She had no talent at all for the thing she loved most.

"That's why I really like you, Soma! Marry me in the future!"

Kobayashi Jin still had grains of rice stuck to her mouth. Grinning, she looked at Yukihira Soma, her eyes sparkling.

"Jin-nee, I'm only in sixth grade. What are you talking about?" Yukihira Soma exclaimed, his eyes like little dots as a wisp of smoke rose above his head.

Yukihira Joichiro heard them and gleefully fanned the flames. "Oh, that sounds pretty good to me! Kobayashi Nana's shop could use someone to help run it. Soma, when you grow up, marry into Jin's family and become Kobayashi Soma!"

"Dad! What about our shop?" Even as he spoke, he couldn't help sneaking a glance at Kobayashi Jin.

Yukihira Joichiro flashed his bright white teeth, put an arm around his wife, who happened to be standing nearby, and replied smugly, "I've got a wife. My wife and I are all I need. What about you?"

Soma: Dad, are you nuts?

Yukihira Tamako: (Mysteriously dragged into this) ?

#Are the Elite Ten all obsessed with marrying into their partners' families?#

#I've got a wife. What about you? (Are you nuts!)#

#No means no! Yukihira Soma, you're going to be my wife sooner or later!#

Notes:

1. Pairing with Yukihira Soma, older woman-younger man romance. She's one year older, and they grew up together.

2. Contains original additions. The author isn't a cooking expert, but has done research and will credit sources. I'll do my best to keep everyone in character.

3. Soma is so handsome, Soma is so handsome, Soma is so handsome, Soma is so handsome (please don't make this a hair salon)...

4. Mainly Food Wars!, with some other series mixed in, featuring quite a lot of everyday life, such as Cardcaptor Sakura, Detective Conan, and Katekyo Hitman Reborn. Since the main focus is a food series, there won't be any world-saving plotlines.

Core theme: Live your own life honestly and make the most of it
