[ lol ]

[ she actually does laugh a little, quiet and light ]

You don't need to tell me that. [ she is

very very very very very very used to what places like this do to clothes ]

But wait, you're making a kitchen for us? I hadn't heard! — and I'll give the mask to you, don't worry.

[othellovonryan]

Uriel made a deal for it. She's going to help me finish up Robin's Egg's kitchen and then I'm going to do work on yours. It'll be a few days before I can start the work.

Though if you have any requests, sooner is better than later. Easier if I can work it into the design ahead of time.

[bluediligence]

Oh, uhm ...

What kind of requests?

[othellovonryan]

For stuff inside the kitchen.

...not appliances beyond a stove and oven, which I'm already accounting for. Those are fairly simple to make with the resources at hand. Appliances are a whole other thing and take a considerable more effort. That is a lot of varied tools I have to fabricate and that drains.

But certain cabinetry, or specialized spice racks or things like that.

[bluediligence]

Then ...

[ thinks ]

[ thinks even harder ]

[ ... well, there's only one thing she could ask for, isn't there ]

If it's not too much to ask, somewhere comfortable where we can sit together as a team?

[othellovonryan]

Kitchen dining room. Noted. That's mostly empty space, just requires more flooring.

[bluediligence]

Thank you!

A kitchen doesn't feel complete without somewhere to be together with people ... I think.

[othellovonryan]

[He nods.] The whole reason I wanted to build one was to allow for more ease of making food and eating together.

[bluediligence]

Mm. It's very kind of you; I really can't thank you enough.

Then all we'll need is a hot chocolate ruin!

[othellovonryan]

I mean, I am getting paid. [He's not sure HOW exactly, but he's getting paid. Even his generosity has limits.]

[Its probably not gonna be very expensive though.]

Oh, if only. Its been far too long since I had hot chocolate in this cold.

[bluediligence]

So? That doesn't make it, or you, any less kind.

[ bounces a lil on the balls of her feet, wings fluffing ]

One day, Hamato-san. One day there will be hot chocolate, even if I have to use a token to get it.

[othellovonryan]

[Oh.]

[She's insistent.]

Well.

There's nothing wrong with kindness. [He may be blushing as he turns to the fire to make sure its dying down.]

A noble goal, truly.

[bluediligence]

You're right! There isn't. [ except sometimes - no, shh. ]

[ it's worth it. ]

If I manage to get my hands on some, you'll be the first to know.

[othellovonryan]

Of course I'm right. I'm rarely not.

[Never mind he's still embarrassed being praised for kindness. Most people don't pick up on it, okay!]

I appreciate it.

[bluediligence]

Humble, too. [ it's good humoured, though. ]

[ egoes can be cute sometimes ]

[othellovonryan]

Bah, humble is for those who can't back up their words. I have never not delivered on my statements.

[bluediligence]

[ okay, no, now she's giggling ]

Never ever ever?

[othellovonryan]

Never ever ever ever.

[bluediligence]

Waaaaah, so impressive!

[othellovonryan]

I know. I'm amazing.

[bluediligence]

[ pfffffff - ]

And cute!

[othellovonryan]

[ewjaioejwaoiejw]

[He squawks.]

[Praise hits him hard, but what hits harder is PRAISE HE DOES NOT EXPECT TO GET??????]

[bluediligence]

[ slkdaljd AHAHA, covers her mouth in a desperate bid to stifle yet more giggles ]

Sorry, I'm sorry! It's just — you really are, you know?

[othellovonryan]

O-of course I am!

I'm! A very attractive turtle!

[He is so very flustered.]

[bluediligence]

[ oh god okay no, breathe, korone, do not dissolve into a fit of giggles. do not. no matter how cute and charming this is, do not, ]

You are, and I'm really, really glad I've been able to meet you. That I've got a chance to get to know you.
