[ at dusk nearby the apartments tonight, there is a small stall, lit up by lanterns outside an in behind the curtains covering the inside. a delicious smell comes off of it, and the coast seems to be clear around the stall. as the sun sets further, the light inside illuminates the shape of a small person... or creature, judging by the tall ears on top of its head.

care to take a peek inside? ]

[He growls and snatches up his chopsticks. He's not great with them, so he has to fiddle a bit to fit his hand into the unfamiliar poise for them. Then he's got it, and he picks up a bit of the aburaage.]

Yeah, well you're kinda...

[The smell is too good. He takes a bite, and his eyes go wide.]

... an... amazing cook?

[jigoku_onryo]

Of course.

[ she nods, clearly seeming pleased, if not also a bit crafty. ]

[triggeringbiggering]

[He elbows Garry.]

Isn't this good?

[fraternal]

Mmm? [ his mouth is full... ]

Mm-hmm!

[triggeringbiggering]

[He scruffs up the back of Garry's hair then hunkers down over his own bowl. It's been a long time since he's enjoyed any food here. It's hard to even remember to chew when he needs to!

[jigoku_onryo]

[ a giggle - but she drops the teasing for now, and goes back to her prepping and cooking. ]

[fraternal]

[ Garry just smiles shyly and fixes his hair with one hand, glancing over at how Once-ler's holding his chopsticks... ]

Here, hold it more like this, Once'- [ he holds up his own chopsticks. ]

[triggeringbiggering]

Huh? [He blinks in surprise, then adjusts his grip to the way Garry is holding his.] Like that?

[fraternal]

Yeah, and you move the top finger, not the bottom.

[ he shows him by flexing the chopsticks




and stealing one of his noodles. ]

[triggeringbiggering]

Hey! Nuh-uh, just because you're eating them too fast!

[He attempts to swipe one of Garry's.]

[fraternal]

But they're so good...! [ he's finally smiling again though, and waves his hand at the Kitsune, letting Once-ler take as many as he wants. ]

Could we get too more bowls? I don't have much money, but I can give you some sweets?

[jigoku_onryo]

Sweets? Dango? Mochi?

[ she leans forward, looking bright-eyed and interested. ]

[fraternal]

Actually- they're just cookies... chocolate chip. Mika baked them.

[jigoku_onryo]

One big bowl, you can share. Very romantic.

[triggeringbiggering]

That works for me!

[Mmm, more udon!!]

[fraternal]

[ SPUTTER. ONCE-LER YOU FORGOT THE SECOND PART???

but he'll hand over the chocolate chip cookies and munch on his aburaage. ]

[triggeringbiggering]

[Well hey good food is good! It's been a while since he's been able to enjoy it.]

Can't wait.

[jigoku_onryo]

[ humming a song, she'll set to work then - and pulls out a huge bowl liek she said she would. ]

[triggeringbiggering]

[He watches her eagerly.]

[jigoku_onryo]

[ are those some fish cakes she's slipping in? yes she is.

after a few minutes she'll spoon in the broth with her ladle and hand it over with two paws. ]

[fraternal]

Thank you, it looks amazing.

[triggeringbiggering]

And how! [He takes the bowl off of her and puts it between him and Garry, though admittedly more towards himself.]

[fraternal]

[ and Garry will slowly tug it closer to him... ]

Those were my cookies you know-

[triggeringbiggering]

I eat more than you do! [He grins.]

[fraternal]

And it all just goes to those legs...
