[ Wow, we are really here to feast. ]

... Baby food? [ He's so sorry. ] Eat as much as you want, Lila.

[ Because you're back. ]

[wtfox]

Applesauce and these weird puff things? Like, snacks. And they weren't even good snacks.

[she is getting all the italian food she can find in this cafeteria]

...it's really, really good to be back.

[amain]

... It is. The dorm has been.

[ Lonely. And Mabel always seems to be on the brink of breaking. I don't know if anything I did helped there. We all know Nier made things worse. ]

I actually learned how to cook some pasta while you were gone.

[wtfox]

[mabel shouldn't have been in this school in the first place...

lila is judging the story or the voice or whoever for bringing her here, tbh]

Oh, did you? Maybe we could make dinner for everyone, then! I know a few recipes from watching my mom cook when I was younger.

[amain]

... Yeah. I was learning for when you came back.

[ Rather than making the same stew and food. ]

We should cook for everyone.

[wtfox]

Really?

[oh... she looks surprised by that, but then she smiles]

...let's do it, then! We can surprise them.

[amain]

All right. We can do that after you get enough in your stomach.

[ He laughs. ]

Also, that outfit earlier...

[wtfox]

What about it?

[she says, like it's totally normal to run around in an animal-themed superhero getup



to be fair, it is in her canon.]

[amain]

Your superhero outfit?

[wtfox]

[she giggles]

That's right! Keep it a secret when we're on our way out, okay? No one from my world can know. Secret identities and all that.

[amain]

Your secret is safe with me. I wouldn't want to get in the way of all the superhero things you do.

So what recipe did you want to start?

[wtfox]

Thanks!

[hmm... she considers that.]

There are some recipes that are easier than others... since we'll have to use whatever's in the kitchen here, we might as well go with the simpler ones. How do you feel about black pepper?

[amain]

I personally like black pepper.

[ IMAGINE NOT SEASONING YOUR FOOD A BIT also black pepper is a good flavor. ]

[wtfox]

Then I know exactly what we should make.

[she then proceeds to explain the recipe but i refuse to reword it]

It's a classic! It's really tasty, and really easy to do.

[amain]

... It sounds really good despite being simple.

[ He nods, but they must eat their food first. ]

I learned how to make bolognese, carbonara, and... Ragu?

[wtfox]

It is!

[she grins and eats some of her food. better to eat now so she's not tempted to make Too Many Things for dinner just because she's hungry...]

Did you learn how to make them out of a cookbook? Or did someone teach you? Kon's a pretty good cook...

[amain]

From a cookbook... Since we never got to visit the library together.

[ Wow. Feels bad. But it's fine. Lila is here and they are eating some nice things. I can't believe to say that Nier got less food than Lila. ]

[wtfox]

[aww. that does feel bad.]

I want to try one of the recipes you learned, then!

[amain]

[ it is ok ]

Let me warn you that it might not be the most authentic.

[ I've never been to Italy. OBVIOUSLY. ]

[wtfox]

That's okay. I'm used to eating things that aren't authentic.

[as she's shoveling some spaghetti into her mouth - this isn't authentic at all, but it's still better than applesauce.]

[amain]

... That sounds so sad, Lila, like you lost all hope.

[ He's watching her just stuff herself as he himself eats like a bird. ]

[wtfox]

It's hard to find good Italian food outside of Italy. French food is pretty decent, too, but it just doesn't measure up to the real stuff.

[amain]

I haven't actually looked up French food.

[wtfox]

It's okay. Italian food is better!

[amain]

Is this... Bias?
