Exactly. You can't say something is sicknasty and not back it up. But, you won the bet fair and square.

[ At least he could back up his words. She appreciates it more than she thinks Dave knows. Once he's by her again, she offers the bag to him. ] It's all yours~ Feel free to be as greedy with it as you want, since there's extra in there.

Sweet.

[Pardon him, he's going to snatch it and flash back toward the overturned reel in order to turn it upright again and use it as a makeshift table.

..... the boy might be a little hungry, if the way he's tearing into it and peeking at the contents has anything to say for it.]

You never did tell me what all's in here though.

[ kjxcfg okay then! She will follow him at her own pace, using ice to get over any gaps between buildings. Once she's next to him she will take the containers and explain what's in each. ]

This is just plain white rice. This one is the main dish — strips of beef, various vegetables like potatoes, cabbage, onions, all in a soy sauce broth. Is "broth" the right word? Eh... And technically, the way I ate it back home was with a a raw egg in another dish, and you would dip the meat and vegetables into it before eating.

[chronologistics]

[So here's the thing about Dave Strider.

His most balanced meal probably consisted of BLT sandwiches and milk; at first, when Bro was feeling not-douchey enough to actually make them, and then in those rare times when he got older that the kitchen didn't feel like a health and/or limb hazard. Which, was extremely rare.

So seeing all of this in one place is... not really bizarre, so much as it's just not his usual gig. He pokes around at the rice, and then the beef, the vegetables; the soy sauce smells sharp, and yet his mouth is watering slightly from it. He's had soy sauce before, but this smells, for all intents and purposes, far more fresh than the stuff that came with complimentary Chinese takeout packages.

(As if on cue, his stomach actually growls. Holy shit.

As she explains them, he takes them from her and spreads them out between them. Yes, she may have brought the food for him, but he's not so much of an ass as to eat in front of her.]

So it's like a complicated General Tso's with beef? We're gonna need our fine dining 'sticks, man, can't be mixing up the salad chops with the dinner chops.

[Still, she's going to find that, as he eats, he's only going to eat one thing at a time.]

[copia]

[ Dave will find that the broth is savory yet sweet, thanks to the sugar in it. (Sadly, no mirin — Kaede hasn't been able to miraculously find it in Exsilium yet.) ]

Yep! [ and as if she read his mind: ] You don't have to wait to eat the food, you know. I won't mind if you want to dig into it all now. [ She will pop out a set of chopsticks and a set of disposable utensils. ] I'm not sure which one you use...

[Behind the shades, his eyes flick between the chopstics, and the utensils. After a beat, he reaches for the utensils.

Dave ain't much for getting multicultural.

He's going to start on the beef first.]

2/2

[chronologistics]

Holy shit.

[copia]

[ she hadn't been sure which one he used, if he used them interchangeably, and if so, if he had a preference. either way, she's not offended when he chooses the utensils.

she raises an eyebrow at the outburst. ]

Is that good or bad...?
