[ Continued from here. ]

[ It is. ;_; And with rabbit ears! ]

[ Nope, that's too embarrassing. ] Come on, you're not much of a cat if you don't eat fish or meow...

I-I wasn't before I started smelling this stuff. [She huffs a bit, and then--because she has terrible manners forever--takes a spoonful as soon as he sets it down for her.]

[blackshadow]

[ Hunger confirmed. He doesn't really mind that she goes at it the minute it's in front of her; it's just sort of funny. He leaves to get his own bowl, saying: ] You can have a second bowl if the smell keeps getting to you.

[negativegate]

[Whatever her reply is, it just comes out garbled around the soup she shoved in her mouth. Which she is thoroughly enjoying, hungry or not!]

[blackshadow]

[ When she can't stop eating it, he assumes it must taste delicious! It doesn't even look as goopy and muddy as before, but more like normal soup that's sorta thick but not quite.

Yeah, he just wants to eat it, too. He fills his bowl and returns to his chair to eat it as neatly as Rita is. ]

[negativegate]

[It's so...so good. Rita has to stop just because it's still pretty hot, but she blows on it.] This is definitely an improvement.

[blackshadow]

[ Tyr has to take small bites...unfortunately. But the praise makes up for it. ] Thanks. I had to make it better after Yuri called it "mud soup". [ Even if it was originally kiss-worthy. ]

[negativegate]

[Aw, Tyr. Rita snorts at that and replies before she shovels in another spoonful.] If he called my soup mud, I would've made him eat some real dirt.

[blackshadow]

I should've done that in hindsight... It's a little late for revenge now, though. [ Tyr just continues to eat slowly. Delicious soup that's not quite Gremio-tier. ]

[negativegate]

Well, he's not getting any of this one. I guess that's good enough. [Sluuuuurp. It's Gremio-tier enough for Rita!]

[blackshadow]

[ Tyr-tier is good enough!? He scoffs. ] Yeah, there's not a chance... I'd rather he cooked if he came here anyway...

[negativegate]

[Absolutely. ♥] So you don't have to bother?

[blackshadow]

[ He's really glad~♥ Shaking his head: ] Because he cooks well...

[negativegate]

[So is she, when he cooks for her~] Well, yeah, but it's not like you don't.

[blackshadow]

[ He'd cook for her all the time if they lived together~ ] ... Do you really like this? [ Which might be a dumb question. He just doesn't think he's as good as Yuri. ]

[negativegate]

[Kyaa~ The best housewife. ;v;] Huh? You need to ask? [She gives him a quizzical look, since she's already drained half the bowl.]

[blackshadow]

[ A-and Rita works to support them both!? ;v; ] I just want to make sure. Yuri and I aren't really on the same level... [ ...But he's really glad she likes his soup. He almost offers to give her more right away. ]

[negativegate]

[Yes! She brings home the money for them! (And Tyr's no longer the sugar daddy?!)] Just what makes you think that? You haven't had a competition or anything, have you? [Sluuuuurp. She'd so have seconds...if this didn't fill her right up.]

[blackshadow]

[ And they have a happy, simple life~ (Maybe he spoils her with a side job!!) ]

No, but I'm pretty sure he's better... He's probably done more cooking than I have. [ Riou and the others still need to have some anyway... But he's thinking less about that and more about how Rita likes his cooking. ]

[negativegate]

[With several kitties~ (As a gambler!!)]

Maybe. But I bet he can't make this. [She definitely, definitely likes it, and eats some more.]

[blackshadow]

[ Their babies~! Who they also spoil. (A really, really good one!) ]

[ Heee. ] You're right. This is almost my special dish now... [ Because he's messed with it so much! ] He couldn't make it if he wanted to.

[negativegate]

[Eee, yes! The most spoiled babies. ;v; (The best ever! Except against Toph.)]

Just make sure you hide the recipe from him. [And...oh, she's almost done. She picks up the bowl and slurps the rest of the broth directly from it. Omnom~]

[Also, going to bed now! Good night~♥]

[blackshadow]

[ They sleep with them as blankets~ (Toph is a dirty cheater!!) ]

There's no need to; I'm not using the original recipe anymore. [ Which is to say he wings it every time. Seeing her slurp up the rest, he has to offer- ] Do you want some more?

[ While his spoon just sort of scrapes the bottom of the bowl... ]

[ Okay! Good night~! ]

[negativegate]

[The cutest, fluffy blankets~ (He'll never beat her because of it-!)]

[Rather than thinking he always wings it, she just assumes that he's made a new recipe--he did say he was improving the original.] Thanks, but...I can't eat another bite.

[Sooo stuffed. She stretches her arms above her head and leans back in her chair.]

[Thanks! And morning~]

[blackshadow]

[ Happiest blankets~♥ (But he hopes he does!!) ]

[ Someday he'll write it down. Someday. ] It really filled you up, huh? [ He's so pleased! That's what stew should do! He doesn't think he'd be able to have anymore, either.

...And since he lost the bet, he stands up and takes their bowls over to the sink. ]

[ Good morning! ♥ ]

[negativegate]

[With the happiest snugglers~ (He holds out with that hope!!)]

[One day, if he needs to...] Uh-huh... [And Rita feels full and lazy now, watching him with a yawn as he heads to the sink. She finished her hot chocolate--and then pushes out her chair to follow him.]

[And afternoon! |D]
