This is Evangeline! Sorry, I'm a little busy right now, but leave a message and I'll get back to you as soon as I can!
Oh, right. Seafood, baby corn, paprika substitute.
[In it goes!]
[In it goes!]
[Stir stir!]
Thanks, Neechan! ♪ I learned this one off a manga back home. I've always wanted to do that.

It smells really good! -Next time I'll have to roast you something, though, so I can show off a little.
Really? Cool! I can't wait ♪
[Mecchan and Hina make excited noises. Rinku continues stirring things until the food comes to a boil, and then she takes it off and puts in the broccoli and yams.]
Then back on the fire... I promise it's almost done!

I can be patient! Promise.
[Does she seem like someone who wants instant food...]

[Well, someone does, judging by Hina's hungry squeaking in the background. Mecchan is still holding onto her, doing his older-sibling best to prevent her from taking off to go try and bite a carnivorous maple mouse or something.]
I know! I just sometimes get hungry and wonder why cooking takes so long. But I guess that's what happens when you cook when you're hungry.

Aren't you hungry a lot, though?
[She sees her snacking a lot throughout the day...]
[She sees her snacking a lot throughout the day...]
Oh... yeah, that's true, huh.
[Not denying how she's constantly eating...]
Either way, it is kinda fun to learn to make your own stuff! I'm trying to do it more and not just get us all instant or kibble. I mean, these two like the kibble, but they like human food better... and Hina-chan likes blood, it's a lot better now that I listened to Eve-san and started asking for it at the meat department. Even if it is kinda awkward.

I think that's really admirable. I should take after your example, I'm really not used to cooking and I probably order pizza way too much.
[Rinku aspirational.]
[Rinku aspirational.]
Wow, really? I'm just trying to look after everyone in the house, that's all! But thanks, Neechan!
[Rinku rubs her face on Evangeline and stirs the pan. After a bit, it starts to smell really good, and she puts down the spoon and pulls out some spice shakers.]
Okay! Salt, pepper, parsley... [shake shake stir] I think it's ready! Everyone get your plates, okay?

[Plate and fork and napkin ready!]
Thank you for the meal!
Thank you for the meal!
Thank you, Neechan!
[Rinku takes the food off the flame and portions it out for everyone. The leftovers are covered up so wildlife don't approach and set aside.]
How do you like it? I've made it on the trail before, but only a couple times.
[Mecchan is using a fork with two hands and hesitating to eat the food until it cools off. Hina just shoves her face into the plate.]

[Kind of hard to use utensils with just wings and no hands, huh... Evangeline blows on her food, then takes a bite.]
-It's really good! I love this.
[Happily chowing down!!]
-It's really good! I love this.

[Happy Rinku noises! She sparkles even more than usual and takes a bite.]
Thank you, Neechan! I'm gonna keep working hard to cook more and not just eat stuff from the convenience store. Maybe you can come over and see us more often then, too!

I'd love to visit more. You don't have to cook for me to bribe me to come over, you know.
Then let's definitely have more visits! I bet Mary-chan'd be really happy to see you more, too. You're really good with kids.
[She pets Mecchan and Hina, who nod in agreement between bites.]
[She pets Mecchan and Hina, who nod in agreement between bites.]
Oh, you think so? I do like working with them, but I wasn't sure if I was very good with them or not...
I think so! You're really patient and you can always tell what someone wants. At least better than I can.
Experience with working with entities that can't use human language helps a lot with that.
[Mecchan makes happy noises and finally takes a bite of his food.]
These two agree! They really like you. I think you were one of the first people Mecchan stopped being scared of.

I still don't really understand that. I'm pretty scary compared to a lot of people?
No way, you're not scary at all!
[Mecchan shakes his head, and Hina squeaks between bites of food.]
The place you're from is scary, but that doesn't mean you are. You're always really nice and trying to help.

[She appreciates the sentiment, but...]
You remember that time I freaked out really badly because I attacked Porty's mind, right?
You remember that time I freaked out really badly because I attacked Porty's mind, right?
Yeah.
[It's hard to forget, even if she'd like to.]
So... because of that kind of thing, you're scary to yourself?
[It's hard to forget, even if she'd like to.]
So... because of that kind of thing, you're scary to yourself?
Yeah. I can hurt people without realizing that what I'm doing is bad.
[She's tried to accept that she couldn't have known better, that everybody hurts people sometimes... But not everybody can attack people's minds.]
