How cute.

[onlystarabove]

What's so cute?

[ineuphony]

You baking. How come you never baked with me when we played "House"? You always went to work and came home to read the paper.

[onlystarabove]

When I get hungry, I have to make my own food. So I better know how to do that kind of thing.

[ineuphony]

Can I try one of your cakes next time?

[onlystarabove]

Yeah, sure! If you can get it before I eat it all.

[ineuphony]

What? You're not going to save me a piece?

[onlystarabove]

I don't make any guarantees.

[ineuphony]

( poooouuuuts. )

[onlystarabove]

You're just going to have to be quick!

[ineuphony]

Then remind me to not give you any of my cooked meals.

[onlystarabove]

You're just mad because you know I'll be there. Try getting on my level.

[ineuphony]

I rather not.

[onlystarabove]

Because you know you'd flop back on your ass.

[ineuphony]

Why did I come over?

[onlystarabove]

You like talking like this. Otherwise, it wouldn't keep happening.

[ineuphony]

I'm probably crazy.

[onlystarabove]

I'm not going to argue that!!

[ineuphony]

( finally exposing the topic after talking about nothing this entire time. )

... I'm worried about Tsugumi.

[onlystarabove]

What about exactly?

[ineuphony]

She was one of the victims from the murder incident. And I just... -- I'm just angry at myself for not protecting her like I promise I would. I'm doing my best to be there for her now, but I want to do more. But I don't know what to do.

[onlystarabove]

I've got a good answer for that!

[ineuphony]

What's that?

[onlystarabove]

Train with me and you'll never have to worry about that again.

[ineuphony]

( she stares at him. )

I need training from you?
