[Aaaah... every time his cooking is praised by Otome, he has to fight the urge to preen. This time, his lips do quirk into the vaguest of smiles before he catches himself, coughing and looking away.

A-ahem...]

...Good. I suppose it is passable then.

[...... .As for Otome--]

Have you not eaten today? You seem especially ravenous.

[mombastic]

[ ... why you gotta make her sound so uncouth-- ]

I haven't, no... I got a call before I had breakfast, and then by the time I'd finished with that, it was already well past the time for that.

[discard]

[He's a polite child that way.]

... Hm. [He frowns to himself a little at that, before he just huffs vaguely, taking one of the sandwiches for himself.] Then take the rest of this with you when you go.

If nothing else, it should be easy enough to carry along with you when you are called.

[EAT FOOD, MOM]

[mombastic]

... Are you sure? I think taking even just a little would be enough.

[ He did kind of make a lot?? ]

[discard]

Just take it.

[Hmph!!!]

It is not as though I need it, so just keep it to make use of it yourself later.

[mombastic]

Mm... all right, then. Thank you very much, Leon.

[ Yeah, this is likely going to help. ]

[discard]

[If it helps... that makes him happy.]

It is hardly as though I did it for you. It's simply convenient for me to not have to carry all of this back with me.

[Sometimes, he is simply classic tsun.]

[mombastic]

All the same, that convenience is helping me out a lot. So thank you!

[ UNDETERRED. ]

[discard]

[UGH...........]

Then... I suppose if nothing else, consider it an even exchange for your assistance in other ways.

[mombastic]

... I think I could accept that. I haven't done all that much, though.

[ Really, Leon's helped her more than anything... ]

[discard]

[He blinks at that, almost...perplexed.]

... You do not see yourself very clearly, do you?

[mombastic]

... Eh?

[ She can see perfectly fine?? ]

[discard]

[Does she really not see how much she's done for him? Maybe that's why she never asks for anything in return.]

... Never mind it. It was just an observation. Even so, accept that I am telling the truth--you don't owe me anything.

[mombastic]

[ Look, this is what happens when you put all of your attention on other people. ]

All the same... well no, we'll just go in circles at this rate. Is the tea okay?

[discard]

Yes, it's acceptable.

[He likes it.

But.

He can't say that, obviously.]

This is the sort of tea I am more used to.

[mombastic]

Oh! If I'd known that earlier, I could have stocked more of it... I'm glad to hear it, though.

[ she'll be ready! ]

[discard]

It isn't as though you have to go to any particular trouble for my sake.

[Calm down, mom!!!]

It is just what I was used to being served at the manor.

[mombastic]

I see... but if you like it, I don't have a problem with keeping it on hand.

[ It's a little healthier than sweets. ]

[discard]

... If you want.

[He certainly won't stop her.]

It is not as though the other teas you served were so terrible either.

[mombastic]

I'm glad to hear that! All the same, it's nice to have your preferences, isn't it?

[ It's gonna happen. ]

[discard]

I suppose.

[Yes, yes it is.]

Stahn seems obsessed with trying new things here, but I fail to see what is wrong with the familiar.

[Leon's just picky.]

[mombastic]

Personally, I'd recommend a mixture of both. Familiarity for the security, and the unknown for a new sort of excitement.

[discard]

Hmph. That is just like you.

[A perfect happy medium compromise.]

Regardless, I won't be changing my opinion.

[mombastic]

No? Well, that's up to you... but there really are some amazing things out there I think you'd like.

[discard]

It isn't as though finding new things to taste is a priority for me.

[Seeing as how he's dead and all.]
