[There's no need to press. Sakura continues stirring, and Oda continues watching, but only for a moment before he starts setting out plates, leaving Sakura momentarily unattended.]
I forgot to ask if you like spicy food. What's in the pan now is a milder version. ["Mild" for Odasaku is still hellfire hot, but luckily, this was made by Maruki's standards.]
[There's no judgment in Oda's voice, but neither is there concern. The Dreamers here come from every set of circumstances, and Oda knows plenty of people back in Yokohama who didn't have something as nice as a kitchen. It's just the way things are sometimes.]
Once you learn how to cook, you'll get a lot of use out of that kitchen.

Just a tiny little taste when you're eating it off the stove like that will do. Guess it really is ready...
[A glass of water is calmly filled at the sink and handed to Sakura. After that, Oda will start plating the curry to eat - yes, together.]
Go ahead and sit down. I would like to eat it together if it's all the same to you.
no subject
Yeah. Okay. I'll do that.

It's not a bad place you've got here. I always kind of wondered what one of these mushroom houses looked like inside.
[Okay. Now he can take a little bite. It's as good as curry rice ever is, but goddamn is it mild. Oh well.]

[ this time he will hesitantly scoop up some curry and blow over it. ]
Never had that before.

[ so. he's not worried. he's been alone before. he can manage it again. ]
no subject
But if you ever need help, just give me a call, alright?
no subject
Maybe. I'm bad at the tech stuff too.
[ bad at everything. no one taught him, no one helped him. even in this place, he feels so useless. pathetic. ]
no subject
Let me show you, then. After we eat.
no subject
You don't have to overdo it.

Well, if you'd rather me not, that's alright too.
[Sorry, Sakura. You've now been introduced to the most agreeable person in Somnius.]
no subject
[ who is this guy?? ]
no subject
[Now he's confused.]
What would you like my opinion on? I prefer this curry to be a little spicier, if that's what you mean.
