okay one day was bad enough
two days was ugly
and by now this is just torture

i cant believe im asking this but is there any way for a girl to get her appetite back

[Yes, this is now hell for Kyouko. She's got a little bit of a stomach bug, and hasn't been able to eat as much as she'd like the last couple days.]

Got it. Be there in 30.

[And true to his word, 28 minutes later he has a closed tupperware full of broth and is knocking on her door. Knock knock.]

Action

[gorges]

[She shouldn't have been surprised that he was right on time. He just seemed like that sort of person, after all.

So she opens the door, not even have bothered to brush her hair or anything (say hello to bedhead, Minato!), and looking altogether...not that healthy.]

Let's try this thing. Is it any good?

[Assuming that he tasted it before giving it to her, yes?]

Action

[messianic]

[wow kyouko you look awful.

Not that he says that. He knows better.

Yeah he just offers it to her.]

It should be fine. Hopefully it'll help a little bit.

[OF COURSE HE DID-- and it is fine. Nothing ~magical~ but he can cook. Protag n all.]

Action

[gorges]

[She takes it, and eyes him a little.]

It'd better. I'm tired of not eating anything.

[And she's wandering off to sit down with her broth. You can follow if you want, Minato, she won't care. Or you could leave if you're worried about catching her sick.]

Action

[messianic]

[Yep, following. He doesn't care if he catches her sick.

It's more important that he makes sure she's okay.

So yep following and quietly shutting the door behind them.]

Action

[gorges]

[She flops on the couch with the broth, putting her feet up before looking back at Minato.]

So's broth all ya can do? [She's just curious, warming her hands with the container he had brought it in, considering it a little bit.] It smells good, at least.

Action

[messianic]

[Just an easy shrug.]

I cook whatever's on the menu. So long as it's not too complicated, I think I can do it.

[...hm.]

Do you need a spoon?

Action

[gorges]

Better than some people. They make some pretty nasty stuff out there.

[...Kyouko? Manners? What are you talking about, silly Minato?]

I got it. Not that hard to just drink if it's broth.

[As if to prove this, she's opening the container and taking a sip.

Yes. Manners right here.]

Action

[messianic]

One of my friends is like that. She just...tried to change the recipe too much.

[...oh. well that works.]

That's good then. Do you need anything else, Kyouko-san?

Action

[gorges]

Remind me not to eat what she cooks.

[Yup.]

Nah, I think I'm good. [If this works, anyway.] It's good though. Thanks.

Action

[messianic]

I'll be sure to.

[Pfff. He just bows his head politely.]

It was my pleasure. I hope you feel better soon.

[And he's just...going to dismiss himself quietly.

Ciao.]

Action

[gorges]

I hope so too.

[Bye, Minato. If she gets sick from this, you'll never hear the end of it--

I mean. Thank you. c:]
