It looks like chawanmushi.
[ would this tall german guy know what chawanmushi is, she wonders. ]
no subject
[ he's had japanese coworkers but he's only been subjected to the horrors of extra large ramen... cue a curious half-tilt of his head while he sets everything up neatly. ]
I assume that that's Japanese, whatever it is.
no subject
It's egg custard.
no subject
[ prickly... but he means it in a relatively neutral way, because let's be real: he's a nerd that would go ahead and try making chawanmushi... ]
no subject
no subject
but ok, once he's done being a jerk: ] If there's something impairing you, you have a right to speak up. Asking someone to make food is a minor inconvenience for them, at most— but, well.
Still preferable to other outcomes.
no subject
No, it's— it just reminded me of chawanmushi, that's all! I don't want to eat it right now.
[ oh my god. ]
And I do appreciate all of this, so thank you very much!
no subject
There's. Nothing to thank me for.
[ please ignore that weird pause in the middle there... ]
You gave me information when it wasn't required of you. I'm only returning the favor.
no subject
[ awkward laughter goes here.
everything is awkward. ]
no subject
[ ah... but ok, is this nerd rolling up his sleeves and putting pans over a fire? what is this?? what is he doing?!
he's making custard, is what he's doing. it'll only take 15 minutes tops, and he might as well. ]

I was told to learn Braille, since CERES may be watching us at all times.
Communication through something that doesn't use sound or sight might be pertinent here.
no subject
That'll be difficult. Not everyone will have the patience for an alternate form of communication.
[ he almost burns his hand checking the heat of the pot, because he's still as cold as a ghost; thank god he can pokerface with the best of them. ] But if they're monitoring us, the best course of action to take, for now, is to be as mundane as possible.
no subject
... ah, then when would be a good time to do something about it?
no subject
You can start whenever you want. As long as you don't paint a red flag over your head that says "I am suspicious".
no subject
... I wish I could be suspicious, but I definitely can't act that way.
[ she's too honest, which can be a bad thing sometimes. ]
no subject
So you're saying that you're incapable of being suspect for anything.
no subject
More or less. It would be unbecoming of a policewoman to be that way, right?
no subject
[ read: people are capably capable of being terrible in any job. but he seems to realize that arguing this point is going to be largely useless. ]
Though. If you were really a policewoman, you should be more careful about letting strangers into your space.
[ HE FINALLY SAID IT... ]
no subject
But you're not a stranger, are you?
no subject
...This is only the second time we've met. We might as well be.
no subject
[ why else would you bring a bag of groceries here, right?? ]
no subject
...Be that as it may. Exercise more caution next time.
no subject
I'll be sure to take your advise. Thank you, Adolf.
no subject
a long pause on his end here, as he's cleaning everything up and rolling his sleeves back over his burned arms. ]
Don't thank me. And you'll find most of the food in the fridge. Utensils and cups are on the counter.
[ pointing to all of the things he's brought, in order. team mom skills. ]
...If your vision gets worse, speak to a doctor.
no subject
[ so she's optimistic, at least...! also yes, she's so earnest. does it hurt, adolf. does it? ]
