You did that? Thank you very much.

I'll make sure I don't leave anything behind. [He eats it quietly without any complaints. Julius seems very happy with the meal. Reika did a good job.]

It's quite exquisite. What did you use?

[p66]

[ It brings her a good sense of relief while she watches him eat. At least it means her cooking is enough for his tastes - with that, she can continue to work on bringing his health back to par again. ]

They have a few condiments from home here, so I tried to apply them. A man named Giorno was kind enough to teach me how to cook with them.

[ Read as: Italian cuisine ]

[viscontree]

I'll have to extend my gratitude to him as well. You're adjusting more quickly than I expected.

Are you going to make meals like this from now on? [It would be a shame if it was just a one time deal. Reika's being too nice to him. He isn't sure how to handle it. ]

[p66]

Of course. Let me know if you have any feedback, I'll try to improve.

[ The kitchen here might be automated but it certainly wouldn't be present when they're going for missions, which means she needs to up her proficiency to be prepared. ]

[viscontree]

It's alright. You don't have to do more.

As long as we have food in our stomachs there is no room for complaints.

[She'll be set when they go on a mission together. Julius knows how to mix herbs but not cook. It'll be good to have her around.]

[p66]

[ Then how has he been feeding himself on missions??? ]

Mutsumi-chan once said that food doesn't just feed the person, it feeds the soul too. I think I'm starting to understand what she means.

[ It just isn't the same when a machine makes your food as compared to a real person. A friend. ]

[viscontree]

Ah yes, she is correct. I feel more than just energized after eating your cooking.

Would you care to teach me how it's done?

[p66]

Of course. I can teach you on days when we don't train.

[ She's willing to do it for him but in the slight chance that the become separated, she wants to make sure he's okay. ]

Giorno-san knows a lot about Italian food. Should I ask him to teach you too?

[viscontree]

I would appreciate that. Cooking is a vital skill to have.

I'm severely lacking in cuisine talent. However, I cannot rely on the aid of others such as yourself forever.

[She can't keep pampering him like this. If they go on a mission and he needs to feed himself, what will he do? One time he just stuck with eating raw plants. It wasn't the best idea, but it got him through the day. Knowing cooking will open up opportunities.]

[p66]

[ It's all good. ]

I'll arrange for it, then! Don't worry about it.

[ There's a lot that he needs help with, and she has to juggle her own obligations in addition to that. ]

[viscontree]

I'll leave it on your hands.

Have you eaten Captain Reika? Surely you must be hungry after all that work.

[He's worried about her too you know. ]

[p66]

[ Right!! About that... ]

I had some soup, I'm good.

[ Miso and rice make a good simple meal. ]

[viscontree]

I'm glad to hear it. Don't overdo it okay?

I know you're trying your best.

[But she does have a tendency to overwork herself.]

[p66]

I won't.

[ She can't push herself if she has to set a good example for him. ]

Let's finish up and head back. Could you help me wash the dishes?

[viscontree]

That's an easy task. Alright.

[Julius rolls up his sleeves and heads for the sink. It's the least he can do in return. He's finished it in a matter of minutes. There weren't a lot of dishes to do anyways.]
