[ attached is a very tacky bathroom mirror selfie of nicky and joe: joe with one arm wrapped around nicky from behind, nicky's arms resting lightly overtop joe's, hands linked, tee shirt bunched between their fingers; joe is leant over nicky's shoulder, kissing his cheek and, even from the side view of his grin smooshed against nicky's cheek, looking just completely besotted, it's honestly gross and they should be stopped. if nicky's cheeks are tinged pink it is clearly because joe accosted him after his shower and he's still overheated. ]

You're gonna have to teach me how to make that one. Seems like all Andy-san ever wants...

[And he's honestly curious at this point.]

Don't worry though I've been feeding her good food, too.

Be careful, she has a bottomless stomach and an appetite that would put a bear coming out of hibernation to shame.

I can give you some of my recipes but even Andy can't only exist upon baklava. [aka he won't let her.]

[ she's gonna find nicky and give him a noogie. then she's gonna eat baklava alone for a week now out of SPITE. ]

Fucking watch me, Nicky.

[ghiro]

I would rather not.

[oiorpata]

You can survive on worse.

[ghiro]

You know where I stand on this.
Just because you can survive on it doesn't mean you should.

[oiorpata]

Sometimes you just don't wanna make a whole meal at 2 in the morning.

[ghiro]

That's why it's important to keep fruit and nuts around.
They didn't just appear, I had to forage for them or run to the market.

So you didn't turn your insides out with the hot cheetos or what passes for two-minute noodles.

[oiorpata]

I know how to forage, Nicky, but the food just arrives in space. It's great.

You know I hate hyper capitalist unnecessary innovation as much as the next person, but the world is a better place with hot cheetos in it.

[ghiro]

Do you? It has been a while. Maybe you forgot?

The only thing in a "hot" cheeto is still somehow just cheeto which is none of the food groups.

[oiorpata]

I'm literally one of the people who taught you how to do it and expand your berry horizons, asshole.

Food groups change all the time. I'll invent one for cheetos if need be.

[ghiro]

did you?
I don't recall.

it's cardboard. you can call them starch, if you must.

[oiorpata]

Well, it wasn't Joe, so that leaves you with two other options.

I'll take it. Starch is good for you.

[ghiro]

Gathering in the wilds, perhaps, you took my skills from ordinary to extraordinary and I thank you for that.

I still won't ever reduce myself to eating a hot cheeto.

[oiorpata]

Finally, the gratitude.

More for me, but I still say you're missing out.

[ghiro]

Missing out, by choice.

[oiorpata]

A bad choice.

[essenceofdeadlybeasts]

[He laughs at that. He could see it.]

I'd like to learn and get better at the deserts, non-Asian food. Could be fun.

Don't worry, I cook a lot of meals and feed them to her. They come in large portions. She'll live just fine.

[ghiro]

You could teach me some of your dishes and I'll teach you some of the dishes she likes and some of my own favorites.

Desserts and meals.

[essenceofdeadlybeasts]

I'd like that.

[a lot more than he expresses out loud, actually.]

You have a deal.
