... s-sorry. I was really just -- I'm trying to apologize.

Yeah? Well... put it into the food you make for us. How's that?

Put it into the food? ... how?

Well, you know! [pokes the center of his chest lightly]

When you cook for someone, and you really want them to like it, it shows. Like that.

[b-blinks a little]

Really?

Sure. I remember feeling like that, anyway.

... that's right. You're the one who remembers how to cook.

Yep. It was a nice memory.

What did you make?

A lot of things. It was a big dinner, and there were a few really picky eaters. Mostly Italian and Japanese.

Italian? Like spaghetti?

Yeah, like spaghetti. That was for Lambo, he wouldn't eat anything else.

[small nod]

I remember making that for Yuuko-san.

Some of the family had some pretty ridiculous orders, but it was fun that way. Plus better for knowing how to cook.

Is Yuuko-san a friend of yours?

R-ridiculous orders...

Not at all. I'm her servant.

Well, Squalo wanted tuna, just plain, on top of... Oh, you're a servant? I guess this is pretty normal for you.

Depressingly so. ... I think it's just a part-time job, because I remember school too. But I'm definitely a servant.

Didn't like your job, huh?

She asks for all sorts of ridiculous things! A-and she got me on that group date that nearly ended with me getting eaten, and she's a terrible drunkard!

Eaten?

A lot of things want to eat me.

That's right, you taste good to things that aren't human... is it because of magic?

It's in my blood, somehow. I don't know how it works, but I can't help it.

You definitely just seem like an ordinary boy. And your blood tasted completely normal to me.

..............

You tasted it!?
