Lecsó. [with a closer look, it's actually some kind of vegetable stew, maybe??? There's a lot of veggies and some soup broth]

I figured it'd be fairly hearty, since you've been traipsing all over Gotham last night.

[enigmaster]

Oh. Um... Mhm. Thanks. ...Sorry about that, again...

[agoodname]

[he stirs the soup a bit contemplatively] I'm glad you were alright, at least.

[he hums a bit, idly adding some more bell peppers] By the way, is my mother here?

[enigmaster]

Um... [Edward takes a look around. Is she?]

[agoodname]

[not atm. Just the maid again, who arches an eyebrow when he looks over, and asks something in Russian lmao]

[enigmaster]

[Edward... tilts his head a little, before shaking his head. He doesn't... speak Russian, sorry lady.]

She's not here right now.

[agoodname]

[the Russian lady rolls her eyes, but waves him off--and Oswald looks a bit disappointed]

...alright. Will you let me know if she shows up?

[enigmaster]

Of course.

[agoodname]

I appreciate it. [he looks marginally amused, then, for a moment] Well, at least she's not here to critique my cooking.

[enigmaster]

I'm sure you're doing fine.

[agoodname]

Thank you for the vote of confidence. [he sends an amused glance his way] She's very peculiar about her recipes. Can't add too much garlic or pepper or it throws the whole taste off, apparently.

[enigmaster]

Well, my frame of reference is non-existent, so I won't know either way.

[agoodname]

Well, in that case, here's hoping it's to your liking. [he sounds a bit like he's teasing, reaching out to add a bit more paprika]

[enigmaster]

I'm sure it will be... [he's not picky in general, but also, Oswald is making it and that. Counts. for reasons.]

[agoodname]

You say that now. It could be really awful, you know. I don't cook much.

[enigmaster]

Well, my standards are low, so. ...I mean that... in a positive way?

[agoodname]

[alsdkfhsd Oswald makes a choking noise, but it's to cover up a laugh]

Thank you?

[enigmaster]

It was meant to be reassuring, I promise.

[agoodname]

Mn, well it was an attempt, I suppose. [dry, definitely teasing]

[enigmaster]

Talking to people isn't really a strength of mine.

[agoodname]

[at that, he arches an eyebrow] Oh? [...yeah that's a bit dry. he hadn't noticed. it's cute tho

but he shouldn't be thinking that. that's....not the road he should go down.]

[enigmaster]

...I know it's kind of stating the obvious...

[agoodname]

[he chuckles a bit at that] It's part of your charm, Edward. [lightly, easy enough to be interpreted as friendly banter as he pulls the soup off the stove]

[enigmaster]

I have charm? That's news to me.

[agoodname]

Sure. Dry sense of humor, green eyes, freckles--that's more than enough to be charming. [again, lightly, just stating facts, you know, like friends!! friends give each other compliments! ahahahaha]
