[Oswald looks mildly amused but mostly confused] Why wouldn't that be ok?

[enigmaster]

No reason. Never mind.

[agoodname]

[. . . .] Okay. [SQUID???? Oswald will remember that]

Bon appetite.

[enigmaster]

Ah... sure... [He... glances at the spoon, but. He might just sip right from the bowl, honestly. Now here's the question. Is it good?]

[agoodname]

[it is quite good, actually. Considering how it was thrown together with minimal ingredients, the combination of the root vegetables and rabbit stock turned out quite well and, to be frank, Oswald is rather proud of it, considering what he had to work with.]

[enigmaster]

[...Yeah, Edward's gonna finish that real quick, then. That's... very good. He kind of forgot food could actually? taste this good? He's enjoying it... a lot.]

[agoodname]

[Oswald looks amused at that, but he's really mostly pleased] Good?

[enigmaster]

[Edward looks up. Snout... definitely a little dirty. But he nods.]

[agoodname]

I'm glad. [there is definitely an urge to reach out and wipe his snout but he won't do that c'mon Oswald focus on your soup]

[enigmaster]

It's very good.

[agoodname]

And now you know how to make it. [he hums] This should last the two of us at least another day if we're careful with it, and then we can used the canned meat to try and make some more.

[enigmaster]

...I guess it was kind of worth the time...

[agoodname]

You guess~? [he smirks, then, teasing]

[enigmaster]

I guess. [r u d e] I haven't really... had anything like this in, um... [...] I don't know, a while.

[agoodname]

A while? [now that's curious] How long is a while?

[enigmaster]

...Long enough that I'm not really sure.

[agoodname]

But you've had it before?

[that's not what he expected--though he keeps his tone light and curious]

[enigmaster]

Something similar, anyway.

[agoodname]

I'm assuming someone made it for you?

[enigmaster]

...Yeah.

[agoodname]

[he props his chin on his hand, going quiet for a moment] .....can I ask what happened to them?

[enigmaster]

Nothing. They should be perfectly fine.

[agoodname]

[.....what the fuck]

...then...where are they?

[enigmaster]

...Does that matter?

[agoodname]

[...]

No, I suppose not. [he hums a bit] I suppose the more important question is why they left in the first place.
