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.

[enigmaster]

They didn't, it wasn't anything like that, it-- Look, it doesn't matter.

[agoodname]

[.....wtf. There's a story here, and a more in-depth one.]

....if you say so. [easily. He's not about to press just yet, because this is clearly a sensitive subject]

[enigmaster]

...Anyway, it's just been a while since I had anything like this, that's all. It's good. ...Thanks for teaching me how to make it.

[agoodname]

Of course. It's a good skill to have for winter.

[enigmaster]

Better than waiting out in the snow every night, anyway...

[agoodname]

I would think so. That sounds rather cold. [amused again]

[enigmaster]

It is. It's not fun. Especially when there's nothing around.

[agoodname]

I suppose it makes it feel rather pointless if you can't find anything. Though the rabbit was a very good find.
