the way we have to keep rotating posts because people die

We should have some actual vegetables, I agree...

[ but they're shucking corn ]

Maybe we can sauté some broccoli, but at this point I wouldn't mind just boiling them.

[damp]

It's less effort than shucking corn too.

[ emotionally shucks this corn ]

[obdure]

... We should at least shuck this corn. There's a lot you can make with it and it does taste good.

[ they are still shucking ]

[damp]

[ shucking ]

I can do most of it if you're busy with something else.

[obdure]

All right. [ A sigh. ] Maybe some boiled corn on the side will be good... Or add it into the salad.

[ HE WOILD NEVER JUST ADD THE CORN TO PASTA ]

Only a couple of weeks left now.

[damp]

You must be ready to get back to your life.

[ chop chop chop ]

[obdure]

It feels like it may be difficult, but routine makes it easy to settle back in.

You and Haruka will need to return to your conditioning, too.

[squirt]

That'd be nice.

[ corn lobster pasta with greens... comfort food ]

[obdure]

Is there a type of gravy we are craving?

[ he means pasta sauce ]

A simple Alfredo might be good.

[ non-cream because he's Italian ]

[squirt]

[ thinks about japanese pasta. jacopo promise not to be mad. ]

I can cook the lobster if you want to make sauce.

[ he does not call it gravy. everyone looks very tired today so assigns jacopo the hard part. ]

[obdure]

[ he would be mad... he'd throw a fit if you broke the pasta....... fusion food is delicious and I'm sure if he was very hungry and very lazy he'd just accept Japanese pasta

But he has to be mad about broken pasta. No one can break the pasta because he has to do the sauce now. ]

Sure. I'll have Jonas boil or steam the broccoli. [ Hm. ] Maybe a salad...

[ I love salad ]

[sixam]

[ sets the bowl of salad in front of him like "here. you deal with that." ]

[obdure]

[ thank you this is perfect adds cooked corn into it ]

[sixam]

[ you know what, that's fine. why is there so much corn. ]

[squirt]

[ breaks the pasta immediately. no, he'll leave it alone. no antagonizing today...

watches as the cooking party comes together again. ]

Oh, we're managing.

[obdure]

[ he would kill haru right now

Anyway, the pasta is being added to gravy... Smells great. Who could hate butter noodles? Cracks in salt pepper parsley idk ]

Why wouldn't we manage?

[squirt]

[ it's hard to go wrong with butter noodles and butter lobster. they can cure post-trial woes with saturated fat. ]

I wasn't sure if we'd be able to pull together and do this again.

[ not after siff died. ]

[obdure]

[ yes delicious in moderation ]

I'm sure we would have... A break is sometimes necessary to gather oneself, but eventually we need to press forward.

[ Siffrin's death and my impromptu dinner out irl will not stop us ]

We shouldn't skip dinner, anyway.

[squirt]

[ they can break their swimming diet for saturdays... ]

...You're so insistent. Most people probably sleep after trial.

[ collapse in their emotions or go about their lives. ]

But yeah. We do have to keep going. Three weeks left.

[obdure]

I'd rather sleep on some semblance of a good note than whatever trial usually leaves me feeling.

[ Bed rotting is counterproductive and pathetic to him, but maybe it's more restlessness despite the exhaustion than anything. ]

A blink and it'll be over.
