[Hello!

You have options.

1. Welcome to the grocery store. Rajak has officially been saddled with dinner duty - Miss Seira had recently become occupied. However he is currently standing at the vegetable aisle, staring blankly at the cabbages. How do humans tell what's good to eat...? What is he even trying to make....?

2. For some reason, it appears that you've wandered into a territory that is unfamiliar to you. But the problem is that this is very, very familiar to Rajak. Do you experience a vague feeling of being watched or must he make himself known first?

3. I am seriously out of ideas. Throw something at me, please.]

[ . . . okay, he's mildly entertained by her antics but he's still managing to keep a straight face. It's kind of his specialty. Regardless, his patience is rather lasting.

Though if it helps her at all, he will accommodate her further. He starts to lean over to observe the cabbages more closely, thus bringing him down a bit more.]

They at least have the answers to dinner.

[intendance]

[It does help quite a bit, in that she no longer feels like she's staring straight up to try to get a look at him

(wow he's pretty. why are all of these guys so pretty. what.)

THAT ASIDE she just hums cheerily, looking rather delighted by his answer.]

Mmm, well, dinner is about as important as it gets, really! But what are you going to make with cabbage?

[Okay so this little girl may not like her veggies much.]

[kartas]

Cabbage is a fair ingredient for a balanced meal. It will add substance to the dinner.

[ . . . actually that was what he remembered from the days where most humans actually had to grow their crops and didn't even have the technology to keep them cold -

So he's going to double-check. Maybe cabbages have also evolved over time.

He glances to her inquisitively.]

Or is that not correct?

[intendance]

[He sounds so assured! And he's right, so she's just nodding and considering looking back at the cabbage when he suddenly has questions and oh.

That was unexpected. So she blinks, but tilts her head, grinning.]

No, no, I'm pretty sure you have the right of it. I'd just much rather eat something sweet than something green and leafy.

[actual child Morgan]

[kartas]

[ . . . wow, that's actually an idea that he hadn't considered. The children are always coming over to the house, perhaps they would enjoy something more sweet so that they can appreciate that taste as well-

... But it's still important for them to have substance after a long day of their studies...

You can tell that he's considering this deeply.

Hm. He speaks aloud again, thus implying that her input is of worth to him-]

... Perhaps for after dinner.

[intendance]

[.....you really shouldn't give her any inches at all, bro, this is such a terrible idea.

But she does brighten at that, as if she's the one getting the goodies after dinner, and beams up at him (craning her neck some more....)]

What sort of sweets? You're going to make something delicious, right? Ooooh, what about pie or cake or tarts...!

[kartas]

[Excitable human... Nonetheless he merely hums at first, not really giving a confirmation to any of her suggestions-]

That shall be decided after the main course is settled.

[So cabbages. He might actually try to inspect them now.]

[intendance]

[super excitable....though his lack of reaction doesn't seem to daunt her. She does let it go, but merely watches his inspect the cabbages for a brief moment, still grinning.

And then she gets bored. Rocking back and forth on her heels, she just hums.]

Mmm... So what are you looking for, exactly? I mean, they all look pretty much the same to me.

[kartas]

[Honestly, he doesn't mind her presence much at all. He's just not that talkative. Sorry, Morgan.

in complete seriousness:]

The best possible cabbage.

[ONLY THE BEST FOR WHO HE SERVES]

[intendance]

[....... okay but.

She narrows her eyes at that, looking like she's considering that heavily.]

...What makes for the best possible cabbage? I mean, I don't mind helping you look, but I've got no idea what to look for!

[kartas]

Lack of bruising, bugs, crushed leaves.

Strong color, firmness, intact construction.

[ . . . He nods wisely. Certainly those are basic requirements for vegetables.

Sorry Morgan, he doesn't really know but this is his guess.]

[intendance]

[..... and she takes it very seriously, so at least there's that. SHE LOOKS AS DETERMINED AS ANYONE EVER HAS.]

No bruising, bugs or crushed leaves! Good color, firm and intact! Got it!

[And then she's peering at cabbages.

well.

okay.]

[kartas]

[This is probably the most dedicated two people have ever been to cabbages.

Nonetheless, he nods.]

Your assistance is appreciated.

[intendance]

[Yes indeed, it is a super serious task. Morgan doesn't even bother looking up from it.]

Aww, sure! I mean, it's a lot more interesting than watching you stare at cabbages, so I'd consider it a win-win situation!
