Katsu curry and korokke. Involved but familiar. [ there was definitely more force than was strictly necessary to cut this onion. ]
Oh that would be very good. The cannons function, but they just flash little lights. And ya know, if we could fashion a controller, Tokki might actually fly, because i think the boosters work.
[ this is them coping together. kon cooking and dva talking about her mech. ]
[ he huffs a little, half-hearted laugh, finishing with his dicing and going to dump the onions into a hot pan to sweat them out. ]
We used a keyboard for Yoru's jetpack. Might be able to do the same for your boosters. I've got my toolkit, and the little crab tool... [ rummages... he pulls out the crab friend, holding out the multitool to her. ] Here, just in case.
[ in case she needs it to work on things if he's not around with his toolkit. in case she needs to use it to defend herself. either. ]
[ he sets his knife down, so that he can shift where he's standing - he goes to stand at her knees where she's perched, so that he's close, hands on the counter. ]
Three weeks in and we've spent every Thursday together. I wouldn't ask for a different lock-in buddy. [ and he doesn't want to see anything happening to her, either, considering what they're about to watch lavi go through. ]
he doesn't shy away from the contact - it feels necessary, right now, for them to comfort and seek comfort. someone that they know, that they've come to enjoy the company of, is on the chopping block for a crime that wasn't truly his fault.
and they're only just about to reach the halfway point.

he works on dicing while the curry spices fill the kitchen. ]
Happy to share whenever it's done. Took a while to find decent enough spices.

I'm looking forward to it. It's been a while since I've had a homecooked meal.

[ his love language is food, but he's also desperate for normalcy. for a distraction. ]
... better to have something to do, than just stewing in how fucked up all of this is.
no subject
[ love you kon xoxo ]
That is a very good point, even if stewing in it would be much easier.

AY YO WHERE IS MY BABY YORU. ]

I'm always down for a challenge. [ a flash of a smile, but not one that meets his eyes, either. ]
... yeah. It would be. Not really the type to just sit on my hands, though.
no subject
That would usually be me, but without my mech to work on, I feel lost... this tiny version I got of Tokki can only do so much.
[ first world problems ]

Could always put a jetpack on Tokki, too. [ weak jokes. it's fine. ] Outfit the mech with a tiny gun.
