I just wanted to extend my gratitude once more for allowing me to stay over the other night. You really didn't have to do that, and I appreciate your kindness more than I can say.
If I can ever do anything for you in return, please don't hesitate to reach out. In particular, I am a pretty good cook, so if you find yourself needing help with the meal service I can be a sous chef any time!
he's so precious /also p5r familiar (i should be on hiatus buuut -- )
It's really not a problem to have you stay over; if you need it, our door is open. I'd rather have you using Eren's room than sleeping outside or some nonsense like that.
You can invite us over for dinner some time when you do get a place, though, how's that for an even trade? :)
JEEEEEEEAN cries and gently pushes you back on hiatus!!!
Yes! Let's do it. Fortunately, a good samaritan has offered me a room in his castle, so my week of deprivation has come to an end! I would love to make dinner for you guys once I'm settled in.
the man the myth the wife that manages them --
[ Jean is, sadly, all too aware that they are now varying degrees of killers playing at house. ]
Oh, getting to stay in a castle? That must be a pretty fancy setup you've scored there, but you seem like the kind of guy that deserves it. If you want any hints for how to impress Eren or Mikasa, just let me know.
no subject
[ Is he calling Akechi his friend now? Well. Apparently. ]
... Actually, yes, hints on how to impress Mikasa-san would be greatly appreciated.
no subject
[ Mikasa did you threaten the nice man already -- ]
She can be intense, but that's because she cares so much. One of her favorite desserts is pudding; Eren likes strawberries, so I like to make dessert that includes both those elements for them. She'll always share some.
no subject
I can tell that her intensity comes from a good place. She and Eren-kun are similar in that way, aren't they?
Thank you! That's good to know. I'll definitely take that into account. I could make strawberry milk pudding...
What about you, Jean-kun? What are your preferences? You're easy to get along with, but I'd still like to know!

Back home, for a very long time, all they had were each other. They had one other person, but he's not here. The three of them are very protective of each other because they had to be.
It annoyed me, the first time I met them - but I hadn't gone through the same things they did. Now it's something I think fondly of.
[ A bit of Eren, Jean, Mikasa and Armin lore for Maruki. At the question about himself, there's a pause before another text comes through. ]
It's easy to say anything here, because there's so much more variety than back home. But if I had to pick one... vegetable soup is one of my favorite meals. And I like the pine-apple fruit, even if it's a pain to get into.
no subject
Forgive my cheesiness, but after what you and Eren-kun have told me, I'm heartened to see that love grew even in such a brutal world.
[ Normally, pauses in responses don't really register to him. He's used to Akira, after all, pulled in all directions and apologizing unnecessarily for leaving him hanging.
That one does, though. Noted. Jean's mind is interesting to him. They all are. ]
Both are great choices! I can definitely make you a vegetable soup that'll knock your socks off.
And I can teach you how to quickly cut up a pineapple, if you want. There's a trick to resting them upside down that I learned from a cooking show back home.
lmk if this is too Necro for you
Home, a place that Eren flattened and destroyed most of humanity in. Home, a place that still includes his mother, includes Marco's gravesite. A place they're all stolen out of time from, and that he cannot judge them for choosing to ignore.
What if he does miss it, a little? What does that make him?
So he refocuses on the talk of soup and fruit, instead. ]
I'd appreciate any tips you can share, though I think I manage well enough now. I don't try to put it in coffee, either.
[ ?????? ]
I'll look forward to trying the soup.
NEVER I WILL BACKTAG FOREVER

Yuck...
... or possibly visionary. A trendy pop up cafe selling pineapple infused coffee would definitely show up in some places in my city back home. Maybe you have a gift for culinary innovation, Jean-kun.
no subject
[ What the fuck does he call Erwin. ]
- business partner of mine. That isn't Eren.
You're not far off, though. This delivery thing has been taking off, but I'm also supposed to help with pastries for a tea shop once our licenses clear.
no subject
I'm something of a coffee enthusiast myself. Do you know someone who's started a business like that? Ah, besides the cafe here... It's a little lacking...
