Yeah. Even little things.

People get scars because they survived something that hurt. They have bad feelings because their hearts are trying to tell them something.

Damian always told me that rivers and canyons and mountains and islands - they don't happen overnight. They had to carve their way. They happen because even the world is never perfect. Sometimes it takes things and destroys them and makes new things. And even the new things won't be perfect. But they'll still be there. People still call them beautiful.

I don't think anybody really wants anything perfect. Maybe we'd get bored of it. I'm not really sure. But... I know people being different is what makes me like them all for what they are. Even if we don't get along. It means they're alive.

[He falls silent at that. Not displeased, but rather, not comprehending.]

Is that really it...?

[But... that doesn't match what he knows.]

[gluttoning]

Dunno. I'm not really smart enough to say something like that for sure, even with all my memories.

[He gives a shrug, settling in a little deeper into the couch as he puts his empty bowl aside.]

It feels true enough to me, though. I know I couldn't enjoy so much good food if I didn't also know what bad food tasted like. So I think, if all I ever had was perfect food... I don't think it would make me happy anymore.

So I'd rather have life, with its imperfections, and feel happy with what comes.

-Ah, do you want me to get your bowl?

[gluttoning]

Huh?

Oh. Yeah, sure. You can just put it in the sink. [Handing it out to him.] It might just disappear on its own, but I like to wash them anyway.

[justonezero]

[Taking it!]

I've just been eating at the shops, so I haven't tried the kitchen here.

[But it will indeed get deposited in the kitchen!]

Oh, and- is there anything else you'd like while you're there?

[gluttoning]

Mm. A lot sounds good right now. [my dude my man you JUST ate] Water, probably. Levi will kill me if I dont take care of myself.

When I'm feeling a little better, I can show you some of the recipes I was able to make. The shop food is really good. But I think it's nicer to be able to make personal touches to things.

[justonezero]

[Fetching him a glass of water!]

-! Really?!

I've been meaning to learn how to cook!

[Trotting over, take water.]

[gluttoning]

[Water obtained.]

...You don't know how?

[justonezero]

Not even a little!

[gluttoning]

Oh. Well, we can fix that. It's always a lot scarier than it sounds.

What sorts of things do you like eating?

[justonezero]

Besides junk food?

[gluttoning]

Heh. Well, that's still food, but anything counts. [No judgment here, man, he eats everything.]

[justonezero]

Then... do you know how to make pizza?

[gluttoning]

Of course.

What kind is your favorite?

[justonezero]

Hmm... Maybe just cheese?

[gluttoning]

Pretty classic, you can't go wrong with that. Do you like it crispy? Chewy? Lots or sauce, or only a little bit?

[justonezero]

...

I have literally never thought about any of those before. Uh, what would you recommend?

[gluttoning]

[He snorts out a laugh.]

I'd recommend everything at least once. But that probably isn't helpful.

The only way to find out is to try. Maybe we can make a bunch of different kinds and see what you think. The extra pizza won't go to waste around here, heh.

[justonezero]

I guess that's true. Isn't it a waste of ingredients, though?

[gluttoning]

It doesn't need to be. We can be smart about it. I need some time to recover, anyway, but we can plan it out.

Oh. But I won't make you wait until my leg's healed, though, I promise. That's going to take months.

[justonezero]

As long as I have directions, I think I can do it!

[gluttoning]

Heheh. Of course you can,l, you're really eager.

Don't worry about it. It's not like you have to prove yourself to anybody here. I think you'll do just fine.

[justonezero]

I just don't want to run through too many ingredients when they're hard to get...
