Nozomi #577: Home Cooking
Nozomi
Okay. All that's left is to simmer it.
Player
It smells absolutely incredible. I'm so excited to eat some of your home cooking, Nozomi!
Nozomi
Your anticipation makes all my efforts worthwhile.
Nozomi
Oh, right. Could you come here for a second?
Player
Sure. What's up?
Nozomi
I've got a sample for you. Open wide!
Player
Wh-What?! That's so e-embarrassing!
Nozomi
Surely it's not THAT embarrassing. You and I are close enough to do this.
Player
Th-The reason why it's so embarrassing is because we're close, though!
Nozomi
Does that mean you don't want a taste? And after I made it sooo tasty and delicious for you…
Player
N-No fair, Nozomi! I'm dying to try it!
Nozomi
*Chuckle* Well, if you're going to be that sincere… Then here, take a nice big spoonful.
Player
O-Okaaay…
Player
It's so good! I want another bite!
Nozomi
Nope. If I let you have some more now, then you'll just keep wanting even more after that.
Player
Awww, I can't really argue with you there.
Nozomi
You can eat lots of it once it's finished cooking.
Player
Okay! Hey, Nozomi? Pass me your spoon.
Nozomi
All right. What for?
| Option 1: “Open wide!” |
|---|
| Player Okay, Nozomi… Open wide! Nozomi Are you gonna give me a taste as well? How lovely. Yes, please! Nozomi Ah, it's cooked to perfection. |
| Option 2: “I'll clean it up for you.” |
| Player Isn't it better to clean while you cook so it's done before the meal is finished? I'll wash up the spoons and bowls that you used. Nozomi Wow, thank you! I do hear that it makes things easier when you clean as you go. You're so responsible. |
Nozomi
It'll only be a little while longer until it's done, so sit tight until then!
Player
Okay! Oh, next time I'll have to treat you to a home-cooked feast of my own!
Nozomi
Are you serious?! I'd love that. I'll be waiting with an empty stomach!
Player
Great! I'll practice as hard as I can to make something tasty! What sort of food would you like, Nozomi?
Nozomi
Hm, good question. Maybe some Japanese barbecue.
Player
Huh? I mean, barbecue is really tasty and all, but I'm not sure that counts as home cooking.
Nozomi
*Chuckle* I'm happy with whatever you serve, so long as it's something that we can eat together.
