Just something simple. I know that I need to eat to keep up my strength, but... I do not have the energy for a recipe that will take a long time to finish.
[ if it wasn't 3am I would be making munchies because of this thread. ]
There should be plenty of simple toppings to go with it. Do you have any preferences..?
[ he'll be shoving his nose into the other shelves to look for anything useful now. I'm declaring now there's probably instant chazuke tucked away somewhere and he'll pull that out too...! ]
Ah! This is always a favorite among the citadel.
[ even if they're all spoiled and get the freshly made stuff instead. but sometimes you've just gotta use what's available. ]
[she's about to say that she likes fish - but fish would be complicated to skin and debone. when he comes up with the instant chazuke, she leans over to get a look at the packet.]
[ if only there was canned salmon or tuna in these pantries too, huh. anyways, he flashes the package at her, despite it being written entirely in Japanese ]
It's instant chazuke. A soup base you mix with cooked rice for a quick warm meal.
[ a dish simple enough even he can make it.....! ]
[ he nods enthusiastically enough to make up for it ]
The others at home had introduced me to it. It's can be quite more complex depending on the person making it but the instant version only requires rice and boiling water.
[ so easy even a baby cook can make it! ]
I tend to prefer mine with a fried egg on top and perhaps whatever fish has been leftover but it's also quite delicious on its own.
[ we're gonna say he was a smart bean who put water up once the rice started bubbling so they don't actually have to wait long. which means it's tonbo's turn to putter around the kitchen, setting up a bowl for her and frying a perfectly runny egg to top it off with. mmmm nom.

[ dad voice: and what do you think you're doing outside of your bed? ]
no subject
Ah, well— I am famished. I thought I would go to find something to eat...
no subject
I would be more than happy to bring you something, Flayn-dono.
no subject
...I appreciate the thought, but I prefer to prepare my own meals.
no subject
Well then, please allow me to escort you.
[ and maybe take over when she overdoes it. better to let her fail once than try sneaking out a dozen times, right? right. ]
no subject
[onward they go to the kitchen!! ...once they get there, flayn heads straight to the pantry to look for ingredients]
no subject
Is there anything in particular you're looking for?
[ he's here to grab things as she needs ]
no subject
[she's somewhat self-aware at least.........
she's looking for rice]
no subject
Mm, that's probably for the best.
[ he unearths the bag from one of the shelves! ]
Perhaps this?
no subject
that's absolutely what's going to happen here but flayn only knows how to make rice so he's going to have to teach her the rest]
Oh! Yes, that shall do nicely. Thank you.

What is it?
no subject
It's instant chazuke. A soup base you mix with cooked rice for a quick warm meal.
[ a dish simple enough even he can make it.....! ]
no subject
I see...! That does seem quite foolproof.

no subject
[alas, there isn't any. she supposes she could catch one, but that would take time]
...but a fried egg might be very good as well.
[time to grab an egg out of the fridge!!]
no subject
Mm, if we ever make this again perhaps we can grill some fish to go with it.
[ but for now....! ]
Once the rice is done, it'll take only moments to complete.
no subject
[FISH. she can't wait.
for now, though - they're just waiting on the rice... which eventually is done.]
no subject
...
[ a half hour later- ]
no subject
flayn removes it from the heat. no burnt rice for them.]
So... next, the flavoring, correct?

now I'm hungry ]
Here, you are. One bowl of chazuke.
no subject
[she eyes the rice]
...there should be enough for two bowls, if you would like some as well.
