[she'll grab a kitchen knife (WE HAVEN'T BEEN TOLD THEY'RE GONE SO I'M ASSUMING PEOPLE ARE BEING GOOD AND NOT TAKING THEM) and will get right to it! Chopping With Gusto... the pieces are generally small, but they're not turning out perfectly even]
[ good! he'll leave her to it, and starting fishing out some of the fish as they finish. once they're in the bowl, he'll set it on the counter near flayn, so she can see. ]
Once they're pink, they're done. It takes about five minutes, this way.
[then... soon enough it's time to put the ingredients all together! ...flayn is really excited, because this is probably the smoothest time she's had cooking literally anything]

[ since everything else is started, though... ]
We're starting with fried rice. It should be simple enough for you.

[fish is her FAVORITE. tomorrow is going to be great. today, with fried rice, will be pretty great, too.]
I will do my best. Please, order me about as you see fit! I will follow your every instruction!

Cut these into small pieces. I'm going to start cooking the shrimp.

[with a clear goal in mind and no conversation to get distracted by, it's easier to focus! these onions are going to turn out fine.]

Oh! So quick... [she leans over to get a closer look at them] At this rate, what shall take longest is the rice itself, it seems.
no subject
yes i meant the shrimp ]
The rice won't take long. We can set aside the other ingredients until it's done.
[ he'll just busy himself pouring the dry rice into the other pot of boiling water before turning back to the shrimp, then. ]
no subject
[this is exciting. while he takes care of pouring the rice, she'll help sort out the other ingredients.]
Is there anything else we must do to prepare them?
