To be frank, that's not my strong suit either. I tend to eat out every day for convenience. I would never expect you feed me - you've extended enough kindness letting me stay here.
Regardless, some of my portion will be left for you should you change your mind.
[Donuts are too sweet anyway!!! Come eat them Vash.]
[Dodge it forever - Vash will find a portion there for him or the ants. Whatever gets to it first.]
Even if I were to learn here, I wouldn't have time to do it in my world, but your point stands.
A kind girl did show me how to debone a fish for a stew. I could pass that knowledge onto you as well, if you're interested. If I could manage such a feat, I'm sure you could as well.
[Okay, he doesn't want to touch another nasty fish again. This has backfired horrifically. Maybe he can get away with instructing and get a nice little stew out of the process. ]
Then if I may request, please allow me to show you sometime. It's the least I can do to repay you for everything and I'll make sure to clean up any disasters that occur. You'll be able to learn without worry.
I try not to accrue debts. Whether it's today or in the future, I will be paying you back for the space. It's in my nature to do so.
Please get any kind of fish, carrot, potato, onion, chicken broth, butter and spices you enjoy. It sounds like a lot, but it's quite simple once we get started.
The hats they wear might be hiding some kind of mutation. Perhaps they're warping into a new creature entirely and will finish what last month's animals started.
That's a joke of course.
Thank you for picking up the ingredients. I'll see you shortly.
Would the hats be part of the fish or are they like clothes, do you think?
Yeah. it won't take long.
[ Vash is efficient when he shops at least, once he has a list. It's easier to avoid getting distracted. It's a little complicated to pay though, when the gelfling at the shop keeps trying to add up the same item over and over. Vash manages to make it through that, however, and it's not too long before he's standing outside the castle with a paper bag in his arms, staring at the house like he's hesitant to go in. His expression is neutral at least.
He's still not inside though, like some kind of weirdo. ]
It would have to be a part of the fish, given how it stays on them. If it were clothes, wouldn't it float to the surface?
[This is stupid. The question so outlandish and his own response digging at him. He should pretend his phone's glitching, but-
All he does is wait instead. Vash's habits are a mystery outside of crossed paths in shared spaces and short opportunities to watch him. Nothing extensive, not enough to glean anything of value. The time it's taking him to get back though - maybe he's stuck in a loop.
It would be funny, if there wasn't perishable items involved and if he hadn't been the one to send him on a fetch quest. That's another check in the mental debt category if so.
That's why he's about to go outside and see, when the door opens on-
Him. Just standing there, like a B horror jump scare.]
Oh, there you are. I was just coming to check on you. Do you need help carrying the bag?

I'm not much of a cook so you'll probably be on your own most of the time.

I'm probably beyond saving, but have you tried lessons?

I don't know. I'm kind of a disaster when it comes to anything in the kitchen.
But if you want to try I guess it wouldn't be fair to say no.

You don't have to pay me back for anything, really.
But there's no harm in trying.
I can grab ingredients if you tell me what we need.
[ there is so much harm in trying but they'll figure that out. ]

With how things are lately, maybe store bought is better.
