[Ryuunosuke, you're going to embarrass him.

Again.]

I'm not going anywhere, so you don't have to worry about that.

[For a while, anyway.]

[greatestcool]

You'd better not! I really might be in trouble without someone like you to keep an eye on me!

[is he serious, is he joking, WE JUST DON'T KNOW]

[feistytrader]

...Someone like me?

[...He can think of ten different things that would qualify as "like me," and none of them are particularly great.]

[greatestcool]

Yep. A really good friend who will keep an eye on me and help me through... well, everything! Someone who wants me to take care of myself because they want me to be safe. Someone who's really cool and fun to be around!

There aren't many people who fit those descriptions, you know.

[feistytrader]

[...Well damn Ryuunosuke, when you put it like that...

...When you put it like that, Silver's going to grab for his collar to tuck his face safely away, then realize far too far into the motion that he doesn't have his tall collar in this ridiculous outfit, so Ryuunosuke just gets to watch him fumble around and get kind of pink in the face.]

You're a really good friend too, you know. You always try to understand what's going on and make me feel better, even when I'm down.

[greatestcool]

[HOW CUTE!!]

Emphasis on try. Maybe someday I'll work it out!

...The fact that I can say that and actually mean it is pretty impressive. I've got you to thank for that!

[feistytrader]

I think you're doing a pretty good job.

[...Alright, this is getting way too sappy for his liking, so he'll just-]

Come on. I'll make you something to eat.

[He is absolutely distracting Ryuunosuke with delicious food.]

[greatestcool]

Alright, sounds great!

[DISTRACTION WORKED sorry about your ridiculously dumb friend, Silver.]

So what are you going to make?

[feistytrader]

[Silver is not sorry about his ridiculously dumb friend. He's appreciative of him, in fact. But being embarrassed is not, and there's no place for embarrassment in the kitchen. Silver's quick to grab the eggs and some other-

Wait, wait, he should actually ask if Ryuunosuke wants this.]

I'm good at making eggs, but Milla's taught me to make some other stuff if you want something else.

[greatestcool]

Nah, it's fine! It's nice to have someone cook for me!

[he pretty much lives on easy to make stuff, he's useless]

You need any help?

[feistytrader]

I got it.

[He's working quickly enough. Surprisingly quickly, in fact.]

...It's nice eating food other people have cooked, isn't it? You can taste the emotion that goes into the food.

[greatestcool]

Yeah. I definitely prefer it over cooking stuff myself!

[...oh, uh, that's kind of—]

Also I'm pretty lazy, so!

[THERE, THAT'S LESS DEPRESSING]

[feistytrader]

[...Ryuunosuke...]

Try thinking about something that makes you happy next time you cook.

[Like Tsuki- don't say that.]

Or come eat at From The Hearth more. Milla, Ludger, and Cilan always make delicious food.

[greatestcool]

I'll try it! I'm sure Cilan's cooking tastes great; he's usually pretty cheerful!

[Except for that one time, but clearly Pokémon are Serious Business and we do not insult them.]

[feistytrader]

His cooking's amazing. I could eat it all day.

[That's the warm and pleasant thought that is going into this food he's making.]

I don't just recommend them because I work there.

[...Although that is part of it, he's not going to lie.]

[greatestcool]

Well yeah, but it's also good for business!

[go silver go, you get those customers]
