Kitchen (Survivor Aichi)
-'Ita-da-whatever'...-
-Aichi actually chuckles a little. Extremely awkwardly, but still a chuckle.-
-He can tell she's trying, at least...-
"T-Thank you, Rottytops..."
-All right, time to do that properly...-
"Itadakimasu*."
-And he gets straight to just adding the syrup, and eating the pancakes. He's partly desperate to shift his focus from Rottytops and her zombie nature to good food, and also because he really wants to dig into pancakes.-
-He's hungry, even if he's still struggling.-
*I usually put "Let's eat" or "Thank you for the food", but since Rottytops specifically referenced the phrase proper, I had to have him actually say it.

-...O-Oh...-
-Oh.-
-OK, OK, calm down... You're getting freaked out over nothing... Rottytops is a friend. She wouldn't do anything bad to you...-
-But the idea of friendship as a secret ingredient...-
"Ehehe... That's an ingredient I can see myself using."
-Oh, you got him to chuckle again! It's a weary and tired one, but it's not sheepish!-

"It's a key ingredient in any recipe! Can't make a good meal without friends! ...Wait."
-Okay even she seemed to notice the accidentally cannibalistic undertone in there-
"...Okay ignore that last part."
"A dead civilization can still have legends. Just because the planet isn't there anymore doesn't mean its stories aren't because of people who know them. Just look at...Greece or whatever."
-Does she not know that Greece is still a thing-

-You know, he didn't even pick up on that cannibalistic undertone at first.-
-He actually was just thinking about the idea of making food alongside friends (which he has done a few times).-
-But then Rottytops told him to ignore that, and then it sort of clicked that it could mean something else.-
-Annnnnnnnnnnnd now he's kind of just frozen with that small smile he had before she said that.-
-The look in his eyes expresses the internal screaming quite well.-

"First of all, engaged. Second of all, wasn't staring. Third of all, wear a shirt."
