Hello, this is Tsurugi Yuuichi. As I'm sure you all know, there are a few people who are fighting in Norway right now. I was wondering if perhaps anyone would like to help me with making onigiri and drinks for them when they return? I'm sure it would help boost their morale, and they deserve something to look forward to when they return home.

Can't the people fighting in Norway get their own food? Death City has restaurants, and we don't really pay for most things here...

[Kariya's expression is all narrow-eyed suspicion. Not so much from cynicism as much as from how weird it is to see an older Tsurugi all smiley and generous.]

It'd be kind of weird, waiting with rice balls for them.

[He tilts his head]

Would it?

[But they're riceballs made with love and care, how would that be weird]

[netting_nettles]

Yeah. You don't think it'd feel strange, if you came back from Norway and someone you didn't know was shoving food at you?

[It all sounds super-awkward to him, anyway.]

Maybe if you knew someone who went...

I don't think it would be strange at all! If I went off to fight and came back to something like handmade onigiri I would be very thankful that someone took the time to make it for me.

I'd be afraid they were a creepy stalker.

[Or a sakka manager, but those aren't mutually exclusive at Raimon.]

[itsalright]

Why would you say that?

video;

[netting_nettles]

Because I'd never have seen them before, and all of a sudden they're giving me things. Probably food they don't even make in whatever weird universe I'm from.

[He tilts his head the other way]

But then you could ask them about it and learn more about their culture. They say that the best way to learn about different cultures is through their food, after all.

[Dripping -- nay, oozing -- sarcasm:]

Yeah, I'm really going to want to do that, when I'm tired and beat up and just got home from fighting Norwegians.

[Or...whatever it is they're doing in Norway.]

[itsalright]

...I don't think they are fighting Norwegians, Kariya-kun.

[netting_nettles]

[Okay, yeah, probably not. Kariya grumps pointedly at being corrected, though.]

...That's not the point.

[itsalright]

Mm well either way, I think it would be a nice thing to do for them.

[Srry you can't change his mind]

[netting_nettles]

[Like he expected anything different. Sakka kids are never dissuaded from their dumb ideas, no matter how hard he tries. (On this topic, crossreference: Dokkan Jump!)

Kariya just rolls his eyes.]

Are you any good at making onigiri, at least?

video;

[itsalright]

Those who have eaten my onigiri have said they were good.

video;

[netting_nettles]

I guess that's good.

...Are you going to need a lot of help?

video;

[itsalright]

If I want to make a lot, I'll need at least one other person to help.

video;

[netting_nettles]

[Well, that isn't a lot at all! Kariya grins.]

You can get Kyousuke-kun to do it, then.

[itsalright]

[He gives a small chuckle]

I don't think Kyousuke would be very interested in helping me cook.

video;

[netting_nettles]

He wouldn't want to help his big brother?

[For shame, Kyou-kun, says Kariya's expression. For shame!]

video;

[itsalright]

No, that's not it. I just don't think he would enjoy making onigiri for people he hasn't acquainted himself with yet.
