Haha. Well. I've gotten closer than I like, but I've always pulled myself back from the brink. Rise up out of the ashes - like a phoenix. If you fall six times, you stand up seven.
[ the way he says that makes it sound like a mantra, maybe. like something he's told himself before. he doesn't explain, though, keeping the mystery of that little remark to himself, and instead just letting out a little laugh with the wobble. ]
Starving, huh? We can't have that! What do you like to eat? I bet we could scrounge something up.
[ I'm innocent? Honestly after I've played three vore canons/adjacent characters and I'm still not the vore guy, I'm basically immune and unstoppable. ]
It's a popular proverb. Shichiten Hakki, or "fall seven times, get up eight". Though of course, there's also Shichiten Battou, meaning basically the exact opposite...
[ But she sighs, shaking her head. ]
The food here really doesn't cut it. I hope we get something better sooner or later; still, something is better than nothing. Shall we?
anyway, he smiles, pleased. bixing's not surprised that she knew the reference, but it always makes him happy, nonetheless. friendship ] That's the one. Someone said it to me, a long time ago, and I've tried to keep it in mind.
[ to say the least. as for food - ]
Yes! I think we might be able to doctor up something decent with enough experimentation, huh? I don't know about you, but I could use the distraction.

I just know some people who perhaps take the proverb a little too seriously.
[ Seriously, some people just never fucking die in this canon, I really cannot emphasise this enough. ]
It'll certainly keep me focused. I warn you, I'm not a particularly talented cook...
[ Who knows, maybe her little mania near end of trial was just because of a little hangry on top of the utter absolute insanity they all just collectively went through. Folie a... thirty (in French). ]
That's okay. I'm still learning, but, we can figure it out, right? If nothing, let's just think of it like an experiment! And if we make something terrible, we can bring it to the demons and they'll get a kick out of it.
[ it sounds like he's joking, at least, brightening up. eto you really did help. ]
No, but I'm just too busy to get familiar with the kitchen. Easy-serve or raw food is just better. Besides, grease and paper or keyboards don't exactly mesh well.
Alright, now. Enough standing about in all this warmth. Back inside.
