Alright~! [Yuuto pokes his head out of the kitchen and beckons her over,] Let's eat then! Come take a seat and I'll serve you.

[dereban]

You're really making yourself at home, huh.

[ She's going to hop out of the couch and walk over and grab a seat at the table. ]

[spacialeyes]

I just want to provide good service. I'm here to spoil you, after all!

[Yuuto comes over to serve her plate, but doesn't sit yet.]

Can I get you something to drink? And um. Where are the cups..?

[dereban]

You're not my butler-- anyway, just water is fine. They should be in cupboard next to the fridge.

[spacialeyes]

No, I'm your date. [He uses his power to get a glass and fill it with water, then sits down with her properly.] And I like helping. I'd like to make you happy.

[dereban]

You sound like you'd say that to anyone, though...

[spacialeyes]

I-Is that so bad? I'm happy to help anyone, of course... Th-This really is a special case though. I usually try not to be seen or heard by people.

[dereban]

Is it really that special...?

[spacialeyes]

Yes, really. Like I said, I usually... really should be sure that no one knows I'm around. If I want to help, then I need to be secretive about it.

[He looks down at the meal that he's prepared.]

It was quite irresponsible of me to ask you out like this. I appreciate your accepting my offer.

[dereban]

. . . why do you need to have it be a secret?

[spacialeyes]

Because I'm not permanent..? [is the tl;dr.]

[dereban]

Nobody lives forever.

[spacialeyes]

I don't quite mean that way. [Yuuto laughs sadly, lowering his gaze from her face,] Though even if that was the reason... In that sense... I wonder which way it'll go for me, hm? I'm cruel either way.

[dereban]

What kind of cruel person admits to helping in the shadows and actually kissing me several times, huh?

[spacialeyes]

The kind that I am~.

What about you? Do you let just anyone kiss you?

[dereban]

Why would I do that? I don't get any enjoyment off of it if I just kiss just anyone.

[spacialeyes]

Ah. [He wonders if his Ex would be happy to know that he apparently gives off good kisser vibes? Should he be happy about that? He defaults to a smile.] I don't get it.

[dereban]

I only kiss those who I like.

[spacialeyes]

Me too! [Yuuto understands that much,] I like you a lot. You're a very interesting person, Inaba.

[dereban]

Ah...

[ She trails off, just giving the usual 'itadakimasu' before going to distract herself with eating so she doesn't have to deal with the fluster and how her heart races. ]

[spacialeyes]

[He isn’t thinking much of it. To Yuuto, it’s easier to accept her approval as being for his body. And of course she likes his body. It’s the part of him that everyone likes. He takes care of it for a reason.]

Is the chicken okay? And the potatoes? Did I get the Christmas flavor right?

[dereban]

It's really good... you really are a wonderful chef.

[ She's saying this between bites, looking rather pleased. ]

[spacialeyes]

Really?! Thank goodness..! I was worried I’d ruin Christmas..!

Please, be as greedy as you’d like! Ah- But there’s cake too.

[dereban]

You're not going to ruin Christmas for me if your cooking's shit. I'll eat what I can and save for cake.

[spacialeyes]

[He shakes his head,] Nn-nn! I asked you out on this date, so it’s my responsibility to see that it goes well. That means everything has to be perfect. Cooking especially.

What Christmas things should we do after dinner?
