[ Not that she would know. Bookworm who spent seven years of her life just studying to be the best lawyer she can be!! She doesn't know much about relationships outside of friendships. THIS IS HARD.
... Her cheeks might be slightly flushed, though. ]
Thank you! These are very homey dishes I've had back home.
[Home... It was a weird word since Ai's had mixed feelings about her world for a while now. But there wasn't anything on the colony that could replicate the atmosphere of her home country.]

But are you going to be alright in the meanwhile?
action;
[ And it sucks!! ]
I'll be fine, I guess. I'm used to living alone.
action;
[She pauses as she helps herself to rice and fish.]
I could visit you!
action;
[ She laughs amiably. As for the food, she waits for Ai to get some before serving for herself. ]
I'm staying at Simon's right now while it's getting fixed. I'm not sure how long it will take.
action;
[Ai that sounds so weird, stop!]
action;
I— Y- You don't have to say it like that!
[ It did the job, though. She's flustered now. ]
action;
... Oh! I understand.
It sounds too romantic right??
[The worst part is how innocently she makes this inquiry, the worst kind of sincerity!]

[Ai grins as she helps herself to some more greens.]
If that's all there is, that should be fine. As long as you're not alone while your apartment gets fixed up, then it's fine with me.
action;
Why don't you sleepover at my apartment when I move back in?

action;
By the way, nice job on the food. These are great!

I really need to learn to make it myself.
action;
[ Be her waifu, Ai. ]
action;
[Can't Simon waifu it up]
Do you not cook a lot, Athena?
action;
I'm... slowly learning! I've got better things to do than to stay in the kitchen all the time, you know?
I can cook instant noodles, though...
action;
Ai can see that she hit a sore spot.]
Well, instant noodles are tasty too. Especially if you add extra green onions, an egg and other things.
[She's trying to be reassuring. You know, be a good friend.]
action;
This sucks.
action;
Um, what are you able to make aside from instant noodles?
action;
I haven't tried cooking again, since I mostly just take home food from the cafe.
action;
You just need to think outside of the box to discover new and delicious tastes!

she really should be overweight]
