[ It doesn't count if it's hair, so I think we're good, anyway! And Escha nods, then comes to take over to take both the kinds of cocoa powder. She likes the sweet kind, after all. ]
Really...? Sweets always make me feel better... And cocoa is supposed to be sweet.
Yeah, I don’t usually drink it. [ because it’s sweet. but, y’know. he offered, caffeine wouldn’t be a great idea right now, and having hot milk kinda makes him feel like he should be three and crying a lot, so.
dark cocoa it is. ]
Don’t people go wild for “dark, rich, superior” types of chocolate anyway? [ check the afflicted accent added for emphasis there. ]
Escha also waits before drinking hers, so now they are just standing here in this awkward lapse in conversation because Escha couldn't keep up the chat... ]

[ i had literally forgotten i wrote that until this tag landed in my inbox ]

You like experimenting when you cook?
no subject
You can make a croquette, or a burger more interesting pretty easily, but I'd mess up if it was like honey bagel or something like a chiffon cake.
