[ rengoku is in the middle of finishing the pot sticker he'd been chewing on, the very last one, finishing that up before he speaks up to answer shinobu. it won't be long until they're being served the noodles they've ordered, but he presents his empty cup for more tea anyway. yes, please goes unsaid. ]
Oh? Perhaps that's why this particular pot is so earthy. Who recommended this place to you?
[ his curiousity is mostly because he wants to know if this person has other ideas of where they could go, maybe a shop that sells sweet potatoes... he looks like a little kid in a candy shop over the thought of it. ]
Lyria told me about this place when I’d mentioned that I was craving food from home earlier.
[ it was an off-hand comment, but shinobu has come to understand that the young girl is particularly passionate about food. she smiles while filling their cups, placing his in front of him afterwards. ]
She gave me an extensive list, from noodle shops to tea houses… and I believe a place that roasts their own sweet potatoes not too far from here. Perhaps we can visit after completing our mission tomorrow.
[ not that either of them need the added incentive, but it’s nice to have something to look forward to for once. ]
[ one can tell that rengoku is delighted by this particular revelation when not only his eyes light up, but the way he projects is voice shifts a tiny bit too — maybe a little bit louder, too excited. ]
Is that so? Then we absolutely need to find the time to do so after our mission, Kochou!
[ the tea is forgotten if only for a short while. he's too excited by the prospect of having sweet potatoes after a job well done that it's all he can think about for now. that is, until their noodles come in piping hot and smelling a hundred times more delicious than he expects. ]
—their service is fast!
[ eager to dig in, he claps his hands together to say his prayers. itadakimasu. ]
