“Hey there, Fiora.” You pat Fiora’s head because you’re a monster with no awareness of consent after being spooked by a spider. Fiora doesn’t know how to respond to your affection. “Can you make something for a decently large group instead?” You ask Kobashi.
“Sure, I took some, uhm, <span class="mu-i">supplies</span> from Vanessa’s house.” Kobashi acts like he’s a criminal like his superior. “How big?”
“For like…” You count the tomatoes, Matilda and Oliver with your fingers. “Seven people, total.”
“Did you forget to count yourself?” Kobashi wonders. It’s like it happens often to him.
“…Eight people total.” Fuck, the scare really made your brain malfunction. You drink some coffee to recover some mental fortitude… Do you even like coffee? “Thank you.”
“You’re welcome!” Kobashi will make sure to make a great dessert. “Here it is.” He drops down a box!
“Huh?” You know the guy is good, but that’s way too fast!
“Leftovers from yesterday.” Kobashi remembers the torture session in Vanessa’s home. “There’s no way Fiora can eat it all even if she tries.”
“A-And I really don’t wanna try…” Fiora shakes her head.
“Why? You don’t like it?” You think Kobashi’s food is decent enough! “N-Not that it’s healthy for you to eat an entire cake.” No matter how much anyone insists (And you know people that have insisted (you won’t name any names)), it is not!
“…I haven’t done anything to deserve them today.” Fiora feels guilty.
“Enough of that, Fiora. It’s not about deserving them, <span class="mu-i">these things are yours</span>.” Kobashi grabs the adoptee’s shoulders. “Except this cake, this one is Phil’s.”
“I-I’ll be on my best behavior to not lose them! I promise!” Fiora nods.
“That’s not it, Fiora.” Kobashi seems exhausted explaining it.
“I-I’m sorry for being too dumb to understand, don’t take my sweater! I’ll do better!” Fiora panics.
<span class="mu-s">What do you do?</span>
>“Seems you two have a long way to go. Is she staying with you for the foreseeable future or beyond that?” Ask about the poor girl’s situation.
>“Fiora, you can lower your guard a bit, trust Kobashi.” Make her understand that she has a new home.
>“That sounds wrong.” Glare at the goofy cop. What is Kobashi doing to this girl?!
