26 - video/action for beach house

[The device turns on, obviously with its owner unaware of it doing so. The pink haired girl is in the kitchen pulling out a cookie pan of croquettes and placing them on the counter to cool for a bit as she removes the pink oven mitt from her hand. Picking up a fork, she impales one, then brings it up to his lips as she blows on it to cool it down. Taking a bite, she chews on it for a moment before proceeding to look sad.]

They don’t… taste the same…

[And the device turns off on its own.]

[firstaid]

He always said he added 'love'.

[And she believes that to his day. All of his food was good, but his croquettes were exceptional.]

[oceantrauma]

But...how would that change the taste?

[firstaid]

It just does. They simply taste better.

[oceantrauma]

Are you sure? [Can't believe that possible!]

[firstaid]

I'm absolutely positive.

[oceantrauma]

But that's....

Are you certain he didn't just say that to cover up the real ingredient?

[firstaid]

He may have, but I really believe it put love in it. He was caring like that, after all.

[oceantrauma]

Then I wish I could have met him.

[firstaid]

I wish you could have as well. I'm sure you would have liked him.

[oceantrauma]

Perhaps if he returns...? You did, after all.

And in the meantime, would I be able to try one of those? Even if it's not the same, I would still like to taste your cooking.

[firstaid]

Okay, I can make some more for you if you wish to come over.

[oceantrauma]

Oh...no!

I thought you had some left over. You don't need to go to any trouble like that. Just whenever you have some extra is fine.

[firstaid]

It's not a problem at all. I planned on cooking some more anyway for my housemates.

[oceantrauma]

Then when you do, I would be happy to try.

[firstaid]

Then I would be happy to save some for you.
