Not like all those other trees in your room, huh? So what did this one do?

My trees are lovely! They would never.

This one said that yorkshire puddings have no place on the dinner table.

I have no idea what that is, but I'm more concerned that a tree would be eating pudding in the first place.

[ stops what she's doing, mid-kick ]

[ slooooooowly cranes her head around to look at him ]

You don't know them?

--the trees or the pudding? Because that's a no for both?

The Yorkshires! The Yorkshires!

We have to fix this.

[wheeze!!]

Is that more important than your training? I thought a Yorkshire was a dog. . .

Technically Yorkshire's a county in England. [ points to herself ] That's where I'm from, 'cept for the part where I'm actually from space.

Anyway. The dog's a Yorkshire terrier, and then there's Yorkshire pudding, the best side for a a roast dinner. They're absolutely more important than training.

.....that actually makes a lot of sense in retrospect. [he had wondered why a dragon had an accent but didn't want to be RUDE]

I don't remember anything about England, let alone the food. So, can't complain about trying new things.

It's a cute accent, right?

[ Pulls back from the tree, stretching ]

If you're free now, I can whip some up for you back at the dorm.

It's fun! Definitely not one I hear much where I'm from.

But sure, I just picked up some stuff from the conbini. Do you need any specific ingredients for it?

[ happy pleased ear wiggles ]

[ BOUNCES OVER ]

[ hooks an arm through his ]

Naw, it's just eggs, milk, and flour. Super basic!

[lsdfkj]

That's it?? Then what makes it so special?!

Crisp on the outside and light on the inside, with a hollow that you can fill with meat and gravy! They're the perfect vehicle!

Pluuuuus they're cooked in fat, so it's not like they're flavourless ...

Oh! And you can turn them into wraps, too, if you make big ones!

Like pancakes?? You're really hyping this up!

'course I am!

Real-talk, but I love getting to share bits of my home with my friends here.

Now that I think about it. . .

If you're from the west, this place must have been a huge culture shock, right?

It kinda is! Kit n' me live in a dinky li'l backwater village, and even our nearest city's tiny in comparison to Tokyo. The food's all different, some people use those honorific thingies I still don't really understand ...

Yeah, but that honestly sounds kind of nice. It's easy to forget since we're the only ones in this place, but big cities are full of loud dummies and hustlers. A village sounds super ideal.

One of my favourite memories I've got back so far, we walked ten minutes down the road to a strawberry-picking festival a local farm was hosting. Not a single exciting thing happened! It was just gorgeous weather, great food, fantastic company.

That sounds amazing. I've only remembered one thing so far, but it doesn't sound nearly as chill as that. I can at least eat fresh strawberries though!

Ooh, what did you get?

[pause;;;]

Nothing exciting, just dealing with some asshole. Found out I can speak a lot of different languages though.

[ pip ............... ]

Our Pip's so talented!

I don't think you can say that when you're a dragon, W's a hero, and everyone else is way more talented. Thanks though.
