[ Despite not being outwardly very affected by the game, Gent found it unnerving enough. So he spends a while relaxing - that is, tending to the gardens, harvesting fruit and vegetables, that sort of thing. ]
[ And then he brings some apples and carrots and flowers(?) into the kitchen and starts making a cake out of them, humming serenely. He gets a little tripped up by the oven, but it's intuitive enough and much more precise than cooking over an open fire. ]
[ He seems to be confident, and not in a naive way; he knows how to peel and cut everything quickly, is grating his own cinnamon, and keeps tasting things. The flowers, he seems to be candying just the petals but they're still attached to the stems so they can be properly dried. ]
I was walking through the orchard and noting all the ingredients, so I probably made it before.
Thank you. It's relaxing in a way I hadn't considered until the idea came to me.
[ He hands over two of the candied flowers; he has plenty. ] Want to try them? The environment in there is perfect for growing sweet flowers and produce.
[ Sweet... flowers? Yes that's what he said. ]
[ If Lupine eats them, the flavor is indeed a bit sweet beyond just that they're candied, but there's a nice subtle flavor to them. The Linden tastes like honey, and the Dianthus tastes slightly of nutmeg. They go perfectly with carrots and apples and cinnamon. ]
Yeah, it's okay. [ sob i'm sorry gent his tsun cooking compliments ] [ Eats the second one consideringly. ] You know, I knew they had to taste different, but...
I'll take some time to think about it. But it occurs to me that a place that grows plants so well might benefit from a distillery.
[ He doesn't know the process for making booze but he knows a lot about how plant flavors complement each other, so he reasons that it would be a fun endeavor. ]
...it would, yeah. I've done collabs with them before — mostly Alex and Pentium, though Eichi was close to everyone. Most units are open to teaming up for lives, I think. The more points, the merrier.
[ does he have good advice for making friends with other units when he mostly just like shows up and is himself and somehow that works ] [ wait, one definite tip ]
They've still got a sign up in the entryway that says you'd better bring food if you wanna be let in, and apparently it's out of date, but I think you can't go wrong there. Ideally with a side of rare meat, but making sure you've got at least one dish that doesn't have any veggies in it is a must.

Yeah, sure.
[ Bites into the Dianthus first, then makes a surprised noise. ]
Huh.

It seems the ones here are the more subtle-tasting varieties, but very well grown. It must be the ideal conditions.

...well... thanks? [ Heh. ] Most of the gardens predated me, but I uh — requested the orchard.

You can definitely try putting in the request, but I think that'd be infringing on BiT's trademark.

Hopefully that plus my offer will be enough to entice them.
