Okay so I'm looking for easy and simple cooking recipes that don't take a lot of time.

[She doesn't have the focus for time.]

And if you're going to ask me why I as a girl don't already have 'em, don't. Because I will punch you in the face and I am getting really good at it.

[gristle]

Yeah. We got to get all fancy dressed up before, that was fun. And there's always weird things to do too.

[minus1twin]

Sounds nice.

I'm a little sad I missed it.

[A beat.]

Not that I really care for dressing up but I like parties.

[gristle]

It was fun. There's parties here a lot, unless the people here are being the worst. It happens sometimes.

[minus1twin]

I'll have to keep that in mind.

Thank you for all your insight Bev.

Let me know if you ever want to learn to cook. I think I owe you after everything you've told me.

[gristle]

Okay! I definitely do what to learn though. Add something to balance out all the fighting skills I'm learning.

[minus1twin]

Ah. You're learning to fight too?

That's good.

[gristle]

Yeah. Definitely. Lots of different ways and from lots of different people too!

[minus1twin]

Well if you'd like another.

I could use a sparring partner.

[gristle]

Okay. We can do that!

[minus1twin]

Let me know when you'll free and we can begin.

[gristle]

Tomorrow after school?

[minus1twin]

I'll make sure I'm free.

Where should we meet?

[gristle]

The rec dome has some good open spaces for this sort of stuff it’s where I train with Ubbe and Jason and everyone.

[minus1twin]

Good too know. I need to keep my skills sharp while I'm here.

[gristle]

Yeah, they help if things get weird again.

[They always get weird again.]

[minus1twin]

I'm used to things getting weird.

[Wanda isn't sure what she'd do with peace and quiet. As much as she wants it, it isn't a natural part of her life.]
