[fourlevels]

This was such a good idea! I'm glad we're doing this,

[beautiful_monster]

I didn't expect you to like it this much, but...it is kind of fun cooking with someone else like this.

[fourlevels]

Huh? Why wouldn't I like it? It lets me spend time with Yura!

[beautiful_monster]

You really want to...?

[Of course if he stopped to really consider everything he'd know the answer to that already, but like so many obvious things in Yuri's life it just doesn't occur to him until it's been stated outright.]

[fourlevels]

Of course I do.

[beautiful_monster]

Oh. ...Well. Then we can try a different kind next time.

[fourlevels]

Yuuri could teach us both how to make pork cutlet bowls too!

[beautiful_monster]

Katsudon would love any excuse to make those.

[fourlevels]

I would too actually! The cafe near here is good, but I miss the cooking in the hot springs.

[beautiful_monster]

None of the restaurants here are as good as the food back home. [He says, having been to exactly two restaurants so far.]

[fourlevels]

Oh! There's supposedly a Russian restaurant here. Well, in the next town over. I've been wanting to go there to try it.

[beautiful_monster]

Oh yeah...the one that ambassador recommended?

[fourlevels]

Mmm, that's the one.

[beautiful_monster]

We could go for lunch some time.

[fourlevels]

You think? I was thinking more for dinner ...

[ A romantic one at that. Maybe he and Yuuri could finally go on that date they've been putting off. ]

[beautiful_monster]

Dinner would be fine too, I guess. As long as we're getting to eat, who cares?

[fourlevels]

I guess so, thought it changes the mood slightly ... hmmm.

Ah—but I think the meat's done!

[beautiful_monster]

It does—? Ah!

[Yuri pulls the meat off the heat before it can burn and dumps it into another bowl. Now it's time to toss the vegetables in for a quick saute before everything gets put together.]

[fourlevels]

Ah, just enough to cook the onions?

[beautiful_monster]

[He nods.]

It helps the flavor a lot.

[fourlevels]

Okay!

[ Hopefully Yuri will keep an eye on Viktor so he doesn't burn the onions and vegetables instead. ]

[beautiful_monster]

[Of course Yuri's keeping an eye on it. Getting the onions the right color is the most important part. And when it's done it goes into the bowl with the meat.]

Ready to start filling them?

[fourlevels]

Is there a proper way to do it or ... ?

[beautiful_monster]

You just flatten out a little dough, put a spoonful of filling in the center, and pinch it closed.

[He demonstrates making one while he explains. ...He is also shaping it to look like a cat's head.]

[fourlevels]

[ Viktor grins at it. ]

Just like that huh?
