 What...

I feel like...I've been sleeping for a very long time...

[The feed shows Alice, half-awake and reaching for her dreamberry. She had turned it on right when she was trying to find it, accidentally hitting record. 
It takes her a few more tries for her to properly pick it up...]

Well since I still have this......................It means I'm still dreaming.

[Siigh.]

I guess I better get up and  make Julius some coffee.

[SO WHO WANTS TO TELL HER SHE'S BEEN SLEEPING FOR 10 DAYS?]

[knightofchanges]

Not really. I'm not too picky, so whatever's easiest for you.

Unless you want me to make it.

[action]

[belovedoutsider]

You can cook?

[...........wut.]

[action]

[knightofchanges]

Of course. I have to if I'm camping out.

[action]

[belovedoutsider]

Well, in that case I'd like to try your cooking.

[action]

[knightofchanges]

It's not anything special, you know. [it's. bachelor food basically anyway.

but he's getting up and looking to see what Julius has to offer.]

[action]

[belovedoutsider]

That's fine.

[She smiles, and goes to make the coffee.]

[action]

[knightofchanges]

Then no complaining later!

[and he gets to work. how about an omelette? that's a good brunch food and pretty easy.]

[action]

[belovedoutsider]

[She just smiles before going ahead to grind the beans.]

[action]

[knightofchanges]

[hum dee dum. it's almost like they're a couple—

but it is a rather serene scene as he just cooks, whistling every now and then.]

What is your favorite meal, anyway, Alice?

[action]

[belovedoutsider]

My favorite meal?

[Umm...]

I'm not sure. If it's good and I like it that's what matters right?

[action]

[knightofchanges]

[laughs.]

What about food you don't like?

[action]

[belovedoutsider]

[........]

Nothing too bitter.

[action]

[knightofchanges]

Really? [glances over at her.]

Hmm you do look more like a "sweets" person.

[action]

[belovedoutsider]

[What does he mean by look like a "sweets" person.]

What do you like then?

[action]

[knightofchanges]

Hm...[thinks as he cooks.]

I actually don't like the castle food that much. Too rich if you ask me. I prefer simple cooked food—it's easier.

[this is probably influenced by his frequent camping trips.]

I do like meat, though.

[action]

[belovedoutsider]

[...It's not a trip if you're lost, Ace.]

Meat, huh? I can see it.

[Annnnd she's done with the coffee so she'll be pouring a cup for Ace now.]

[action]

[knightofchanges]

[sure it is! he's also almost done on his side.]

When you're done with that, can you grab me two plates?

[action]

[belovedoutsider]

Huh? Oh, yeah sure.

[She sets down two plates next to the stove for him.]

[action]

[knightofchanges]

Thanks!

[after another minute, he's serving up the dishes.]

Hopefully they're good enough.

[action]

[belovedoutsider]

I'm sure it'll be fine. I hope the coffee is okay.

[She smiles a little, before sitting down to eat. She didn't pour herself coffee though, since she doesn't actually drink it herself.]

[action]

[knightofchanges]

I guess I'll have to be the one to give you a grade, huh? [chuckles. brunch is served!]

But you're not going to have anything to drink?

[action]

[belovedoutsider]

........I guess.

[Nervous? Maybe.]

Oh, I usually just serve Julius my coffee so...I didn't think about that.

[action]

[knightofchanges]

[shrugs.]

There's probably something in the fridge. But now let's taste this coffee of yours.

[and taking a sip...]

[action]

[belovedoutsider]

[...........

What is this nervous feeling? So even when Ace is grading it still means something huh?]

[action]

[knightofchanges]

[cue Jeopardy music.

dum dee dum dum dum dee dum dum dee dum dum—]

...Hmm...well I'm not sure what Julius would say, but I'd give it at least an 80.
