why are you afraid of boiling water if youve made pasta before. its the same boiling water as when you put pasta in it, youre just putting a sausage in it instead

trust me as someone who's been in his shoes here: any positivity helps. it may not be obvious at first, but even the smallest of gestures add up over time. you could change his life before either of you even know it.

the beginning of...whatever you want to have with him. i can't really tell, admittedly, but it's on you to take steps in the right direction anyway. ...that just tells me progress is being made. slowly, and kind of jumbled, but it's better than being solely on bad terms with him. +

...you're already thinking of kissing? i was barely even aware you two tolerated each other. *trying to think of advice, but everything he could think of required more emotional maturity than seven was probably capable of.* try starting at the very beginning..? it's a very good place to start.

oh, they're not mine...or at least, they're not for me. i keep them around in case any of my coworkers need an extra. *taking it and putting it back in his pocket.* you know how cooks are. ^^ +

i would try to be a little more appreciative. *like second nature, he was reaching into his uniform pocket and pulling out a pack. offering him the box, it was more than half empty.* here. if it'll help.

pushing others away was the kind of problem he wished he'd had at that age. he was always the one on the other side of it, if he was even given the time of day at all...ah, this was no time for recollection.* but he is a start. why not accept the olive branches he offers? if he's all you've got, +

*he had to stifle a dry laugh at that notion. craving affection but blocking off all the roads to it...talk about a self fulfilling prophecy. yet listening to him vent, he couldn't help but empathize. being alone was never fun, even when you were the one encouraging it. +

i guess i'm also a bit harsher because you remind me of the past. you know your elliot, i know my seven...how mischevious he used to be. juxtaposed against how he is now, it's all just so odd. kind of like reliving the past we tried so hard to move on from.

*the touch felt odd in his chest, but the man in front of him needed comfort. patting until the coughing stopped, then leaving his hand there to rub gentle circles on his back.* well...i'm older. i've seen a lot over the years. it's hard to keep up that optimism, as hard as i try. +

*instinctively moving to pat his back.* i've tried plenty. my seven and i are happy because of it. *knowing him, huh...he always figured this seven was nothing like his own. but hearing this...seeing that small sliver of vulnerability...it was undeniably familiar.* ...knew?

*waving the ring away, rolling his eyes.* ugh, always so rude. i can't believe the mayor...sorry, i mean my coworker....my boss? ...dued. why does he even give you the time of day? (this cross-universe stuff is so confusing sometimes...;;;)

*taking a seat nearby, on the opposite side of the smoke...seems he was used to dodging vapors from his coworkers.* odd to see you not causing trouble for once. i have to say, it's kind of nice.

what?! ace, when did that happen?? did you get it looked at??? *stopping in shock, but at the canine's nonchalance, he slowly started up again. prepping the ingredients, heating up the pan, things like that.* you really need to visit more often. how long has it been there???

no, no....i'm just checking. pets have never really been my forte, so i worry... *deciding on a recipe and gathering everything to put on the counter, double checking once it was all together.* ...bullets?? did you just say bullets???

𝑬𝑳𝑳𝑰𝑶𝑻 𝑩𝑼𝑰𝑳𝑫𝑬𝑹❢ ミ @rushhourer.bsky.social · 26/06/2026

hmm...i did recently pick up those cuts to experiment with... think i'll be able to do something like that. *looking over the ingredients himself, going over recipes in his head...gears clearly turning.* is there anything you can't have? i'll work around whatever there is.

𝑬𝑳𝑳𝑰𝑶𝑻 𝑩𝑼𝑰𝑳𝑫𝑬𝑹❢ ミ @rushhourer.bsky.social · 26/06/2026

*shooting him another concerned look. picking up his pace toward the kitchen.* i'll make you whatever you want, so long as we have the ingredients for it. feel free to rife around the pantry to see what we have to work with.

maybe, but...i don't know. it feels different when it comes to you. *stepping away, heading towards the kitchen. beckoning them to follow.* come on, let's get you something proper.
