Just finally finished her icons.

[ivegottogodosomething]

Um...


Thank you... mun... I think they're very... pretty. These pictures of me. I'm glad that you could do something like that... for me...

I-it's okay if your voice for me isn't perfect right now... We can take it slow...

... As a team.

-The rabbit pulled her attention, at least. She seemed to not so much calm, as re-focus. Her tension was instead focused on the rabbit, and the look on her face was one of fascination.-

[mr_fahrenheit]

[He offered the gentle bunny to her, a smile crawling across his face again.]

You can hold him, he likes it.

[ivegottogodosomething]

Oh... okay... -Gingerly she accepted the fluffy thing, holding it as if it would break at any second.-

[mr_fahrenheit]

[The rabbit actually attempts to snuggle. It looks absolutely contented to be held by someone.]

...He likes you.

[ivegottogodosomething]

-It did indeed seem to want more of her petting, timid as it was. And then? Then Hanako seemed to almost... smile.-

You... think he does?

[mr_fahrenheit]

He only nuzzles someone like that when he likes them.

[Nudgenudgenudge, goes the bunny.]

Only done it for me before. [He has to wonder if it's the scars that make the rabbit react or a similar temperament...Who knew, but that slight smile was something else.]

[ivegottogodosomething]

-And just like that, it was gone, Hanako apparently having had enough of the rabbit and was handing it back.-

[mr_fahrenheit]

[He took the rabbit back and tucked him under one arm. The bunny seemed content there.]

...Do you like to do anything else for fun besides read? I like cooking. [And burning things, but he knew better now than to say that.]

[ivegottogodosomething]

-That got her attention.-

Oh I like cooking. A lot...

[mr_fahrenheit]

[He perks up with a grin.]

So do I. I never really have people to cook for, though...not since I left the orphanage.

[ivegottogodosomething]

I... mostly only cook for myself. Or Lilly.

[mr_fahrenheit]

Lilly a friend of yours? [Genuine curiosity. Pyro...doesn't really have friends.]

[ivegottogodosomething]

... Yes. She's... important. To me.

[mr_fahrenheit]

That's good that you have someone to rely on... [His voice takes on a bit of a sad tone.]

[ivegottogodosomething]

... Your rabbit.

[mr_fahrenheit]

[A shrug. He looks at the little white rabbit and smiles, though it's also tinged with sadness.]

Not quite the same, is it?

[ivegottogodosomething]

For people... like us... maybe.

[mr_fahrenheit]

...No sense in being sad over it, I guess.

[ivegottogodosomething]

-Hanako shakes her head in agreement.-

[mr_fahrenheit]

[Suddenly, an idea.]

Do you know how to cook anything American? [And what an idea.]

[ivegottogodosomething]

Um... No. Not really...

[mr_fahrenheit]

Wanna learn? [This is his eager face.]

[ivegottogodosomething]

-There's a long pause before Hanako nods, smiling ever so slightly.-

[mr_fahrenheit]

Burgers are easy enough. I can also teach you to make a skillet dinner...That's what I eat most of the time.

[ivegottogodosomething]

And... french fries?
