You taste-tested them? [Rean what if they had been poisonous-- nope nope, good vibes. He sighs] Aha, good to know! Better we don't repeat that time Millium found mushrooms.

[Boy that was a rough night]

But chili pepper huh... [Elliot wasn't the BEST with spice but he could handle a little. Still, he does remember Rean's cooking. He'll pat his arm encouragingly]

It'll be fine! Just remember you can always add more later but you can't take any out, so start small!

[PRO TIP THERE]
