[quizzak]

[ romelle was hoping to be stealthy while trying to find the source of the smell, because it smells good. it doesn't smell like anything she's ever had before, but regardless, she wants to try it. ...that may not be possible though, so maybe just a peek wouldn't hurt...?

except she rustles a few leaves and draws the other girl's attention. drat. caught in the act, huh? no use keeping it up. romelle comes out from behind her tree and looks a little sheepish. ]

Oh, er -- nothing much! Iiii was only stopping by to say hello to a fellow traveler!

[betrayaladorned]

[The Mimikyu sitting at Haru's side squeaks and shuffles a bit closer as Haru smiles.]

Hello to you too, in that case. Would you like to stay for a bit? The soup I was making is almost ready.

[quizzak]

I'd love to!

[ she says it a little too eagerly, ears twitching when she hears a squeak -- what an adorable little pokemon! romelle's own stufful squeaks and hops down from her shoulder to say hello. ]

Right -- before I forget my manners, my name is Romelle. It's a pleasure to meet you...?

[betrayaladorned]

[The Mimikyu squeaks shyly at the Stufful, peeking from Haru's side.]

Haru, and this little darling is named Hydrangea. It's lovely to meet you.

[The breeding guide gets set aside for the time being.]

[quizzak]

That's a very pretty name. [ for such an...interesting looking pokemon. that goes unsaid though, and romelle sits across from haru, taking in the warmth of the fire. ]

What soup are you making?

[betrayaladorned]

She's named for a flower I'm particularly fond of from home. [She brushes her hand against the top of the Mimikyu's disguise, and Hydrangea, feeling a bit bolder, scoots forward to properly say hello to Romelle's Stufful.]

It's a potato soup! I found the recipe in a book, so I'm giving it a try.

[It also helps that she had some of the things prepared beforehand at the last town, but that's neither here nor there.]

[quizzak]

[ the ears and peculiar markings beneath romelle's eyes probably reveal she's not human, as close as she is to resembling one otherwise. ]

That's certainly a name befitting of a flower.

[ as for the potato soup, romelle gives it another whiff and hums in contentment. ]

It smells delicious! I've only had one or two potato-based dishes during my time on earth, but never a soup. [ a beat, then: ] Are you also a chef, Haru?

[betrayaladorned]

Well, not quite yet. I do plan on opening a cafe back at home someday, though!

[So, like, it's a work in progress.]

I'm used to putting potatoes in stews and the like, to tell you the truth. I've never actually had a soup quite like this one before, so I'm rather excited.

[quizzak]

A cafe! Incredible!

[ romelle brightens up a little. ]

You should meet my friend Hunk one day. He's been teaching me how to cook, and he's brilliant at it. I'm sure the two of you would be a force to be reckoned with!

[betrayaladorned]

Oh! That sounds wonderful... I'd certainly enjoy that. It sounds like I could learn a lot!

[And she's always open to learning more. She's not sure how much she can learn about the business end of things while she's here, but from the sounds of it, learning more about the cooking seems like it'll be easier.

She peers at the soup, stirring it again, then gives a satisfied nod.]

There, it seems like it's ready.

[She gets out a couple of bowls to ladle the soup into, smiling.]
