[seasaltkeys]

I mean, I've tried. And I can usually follow a recipe.

[He puts the bowl down, shaking out his hands.]

It just doesn't meant it ends up good.

[starshower]

[In goes the milk into the mix, and she hands the whisk back to him. He's gonna have to keep going!]

Have you ever thought about taking lessons?

[seasaltkeys]

Cooking lessons?

[He shrugs.]

Every so often, but I dunno anyone who's teaching.

Seems like a lot to ask when we can get by.

[starshower]

[There's a looong pause as Tifa gathers the rest of the ingredients, setting the food colouring on the table and popping open the lid.]

... I could try.

[seasaltkeys]

[Roxas looks up at Tifa, his expression serious.]

You mean that?

[starshower]

Of course I do.

[Sliding the bowl and a whisk over, she offers it to him.]

You seem surprised.

[seasaltkeys]

[He takes it up again.]

Guess I just wasn't really expecting an offer.

I mean, it's not like I came here looking for that. I just wanted to make ice cream.

But I'd appreciate it.

[starshower]

Well. Why not make this our first lesson? Ice cream's a pretty easy one, if you ask me.

[Tifa holds up the tiny bottle of food colouring.]

Now, it was supposed to be blue, you said?

[seasaltkeys]

I know I'll probably get a lot of use out of it.

[He nods.]

Yeah, it's like a light blue.

[starshower]

[She'll mix it with a bit of cream to give it that lighter colour, rather than the very vibrant and dark blue that it is now.]

How's this? Thought the original was a little too dark for ice cream. With it being called seasalt, I assume it's meant to remind you of the sea?

[seasaltkeys]

I guess so? No one really explained the meaning. I just know that it starts out salty, but then turns sweet.

[But he regards the colour thoughtfully, considering.]

But that looks right. Or at least, closer than I've seen.

[starshower]

Alright. Now, we pour this in...

[She'll hand him the mixture.]

... And then we gotta let it cool for a couple hours in the fridge. So, if there's anything you wanna do to kill some time until then...

[seasaltkeys]

[It's very focused as he puts it all together. There's something special about it. He's not just eating ice cream now. He's making it. And then he's going to share it with friends.]

I dunno.

I guess if there's any other, like, cooking basics I should know, maybe. Start there?
