As relieved as she is that he's fine and enjoying the sandwich – seemingly quite a bit, in fact – it takes her a moment to gather her wits. He just ate a lot of sandwich.

"Oh, uh...cheese!" she answers. She suddenly remembers her own food, so applies some more butter to the pan and flips the sandwich. "It's cheddar cheese. We have lots of it, if you want more after you finish that."

[nitrodamus]

"Cheese," he repeats, with his funny alien accent, and then crams most of the rest of it into his mouth with considerable vigor. "It okay."

Without further hesitation he goes right for the sliced cheese package and takes out a piece to just eat by itself. Who needs the middle man, really?

[civilizedcombat]

She's still surprised at his ability to stuff his mouth with grilled cheese, but she's glad he's found something good to eat. How healthy tons of cheese is...well, that's a bit questionable, but she's not that much about healthy food anyway.

"Have you found anything else you like?" she asks. "One of my favorite desserts is ice cream; there's probably some in the freezer!"

[nitrodamus]

"I like paper," he says without much hesitation, already done scarfing the sandwich. He glances around the kitchen curiously. "What are 'ice cream'?"

[civilizedcombat]

She stops. Did she hear him correctly? How does someone just...eat paper?? ...He probably meant "pepper." Of course. That's definitely what he meant, and she can move on with no worries in her heart.

She walks around him to get to the fridge, then opens the freezer. The cold air hits her face; it's a stark contrast to the warmth of the air above the stove. She grabs the chocolate ice cream from one of the shelves and sets it down on the counter next to Sollux.

"There you go! That one is chocolate-flavored, but there are other flavors too. They're all really yummy, but they're different than the cheese and the pepper!"

[nitrodamus]

He looks at it skeptically, and then leans forward and cautious pries off the lid half way. It doesn't look completely dissimilar to things he's eaten before. It's very cold, so it must be some kind of ice based food.

He straight up sticks his finger in it and then tastes it. He furrows his brow.

VERY SORRY FOR THE LATENESS...

"Do you like it?" she asks. She has the feeling he's not that into it, but it's hard to tell.

While she waits for his answer, she slides the grilled cheese from her pan and onto her plate. The bread is brown and buttery and the cheese is just melted enough. She takes a bite out of it, and she realizes that it is just as delicious as it looks. At least one of them is for sure having a good culinary experience right now.

He likes the sweetness but the chocolate is weird. He licks his finger, but still looks confused.

"Don't know well," he says. "Sort of."
