Re: The Inquisition (Demeter)
"Thank you very much!" Idian replied happily, "It truly is delicious, but if 'that' was the best you ever tasted, just wait until breakfast! It may not be sweet, but it's taste is out of this world!" he boasted with a wide grin. "And you don't have to worry about a thing, for a good friend, I'll stay until you know every recipe verbatim! Since... Well..." he laughed half heartedly, "Everyone who ate my cooking never really gave me any choice... Also, is it strange that my cooking only appeals to women? I've only ever had female chef students, and the guys don't seem anywhere near as interested..." he told Demeter, actually sounding a little discouraged by that. Also having no idea what ulterior motives those women might have had.
"All of my recipes are self-taught," he answered Demeter's next question. "People tell me I just seem to have a knack for knowing taste. Ever since I was little, I was eating all sorts of things. I even found certain kinds of leaves from a tree that are good when mixed with tomato sauce, just from eating so many leaves off of every tree I could find!" he laughed. "I did get poisoned a few times from eating something strange here and there... But this was the result. I'd say all those trips to the doctor were worth it, if you ask me." He said with confidence. "Especially since I now seem to have an extremely powerful immunity system. So, I was a bit scared when I made a new meal, and every one of the people who ate it got sick... Only to find out that I was immune to the yellow mushrooms that paralyze the nervous system, and everyone else was not. To be honest, I recall eating that mushroom 11 times in the past."
Once they were done eating, Idian looked at Demeter when she motioned for bed, and nodded in complete agreement. "Agreed, you sound more tired than I am," he stated, missing the undertone of her slur as perhaps was expected of him. Standing up, he kicked dirt over the remains of the fire, putting it out, before packing all the supplies away. With Demeter inside first, two bedrolls laid out for both of them, she'd notice...
Idian had the bedrolls on complete opposite sides of the tent.
Crawling in after her, he took off his shoes, leaving them outside the tent, and flopped down onto his bedroll with a sigh of relief. "It sure has been a long day~" he said with a smile of happy conclusion, before looking to Demeter, and frowning. "You've been acting weird... I figured it was because of the fact that we had only one tent... I hope this is good enough, as I plan to do everything I can to respect your dignity as a woman. I swear, on my honor, I will never do, or think anything sexual about you. Your purity is safe with me, Demeter!" he announced loyally to her.
