[Lunatia's resident centaur lady is back on screen, and this time she's sharing the spotlight with... a table full of fresh vegetables? Still a bit dirty, fresh from the soil, good ol' vegetables... That Konoha bows over to start out.]
Hello, everyone! My name is Konoha... I'm a jinba, or a "centaur" if you want... I'm from Echigo in Japan, but lots of people say I'm from the past...
[She's just going to do the same introduction every time, counting off details on her fingers to make sure she gets all the good points... there's too many people on this thing and she doesn't check it enough to keep track... oops. Anyway-]
I wanted to ask people some questions about food! My husband and I have set up a little farmstead, but the crops are growing, um, way faster than they really ought to be... [we're just going to speed past the blush] and it's not like we actually have to work for money here, so I was thinking of not just taking the crops to market but... serving meals at the house? Or sending them to people elsewhere in the city? I don't know, but I've met a lot of people here who said they just eat food from the stores, and I know those are really convenient, but it can't be better than a home cooked meal, can it?

[Look at this big turnip! Isn't it healthy looking?! Don't you just want to eat it?? Konoha smiles, making the root vegetable dance around the screen.]
So... can I ask you some questions about what sort of food you like? Or what kind of things you miss from your home? Maybe what they make in your country with vegetables? If you give me some of your time, I'll send you some fresh ones as a "thank you"-
Promise!
[One last bow... and she and the turnip sign off.]

Oh, rice would be a wonderful addition. Do let me know when its ready. I've quite a few recipes that would benefit from a plentiful stock.
[ He'll probably be making more fish-related dishes now that it's just himself and Noctis in the apartment, and rice always goes well with fish. They can try making sushi again, it feels like its been so long since he taught himself in order to help Noct at his old part-time job. Ignis can even make his favorite, oyakodon, on a more regular basis. ]
The place does not yet exist, but when arrangements have been made, I will contact you. I would like to start a business of my own.

[Waste not, want lots...
But hey! Fun news?!]
You are? What’s it going to be- a fancy restaurant?
[He just seems real fancy and stylish to her, sorry...]
no subject
[ He's gotten a lot better at functioning with his blindness, getting used to cooking as well, but he imagines it'll take much longer before he's able to even remotely touch the sort of skill he used to have. ]
I'd like to create something of a public kitchen, a location for individuals to gather and cook among themselves, available for those with skill and those who wish to learn from the very beginning. Those who require regular meals such as during Cordis or new arrivals would also be welcome.
[ Ignis' voice quiets somewhat. ]
Gladio and I had been planning a business to run together, before he left. This is a variation of the idea we had.
no subject
Well, I think that's a great idea... There's a lot of people here who could burn rice in front of their own mother...
[... They real bad cooks, she means.]
But with all this not working going on I bet people have lots of time to learn if they want... and Cordis people sure do get big appetites...
no subject
[ ...Prompto and Noct, he's talking about you two. At least Gladio knew how to do that much. Cup Noodles needs hot water after all. ]
I heard many stories of individuals seeking cooking advice and looking for new recipes on the network, and as I cook regularly for someone assigned to Cordis, I thought this would be a wonderful opportunity to assist not just others but myself.
[ He's wanted to do something more with himself ever since he came back to Lunatia blind. Not to mention he's already itching to be able to get out of the apartment as regularly as he used to. He's sort of been... a little lonely without his boyfriend.
A lot lonely.]Perhaps this may be a step toward that fancy restaurant.

If... If there's anything I can do, you'll let me know, right? Even if it was just helping teach or something on days when we deliver vegetables or something!
no subject
You can understand now why I've always been responsible for the cooking in this household.
[ Regardless of how dumb his idiot friends are, they're still his friends. He can't let them starve or anything.
While Ignis can't tell whatever expression is on Konoha's face, he has a feeling he knows what she means when she sounds so hesitant yet persistent in wanting to help him. Just the way Mercy was. Just the way Noct was. It really does make that lonely feeling a little less heavy on his shoulders. ]
Yes, I will. Your company has always been wonderful to have.
no subject
[Dino... nuggets... She'll never forget the dino nuggets...
But she'll also never stop wanting to help her friends, either. And that includes Ignis.]
no subject
Once again, there is a reason only I do the cooking in the household. Gladio could cook, but... not well.
no subject
[It's just a good idea to divide the labor! Makes sense!!]

That happens to be of Gladio's expertise as well. He considers himself an outdoorsman, which is of benefit when you do an extensive amount of camping. He instructed me how to best prepare wild game for cooking. As we are all from a large city, hunting skills aren't exactly common knowledge.

Ehe, Gonta clan is from the deep mountains, not anywhere near the human villages, so he knows all sorts of things about living outside... I have to learn, too, now that I'm his wife...
Maybe I should ask you for tips!

T- Tips on outdoors cooking!

Oh yes, of course.
