Library [1/02]

This morning there was a closed library, there was a Karal, and there was a Firecat.

Soon after, there was an open library and a Karal with a cup of tea.

There was still a Firecat around somewhere, but he was well hidden today.

"Then you'll have to remember that if you want something, I'll be happy to cook it for you," he said. "It's only fair, after all."

"Fair?" he asked curiously.

He looked sideways at Karal.

"You're always there for me to talk to or ask questions, because you're good at that.

"I'm not much of a cook, but I don't burn things down. If you want something made, I can make it for you."

Karal smiled at that and looked down at his feet. "All right, I'll remember," he promised. "Thank you."

"You're welcome."

He smiled, just a little.

"And this was one thing I sort of enjoyed, when I could make what I liked."

"Then how about if you make me something that you like to cook," he suggested. "I'm not at all fussy about food, glory, I wouldn't even know what to suggest!" A near-lifetime of living in Cloister, Temple, and then palace, with servants and cooks, had something to do with that. "I'd enjoy it even more knowing that you'd liked making it."

"Perhaps I'll make it a habit to bring you your lunch on Fridays, before I head to work," he said with a faint smile. "After all, that way you won't have to remember to bring it."

And now he was blushing. "I, ah, forget a lot of the time," he admitted. "And you don't have to do that. You could still stop by, though, if you wanted to."

He smiled and nodded.

He'd bring lunch. Every Friday. Whether Karal asked or not.

...Altra, after all, deserved a proper meal.
