Also On: Ao3, Dreamwidth

As the hours passed, the sky changed colors twice. From day to night, and night to day. The sounds of tinkering filled the air of the apartment as Kyoka continued to work away at her latest project. Seemingly focused on her own little world. Isolated from everything else.

That was until her body suddenly caught up to her as she flopped onto the ground, hearing the roar of her stomach. Spanner wasn’t here to fix any food either… But thankfully she wasn’t alone.

“Lache-chan, can you help me out a bit?”

“Worked yourself to the bone again?” Lachesis helped pick her up, dragging Kyoka’s limp body to the couch. “You always forget to take care of yourself.”

Kyoka tiredly laughed. “You’re not the first to tell me that.”

Lachesis had slowly been learning how to put together meals and how to cook. She was told how they were vital skills to have once she’d turn human. Though it turned out it wasn’t going to be an important skill for just her to have when it came to taking care of the human body it looked like.

It didn’t take long for the instant ramen to be ready. Of course, Lachesis made sure to grab a hefty amount of cilantro for Kyoka to have to garnish it as well. Can’t forget that.

Lachesis couldn’t help but smile as Kyoka absolutely devoured her meal. To enjoy food to its fullest, she was excited to experience this part of human life more herself.
