[ Undoubtedly it's for the best, and Minato's glad they had this talk; it gives him something to do over the week, little mini-goals to set for himself that seem more useful than sewing headbands. ]
Do you want to learn with us? Or should I learn all I can first, then teach you?
[ She doesn't want to learn to cook from Shirasu or from Minato-who-learned-from-Shirasu. Even if it was learning from someone who can cook... Think of the effort... ]
[ Again: Minato tends to just do anything Akane asks, so this isn't very valuable, but. She weighs it and decides that sounds fun enough, anyway. So sure. ]
Alright. How's this for a rule? You can learn to cook from whoever you want, but when we're making our final dishes to compare, you've gotta do it alone.
[ Is this a rule to keep the contest between them? Or is it a rule to keep Shirasu and Minato from working together and accidentally poisoning the judge? Who knows... ]
[ It's the only way he can ask anybody else to do anything for him, so it's motivating for Minato, at least. Though, chances are, his favor would amount to something like Akane wearing cat ears for a day, or something. ]
But I don't know if anyone here has allergies or anything...
[ and asking so many people sounds like... A hassle. Unless they made everyone fill out forms, which she is not willing to entertain the idea of setting up. What a hassle. ]
I think Xion was allergic to something... but that might be too complicated, to ask everybody, huh? I was sorta hoping we could cook for everyone, though. Sit down for a meal together. Lune and Sol too.
