[She gives a small shrug because he does have a point there. But at the same time ... ]

I think I'd rather have the flu kill me.

[purrtagonist]

[a beat]

[and he hums in agreement]

Yeah. It's probably less painful.

[hackedhistory]

Hopefully it won't come to either of those.

[One hand comes up to rub the back of her neck, and then she sneezes herself.]

Sooner rather than later.

[purrtagonist]

[she gets a sympathetic look for her sneeze]

Maybe some soup will make you feel better. . .?

[hackedhistory]

[She's reluctant to answer at first, before she glances up and nods.]

Soup sounds pretty good, actually.

[purrtagonist]

Soup isn't my namesake recipe, but I think I can make a pretty mean miso.

[a pretty overly salty miso, which is saying something]

[hackedhistory]

Is miso halal?

[There's a beat.]

Does it have pork in it?

[purrtagonist]

Hal-- [oh good, she clarifies, because he wouldn't have known how to answer that otherwise]

Nope. No pork. Just mis, dashi, wakame and sometimes tofu.

[hackedhistory]

... I don't know what any of those are but as long as they're not pork, we should be good.

[She knows she can't keep super halal in a place like this, but she can at least avoid pork.]

[purrtagonist]

[THUMBS UP]

We're definitely good.

[hackedhistory]

Awesome. Let's do this.

[And off they go to have some salty, salty soup. /scene?]
