...well. Maybe. They give me garbage. What can you make?

You don't have to look after me though, you know.

I am entertaining a guest. You're my first visitor you know.

[He motions Vergil to sit at the bar while he goes into the kitchen.]

Guess you need more friends.

[But, well, alright, he takes a seat]

Perhaps you're right.

[He'll investigate and raid the fridge. What's fast and easy?? Seems like it'll be stir fry.]

[grins]

Maybe your own age, too.

[Thank god don't give him something he doesn't understand how to eat

He reads in the meantime, naturally.]

Are you not usually? Well closer to it anyway.

[But he lets him read while he cooks! Coming over with two bowls of stirfried veggies and meat, lightly seasoned.]

Uh, no? Unless you mean Raven, but that's different.

[Do you think he would have let anyone see him if he knew he wasn't supposed to be a child? He's just used to hanging out with old men apparently]

Pfft. Of course.

[Setting the food before him and digging in himself.]

But what do you mean about Raven?

Thank you, Cosmo.

[He's polite, so he takes a bite to try it first, but certainly doesn't do anything like talk with his mouth full]

I mean because Raven's part of me or whatever. Didn't I tell you yet? I think I meant to, anyway.

Part of you? No you didn't mention.

Someday I'm going to split in two, human and demon. Raven's the fully human half. He named the fully demon half Urizen. Like Albion splitting himself in four parts. - That's what you're going to read about in the one I just gave you.

[That's actually extremely uncomfortable hm. He doesn't react though, picking at his food.]

Do you recover?

Dante says so. At least that's what Raven told me. Urizen would destroy everything otherwise, so I'd have to, or there wouldn't be anything left.

How... why does it happen?

Raven and I don't know how or why, maybe the demon king did it? Maybe it's just what happens to half-demons, since we shouldn't exist? Or maybe it's like Albion and I did it to myself. That's kind of why I wanted to read these again, it might tell me something.

I'd like to know. When you find out. Being split in multiple, and how you reform.

Yeah, you're smarter than you look, so I like hearing what you think.

I am beginning to be concerned about my face, given how often I hear that.

That said, I'll certainly offer whatever insights I may.

You've got a big dumb smile, and your eyes can be kind of dopey. I'm not surprised.

Thank you for the honest assessment I suppose.

I thought I'd better reciprocate.

[He grins, and goes back to eating.]

You're good at cooking though.

Ha. Well thank you. Stirfry isn't too hard, so that may be cheating.

I mean, normally demons eat people and stuff, right? So this is pretty exciting.

Just eat people whole?

I don't know, that's always how it is in books and art. But definitely their blood, anyway.
