[Varian still counts Oscar as a badass- you HAVE to be, to exist in Remnant, he's pretty sure of it. ]

Hot and filling would be amazing, thank you. At the very least, it might mean Glitch will have less of a breakdown trying to scavenge for supplies AND remember to eat.

[And him remembering to eat at all, but that's a given.]

[justoscar]

[--Cue Oscar's drive to be responsible kicking in upon reading those words. Thinking of his three friends, all young men without much experience to their name, he suddenly found himself worried.]

Varian. Do any of you know how to use a kitchen?

[Somehow he doubted it.]

[droptheious]

[His worry is pretty well-founded. They're goddamn disasters.]

I know how to cook! I just forget to. A lot. Busy doing science stuff, it happens.

I know Fern can make soup now?

[He literally opens a can and heats it, it's not making soup.]

I think Glitch can like. Cook an egg?

[justoscar]

You can't live on canned soup and eggs, Varian. With as active as you guys are, you need more.

[Growing teenagers, active teenagers, living in a town of known horrors...

Varian, please.]

[droptheious]

[WOW, OSCAR, DON'T TELL HIM WHAT TO DO!!]

It's not JUST canned soup and eggs. There's coffee too. And sometimes Ruby sends us a pizza?

[Please help them, it's a miracle they're not dead already.]

Varian.

I know you're smart enough to know what I mean.

[droptheious]

Ugh. Fine. We might be a little less prepared for food than most other houses in the town.

[justoscar]

Then I'll send a meal your way tonight, one that'll hopefully last a couple of days if any of you know how to reheat things.

I hear October gets bad, so none of my friends are going hungry on my watch.

[droptheious]

I am perfectly capably of reheating food, Oscar.

[He's a GENUIS after all.

He just forgets to ...you know.

Eat it.]

Just makes sure you take care of yourself, too. That's important. You don't want to fall apart while you're looking after someone else.

[justoscar]

[Such is the classic blunder of geniuses. They forget to do the basic things to take care of themselves... much in the same way as people who were inclined to caring too much.]

Don't worry, Varian. I know. I'll be careful if you will too, okay?

[droptheious]

[He's notoriously bad at taking care of himself- that's why he has people who dedicate their days to making him sleep.]

I will, I'll do my best to, anyway. Thanks, Oscar.
