[He thinks that'll change as soon as he smells the food cooking, but...
Things happen, and memories happen, and he's just helpless. Mikleo feels that wave of warmth and soft joy come from somewhere, and now that he knows the source, he can feel it even stronger. The trembling in his fingers doesn't stop. For once he doesn't struggle against Eren's suggestion, he just sets the butter on the counter and steps aside. He's afraid he'll cut himself with all this trembling.]
Sorry, [he mumbles, and sits down in the wooden chair.] I guess I'm more tired than I thought.
[He worries his fingers into the fabric bunched about his knees.]
You're right. If you're going to stay here, you should know where everything is.
[Did they even talk about Eren staying permanently? It doesn't matter. It's a given, and Mikleo's rolling with it. He doesn't want to be in this house alone-- not when he got it and lived in it with Sorey before.]
Everything you need is already out on the counter. We need to... slice up the leeks to get all the sand out. Then we chop the leeks, the garlic, and the potatoes. The leeks go into the pan with the garlic until they're soft, so a medium low heat.
