You can't learn age, Mikleo, and I don't know how to even begin to explaining what it feels like being my age and knowing friends lose an arm or a leg or something or even die when they're still babies compared to me.
It's not as if I haven't ever thought about it. [ Mikleo has known since he was a child when Gramps told them, the differences with Sorey being human. Not just Sorey now, Rose and Alisha too. As well as other humans he's met here.
How eventually Mikleo could be living years.. centuries from now and they'd be-- ]
Even if I'm still too young to have experienced it yet I still have. [ And felt the pain that comes with remembering. ]
[ But he's not upset with her. He couldn't be. When he remembered the differences between seraph and humans.. well, moments like those showed Sorey's company was even more appreciated. ]
[ Curious inquiry, stepping in once she gives the okay. He glances over to the materials and where it is she's sitting. Right then and there making note to actually get a desk in here so she's not hunched over on the floor like that.
He moves to sit near her, setting down some hot tea and a cute cat-like flan pudding for her.] Another request of yours?
[ He blinks a few, actually interested in this supposed personal project. His gaze flickers to the flan pudding. ]
Well.. I've made flan pudding before, plenty of times actually. This is just the first time I've tried to shape it differently. [ Edna sure does have a liking to cute things, huh? It quirks a smile. ] Like it? I was thinking of making normin shapes with it next time.
Y-yeah. [ such an honest compliment.. it actually flusters him a little. ]
Though it was Acqua's idea to make it a cat. [ The blue normin thought it'd look more appealing than just a simple plain looking flan pudding. It took more time but.. he'd say it's worth it if this is the results.
Once she's finished with it does he pull her into a hug. Not pushing his luck to pat her head but the sentiment is there. He doesn't want her feeling alone as he's sure she must be when coming face to face with the difficulties of everything. ]
[Mikleo's desserts are always good, but somehow it tastes better when it's cute. It's gone very quickly, and Edna starts to thank Mikleo for the snack.
And then he's hugging her.
It takes her a moment or two to react, but when she does it's not to shove him away. It's to return the hug.]

Something like that.
[ yep. both. ]

[Honestly.]
I'm fine.

You can talk to me about anything, you know.

[Which. Is actually not Edna being Edna this time. It's just a fact.]

Where are you right now?

I'll be there in a few minutes. [ And true to his word, there's a knock to her door. ]

[Sure enough, Edna is on the floor of her room with her metalworking/jeweler's kit spread out under her magnifying lamp. She needs a desk.
She's also in the middle of making something. A photo of four men is next to her, like a reference.]

[She has spotted the flan.]
How long have you know how to make that pudding, and why have you not made it more often?
