"What should I make out of you? Spicy slime condensate with fish? I did get some Whopperflower nectar so this should be interesting!" Xiangling quickly went searching for something to butcher the slime with but her father stopped her. 

"Xiangling! Put the slime down!" Xiangling turned to him with a confused expression. "But why? I thought you supported me on my journey to enhance my talents!" 

"I do! It's just-" 

"That slime is with me..." The two turned to you as you sweated awkwardly. Xiangling furrowed her eyebrows. "Huh?" 

ιιιͺͺͺ

"I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to- I was just super excited to make a new recipe out of slime..." Xiangling apologized and bowed after you explained about the slime. "No- no- It's fine we all have our misunderstandings." You scratched the back of your neck. 

"A-and I can't really get mad since I was the one who brought the slime with me- So it's fine." 

This whole situation was awkward and you wanted to just leave. "But it's not fine! You just stay right there, I'll whip something up real quick as a sorry." She went to cook as you looked down at the slime to see the little girl from a while ago trying to 'comfort' it. 

You had no idea why she was trying to comfort it, you were sure it didn't even know it was about to die. 

"Listen! Everything is ok! Just forget about that scary lady!" The girl said as she pet the slime. "Honey, let's go. We still need to give these flowers to your mother." She looked up at her father and pouted. 

"But I don't want to leave the slime! Can't we bring it with us?" She asked. "Of course not." She started pouting and turned to you.

"Can I keep the slime? I promise to take care of it!" You sweatdropped. "I'm sorry but... your dad said no so..." You tried your best at reasoning as the girl almost went on a tantrum. "But!"

"No buts! We still have a dog at home and you were the one who promised to take care of it. And who takes care of it? Your mother. Now let's go." She huffed as she stomped away to follow her father to head back home.  

Children are so scary sometimes...

"Here you go! A dish I made with the help of some Pyro whopperflower nectar!" Xiangling placed a dish in front of you as you stared a bit terrified. 

It was Black-back Perch Soup. 

It's a dish known for being spicy but not too spicy to the point you can't feel your tongue.

You would have been excited to try this dish out but... The fact was... 

Xiangling added a Pyro Whopperflower's nectar. Which would mean either two things. 

It would either be a great addition and add to the flavour to the soup without changing its spiciness or... 

It would destroy you, leading you to stay in the restroom for a good hour.

"Hm? Are you not going to eat it? I promise it's good! Though I haven't really tasted what it's like yet... But I'm sure it's good! Just tell me what I can improve on if you can." 

'Her not trying what it tastes like is making me not want to eat this even more...' You thought as Xiangling pushed for you to eat it.

You gave in and took a spoon. 

You scooped a bit of soup as you sweat bullets. 

While you were silently suffering, Xiangling stared at you with stars in her eyes, she was so excited to get a new opinion from a new person she hasn't met before.
