[Luceti, you're about to hear a very nice singing voice.

A very nice singing voice with a simple plea.]

I~ think I need some help. ♪

[Sigh.] Just... pick whatever and I'll help you make it.

[Certainly he can't mess up with Noct watching over, right? ...or maybe he'll just take over completely if things start getting messy.]

[fabrecation]

Okay, okay. [Flipping, flipping...

... Huh.] How about this? [He turns the book around with it held open on this page.]

[depressedude]

[Reading, reading... meat wrapped in meat? Sounds simple enough.]

Seems easy enough... The ingredients are fairly basic, so you should have them around. Get started on making the chili and sugar mixture. I'll chop the chicken.

[Note that emphasis: swordsman or not, Noct isn't letting Luke near any sharp objects when the man already seems incapable of using even a spatula properly. So meeean.]

[fabrecation]

[But he wanted to chop the chicken. :(]

Okay... [He's not really sure where this stuff is, so Luke spends some time to search around before he finally finds the stuff and gets started on stirring the sugar and chili together, and he tries very hard to make sure everything's the right measurement.]

[depressedude]

[If you're a good boy, he might let you help cut the bacon. Noct peers over every so often to check how Luke's doing as he starts cutting.]

[The cuts are perfect, but the manner in which he does it... it's as though that chicken wronged him in some way. It's probably best not to ask where he learned to cut like that. He almost looks disappointed when he realizes he's finished.]

Think you can handle cutting the bacon? It needs to be the right size so it wraps around right.

[fabrecation]

[Eh, everyone has different styles of cutting their food, so Luke won't ask. He himself is usually way too slow in an effort to get it right. He's done with the stirring by the time Noct calls him to cut the bacon, and Luke turns with a grin as he's quite excited about that.]

Yeah, of course I can! [He heads over, grabbing an extra cutting board as he goes, and stands a few feet away from Noct. He doesn't want to get too close while holding a kitchen knife and all.]

[depressedude]

[ffff Luke why do you looks so happy? It's just cooking, no big deal.]

[Noct clears a space for the second cutting board before fetching the bacon. Picking up one strip, he points out two spots along it before cutting, dividing it into thirds.] If you cut each piece just like that, they should be fine.

[fabrecation]

[Hey, Guy's usually the one to cook, and it's pretty fun when he gets to do it! Luke makes a mental note on where he should cut, then nods.] I can do that. [Luke isn't nearly as fast as Noct at this, since he wants to make sure that he's cutting in just the right spot. But he'll eventually get it done, and correctly too.]

Like this?

[depressedude]

[While Luke is cutting, Noct starts heating up the oven and searches for some toothpicks to assemble the food. He glances over at Luke.]

Like that, yes. Now you just need to wrap it around the chicken... [He picks up a piece of chicken and a strip of cut bacon, wrapping it before sticking the toothpick through both of them.] ...and use one of these to keep them together.
