Spice requires tolerance, and tolerance can only be found by eating very small amounts of the spice in question. If it means broadening your culinary experience, I'm happy to cook for you.

Thankfully, not all Sichuan cooking is spicy. Once you are familiar enough with the basic ingredients, a little heat shouldn't pose a problem.

[Elliot doesn't respond right away. This is reading enough like his dad's attempts to change his opinions that Elliot is having a moment.

A moment where he's considering committing acts that wouldn't be considered in the spirit of the holiday season. ]

[Okay, no. Breath. Count to ten. Remember the thought exercises your therapist has been drilling into you. Zhongli means well and Jusis sees him of family. Just think of what Jusis would want.]

That's a very kind offer. I'd love to try some of the less spicy Sichaun dishes, at the very least!

[Oblivious to the daddy issue angst, he continues on.]

I hope you enjoy them. Huaiyang cuisine is very nice for the winter, so I'll have to bring over more soup soon.

[Please it's not angst it's salt]

Haha, well I wouldn't turn down some soup in this weather! I know Rean would be thrilled as well, he's always been interested in learning and experiencing Asian cultures.

[He's a weeb sir]

[So much salt that he could make a whole Jinhua ham.]

Ah, yes, that's right.

[He'd been a good student, back when... Zhongli still taught.]

You'll have to reintroduce me.

Of course! Rean is pretty easygoing with memory stuff, so I'm sure he won't mind at all.
