"Naw, I've been watching the cooking channel," I laugh. "Well, Youtube postings of it~."

"I need to start doing that," I said to her, putting an arm around her like she'd said I could. I hoped she was getting as much comfort from the action as I was.
This was safe. This was normal. Normal of a kind that didn't feel wrong like the inside of my skull now did....

"Yep, you~," I lean back a moment against him before pointing to the soy sauce. "Add as much as you think we need, but be careful, it comes out fast."
He wants to feel normal, no, this feels norm...
"Hey... How did we get home anyways? And... Did we solve the Ashe thing?" Last thing before I awoke to him kissing me is... Looking at the bogus site. "... By any chance did you wake up and give me a chance to go to sleep?"

That I knew. I carefully tipped the soy sauce into the pan, then shrugged. "Your guess is as good as mine. I woke up and you were acting weird.... then.... I felt so afraid of you leaving me, and it felt like something else took over. It kissed you to make you stay." I shook my head. "It's part of what disappeared when Izaya.... did what he did, whatever it was."
I paused. "I don't think 'disappeared' is the right word, though," I said finally. "It's still there... it's like a light got shined on my mind, so I can see it even if I can't feel it. But I can't reach it. My head feels like an empty apartment, the day after the movers came and took everything out."

I frown and stir some more, humming slightly to myself, "Well... Food is gonna be done... sometime soon." I don't mean to ignore it... its just... I can understand too well.
But.
I can't say that.

"I'm sorry, I'm depressing you aain," I told her, shaking my head. "Food's gonna be wonderful, Namine." I took a deep breath, inhaling the scent of the food and of Namine, who was so close to me, and felt my over-tense mind beginning to relax. It relaxed away the fears, the doubts, the worries; I just had Namine left, and that was fine. Her calm mind gave me something to latch onto, and I realized that while Izaya had sealed away all the anger and knowledge and instinct I'd found over the past few months, my mental powers were clearer than ever.
Did I have him to thank? Or the memory I'd gotten in the bank before he even showed up?

I stick out my tongue, "Ew, curious Neku... This can only lead baaaaaaaaaaaad places." I flash him an image involving the kitchen counter as an example. Loooooooots of kissing involved of course.

I received the image loud and clear - when Nami tries to think at me, it's usually the equivalent of mental shouting. I blushed.
HARD.
"AHEM," I coughed loudly. "Um. I'm going to. Uh. Go. Get you. Um. The bowls. For the stir fry."
While I cool my mind and... heart. Yes. Heart.
Not that it didn't look fun. But. AHEM.
Heart.
I walked over to the cupboard where we stored the dishes.

I just smirk and continuing stirring the food, "Thank you, Neku~." Humming to myself I turn to the seasons and begin adding them as need be. "We should make rice~... Oh and can I have your MP3 and head phones."
Might as well get my dance on while I'm happy~.

"I got a set of portable speakers the other day," I suggested, pulling the bowls out of the cupboard. "Want me to plug them in and put your folder on shuffle?"

I sqeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee, "YES! YES~!" I bounce on my toes as I beam to him. "Put Kesha's song Your Love Is My Drug on first, please?"

I sighed. "You got it." I exited, went to my room, dug out the speakers. I smiled a little at the newly purple-and-blue-grey walls (Namine's work, of course) and turned around and walked out. I came back in the kitchen, plugged in the speakers, and put on the requested song.

"Thank chu~," I wait for the song to hit the actual lyrics before beginning to dance as I finish up the stir fry. "Do we have rice? White rice?" My hips swaying to the song.

"Yeah, lemme get it," I said, watching her move and smiling. I was glad she was calming down, too... "Here you go," I said, pulling out my 'family-size' box of minute rice.

Turning the topping stuffs on low I skip over to get a pot, "Mint... Do we have mint... Hmmm... Did I start that window herb garden?" Then I skip back over and laugh peacefully. "Whatever, this gonna be the bestest~."
Hmmm....
"Ever tried to you your telekinetic powers on water."
