Koshi chuckled when May mentioned him becoming a chef. "Ah, well... I doubt we'll be able to do what we want when we get to Earth anyway. But thanks for the compliment." He seemed a bit sad, but kept a sincere smile as he continued chopping.
From birth they were told that htey would be given high-ranking positions in the government. Koshi thought of the Council, and imagined himself having a seat in it. The thought terrified him.
But if it was what the Andera wanted, he'd do it.
He didn't have a choice anyway.
"I guess cooking somehow became a passion of mine. I don't think I ever told you how I started... I was reading Lord of the Flies for the tenth time, when I decided I was bored with it. I was about to leave the library when I saw it out of the corner of my eye. It was a cookbook, and I didn't have anything else to do, or anywhere to go... So I read it. I know, it wasn't particularly spectacular plot-wise, heh. But I tried out some recipes, and it was fun." He stared at the coarsely-cut onion with fondness in his eyes, remembering how often he'd make food for May- just to have an excuse to come over, or invite her over.
"Oh right, can you preheat the fish grill medium-high? Then whisk together the oil, lime juice, chilli powder, jalapeno, and cilantro in a bowl." After a moment, he added, "I hope you don't mind me just giving orders for now, I can't really stand." He sighed. He had this recipe practically memorized. It was simple enough that he found himself making it pretty often when he lived alone.
Koshi glanced up at May, surprised, when she offered him her cookbook. "That's really nice of you, but are you sure you won't need it?"[/fieldbox]
