It's when you cook some meat after marinating and glazing it with a sweet sauce. It's usually fish, but it can be anything.

[ he sounds...surprisingly earnest about this ]

[bosssfight]

I haven't had that. I eat most of my food raw.

[steelmyself]

What? That's a waste!

[bosssfight]

I have an objective, for eating cooked things. And vegetables. But, I am used to raw food.

[steelmyself]

Then...I'll make you a stir-fry. With steak and vegetables.

[bosssfight]

Okay. Thank you.

[steelmyself]

Ah.





...we should find a way out of here.

[bosssfight]

How? I can't read the sign.

[steelmyself]

[ ... ]

...

[ he sighs. ]

"Love will set you free."

[bosssfight]

... oh.

[steelmyself]

Well, I suppose you probably can't do a lot of the more deviant things to begin with, so it's fine. Perhaps we could kiss? That's--nothing much.

[bosssfight]

... Okay, we can try that.

[steelmyself]

Yeah...

[bosssfight]

Okay.

[puts his hands on Archer's shoulders okay hi okay]

[steelmyself]

[leans forward a little, trying and failing not to turn red]

[bosssfight]

[...cute]

[leans up to kiss him, politely being careful with his fangs]

[steelmyself]

Aa-ah.

[chu]

I'm not a romantic, you know.

[but the door unlocks]

[bosssfight]

Do I seem like one?

[slithers out]

[steelmyself]

[following, stretching out slightly as he emerges]

Hmm. Snakes are associated with wisdom, which is really the opposite of romance.

[bosssfight]

Do I seem wise?

[steelmyself]

If you were, you'd cook your food.

[bosssfight]

That's not wisdom, that's just preferences.

[steelmyself]

Hmph.

It shouldn't be too difficult to get some ingredients to prove you wrong.

[bosssfight]

But I can't defend my side, can I...? You can't eat your meals whole.

[steelmyself]

I can.

In a sense.

I can consume human souls.
