It's certainly a higher standard of cooking than what I grew up with, I can tell you that.

[scarrystories]

... I don't know if you're praising me or low-key dunking on your grandparents.

[understood]

If I correctly infer the meaning of "dunking" in this context, then, both.

[scarrystories]

I'm happy to raise your standards.

[ Andy gives him a brief kiss. ]

Soup should be ready.

[understood]

I'll set the table, shall I?

[ He's already grabbing cutlery and stuff. ]

[scarrystories]

Yeah, I'm starving.

[ He's following Ben to the table with two bowls of soup. ]

[understood]

It looks like you got a lot of unpacking finished.

[scarrystories]

Yeah, I'm eager to feel settled in.

[understood]

... we should have a housewarming party.

[scarrystories]

Can we have a welcome to Canada banner?

[understood]

I don't see why not.

[scarrystories]

How big do you want it to be?

[understood]

On this matter I think I will defer to your judgment.

[scarrystories]

I think if we do people we know and guests it might get big.

[ Which isn't something he'd mind but maybe Ben would prefer something more like a dinner party. ]

I wanna invite Grace and whoever she wants to have over. We could go from there.

[understood]

I'd like to invite... hm. Qi'ra, Wade, Faith, Rhys, Dick, Huaisang, and whoever they'd like to bring along.

[scarrystories]

I'd have to think about it. Grace for sure, and Daniel, and whoever they want to bring. Sam, maybe, and Alina, but I don't want Alina's sub anywhere near us.

[understood]

Ah, yes, the infamous Mister Ling. Let's keep him out of this.

[scarrystories]

I'll check in, see how she feels about it.

[understood]

What if we have a little buffet, and make it "open house" style, but roughly by invitation?

[scarrystories]

That'd work, I'll just ask people to RSVP to figure out how much food to make.

[understood]

... we don't have to it if you don't want to.

[scarrystories]

Let's settle in first?

[understood]

Yes, of course. I would much prefer it that way.

[scarrystories]

All right. Let's see where we're at in a week or two? And enjoy this very Canadian recipe I took ages finding in the library.

[understood]

It really is delicious.

[ He's gonna have seconds. ]
