Quinvalis almost gave a reply out loud but refrained. He still didn’t know or fully trust this girl and he didn’t feel like giving her more information about himself than he already had. She didn’t even need to know that everyone had to grow up and some sooner than others. That would only encourage her to ask more questions and he was done with those. “Quiet is nice,” he answered with instead, opting to pick her solution that he also suspected she wouldn’t be able to follow for long. Silence didn’t seem to be something Zelly understood that well and he was willing to bet that she couldn’t keep quiet for long even in the cuddling while reading scenario she tried for earlier.
As they walked, he wondered what he would do with a soup recipe. He supposed he could pass it on to his mom and let her try it out and compare it with the soup they made at the Whetstone. He didn’t have much in the way of cooking skills himself and wasn’t sure he wanted to try it—Quinvalis would also bet Zelly would offer to teach him if he made any noise about not knowing or not wanting to make her soup. She was persistent and refused to let go of him for some reason.
But he would try to shake her for a time, figuring her obvious growing chilly state was reason enough to part ways. “You’re clearly cold and your teeth will start chattering soon and break the silence I’m enjoying so let me walk you back inside and we can do the recipe swap.” And then he was running before she tried to get him to stay for some crazy new idea.
