[It's Sunday. For once, Athrun has the day off work.
That's why he's slumped on the couch. He's tired, and not looking to do anything in particular. At least, beyond spending time with Midori.]

*You now have a five-inch-tall fishgirl in a sandwich bag on your desk. However this happened, she seems to be resigned to it.*
Um...?
Um...?
You look pooped.
[Hm...] Just stay right there, I'll get you a surprise!

Retasu, unless you're secretly the mastermind behind the community, this isn't something you need to apologize for.
W-well, um. Okay. *hugs herself* This is strange, though.
Huh?
[That earns a look of surprise from Athrun.]
Well, I suppose I can stay here, but what is it?

It'll be something you'll like! Just give me a little bit, 'kay?
[She's planning to cook dinner.]

Can I come out? I'm afraid I'm going to suffocate if the sides cling to me.
Er...all right, then. I'll leave...whatever this is...to you.
[He's still looking confused, but at least he doesn't have to move.]

[Lyle just came home. Much to his surprise, he finds Caster in the kitchen, cleaning a counter top.]
...Whoa, now here is a sight I wasn't expecting to see.
...Whoa, now here is a sight I wasn't expecting to see.
[She skips off to the kitchen and soon the sound of pans clattering and cabinets opening can be heard as she gathers up the necessary ingredients for an amazing Chicken Helper.]
[Sadly not naked apron yet, but it is at least Caster in regular clothes and apron. She smooths out her clothes as she straightens up.]
Welcome home, Master.
Welcome home, Master.
[Meanwhile, Athrun is sitting on the couch, as he was told. He can tell she's cooking for him. This leaves him feeling...well, rather embarrassed. She's going to that much effort for him?]
[A chuckle.]
Adding what you said with the scene, it's almost as if I have an actual mundane servant standing before me.

[It takes her a little while, but about half an hour later she's spooning the results onto a plate for him. She followed the recipe and it turned out pretty well, as most recipes printed on a box tend to do.
Smiling, she brings the plate out to him.]
Here you go!

Here you go!
Aha... Do you need one?
[Your home is not really a mansion and you don't have other people to look after.]

O-okay.
*She reaches up and pulls the sides of the bag down enough to climb out. However, she ends up stumbling and falling forward, very nearly rolling off the desk and instead ending up hanging precariously on the side.*

[...But he wasn't in the kitchen.]
Eating out here?
Eating out here?
Hey, come on. This is just an apartment. It's not that hard to keep things clean on my own.
I thought so... But you must be busy lately, aren't you?
