Cheria, umm... I was wondering if you'd like to join me for dinner tonight.

[Filtered to Pascal, Sophie, Richard, and Isamu | 40% unhackable]

Could you guys give me some help? I really want to make tonight special for Cheria and I. [You should be happy, Richard! He's finally doing something!]

[And now that those are out of the way, he takes care to propose one last question, this one publicly.]

What are things you usually do for people you care about? I mean... to show them that you really care about them? I guess I'm not really that good at expressing that, so... I'd really appreciate some help. Thanks.

[Cheria's just about to question the motives of this dinner when the following public query appears in the journal. Once she's processed that one, she becomes a bit flustered. Could it be...?]

O-of course, Asbel! I'd love to! [...] Where are we... I mean, are we having dinner in the house?

I suppose it would depend on who the friend is, wouldn't it?

You know I'm always happy to help, Asbel.

[By which he means "I WILL BE HAPPY TO MEDDLE IN EVERYTHING."]

What did you have in mind?

[What would he do for the people he cared about? Well, plenty. Eating cursed food is up there and having faith in them is another good one. But, he takes a moment to ponder this. ]

I think all you really need to do is just do what comes naturally. I guess you just really need show that you mean it.

[But how does he properly convey his ideas? ...Through fairy tales of course.]

Like with Prince Charming and Snow White. He would always find Snow White when they were separated and he would do anything to make her happy. But, I think as long as they know you truly love them, anything you do for them lets them know that you care.

[Advice on love from ten year old. What do?]

Cook for them.

[He suggested this to Ven; why not to him, too? Granted, the context might be different, but cooking for someone is definitely a good way to show they're appreciated.]

Well, that would depend on who they are, who they are to you, your relationship with them, and what their interests are, right?
