Virgil nodded as Amelia spoke, he had a basic understanding of cooking for the most part but once he'd started living on his own it was pretty much whatever he could by cheap.

"Living alone, it was just easier to go for whatever was easiest or fastest." It was almost a relief to see that despite their difference in status it seemed the two of them might have a few things in common.

Part of him wanted to hold back and strong around her, like despite everything that happened to him lately he was just fine.

Wrapping his arms around her in turn, he couldn't help practically sobbing to her shoulder.
