Of course.

[ A slight pause follows. ]

I wouldn't just taste it but eat it whole.

[ Ha-ha, he's quite funny.

He also decides to not say that his taste buds are all but shot due to eating out of the garbage from before he came to the plane they fine themselves and still doing so now. ]

[nerine]

[Pffff.]

I gotta say. The visual of you trying to stuff a whole concha in your mouth is... Yeah, that's pretty funny.

[Her own tastebuds function at least, though anything extreme in temperature, she wouldn't notice, or worse if anything scrapes against her mouth. It gets iffy there.]

[pathofsacrifice]

Concha.

[ He repeats the word back to her. ]

Is it quite large? Wide? Long?

[ Artemy likes this talk; it eases the rage that has built up in him. He stores it away for when it will be pulled on, again. Instead, he laughs and jokes with Monts; the gratitude he feels in her presence grows. ]

It's a sweet bread with a textured pattern on top, kind of like a seashell and they're round with a flat bottom. Usually, conchas can fit in your hand, but they have a lot of volume.

[She likes this sort of talk as well; where it's insignificant knowledge, but it eases both parties as they casually learn about one another.]

The top patterned layer can be any color and flavor. It's a popular bread to have for breakfast with coffee.

[ His eyes roll up as he tries to imagine exactly what these conchas are from her description.

What he comes up with is a bread in the shape of a seashell that is covered in multiple layers of color -- perhaps, even meats? He thinks such a treat would satisfy one's hunger for hours. ]

It sounds like a dream. [ Is what he ends up saying; voice filled with awe. ] I suddenly feel even more blessed to be the first person that'd be able to eat it.

[The manner in which he says that makes her think of customers who were not accustomed to the well-made baked goods and cafe meals that Oren would provide. Different worlds, different contexts, and all that.]

If there's another thing I can say about my world is that if you want to try different cuisines from around the world, you're likely to find a lot of good things to eat.

I'll let you know if I'm successful at baking a concha and you can be the first to try.
