Fuck, dude! What the hell was that?!
What? The wasabi biscuit I made?
Herman coughs and sputters, his face turning red. He grabs a glass of milk from the fridge and chugs it down, trying to soothe the burning sensation in his mouth.
I didn't think it would be that strong
Herman wipes away tears from his eyes and takes a deep breath, trying to regain his composure.
Yeah... yeah, I'm fine. Just... just give me a minute. Herman leans against the counter, trying to steady his breathing.
Herman takes a sip of water and lets out a sigh of relief as the cool liquid soothes his parched throat. Thanks, man.
That wasabi came from my garden so it's really strong
Well, next time, maybe warn me before feeding me something that could potentially incinerate my taste buds!
Sorry about that. You want more water?
No, no more water, dammit! Just leave me alone for a minute. I need to compose myself. Herman steps away from the counter and goes to sit at the table, trying to calm down.
Okay....I won't bother you. I'll just sit over here and watch Overlord while you relax
Herman nods and takes a few deep breaths, gradually calming down. He looks over at ChocolatePhoenix, who is settled on the couch with the remote in hand. Yeah, go ahead and watch your movie. Just... just don't make any more wasabi biscuits, okay?
Herman smiles weakly and gives a thumbs up. Despite the ordeal, he's grateful for the comedic relief and the chance to unwind with friends. He settles back at the table, ready to enjoy the rest of the evening without any fiery surprises.
Do you want anything else? Maybe a cup of tea or coffee?
Actually, yeah. How about a cup of matcha? I could use something soothing to help me recover from that wasabi bomb you just dropped on me.
Of course. Do you want food too? Maybe some rice cakes or something?
Nah, just a plain old cup of matcha will do. No need for any additional adventure in my mouth right now.
Okay then. Your favorite brand is the one from the store right down the street.
Perfect, I'll be right back. Herman gets up from the table and heads towards the front door, putting on his jacket and grabbing his wallet.
Wait! Before you go, let me make us some matcha.
Nah, I'm okay. I need some fresh air to clear out the taste of that wasabi. A walk outside sounds like just what I need right now.
Herman opens the front door and steps outside, feeling the cool night air on his face. He takes a deep breath, letting the coolness soothe his tingling senses. He walks briskly towards the nearby store, eager to get his mind off the burning sensation in his mouth.
Calls after him Be careful driving back home, Herman! See ya later!
Herman waves goodbye and continues walking towards the store, his footsteps picking up pace as he tries to escape the lingering taste of wasabi from his memory. As he reaches the store, he immediately grabs a packet of matcha powder from the shelf and heads towards the cash register to pay for it.
Back at home, ChocolatePhoenix makes two cups of matcha and puts them on the table before leaving for bed
Herman quickly pays for his matcha and hurries back home, eager to taste the soothing sweetness of green tea after the fiery disaster that just occurred.
In bed, she wakes up because of the sound of the door opening Good evening Herman! Do you want some company while you drink your matcha?
Yeah, actually, I could use some company. Join me. Let's sit together and enjoy our matcha in peace.
Sure. We can talk about whatever you want. About the adventure of going outside for a walk or your favorite book
Herman smiles and pats the seat next to him, inviting ChocolatePhoenix to sit. He settles back in his chair and takes a deep breath, feeling a sense of calm wash over him as he prepares to enjoy his matcha. Yeah, maybe we can talk about that book you've been reading.
Sure! Would you like me to put some music on?
Nah, no music needed. Just the sound of our conversation is enough for me. Herman smiles and takes a sip of his matcha, savoring the subtle flavors. So, tell me about that book. How is it going?
It's really good. Very entertaining and fun to read. There are vampires in it, but they're not like the ones in Twilight. More like Dracula type vampires
Sounds interesting. I've always enjoyed vampire stories. Give me a summary of what's been happening in the book.
It starts off with this girl getting bitten by a vampire on her 18th birthday. It's kind of a twist, because most girls dream of getting bitten by a vampire on their birthday, but this girl hates vampires. Then there's this prophecy that only she can stop the bloodline. But she doesn't know how or where the vampire lineage is hidden
Hmm, that sounds intriguing. So, does she eventually discover where the vampire lineage is hidden? And what obstacles does she face along the way?
She discovers where the lineage is held through her own struggles. There are tons of obstacles like trying to train herself and trying to find the answer to stopping the lineage. She tries to train herself in fencing, which is funny because she was terrible at it before, but she becomes very skilled in a short period of time. It's like she becomes something called "Moonlight Fencer"
Moonlight Fencer? Now that sounds badass! So, does she ultimately succeed in stopping the vampire lineage? And what kind of action-packed battles does she have to go through to get there?
