Work Text:
-Takiya
Fafnir called out to his human roommate.
-What is it Faf-kun?
Takiya answered him from the kotatsu across the room while continue to work on his up-coming doujinshi project.
Fafnir, standing still in front of their kitchen cabinet
-There is no curry left.
His tone seems irritated
-Oh, sorry Faf-kun, I forgot to buy them when I got back from work today. I didn’t know we ran out that fast.
Suddenly being reminded by his grumpy dragon, Takiya awkwardly laughed and apologized.
-Should I go and get some at the convenient store right now?
Fafnir stays silent for a minute until Takiya had to call his name again
-Faf-kun?
Fafnir finally raised his eyes from the already emptied stacks of mild curry to look at the man who is waiting for his answer. He glances at Takiya with a complex look but so brief it can easily be missed.
-I shall prepare dinner.
Takiya expression is unrecognizable behind his unrealisticly thick glasses with ridiculous swirls on both lenses. 30 seconds later, he snapped back from some universe he just drifted into after hearing that simple 5 words sentence from Fafnir.
-Then I shall look forward to dinner today then.
Takiya let out a relaxed sigh and proceeded to work on his sketches again.

*5 minutes later*
The sounds of knife on a chopping board, water boiling in a pot and pencil scribbles on paper. All followed by the comfortable silence of both people in the room.
Time passed and the going atmosphere was then broken by the clacking of plates and footsteps getting closer and closer to the kotatsu.
Takiya quickly set his work away, cleaning up the table while Fafnir waits for him with plates in both hands.
-You should have called me to help set the table Faf-kun
Takiya says with his exaggerated high-pitched otaku accent.
-Hurry up and eat
Fafnir just shut Takiya up and ignored him by focusing on his own plate.
Takiya just smiles gently at him and starts to inspect the dish served to him. Unexpectedly, it looked like a noodle soup with clear broth and vegetables but there are some quite questionable minced meat inside too. It’s purple-blackish and definitely not normal pork or beef from this world.
Takiya froze and stare at the plate until he had gathered enough courage to ask the one who is sitting across him:
-Faf-kun…what meat is this?
Fafnir movements stop
Takiya gulps, waiting for an explanation
-…
Fafnir turns his face away from Takiya, showing pure painful disappointment. His face twitching and frowning, still not saying anything to Takiya.
Then, he surprisingly speak up
-Just eat it
Takiya smiles at him with the “handsome sparkling professional office worker style”
-No
