"Mm, you're quite passionate about this, aren't you? I find that quite admirable," she says, smiling to encourage. "But as the expert, I leave it to you to decide the details. Frankly, I'm much less likely to have a refined palate. As a soldier, I'm accustomed to more…pragmatic meals."

Kogeki chuckles. "Sensei. I grew up with the Spider. Im taking it gentle cause of your ...um..girlfriend? Wife? Anyways yeah. But don't worry. I may have studied with the Crane but I am still a Spider. My food has STRENGTH! The power to wrestle taste into submission! Strong confident flavors that even when made gentle enough to not overpower traditional recpies stand strong like a foundation."

She joins in the chuckle, amused and a little impressed at the young man's passion.
"Let's go with girlfriend for now. But let's see if you can deliver, hmm?" she says, challenging him a little bit. "How about lunchtime tomorrow? Consider it an audition, of a sort. If you impress her, I'll be sure to ask you to cook for us again. But of course, I'll be happy to pay for any expenses and a little something for your time. Does a koku and a half plus ingredients sound reasonable?"

He takes a breath. "Uh ok.. mind if I save the Fugu for another time then? I don't wanna get it wrong. I can find something else but a Koku and a half sounds great thank you." he says with a bright nod.

"Of course. I wouldn't ask you to prepare anything you didn't feel confident making," she answers. "So, how much time do you think you'll need to set up?"

Kogeki smiles. "I can do it an hour or so before. I work pretty fast. Had to learn how when Otomo Katsumi hired me to cater her party."

She visibly shudders at the mention of the Otomo's name. A few less than pleasant encounters with that one, to be sure. She puts the discomfort aside, though. She doesn't know the full details of that story, after all, and has to assume the Otomo wouldn't have hired the young man if he couldn't deliver.
"Unfortunately, I don't think it would be advisable for me to be bringing any students to my quarters. Would you be alright preparing it here so I can bring it to my quarters when it's done? Or I could ask her to meet me here, but she won't be too comfortable with that."

Kogeki smiles. "Whatever is easier Sensei. Your kitchen. The school kitchen. Tarik-san once hired me to work on a grill he set up under a tent in the rain. If I am gonna be the Toku of cooking one day then I need to be good at cooking in any circumstance."

She nods. "Here, I think, would be more practical. I already have enough rumors about me bringing students to my quarters for Fortunes knows what. I'll just bring the food over to my quarters." A pause. "Feel free to prepare some for yourself, while you're at it. Wouldn't do to have the chef not taste his own work, I think."

Kogeki smiles. "Sounds like a plan then. I can make it here and you can transport it." he says with a nod. "Pretty stoked to be able to help you with this Sensei."
