[ oh sure blame your friends for you mistakes, fran... wrow... ]
I would have missed out on a lot of precious things, if I'd kept that job. Ah- it was a job at the train station's cafeteria. Cooking for anyone and everyone passing through, pretty much!
...I would have expected to live until the average.
[ imagine dying at the age of thirty. except, well, he is from victorian england and the lifespan isn't exactly that long back then so this may actually blow up in ludger's face??? ]

perhaps a little unexpected but— ]
You really do enjoy cooking for others, don't you?
no subject
I know my cooking is good, but knowing that someone else is savoring it - that just makes it better.
[ hmmm, thinking about that Cardia person... or how close Fran is with Cantarella these days... ]
You should learn to cook something.
no subject
I know how to cook. It's not nearly as good as your's or anything special, but I'm capable of making something that can be enjoyed.
[ he won't be burning down any kitchens or banned from cooking... ]

no subject
and look. there's a difference between not eating and not knowing how to cook. ]
no subject
... Maybe you should learn some more. And then you have to eat the results of your lessons.
no subject
Is this a not-so-secret plan of your's to get me to eat more?
no subject
[ spirits forbid he tries to get people to maintain a regular dining schedule ]
no subject
I promise that I eat plenty.
no subject
[ even when he was living the grind life, he made sure to eat at regular intervals! what's Fran's excuse!!! ]
no subject
don't mind fran if he's just going to pat ludger on the head twice. ]
I promise you that I'm much better with my eating habits normally. Things are just a bit dire here so I'm a bit more forgetful than I'd normally be.
no subject
Losing your memory in your old age, huh? That's why you've got to form some proper habits while you're still young.
no subject
O, old? I'm only five years older than you.
[ and he can't say anything about "proper habits" really. what kind of researcher has "proper habits" we need to ask ourselves. ]
no subject
[ none of them do and that's why they all spontaneously disintegrate!! ]

You know what I mean, Fran. But don't worry, I'm sure someone here knows how to reanimate your dust.
[ maybe Y'shtola ]
no subject
I don't think I'd want myself to be reanimated if it was my time to go. [ ... ] If I'm killed here, then I suppose that's a different matter.
no subject
Fran, do people explode into dust when they die back in your home world?
[ is it just... normal to him. ]
no subject
.... .... ]
It's not a normal phenomena, but it's not like it would be impossible.
no subject
[ hey, man, what the hell ]
But is it rare? Or virtually unheard of?
no subject
[ but you just never know!! ]
