Don’t mind her, Gyre— she’s just staring at him in complete and utter horror at his request for raw eggs. His diet is never, ever, ever going to be normal to her. She also slides her phone onto her lap, not wanting to risk him thinking she’s trying to get him on camera. She remembers day one’s threat well!!!

It takes her a while to regain her bearings and courage, but when she finds a moment, she looks at him suddenly, locking eyes from across the table. “Can you eat raw cookie dough without getting sick?”
