Chapter Title: Cooking for Two


Trisha Elric was definitely in command of the kitchen, in their household. She was amazing at cooking, of course, so his Dad belonged nowhere in the vicinity, and yet Envy… Well, he had gotten used to cooking for the two of them, over the course of his (rather long) life, and it was weird to not have to do that anymore. It left him feeling rather… bereft. Sure, when he had first picked it up, it had sort of been more out of necessity than anything else, but in time he had grown to like it.

Taking a deep breath, Envy spoke up. "Trisha?" he asked, as the woman looked up from where she was working on dinner over the stove. "Can I help you cook?" He was rewarded with both a smile, and an instant explanation of what they would be having, and what he could do, and oh, how much experience did he have? It was nice, and Envy allowed himself to melt into the easy motions, the easy conversation and smiles, marveling at the warmth that was behind it all. Was this what it was like to have a mother? If so… He envied those that had them.

…Huh. If he had known that asking to help would make her happy, as well, maybe he would've done it sooner.
