[the sound of a voice is enough to catch his attention. it's stahn's own fault for salivating over yuri's food. but hey, that's what you get when you leave things unattended!
but if nothing else, he does turn around to look at yuri, ruffling his hair a bit sheepishly.]
Ah... so-sorry.... [it's kind of rude to do what he's doing, right?] I was passing through and just kind of followed the smell...
[ w o w he only left it unattended for just a few moments! how would he have known that he would attract some blonde stray who doesn't know boundaries.
... but it looks like he feels bad for doing so. yep. definitely some stray and not a bandit. ]
So your stomach and sense of smell led you here. Don't you have any food on you?
Mm... I have a couple of sandwiches to hold me over until I get back to Luinis, but...
[he's a bit embarrassed by it, at least. stahn's not completely shameless about this, if only because it's not like he really wants to impose on someone. or... well, steal their food.
he's definitely not a bandit, just a country bumpkin who is a little too earnest and honest for his own good sometimes.]
I guess nothing really beats the smell of a cooked meal like that. I got curious...
[ heh. well, yuri can't argue what stahn said otherwise. a nice cooked meal is always better than a small sandwich. especially as far as things like mabo curry is concerned. he glances over at his cooking as if gauging something.
guess it would be cruel to make this guy leave after this. no harm was done just ... someone who needs help. having just sandwiches all the way to luinis also sucks so. ]
I didn't realize it was trespassing until I was already here!!
[he spits out at first, mostly because he's a little concerned he walked himself into a dangerous situation. not that he can't take care of himself, but he's not really interested in making enemies, especially not over an honest mistake.
...but it doesn't take long before yuri seems to change his tune—which definitely surprises stahn.]
[stahn can't really help himself—his manners are pretty tough to turn off a lot of the time. if he's rude, it usually comes from a place of ignorance to certain types of situations, or just not even realizing it.]
It's really nice to meet you, Yuri! [he's not really sure if he should ask about where yuri is from, or what he's doing camping out this way, so he doesn't press on it too much.]
You must be a really good cook to make something that smells this great while camping!
[ better to have some manners than no manners at all! take it from someone who tends to turn off his manners on certain kinds of people on purpose. ]
It's better than starving. [ he shrugs. his cooking is good but he tends to be modest about most things. this being one of them. it's not really a hobby of his, after all. ] Though I've had to fend my food a few times.
[ from actual animals. not fake!animals like stahn here. ]
Still, it's pretty amazing! I don't think I could make something like this even if I tried, ahaha....
[he can't even be truted to cook rice porridge without it turning up a disaster though. even if stahn doesn't realize he's that bad, he's more than aware that he doesn't really possess the knowledge to actually make something that seems this good.]
I guess there are a lot of monsters and animals out here, though! It must be kind of hard to deal with by yourself.

—Really!?
no subject
[ because really who drools over someone's food without realizing that they're trespassing.
but ... it's an honest mistake. and yuri seems amused by stahn's reaction. ]
There's plenty to go around. Better to feed the hungry than turn a sword on them.

Thanks a lot! [he really means it too. he's so sincere, bowing his head a bit in gratitude—he really is starving for a (sorta) home-cooked meal.
but hey, there is something important here to cover.]
Oh, right! I'm Stahn, Stahn Aileron! [there will be a lot more gratitude to give yuri. but first! introductions.]
no subject
[ hey he's just doing you a favor no need to go bowing your head at him!
but.. ah. that is something that ought to cover, isn't it. ]
Name's Yuri. Yuri Lowell.
