They had now reached the end of the stairs; Valerion closed the door to the practice tower. They walked through the main room to the living area by the fireplace. "That's alright", Valerion said. "Then, what about... scrambled eggs and ham? Potato frittata, maybe?".

"Hmm", Adrien said, his forehead furrowed, "I don't think I want anything savory".

Valerion sat himself on the couch; he dropped his head backwards, causing his dark hair to fall on his eyes momentarily before he swung forwards again. He moved his hair out of his face with his fingers, then turned towards Adrien, who was standing in front of him, leaning against the side of the table. Valerion smiled: "How do you feel about hot chocolate?".

Adrien jumped slightly on the spot, and he grinned; Valerion chuckled in response. "That surely looks like a yes", he commented.

"It is!", Adrien laughed. "Thank you so much".
