Did you want a more solid one? And they call me the masochist. [ alhaitham toes the line of sanctity. kaveh gives him a look, and then, with an approving nod: ]

Well, if Tsuruno says so, then I suppose I've done a decent enough job tonight after all. [ there's a grin there as he procures an entire basket of pomegranates, and pushes it between tsuruno and alhaitham. this is followed by a large, empty bowl, and then a set of tea towels. ] Here, the two of you get started on cracking open these. We'll have fresh pomegranate juice for our drink. Be careful while doing so, however, if the seeds rupture, you'll have pomegranate everywhere, but that's what the towels are for. I just want the juice to ruin what you're wearing, Tsuruno.
