I mean, I can see why. The first person to be all magical and stuff in your family in a really long time? Totally worth celebrating!

[Still gonna be watching him, though, carefully, she doesn't trust him with spice.]

[goldencharms]

My mom can do magic, too... But that's different, I think!!

[ HE'S BEING CAREFUL WITH THE SPICE-- it's the sweetness she needs to watch. ]

[aididitmyway]

How's it different...?

[goldencharms]

Well, she married into the Asim family!! You can't be the heir if you're a girl.

[aididitmyway]

But it's still technically in your mom's family, right??

Also, that's stupid. So if you were a girl, you wouldn't be heir at all?

[goldencharms]

Yeah! That's traditionally how it is!

[ he just laughs at her insistence, she's got him there. ]

[aididitmyway]

Look, no offense, but that's a stupid tradition.

[goldencharms]

Eh? Well... I don't disagree but...

[aididitmyway]

But?

[goldencharms]

I don't think I can change it.

[aididitmyway]

You could once you take over, right?

[goldencharms]

Mm... I could...

[ hm...

he shrugs ]

But that's a long way away, anyway! So, there's no point in worrying about it now.

[aididitmyway]

Right...

But it's something to k eep in mind!

[goldencharms]

Yeah!

[ BACK TO COOKING, he is definitely going in on the sweetness. that's the right way, right?? ]

[aididitmyway]

[She sneaks a spoon in from time to time to check, and after a bit, stops him from adding more.]

It's perfect where it is!
