There is definitely a skill to it though, otherwise some people wouldn't become master chefs compared to people who work as hard who are middling at best.
[ Jesper doesn't think it is always a question of who works the hardest, he's been cooking for him and his father since he was a child, he has plenty of experience. There's no reason he shouldn't be as good as someone else, but it probably is the lack of true heart in it. Survival, not for fun. He knows Julie's hard on herself though. He's just trying to nonchalantly act like she shouldn't be. ]
They are definitely fun people. I can never be mistaken for anything other than Zemeni so it's good I love that side of the family. We're dark-skinned.
[ There is racism in his world, there's racism in every world, although Grisha have it particularly hard. Throw in Grisha who are also not Ravkan, and it's not a great combination, one of many reasons he's glad he never went there. Jesper is mixed but there's no mistaking his heritage with eyes alone. ]
You would not know my father for my father if you saw him. He's got bright red hair, as white as you, I only have his eyes.
[ There are probably some facial similarities that someone could figure out if they looked at the two of them side by side, but there's no mistaking who he takes after. Jesper was raised with the Zemeni though, it's his father's Kaelish side he knows almost nothing about. He ignores the fact that he has a real taste for redheads, he doesn't think he has daddy issues enough for that particular intrigue. (Probably.)
Jesper doesn't stop her because he enjoys when Julie rambles. ]
He had an attitude for sure when we met but I liked it. [ Jesper loves sass! ] I don't think he was human, if he was, he's very comfortable in his body now. [ It's possible! It just seems like someone uncomfortable in their body would be more obvious, and Jesper's great at reading body language. ] I mean do we know if Nanaue was human once, or is he just another species?
