Roast chicken may very well make an appearance on the dinner menu, but I will manage.

Then what would you like me to say instead?

[He gives it a moment before following up. Look who has jokes!!]

I will ask him, but I would not anticipate a helpful response. He subsisted primarily on what scraps of food he could find and meat from the demons he felled. Meals like you are accustomed to are a novelty still.

They're not picky. Not that it will stop Griffon from leveling complaints all the same, but they eat what they are given.

There shouldn't be anything else that needs attending to that cannot wait.

[There's a little delay and then another message.]

Thank you for handling the room, Nero.

[Having spent the majority of their lives apart, Vergil is far from devastated with Dante's recent departure. There's also little point in being so upset when he knows their paths will cross again as they always do. Maybe not here in Folkmore, but certainly back home. Still, Vergil would rather not go through Dante's personal effects if he can avoid it. Nero taking on the responsibility of preparing the room for V was something he didn't need to do (only his agreement that V should stay with them for a while was needed), but it is appreciated nonetheless that he took that part on so readily.]
