Flayn: Ahhh, tonight's meal looks exquisite! Time for me to make the most of this opportunity. MmmMmMmm!
Dedue: Are you all right? Slow down. Your dinner is not going anywhere.
Flayn: I am not sure it is your business to tell me how to consume my meal. You must admit this food is absolutely delectable! I have not eaten something this tasty in ages!
Dedue: Well, good.
Flayn: I suppose my enthusiasm is a tad overwhelming. Do you happen to know who cooked this meal?
Dedue: I did.
Flayn: You are the chef?!
Dedue: Today, yes.
Flayn: I...I do not think I have ever been brought to tears by a meal... Dedue, you are a chef without peer! Why, that was truly more delicious than anything I have eaten in all my years!
Dedue: I highly doubt that.
Flayn: No need for modesty. I could certainly never make anything even remotely so delicious. Hmm, that gives me an idea. Will you please teach me how to cook such delicacies as the one I ate just now?
Dedue: You want me to teach you to cook?
Flayn: Indeed! I have never been so emotional over cuisine-- you must teach me your ways!
Dedue: Very well. But only if you are serious and do not quit halfway through.
Flayn: I would not dream of it! Thank you, Chef Dedue!

Dedue: Chop the vegetables into bite-size pieces. After that, skim the top layer off the pan. Be mindful of the heat.
Flayn: Certainly, Chef Dedue.
Dedue: There is no need to call me that. Are you displeased?
Flayn: No, not in the slightest! I just got momentarily sleepy. It happens to me from time to time... Let me see...
Dedue: First, chop the vegetables.
Flayn: Coming right up, Che-- Er, Dedue!
Dedue: Good.
Flayn: I am so bored... Day in and day out, it is nothing but dicing vegetables and waiting for water to boil. I want to feel like I am actually cooking. It is not as though I do not know the basics... He could at least let me hold the spatula sometime...
Dedue: Next, we peel the vegetables.
Flayn: Chef Dedue, I was hoping to speak with you regarding something that has been on my mind.
Dedue: Speak?
Flayn: Surely you have noticed my skill while wielding pans and knives. Therefore, I think it is time you taught me how to cook-- beyond all this water boiling and vegetable chopping business.
Dedue: Impossible.
Flayn: But why?!
Dedue: All must be done in the proper sequence. And the first step here, whether you like it or not, is to learn to use the tools perfectly.
Flayn: Come now! You have seen how I use a ladle! You know I'm good for it. Hmph. He has left me no option but to take matters into my own hands. Stubborn you may be, Chef Dedue, but I will show you the true meaning of delicious!

Flayn: Er...hello there, Dedue... I just want to say that I am really, terribly sorry.
Dedue: For what?
Flayn: I, um... I tried to cook. On my own. It was an absolute disaster. Adding that seasoning... Adding all that seasoning. Ugh, what a mistake.
Dedue: Mistakes happen.
Flayn: But Chef-- that is, Dedue! I defied your instructions!
Dedue: Quite blatantly, I might add.
Flayn: I tried to cook before I had gained mastery over the tools. I have been a terrible student... Are you going to stop teaching me now?
Dedue: Is that what you want?
Flayn: Not in the slightest. I desperately want to learn from you.
Dedue: As you were, then.
Flayn: You... I... Truly?!
Dedue: You have not disappointed me. The food itself tasted awful, of course. But there was more to it than that. I could feel the thought you put into it. The wish to please others. To be faithful to what you've learned.
Flayn: You...you actually ate the food I made?
Dedue: I did. The ingredients were chopped to perfection. You also seem to have learned how to handle fish without my instruction.
Flayn: I learned by watching you.
Dedue: You have talent. One day you will surpass me.
Flayn: I was certain you would be angry with me. It is decided, then. Someday, you will exclaim that something I have made is delicious. I do not quite know how many years it will take, but I am willing to rise to the challenge. Please, help me get there!
Dedue: I will. However long it takes, I look forward to it. Now, your next lesson will consist of the selection and seasoning of ingredients.
Flayn: Of course, Chef-- er, Dedue, rather.
Dedue: Call me whatever you want.
Flayn: Oh! This is so exciting! Let me see... Chef Dedue! Master Chef Doodah? Ooh, Supreme Chef Deddie-pie!
Dedue: I suppose I've already committed.
Flayn: Oh, I know! Chef Deddles!
