Tell me when you actually perform, I'd love to watch. [ noms her takoyaki ] But you're worried about how you're doing, right? I figured that might help.
Obviously! Where would you be without me? [ but she says it with a wink, so it's. at least. partially a joke. ] If you ever need a break from tough love, I'm here. It's really not my style.

Even my friends are the tough love kind.... [BEING HIS FRIENDS AND CARING ABOUT HIM MEANS NOTHING!!! he hangs out with too many tsunderes]
... it means a lot, though. Seriously.
I'm really glad you're here, Grace.

Deluxe gourmet ramen? Like the little cup noodles? How do you do that?

But I'll make you the real deal soon! It's still my best dish.

Sure, go for it. [ she nudges his leg ] Been a while since I've had a home cooked meal anyway.
no subject
Yeah? Then let me go ahead and take care of that honor for you. Food tastes better when it's fresh and made by a friend, right?
