Hello! If we haven't met, my name is Kyoko Mogami!
I noticed the research center is offering money for new recipes, but it seems like they want it to be some kind of team effort? In any case, I already had some notes written up about some of the dishes I've been able to make satisfactorily since I got here, so if anybody would like to help me with the taste testing and descriptions, I can neaten up those recipes for submission. And of course we would split the compensation!
Oh, but I've also gotten some additions to my replicator since I wrote down those other recipes, so I can do a lot more now! So far I have kombu, bonito flakes, miso, soy sauce, sake, and tofu! So if you want to try something that's not in the notes, just tell me what it is! Nikujaga would be nice, right?
Please contact me if you're interested!

Should I bring it to you?

So you're a fan of Japanese food?
no subject
Um, I suppose I am, if "Japanese" is a culture from your world. The ingredients are used in some dishes of my own, is all. What a coincidence!

Would you tell me a little about your Japan, then?
[ If the nation's name is buried that deep within her memories, the only conclusion she can make is this: it must come from the Old Universe, before they--
Because they had destroyed and remade it all those eons ago. ]

How about something appropriate for the season? ]
Your favorite summer festival there?

But Gion is coming up, now that I think about it! That one was a big deal in my hometown. Let's go with that!
There's something happening pretty much every day of the month, but the parades are supposed to be the main event; every year, a boy is chosen to be paraded around town, and he isn't allowed to set foot on the ground from the 13th to the 17th, after the procession is over. It's a purification ritual to ward off plagues! But it's really all about showing off the beautiful floats.
The real draw is probably the three nights of festivals leading up to it, when the streets are closed for food stalls and games, that kind of thing. Old rich families will let people peek into their homes and see their heirlooms, too. It's a really busy time!
