[An encrypted message, not connected to Libra, will appear on the phone. Instead of the phone giving the usual notification, the Black Order guardians will hear bells ringing in their head until they check the message.
The Black Order guardians know exactly what it means: their bosses have a mission for them. And per usual, the message is annoyingly cryptic]
[They can attempt to respond, but there is no reply as usual. The message itself be completely illegible to anyone who isn't a Black Order member.
OOC: This is the mission for the Black Order for February! Like any of the missions, it's up to you how your character wishes to proceed. It is also up to you if you want your character to disclose mission details to non-black order characters, though the Order itself tends to be secretive.
All Black Order members are receiving the same mission, so if you need to opt out, that's okay! We can just say your character is patrolling the city for the month while other members deal with it.]

Constant this world may be
An invasive demon breaks free
By blades it spreads
Until its in the head
Shred shred shred shred
Deal with this foe
A mission you should not forgo
Remember though
You must get at the root
To get a garden to bear fruit.

[Well, that catches her by surprise. There's a slight pause before she responds]
Yeah. I was in culinary school before I joined the Order. Not that I graduated though.
[Surprise, not only did she go to school it was for something NORMAL]
Are you sure you want me teaching you though? I'm rusty and I can't taste my own cooking, so I don't know if my skills are what they used to be.

Fine.
We'll do it at your place. My kitchen isn't set up and it's better to learn in a kitchen that you'll be using a lot.

Don't mention it.
And seriously, I can't taste things - so be sure to tell me if I make anything that tastes weird. I won't eat you if you insult my cooking.

Good.
What kind of foods do you like? So I know what to teach you first.

Alright. We'll start on pastas then. They're pretty easy to learn and once you got the basics down, you can tailor them to fit all kind of recipes.
Learning sweets can come after you learn the staple foods.
[Because boy you are going to eat healthy ok]

[Someone actually looking forward to spending time with her. That's wild]
Just hope that enthusiasm sticks. We'll have our first lesson after school on Thursday, alright? That should give me enough time to prep.

[Well that sure earns the biggest eyeroll]
Then try acting like an actual adult!
We're already doing a favor for you by letting you stay in that crappy RV despite your age.
But if you keep refusing to take care of yourself properly, eventually someone's gonna intervene.

Ash, you know I was going to culinary school before I got turned into a demon right?
That I LOST my ability to taste because of all this?
And you wanna keep acting like you're hot shit because you keep refusing to learn how to cook?

you're the only one thinkin' I'm acting like anything.
[The asshole in his head wants him to go fight her, but he'd lose and he knows it and absolutely not.
So. Let's try words?]
you ever think that maybe tryin' to tell the guy who grew up on the streets that he can't take care of himself would just I dunno piss him off??

Your list of "things that piss you off" is as long as mine.
But fine. Good job for not starving to death. But that doesn't mean you can learn how to improve things for yourself. That's all we're getting at.

Oh.
[A pause. She could go the emotional route but honestly that feels painful for both of them considering her brother, and Ash's general...spikeness.
Hm. Ok. ]
Okay we gotta do a crash course in cooking then so you can get laid before you go, because your personality isn't doing you favors.
