Nothing, technically. They're just a little bland compared to the good shit.

[ she looks over at him rummaging through the cabinets, but shakes her head at what she pulls out. andy has also eaten baking chocolate, because it was there, not just the chips. still not the right kind. she can't bear to leave a disappointing chocolate impression. ]

No, was there anything smaller? Maybe with a shinier wrapper. That one's mostly for cooking, like the chips, but they're both less sweet than the real deal.

[Kazuma frowns at what he's holding, then returns to the cupboard. Then, looking at the selection, decides that it's silly for him to try and pick something out when he has no idea what he's looking at, so he ends up grabbing everything he can hold that looks even slightly similar to that description. When he returns to the counter where Andy is working, he unceremoniously dumps the lot at the end of it.

There are some regular chocolate bars mixed up in there, but there's just as much that isn't relevant: white chocolate, salted caramel, some pre-packaged cookies and crackers, and various other candies and snacks that Kazuma also doesn't recognize and has yet to try, because why limit yourself to one new experience when you don't have to? Included is a bag of konpeito--something Kazuma was surprised to see--just in case Andy has never tried any herself, so Kazuma has at least something to trade.]

I thought this was simpler.

[ you know what? that's a solid strategy. andy approves, and now there's so much fucking candy to choose from. she breaks into a bit of a grin, a laugh silent on her lips, and she's annoyed at herself for being full of bread dough and unable to pick at some better chocolate herself just yet. that was the purpose behind the chips, to satiate the craving, but now she wants more. ]

We'll get you sorted. Go for the Ghirardelli or Godiva. Milk chocolate. [ she'll gesture at them, even with her dough hands. there are better chocolates, but those feel like a better starter. she can't have him spoiled from the onset and constantly chasing after the really expensive luxury shit. ] Start with the basics and go from there if you want to try any variants or fillings.

[Good thinking, considering Kazuma gets fussy about the weirdest things. He certainly doesn't need the encouragement. At Andy's suggestion, he fishes out a brightly colored square from the bag marked "Ghirardelli," but rather than open it, he turns over the strange packet-like item with visible confusion.]

Er, pardon my ignorance, but how are you meant to open this?

[Disposable foil is a new one too :(]

[oiorpata]

[ luckily for andy, the dough is approaching the settling time, and she'll be able to stop kneading it and pick out some goodies for herself. ]

[ but she nods approval for his choice. ]

Tear it open. There should be an edge with ridges somewhere, but most of the time I just fucking rip it from anywhere that works.
