"It's not like I was that occupied elsewhere," he points out, trying not to sound bitter about the fact that he's as stuck here as he'd been the day before and the day before that. He dislikes being so far away from the people he loves and he doesn't mean to take it out on anyone here, but it's a sort of hard thing to ignore. "We'll see how long I stay," he jokes, still in French. "Depends on the food. I'm not a half bad chef myself, you know."
