## Dialogue

### English Translation

**Beelzebub:** Lucifer, it looks like it's our turn to cook dinner.

**Lucifer:** So it is.

**Beelzebub:** I want everyone to try something I've been really into recently. So I was thinking of making of shadow goose meat and egg lasagna.

**Lucifer:** Mmhm, good idea.

**Beelzebub:** First we need to make the sauce. Place onions, mince, and tomatoes in the frying pan. Then add stock, salt, pepper, and sugar while stirring.

**Lucifer:** Okay, You're doing well.

**Beelzebub:** Okay, now to try it. \*glug\* \*nom\* \*nom\* Hmm...Err... I'm still not sure... I'll try some more. \*glug\* \*glug\* \*glug\*

**Lucifer:** You're taste testing straight from the frying pan?

**Beelzebub:** Hmm, I think I need to try some more. \*glug\*

**Lucifer:** That's a big taste test.

**Beelzebub:** All right.

**Lucifer:** Do you have a better idea of the flavor yet?

**Beelzebub:** One more taste.

**Lucifer:** Another?!

**Beelzebub:** \*glug\* \*glug\* \*glug\* \*glug\* \*glug\*

**Lucifer:** Are you sure you're not just drinking the sauce?

**Beelzebub:** Okay, this should be all right! It's perfect!

**Lucifer:** Congratulations on figuring out the flavor. However, the sauce, it's all gone.

**Beelzebub:** What?!

**Lucifer:** Maybe that was one too many taste tests.

**Beelzebub:** I just wanted everyone to enjoy something that was truly delicious.

**Lucifer:** Your heart is in the right place but...

**Beelzebub:** Let's make it one more time. First, onion, mince, and tomatoes in the frying pan. Then stock, salt, pepper, and sugar while stirring.

**Lucifer:** Okay. You're doing well.

**Beelzebub:** Okay, one little tast- \*glug\* \*glug\* \*glug\*

**Lucifer:** Straight from the frying pan again...

**Beelzebub:** \*glug\*

**Lucifer:** This one's long.

**Beelzebub:** \*gulp\*

**Lucifer:** I-I'm sure that's enough. I-I think you can stop now. That's way too many big of a taste. Isn't it hot?! Wait, wait. Hold on. Give it a break. Stop!

**Beelzebub:** Aaaaaah!

**Lucifer:** You drank it all...

**Beelzebub:** Pheeeew! Time for another.

**Lucifer:** Hey...

**Beelzebub:** Oh, sorry. You wanted a taste too, didn't you Lucifer?

**Lucifer:** No, that's not at all it! We're not going to get past making the sauce at this rate!

**Beelzebub:** Right... The goal is to make a lasagna... \*munch\* This time, I'll cut back on how much I try.

**Lucifer:** You say as you literally bite into one of the onions! You're appetite is as terrifying as ever.

**Beelzebub:** \*munch\* I seriously want to make everyone something nice to eat. \*munch\* \*munch\* This is good \*munch\* \*munch\*

**Lucifer:** Okay, I've got it. I'll watch over your taste tests.

**Beelzebub:** Does that mean you'll test my taste tests?

**Lucifer:** Yes, this will be a "taste test test."

**Beelzebub:** Got it. But you've got to let me investigate whether this "taste test test" is fair or not.

**Lucifer:** So you're going to test my "taste test test"?

**Beelzebub:** Yes, it will be "taste test test test".

**Lucifer:** Sounds fair enough.

**Beelzebub:** Okay, let's make the sauce. Frying pan, onion, mince, tomato. Stock, salt, pepper, sugar, stir.

**Lucifer:** Okay you're doing well.

**Beelzebub:** Here I go. I'm taking the ladle and tasting the sauce.

**Lucifer:** "Taste test test" — start! First, this ladle is way too big! Use this spoon.

**Beelzebub:** "Taste test test test" — launch! That spoon is way too small! I'm using this spoon.

**Lucifer:** "Taste test test test test" — is a go! THAT spoon is way too big! It's basically another ladle! Use this spoon.

**Beelzebub:** "Taste test test test test test" — initiated!

**Leviathan:** UUUUM!

**Beelzebub:** Levi...

**Leviathan:** Is dinner ready yet? We're starving out here.

**Lucifer:** Sorry to keep you waiting.

**Beelzebub:** We'll get right into it!

**Leviathan:** I, uh, okay whatever I guess.

**Beelzebub:** I'll make enough for everyone to taste test!

**Leviathan:** Give us dinner, not taste test!
