You are getting far too bold with me, making me get my hands dirty with not a second thought. What makes you think I would not execute you for even asking?
[ As much as he acts offended, he really does not terribly mind if it's coming from Arash. Anyone else, he might not be so keen to accept. ]
However, I did give you my word I would participate in this culinary venture, so you can expect no immediate recourse this time. Tell me more of your joshpara.
Haha! That's right, you're a pharoah. It'd be beneath you, wouldn't it? But it's not so bad, is it? Not everyone can say they've been fed by the hands of a generous ruler.
[ He has respect for good leaders, just like his former king in another lifetime. ]
Let's see... Joshpara is a delicacy! It's a little pouch of dough, filled with flavour, and boiled in stew. It's so juicy, it melts in your mouth! Ah, just thinking about it makes my mouth water. We're going to have to work hard to make them perfect. Only the best for you, okay?
A pharaoh should know and understand every level and function in his kingdom, which does include culinary exploits. It is not as beneath me as you may think.
[ Besides, he enjoyed fixing treats with Nefertari and Moses when they were all young. It might be nice to relive the feeling. ]
And this Joshpara will be an easy conquest. I will make the best-tasting kind you have tasted, and once spoiled, you will eat no one else's.
Will you despise me if I forever ruin all other Joshparas for you?
If you're sure. I just remember feeling good with them.
I'll be happy if you wanted to feed me the best Joshpara, though. I wouldn't want any less for anyone, and you wouldn't either. So no, I wouldn't hate you.
But you might have to compete with me for my own! I'm pretty good at them, after all. Will you be mad if I show you up?
[ He hears it, alright. It makes him smile where he is, too, which happens to be close to home! It's strange, how radiant his presence is. Overpowering and frightening, but warm, and he can feel it from here, too. ]
I hope you won't, King of Kings. I'd be sad if you did! Here, how about I send you the recipe, first? I'll be home in a bit. We can go out together and get the ingredients on the morrow, yeah? This'll be fun! See you soon, okay?

If anyone can give me a decent competition, it would be you, Archer.
However, you should know by now, I will not take it lightly.
Do not expect to easily show me up because of your greater familiarity with the cuisine.

as I know you will do for me.
Until then, Archer.
