The answer is Fireball
Kitchi held Chepi closely, both smiling as they enjoyed the peace and comfort their bed offered them, not to mention each other's warmth and touch. However their peaceful trance was soon disrupted by the school's announcement. Kitchi's face dropping a little, reluctant to let go.
Chepi did her best at pretending she didn't hear the school's announcement. It was rare that they had an opportunity to stay in bed and relax like this; she wanted the moment to last. Pressing her face into Kitchi's chest, her voice was muffled as she asked, "Do you think if we say that we're sick they'll believe us?" She wasn't really planning on skipping school just so she could lounge around with her husband in bed, but it was a pleasant thought.
He smiled stroking her hair "I don't think so Chepi." He soon sighed and got out of bed, but picking her up as soon as he got out and taking her into his arms in a princess carry "Come let us take a shower before we go out." He had only recently figured out how to use it and was proud to show her, aside it was quite comfortable in the shower.
Chepi sighed dramatically as she let him carry her. "If I must." It had taken some time to figure out what a shower actually was, and to be completely honest she had no idea how to activate it herself. She had been more interested in how some of the other items in their room worked, like the T.V. and microwave. "Did you figure it out yourself, or did you ask someone?" It was a question asked out of curiosity since she hadn't noticed him messing around with the shower's controls.
"I figured it out on my own." He says proudly, reaching the room and setting her down "I'll show you how it's done." He says taking off his clothes and getting inside and moving the handle to turn it on "Move it this way for hot and this way for cold."
The shower was fairly spacious considering how much smaller the other students were compared to them, but Chepi supposed that the school was used to accepting unusual students. Peeking in, she watched as her husband moved the handle only to yelp in surprise as water suddenly cascaded onto her head. Wide-eyed, she jerked her head out and stared at her husband for a moment. Shock gave way to an easy smile and laughter. "You did that on purpose!" It was a playful accusation, but that didn't mean that she wasn't going to try and get even. Hurriedly getting her clothes off so that she could join him, Chepi planned on splashing Kitchi at least a little bit as payback.
After their fun and washing off they soon exited the shower, each getting the other's backs with the towels. "We need to bring something like this back to the village, everyone would love it."
Chepi glanced at the shower with a frown. "It'd be difficult." She couldn't really tell how anyone was able to somehow fuse this...thing to the wall but they did. Surely it could unattached again, right? Or perhaps a new one could be brought back home? Using a towel to carefully dry her hair, she mentally filed the puzzle away for another time. Throwing her wet towel over Kitchi's head in order to blind him, she slipped out of the bathroom and back into their bedroom for her uniform. Pulling her shirt over her head, she called out, "Should I cook today? Or would you prefer the cafeteria?"
"There are so many foods to try, let's eat there. I can fix dinner for us tonight." He says taking the towel off of his head and moving into the room to change himself, looking over to see her deep in thought again. "We're going to be here for a few years, we can figure things out as we go, no need worry about everything now." He says putting on his bear cloak and moving over to kiss her, since they weren't allowed to in public "At least we can spend today together."
Chepi hummed before admitting, "I know, but I just worry." She didn't bother elaborating. Kitchi knew well enough about how this strange new world excited yet frightened Chepi. As her husband leaned in for a kiss, she gladly responded in kind before wrapping her arms around him. "I'm eager to see what these 'electives' are."
"I know my dear Chepi." He says wrapping his arms around her "I am too, though I can't wait for a day off to spend with you." The anniversary was fast approaching and Kitchi had finally gotten a gift in without her seeing it to surprise her with, though the room was now full of plants replicating the ones they had at home "Next day off we celebrate dear."
She lifted her head up to smile at him. "I'd like that." Leaning up to give him another kiss, Chepi stepped out of Kitchi's embrace. "We should probably go now before we're late." Grabbing her mana tool, she placed the still unfamiliar glasses on her face. Holding out her arm, she said, "Shall we?"
Kitchi smiled and nodded, taking her arm with his own "You look so smart in those glasses." He says calling his mana wyrm over, who sat atop his head once again. "What would you like for dinner tonight?"
Making their way out of their dorm and into the hallway, Chepi hummed in thought. "How about kanuchi?" Luckily, they didn't have to worry about getting things from the stores on the Trade Island. Thanks to Kitchi, they were growing their own ingredients; especially the ones that were harder to get.
Kitchi grinned at Chepi's statement "I don't know why I asked, that's your favorite food." He was thankful the teacher let him take home the extra seeds after he explained his situation. "What do you think of all the strange customs here?"
"They're a bit difficult to adjust to," she mused. The other day a student raised their hand causing Chepi to flinch. Apparently, they just wanted her to slap her hand to their hand? It was some sort of sign of friendship and victory, but it looked like her classmate was about to slap her.
"They are indeed. So many strange customs, I can't remember most of them." He had seen so many alien things he was very confused what was normal and what was not. At least he had Chepi who was in the same boat he was "We should write them down to tell the tribe about."
That got a laugh out of Chepi. "Would you like to count the stars in the sky too? Or the blades of grass in the field? I think you'd have better luck recording all of those than you will with the customs here." Watching the students that were wandering the halls as the passed, she said more fondly, "Although, it isn't a bad idea."
"If one of our tribe members ever comes here it would be helpful." He says with a smile, ignoring the sarcastic remark "Also those things don't sound too bad if I spend that time with you."
Leaning into Kitchi, Chepi just smiled in response. They swung open the doors to the cafeteria and were immediately assaulted by the smells and sounds of the morning crowd. She took a deep breath in, savoring all of the wonderful scents that flooded the air. "Over there!" Pointing to a waffle bar, Chepi said, "Apparently, they put maple syrup on these things called 'waffles'. But the syrup is much sweeter here than the kind we made at home." That seemed to be a running theme at Augurium; many of their pastries were so overwhelming sweet that Chepi could usually only handle them in small doses.
