The Man who walks the Path of Heaven

[path_of_heaven]

[There's a delicious aroma wafting from a large building. The smell is overpowering in the area and it's the taste of delicious food.

Inside, the smell gets stronger as it leads you to a large kitchen. It sounds and smells like a dozen chefs are hard at work, preparing a banquet, but in reality, there is only one man.]

...

[Tendou opens the book and starts flipping through it.]

... ... ... What.

[riderpedia]

I wrote about your life.

I'm not good at a lot, but I can do research really well. So this seemed like the most appropriate thing to do...

[Philip clearly has a loose definition of 'appropriate'.]

[path_of_heaven]

I'm not sure appropriate is the word... ...

[Tendou starts reading... ... and keeps reading... and actually starts seeming pretty into this.]

This is the most important book I've ever held in my hands.

Thank you.

[riderpedia]

You're welcome.

[Philip seems very pleaased at how well this went over. He's never done anything like this before.]

It was very interesting to research... You've had a very interesting life.

[path_of_heaven]

My life was written like a book before it even began. A plot was set and I carried it to its climax.

... then I did some rewrites.

[riderpedia]

I like books.

And the editing process is very important.

[path_of_heaven]

Very.

Thank you.

[Tendou closes it and puts it on a nearby shelf while he goes back to cooking.]

Anything you'd like for tonight?

[riderpedia]

[Philip just smiles and sits at the table.]

It's to thank you for taking care of me... I guess it's too late to be a Mother's Day gift, but I still wanted you to have it.

Anything is fine. You've already started, so whatever you're making is good.
