[ Considering how much Ratio hates to waste his time associating with idiots and performing empty pleasantries, it is indeed unusual for him to offer to treat someone to a meal. In fact, that's not all in store he has for Ereshkigal's help, but the gift can come later. Once he's figured out what she likes. ]
Do let me know if you have any favoured cuisines or allergies. I will do my best to accommodate your preferences.
[ Allergy...? No, she thinks not. And favored cuisines, not yet. ]
I do not have any. The only food available in the Underworld was clay and dust. But the surface world has so much variety! So I try to eat something different at each meal.
[ So she wants variety... hm. He can think of a few places that offer little bites of a variety of foods that she might like. He'll have to check their menus again before making a reservation. ]
What is your availability over the next two weeks?
My availability? Do you mean my work times? I'm hoping to get back to full-time in the flower shop and part-time in the cemetery by the middle of the month. But I should still have enough free time.
[ Ratio doesn't respond immediately. Instead, after a few minutes, Ereshkigal might hear the soft noise of something being set down outside her door. ]
I've left a package outside your door. Consider it part of my show of gratitude for your intervention.
[ When Ereshkigal retrieves the package (which turns out to be gift basket) and opens it, she'll find it's a luxurious jasmine-scented bath set. ]
[ She turns around when she hears the noise and then read the message... Did he-- Did he come all the way to her door, put the package down and run away? She didn't know he was that shy! It's kind of cute in a way, honestly. ]
[ Wait, did he say a part of his show of gratitude...? She goes to get the package and-- A gift? A bath set? I-It looks so luxurious! She doesn't spare money for such things, but that still looks like it's three grades above what she usually uses. ]

Is there a fragrance or scent you are particular to?
no subject
I love the scent of freshly cut flowers when I put a bouquet together.
Why do you ask?

I don't know what to say.
Thank you.

But she cries a lot. She's an emotional goddess, okay. ]
