Moira looked over to the boy once she grabbed two knives, a boning knife and a nice looking child-sized chef knife and two cutting boards, "I've been able to do this for awhile now, my mom could do it too.. and she talks like you do.. and I think learning how to cook will help you do something that might make you happy. I know I like cooking, it gets my mind off of a lot of things." She muses a little, making her way over to the boy and handing him the miniature chef knife and showing him how to cut the carrots, celery and onions. "Careful with the knife, it's sharp, but a dull knife is more dangerous than a sharp one."

"Your mom talks like this?" He seemed confused at the idea. "I didn't think humans could talk this way." He watched what she was doing for a moment before carefully starting to cut up his own veggies. "I read mostly... sometimes Felicia brings me books I like. But she can only do it if Myrtle and Christopher are busy."

"Well she's not a human.. she's a Meta like us. She's an Angel and Alice--- My other mom..--- is a Demon.." Moira says softly before she moves to 'fabricate' the chicken, cutting it carefully so she wouldn't cut herself. "Reading is a good hobby and all but don't you feel like doing something else?" She asks curiously, glancing up to Tobias to check up on him.

"I met a girl named Cambria who said she met a boy that was half-demon. Are you related?" He looked up, but had the presence of mind to stop what he was doing with the knife before doing so. "And no. I can't really do much. I get really outta breath if I run too much... Mother and Father don't want me near the animals, Mother says they might hurt me or something. Felicia says it's because they're really big and if I'm not too careful they'll prolly trample me." Tobias returned to what he was doing with a mental sigh.

"I do have two brothers and I think my brother Silas is considered a half-demon.. I think my siblings and I are the only half-breeds in the Academy." She mentions as she works on cutting the legs off of the chicken, humming a little as she 'listens' to the boy. "Well cooking isn't too much work unless you're going to do something that requires a lot of physical activity like baking, which is rather tough if you make bread."

"She said he had leathery wings with feathers on 'em." He shrugged a bit and then moved a small pile of chopped celery out of the way. "Do I have to have the carrots in the soup? I hate mushy carrots." He adopted a sort of pout. He was so used to doing what his parents said that if she said he had to, he'd eat it, but he would really rather not. "It's messy though. I don't like being dirty. Neither does Mother or Myrtle."

"I think that is Silas.. I haven't.. seen him in awhile though..I hope he's okay.." Moira sighs as she works on the chicken breasts, looking up and chuckling when the boy mentioned mushy carrots. "If I promise to not make them mushy, will it be alright if I add them in? If they end up mushy, I can take them out. Is that alright with you?" She asks curiously, figuring that the boy had a decent intake of healthy food, but you could never be too careful.

"If you can keep them crunchy, fine. I don't like it when Myrtle makes it all mushy, but I have to eat it anyway." He sighed and shook his head. "I wouldn't know. She said she met him, that was it. I only met two other kids, but that was before I got these stupid things." He was of course, referring the the horns, wings and tail.

She smiles softly, "If I could take you to the Academy you could meet even more people like us, even Vic. He's an Incubus and he has horns too." She grins a little, "He also has huge wings, but I haven't seen him fly yet.... I'm not sure if he can." Moira laughs a little before she starts to cut up the chicken after putting the 'extra parts' like the bones and what not into a freezer bag and labeling it.

"Mother says I can't go. She didn't say why, but I figure it's because it'll make them look bad if they send me away to boarding school this early. They only just got me, I mean." He rolled his eyes a little. "There's another incubus?" He looked up and stared at her with wide eyes. Now, that was definitely someone he might be interested in meeting. He hadn't met another person quite like himself just yet. Perhaps this person was going through, or had gone through, what he was going through.

Moira nods, "He's the first one I met, actually. If you're one, then that means there's two of you in the Academy. I know there's a handful of 'basic' Angels and Demons.. and I think my Grandma mentioned something about Fairies but I don't think I met any yet." she continues to work on the food, soon washing her hands and putting a stock pot onto the stove and putting some butter and olive oil into it, sliding the mirepoix items into it after it got hot enough.
"There's a Secret Santa event soon, I'm sure your parents will let you partaken in that."

"Yes... I already have a present for the person. He's older than me, though... and I've never met him before. Mother said it would be a good way to make friends... she said I would do better to make friends with angels though, since Father doesn't approve of demons." He frowned quite a bit. That would give way that her assumption of not being loved was correct, but he didn't care about that. He cared that his parents were so open about how much they hated that he wasn't an angel.
