“Tal vez escribir cartas a una mujer sea como […]. Creo que, al enfriar la emoción con lenguaje, las cartas de amor sin amor logran con mayor éxito la contención que vuelve carne y fluido el delirio amoroso. Virginia espera dejar atrás la cama y retomar su batalla contra el mundo: «Y no estás aquí para transformarme». ¿Qué único poder debería tener una mujer sobre otra sino el de transformarla? ¿Os suena de algo, señora? En sus cartas Virginia le reclama a Vita que la acuse de no tener sentimientos o de inventarse «frases encantadoras» que «le restan aspectos a la realidad». Sobra vida en Vita”. [...] ¿Qué puedo decir sobre eso sino sentirme más Vita que Virginia y a veces más Virginia que Vita? ¿En cuál de ellas se reconoce usted? Virginia insiste en que ella intenta decir lo que siente. Pero entiendo que no sea suficiente para Vita, que busca algo más. Woolf aúlla por historias frescas. Y Vita las tiene, las genera, las encarna. [...] Todo lo que latió en el encuentro entre estas dos mujeres, pero lo que se recordará será un gran libro, mi bien, otro libro de Virginia Woolf (y este puñado de cartas como anexo, un mapa alternativo de lectura). Ningún libro de Vita. Que salió a juguetear en los bosques con Mary Campbell, con Mary Carmichael o Mary Seton, mientras Virginia parecía celebrar sus trucos y reírle las gracias con deleite: «Ninguna de esas soy yo, maldita seas. En fin». Tan distante, tan razonable, tan, en fin, europea” [...] Perdone que me desvíe con asuntos mundanos. Perdone que centre todo en el amor. Es verdad, parece un vicio sentir y resentir que haya sido una mujer la que derribara más muros que nadie [...] Quizá solo he querido regalarle estas cartas para invitarla a poner una vela en el altar fascinante de la creación colaborativa que es la pasión lésbica, tan parecida al deseo por una misma. Dígame por favor si me invento este romance porque entonces saldré a celebrarlo. Su burra Gabriela W.”

“This texture... you used an aspic." "Bingo! Those golden cubes under the egg... are a chicken aspic! So what's an "aspic"? Easy! It's a jelly made from the chilled broth of gelatin-rich meats and fishes. I simmered chicken wings in bonito broth seasoned with saké and light soy sauce. This drew the chicken's natural savory flavor and gelatin into the broth. I quickly chilled the resulting broth until it gelled, and then cut it into small cubes." "It was the aspic he was making in that enormous pot." "Sprinkle the cubes over piping-hot rice... and the rich chicken aspic will melt and coat the egg curds with a "ploop"!" I see. In other words... the aspic is really a thick, rich and savory chicken soup! The full-bodied and salty flavor of the aspic broth... brings out the soft, mild sweetness of the egg curds perfectly. Not only that, each bite is a heaven of fluffy smoothness. In every way, the aspic is emphasizing and magnifying the deliciousness of the eggs!”

“They look like glittering golden cubes!" "And they're melting across the chicken breasts?!" "Wait a minute... OH! MORPHING FURIKAKE RICE!" "WELL, WELL! WHAT HAVE WE HERE?!" "The chicken's already savory and robust aroma... ... is growing even richer and stronger!" "A Furikake topping? At a glance, these look like cubes of some variety of aspic..." "The First and Second Seats were already over the moon about this dish." "Are you saying it is now even more delicious?!" "Aah! Unbelievable! Already the rich scent of roasted chicken tickles the nose!" "Hmph..." "This...? This flavor! I can hardly believe it! The warmth of the chicken has caused the aspic cubes to begin melting into a thick jelly... ... adding new and luxuriant layers to both the flavor and the texture of the dish! The salty savoriness of its flavor seeps quietly into the crispy rice crackers... ... while the scrambled-egg sauce is infused with an even more decadently creamy texture! "The sheer perfect balance of the dish is positively divine! Flavors clash and meld, amplifying and accenting each other in complete harmony! What creative originality! Who would have thought that one simple addition would add so much depth and complexity to the entire dish?!”

“Wait a minute... that dish. I've seen it before! It's the Tempura-Egg Rice Bowl he served me before! "Now, I've made two servings of this. One for you, of course, Book Master. The other one... how about you taste it, Nakiri." "Yukihira?" "Don't confuse this for the dish I served you that other time. See, that old dish wasn't enough to make you say it was good... ... so I've been secretly working on some new twists I could add to it. Eat! Erina Nakiri! Dig in. I call it my Soma-Style... ... Eggs Benedict over Rice... ... fit for a Queen.”

“You do remember what my father said, right? The entire revolution came about because of something that happened between him and your father, Joichiro Saiba! I... I just don't understand anymore. It's all so confusing. It feels like the one thing I had left to believe in is... is falling apart around me..." "Well... I did get that something big went down years ago, yeah. But just because something happened way in the past doesn't mean I'm going to change what I'm doing now. That was then, and this is now. And right now... ... there's stuff going on I'm not sure I agree with. So I'm gonna do something about it. That's all.”
