His human hand is quite delicate, thanks Shinji. Kija winces as his hand is smacked away, and there's a small bruise over the fair skin of his wrist. ]
Ah! [ Shinji's right, though ..... Some people don't like to be touched, and it was rude to just go ahead without asking first. He was just so desperate to make things right, he keeps doing everything wrong. ]
My apologies! I only wanted to help!! [ WHY CAN'T HE DO ANYTHING RIGHT??? Kija deflates now, looking a bit more miserable. How will he ever make it up to this stranger ... ] I am very sorry ...
Not that he's particularly susceptible to them - only on dogs, not humans - but there's something kind of pathetic about this whole scene: the still smoking stove behind them, the stain spreading across his shirt, the cringing man in front of him. It's not really a scene he ever wants repeated, which really only leaves him one course of action.
He sighs again, and grabs the towel from Kija's hands. ]
I was trying to make soup! I have seen the way my granny would make it, though I never tried it myself, and now that I do not have the village chefs to cook for me, I wanted to do it for myself!
[ He may have messed up a lot of things, though. Like salt for sugar and all that. ]
[ No.....he just has a sense of self-preservation.....
Also, how the heck does anyone burn soup?? There's so much liquid! Carefully, Shinjiro sidles back towards the covered pot, lifting up the board on top to get a gently whiff of what's inside - and then promptly scrunches up his face in disgust. ]

[ It's a goddamn travesty is what it is. ]
