He was on children's duty today. That meant that he would have lunch with them and that also meant paying more attention to the kids than to his own meal, sometimes he skipped eating altogether which his daughter didn’t like. Athena was a very responsible young girl, he was proud of her, and if it weren’t for her he would be doing a whole lot of things wrong just because it was easier but she didn’t let him so he had come up with solutions for it. He tried to eat fast instead during children's duty to get some food into himself or, some other times, he waited to eat after lunch so while he ate a little later he still ate. Given how he sometimes skipped breakfast, he couldn’t always skip lunch as well and he didn’t want Athena to worry about him. It should be his duty as the father to worry about her instead.
He needed to arrange the meals for the kids today. He had a list of things some kids would absolutely refuse to eat in his hand and walked towards the kitchen to speak to the cooks. He entered the building and looked around, spotting a kitchen hand he had seen several times before, he went straight to him. Ethan was his name if he wasn’t mistaken and given how he managed many kids a day, he was good at remembering one’s names by now.
“Hey, I’m here for the children's lunch for the day? Just making sure everything is in order before we bring them over in an hour,” Euclides greets and tells him once he’s been addressed, a smile on his face. “I have a list from our picky eaters if that helps,” he adds tilting his head a bit with a certain curiosity. He had seen the man and maybe even talked to him once or twice before but couldn’t actually remember. He has been in Athos for so long that it happened, one forgot things and it was normal. “My name is Euclides, you’ll often see me with a 12-year-old shadowing me everywhere I go,” he says in greetings.
