Got the fish. Barry will love them.
Synopsis
A strange shop in Xion’s marketplace. The store’s owner, 
Barry, shrivels in shock when he sees EVE. To EVE, “cooking” is nothing but processing a corpse into resources—a very strange deed. Barry is disappointed and asks her to help him cook.
When EVE hands Barry the fish, which are useless to her, he explains to her why he does what he does.
Barry finds it unfortunate that people prioritized only efficacy and usefulness after Xion went into hardship. He thinks it’s because essential functions are now performed by machines, not people. Thus, Barry is trying to preserve culture to the best of his ability.
Though she found him odd at first, EVE comes to appreciate Barry’s efforts. Barry seems happy to know that he taught the angel something new.
