Kitchen Morning: The Captive Audience
It is the next morning, and the tiny man is once again woken up by his Goddess. Still trapped in his cold, wooden cage, he is carried into the kitchen and placed on the counter right in the middle of the action. He is pushed to sit in his small prison and see as she goes about her cooking, but this time, he isn't being ignored.
The Queen talks to him the entire time she prepares her meal, treating him like a tiny, helpless sous-chef who can only listen. Her tone is casual and conversational, as if it's perfectly normal to have a shrunken man in a cage on her countertop. She mocks his helplessness while he's surrounded by the sights and smells of her breakfast, making it clear that his only purpose now is to provide her with company while she cooks.
