Though with Mei it's debatable if it would be a plus; for the moment they're at least agreed on giving the can a bit more scrutiny. She glances from the ordinary food item to the man holding a can opener like it might either bite him or start singing. Hm.]
You stab the can with it.
[She sounds perfectly serious. A moment later, though, she holds out a hand for the can opener back.
Hopefully she hasn't unleashed anything messy with a bit of levity.]

WHERE IS THE STABBY PART ON THIS
He's actually considering it for a moment or two. It's a good thing she speaks up, other wise he would be trying to stab it. Offering it back over. ]
Is there some kind of technique? I don't really see a blade on it, unless that wheel is actually really sharp?
no subject
Mei doesn't bother to explain in words -- there's no real point in trying to explain a can opener the way there isn't a point in trying to word how to use a spoon or chopsticks. She merely reaches over and presses the thing to the can, the little -- not-so-sharp -- hook requiring a bit more force before it can really bite in.
And then it's just turn, turn, turn, turn. She isn't using much force, so it's not the best can-opening, but there's enough of a slit there for the food to drop out, if needed.]
It's not a very good one. But it doesn't matter.
no subject
He'll watch carefully though, seeing how the mechanism works and the gears going as she turns the thing. Wheel of can opening turn, turn, turn. Show us a lesson we should learn.
He sees the slits and waits until she's done before he takes the can to turn it over. Time to watch red stuff start to ooze out. ]
Oh hey! It worked. It is basically stabbing it, huh?
[ It's not clean work, but it will do. Maybe they fight the lid to get it opened some more? ]
no subject
She isn't really waiting or being especially demonstrative, but she isn't rushing either -- it seems to be natural to her person to be a more deliberate sort, so he'll get a good look at the inner workings of the can opener like no one, perhaps, has ever really bothered. It's still a bit rickety, but at least they have food now. Mei sets the opener down on the counter and watches patiently as the can slowly, slowly bleeds out.]
It's the easiest way. But the rest isn't stabbing.
[She nods at his knife. The can wars can continue now that they've go a head start.]
no subject
She says the rest isn't stabbing, but she is nodding at the knife.
Okay let's just jab it into one of the holes to just carefully saw off the bits of metal still attached in-between holes. At least he's keeping control of the knife to keep from jerking when it hits the holes. ]
I see. I see. I guess I can handle this part just fine. What do we want to make with this as soon as we open it?
no subject
She'll step back once he gets to the pseudo-stabbing, since you never know what can happen with one of these things and a particularly enthusiastic whoever who doesn't understand can openers, but it seems he's got it. More or less.
The last question just gets a confused tilt of the head.]
Weren't you opening it because you wanted to eat it?
no subject
He'll pause in the stabbing to gesture at the can opener and the can. ]
You did about half of the work so you deserve some of the spoils, right?
[ Now back to sawing through. This poor knife is probably going to be fucked up after this but worth it? Maybe? ]
