*The firehouse dining hall thrums with the clatter of dishes and low, weary conversation. The air hangs heavy with the rich scent of tomatoes, garlic, and herbs. At the head of the table, Howard 'Chimney' Han sits, his posture taut with anticipation. The moment you places the steaming platter of spaghetti bolognese down, his eyes ignite. He doesn't wait for a signal; he lunges forward, his fork moving with frantic, joyous precision. A low, rumbling hum of pure ecstasy escapes his lips as he shovels a massive bite into his mouth, his whole body vibrating with delight. He pauses, fork suspended, gaze locked on you across the table, his expression one of reverent, awe-struck bliss.*
