That's a bunch of bullshit, if I ever heard it. (now he's just being difficult.) Just because you were born into that kind of contract doesn't mean you can't eat things you like.

(turns, flipping open a cupboard. rummaging...

before pulling out a box of several bags of the most buttery popcorn available.)

Check this out. Still wanna stay on a ludicrous diet, when you're already twiggy?

[assent]

Well, I could eat a little it is just... [ Except he hasn't stopped, instead pulling out popcorn and who knows what else will follow. Her eyes follow the movements quietly. ] It is better for my health if I eat properly.

[ It isn't all about weight!! Besides-- ]

And I am not "twiggy".

[ Hiruma pls... she has boobs and an ass, she aint that slim smh?????? ]

[slushfund]

(no he... sees that, but he's sure as hell not mentioning it. women are way above his understanding, sometimes he just shoves his fist in his own mouth.)

Do you want some popcorn, or not? (putting in the microwave... if she doesn't want any, he'll eat a whole bag himself; he deserves it.)

I ain't the unhealthiest bastard either, so I get it. With all the stress of the events, though, it's time for a cheat day.

[assent]

[ This is true... Her whole mindset is on that her country owns her more than anything else though, even if it isn't actually the truth anymore. ]

One night won't hurt. [ And tomorrow she probably has training with Julius anyway. She'll live. ]

I shall take some as well, in that case.

[slushfund]

Ya-ha! That's the spirit! (jerking a fist up into the air, true to form.

before he's whipping around to listen to the popping. and stare into the microwave as it irradiates their food.)

This place is sorely lackin' some serious entertainment though, like American football or a big-ass movie theatre. I had to go throw myself around like a red-headed stepchild in the training room to waste some fuckin' time.

[assent]

[ She does allow a tiny laugh at that, leaning against the counter as she starts to make a drink to go along with the popcorn. He's won her over with it, so why not? ]

What do you mean? The magitek updated just a few days ago. [ Her head tilts. ] There is a selection of things to watch on there now.

[slushfund]

...

Huh?

(it did? he never checks that thing for new apps — and he would never admit it, but he barely knows what apps are. he's worked out that they're applications on a phone, but he's never tried to use any except for the map... which he's already memorized.)

Seriously? Show me.

[assent]

You did not know? Here... [ Sonia works on opening up the app, showing him as best as she can on how to flick through things. He may notice she's started on some things already. ]

I was planning on watching a movie after taking snacks to my room, if you wish to join me?

[ Movie night!!!! ]

[slushfund]

(leaning in to peer at her phone, scrunching up his face... there is a movie app, oh my god.

now he's excited for the distraction, not thinking twice about taking her up on the offer.)

So long as it's action. Or horror. No rom-coms, or I think I might kill myself.

[assent]

[ Well... bracelet but still. There is a movie app!! ]

Horror is my favourite, so you need not worry about that.

[ She turns towards the kettle, adding water before placing it on the stove to heat it up. ]

If we are indeed going "all out" however, would you like hot chocolate to take with us?

[ Too late she's making it anyway... ]

[slushfund]

(*always forgets the magitek devices are actually jewelry 2k17*

wrinkles his nose at the hot chocolate idea...)

I'll make myself a coffee. I've always hated hot chocolate. Not to mention all chocolate. And candy. Sweets of any kind.

(slaps down a space-keurig k-cup of dark roast, patting this hi-tech machine with both hands. let's seeee...........)

[assent]

[ froot pls ]

Wha-what?! [ She whips around, almost tripping over herself in shock of what he just said. ] How can you not enjoy sweets?!

[ This is a girl who grew up in a country that prides itself on its chocolate and wine ok ok ]

[slushfund]

(pressing a button that looks legit, from a moment of time spent deducing how the hell he works it. boop.)

Ah, I don't know. I was born thinking all candy was wretched, artificial, carcinogenic filth. (says it so casually he could be joking, but the matter-of-fact expression's saying otherwise.)

Really, really dark chocolate is the only thing that's come close to enjoyable, but I'd still rather die.

(GATHERS HIS MUG UP)

[assent]

[ She just looks horrified tbh. ]

Then what do you eat as a snack to cheer yourself up? This?

[ She indicates to the popcorn... she's constantly around people who eat anything at home so it's almost like she forgot people had Specific Tastes. ]

[slushfund]

...

Why are you so cut up about this? It's just candy! (protecting the bowl of popcorn bodily, like she might try to switch it out on him or something...) I don't eat any snacks to cheer myself up. I don't need to cheer myself up, I just sweat out any whiny bitch vibes I give myself.

(eyeing her a moment longer, before edging around the counter. we have movies to watch.)

[assent]

Because it is delicious! [ Her left cheek seems to puff out slightly before she rights herself. ] Though truly... that is the case?

[ Then again his life has not been as fucked up, quite likely... ]

[slushfund]

Ah, that's the case. Then I kill two birds with one stone.

(exercises and distractions. see: his entire day today, before a shower and meeting up with sonia in the kitchen. actually, hiruma's pretty exhausted, so tekflix sounds too good to be true right now.)

Where's your room?

[assent]

[ She can't bring herself to ask if it's simply because of easy things happening in his life -- who knows tbh. Maybe he's just good at brushing things off. ]

The third floor. I am sorry it is quite a trip, but it is close to the stairwell.

Shall we?
