[huffs!!]

'Tis a two way street, you know.

[teethandambitionsbared]

Nah, I was looking'. You must be... half blind or something.

[ it's said without much heat, but all the same his tail lashes and his gaze is rather - - fixed on him. ]

[happytail]

I am not so small as to be hard to spot.

[Drly, his own tail twitching.]

[teethandambitionsbared]

So you must have tried really hard to run into me, huh?

[ twitch... twitch. ]

Hey - - where's the kitchen again?

[happytail]

It's very brightly lit, you can't miss it.

[teethandambitionsbared]

... alright. Show me.

[happytail]

Manners.

[Malleus holds his ground when he stumbled into, but doesn't retaliate. It'll take more than that to get under his skin.]

You look worse than usual. Tch. Isn't there someone who is supposed to be looking after you?

[teethandambitionsbared]

I'm fine.

[ he says but his tail's lashing, and he doesn't quite back away from him. ]

... Just hungry. Ruggie's asleep.

[tsunotaro]

This is what you look like when hungry?

[He's pretty sure the sweating like that is new.]

The dining hall is small, but not so far that you should offer yourself go this far. Even raw ingredients are edible.

[teethandambitionsbared]

I'm goin' there.

[ but ... he isn't walking. he's staring, a bit fixatedly at Malleus, tail swish-swishing. ]

[tsunotaro]

.......... Do you need to be carried, Kingscholar?

[He motions around himself, towards the diner, like "ok, this way"]

[teethandambitionsbared]

-- No.

[ as much as some part of him wants to be closer, to smell and to -- bite? he shakes his head, trying to get rid of the thought. ]


Just ... just come with me.

[rugpull]

Leona?






Why are you out of bed? Are you sick? Throw up out here so I ain't gotta clean it up.

[reaching to check his forehead]

[teethandambitionsbared]

[ oh no

he jerks back, but before he does Ruggie will be able to feel how ... clammy his forehead is. ]

Not sick. Just hungry.

[rugpull]

You feel sick.

[grabs by the wrist, starting to try to pull him towards the diner]

But if ya want food I can make ya some soup. And we can see if you vomit everywhere.

[teethandambitionsbared]

[ huff! but maybe -- maybe just food would help? he does feel hungry, ravenously so, he just doesn't want to freak Ruggie out. ]

Least I don't feel like throwin' up yet.

[rugpull]

Yeah, well you look like garbage. Sweaty, stinky garbage.

[into the diner, letting go of Leona]

You can grab some bread to nibble while I fix something up.

[teethandambitionsbared]

... c'mon. It's not that bad, is it?

[ it does feel that bad. he does go to grab some bread and grumpily sit down.


but even the bread doesn't quite taste right. he makes a bit of a face and puts it back down on the plate he's grabbed. ]

[bethebeast]

[ he can smell leona.

... i mean he can always smell leona, but this time he can really smell leona. smell his sweat. his desperation. his... something.

the point is, he's drawn to it. he's actually gone looking for him. ]

Leona-senpai! What are you doing out here?

[teethandambitionsbared]

[ Ah Fuck

he takes a moment to compose himself, a deep breath in, trying not to look as ... well, awful as he feels. ]

It's nothin'. I'm just hungry.

[bethebeast]

[ yeah that's not gonna work so well cause Jack's nose never lies and you smell awful ]

"Hungry"... [ repeats. tensely, almost like a growl. ]

... you're not going to find anything to eat out here.

[teethandambitionsbared]

I'm goin' for the diner.

[ gives him a hand waving ]

[bethebeast]

[ are you trying to wave him off leona please not even ruggie can get him to go away ]

.... can you even make it on your own? [ actually he won't wait for that answer ] I'm comin with you.

[teethandambitionsbared]

You don't need t' --

[ ... irritated tail swish, and then he sighs ]

Y'know what, fine. We'll see if they got dog treats.

[ WALKIN ]
