[white....

mineo will at least acknowledge that he's just chilling, so when he finishes chopping a piece of celery, he holds it up for a second to get white's attention before tossing it over to him to catch in his mouth]

Hmm... Yeah, I kind of am.

[honesty!]

But I guess I've just been curious 'cause someone saw a weird pink eye in one of the rooms.... Feels pretty horror sci-fi movie to me, you know?

[enfangs]

[this is so stupid but white does it

he also blinks in surprise because he hadn't heard about the eye.]

[probe]

A weird pink eye? There's like, eyedrops for that.

[wrath,

also they golf clap politely for mineo and white's dinner and show.]

[sengokus]

[oh.

he's realizing now that apparently he didn't tell white? oops. which is perhaps why the next think mineo tosses at him is a little bit of chopped beef. it's cooked it's fine

he does a little bow for wrath too before he straightens up]

Yeah, but like... a disembodied pink eye. Not attached to a person. That's weird, right?

[enfangs]

[well ig they're going to keep doing this, mineo is forgiven for not telling him before]

Eyes seem to be a theme around here or some shit.

[probe]

[glad mineo isn't letting wrath get away with that joke]

It sure is weird! I honestly couldn't tell you what's up with that because I don't know.

[sengokus]

Are there more eyes? Why are there more eyes.

[but before he tosses everything into the pot, he picks up a piece of chopped beef with his chopsticks again]

Wanna try to catch, Wrath-san?

[IS WRATH JOINING THEIR STUPID GAME]

[enfangs]

Could be weirder, I guess.

[



why are they like this]

[probe]

Eyes are not really my, uh, thing. I do just about everything to stay away from more eyes.

[... also.]

-- Uh, yes? Also? I will absolutely catch.

[sengokus]

Cool!

[and we're pausing plot talk because mineo is gonna toss the chopped beef in wrath's direction in a nice arc for an easy catch]

[enfangs]

You really would've hated the Deman society, then.

[white just lets out an amused snort as he watches this.]

[probe]

[they absolutely catch the chopped beef without issue.

technically kobe is for throwing and not catching but i'd die before letting that double meme/pun pass me by, so. KOBE.]

[sengokus]

Nice nice nice!!

[WRATH STAN SQUAD GROWS

but mineo's just laughing as he puts all the ingredients with the instant ramen now. wow gourmet.]

[enfangs]

[white claps!! yaaaay.]

[probe]

[they give a very elaborate bow, and then straighten up, laughing.]

Thank you, thank you. I'll be here all week.

[sengokus]

Lucky us then.

[easily!! and he'll just idly stir the ramen as it cooks]

I really am sorry that it took me so long to deliver on seeing you... but White-kun's a fan of yours, so I've heard good things!

[enfangs]

—Whadya mean, "a fan"!?

[probe]

Aww. A fan!

[they seem pleased by this. in fact, they scoot over to white and kiss him on the cheek. sorry, not sorry.]

It's fine, I guess! I don't have a speedrunning route though. Just so you know. I'm a classy lady that likes to be wined and dined before I drop my lore spaghetti.

[sengokus]

[he's just laughing at that. yeah! a fan!! good for wrath and white.]

I wouldn't expect anything less! It's better to get to know a person first anyway, right? I'm sure your - uh, lore spaghetti or whatever is worth it!

[enfangs]

[immediately gets flustered!! but he was expecting it just a little, given what wrath's like, so he doesn't look quite as embarrassed he could be. still kind of red, though.]

Don't worry, Mineo's a nerd who'd never think of getting that far without a date first.

[probe]

[they tousle white's hair before scooting back.]

Haha. You guys are a riot. [...] Are you going to impress me with your ramen?

[sengokus]

I am!!

[CONFIDENTLY and honestly it doesn't take more than three minutes because it's fucking instant ramen made fancy. but he's prepared enough for three bowls!! so he'll go to divide them up and - yes, it is instant ramen but. he chopped up some beef, scallion, added beansprouts, fish cakes, seaweed, and yea there's an egg in each bowl. it probably tastes good?? why doesn't he just get normal noodles.

he still serves them up confidently]

Gourmet Chef Enomoto Mineo's Luxury Deluxe Ramen...!!

[enfangs]

It's instant ramen, dude.

[... he still looks kind of excited as he grabs his chopsticks given that he's been living off of the vending machine for weeks.]

[probe]

[oh shit... it's so fancy. they flop down to eat. where? the counter, probably, because they're a heathen.]

Ooh. Wow, for instant ramen this is pretty good. And I'm picky.

[sengokus]

[OH DAMN MINEO LOOKS SO TRIUMPHANT. he pauses in his eating to clench his hand into a fist and pump it into the air]

Hell yeah!! Thanks, Wrath-san! Take that, White-kun!!

[enfangs]

[he pauses where he is, holding noodles between his chopsticks.]

Whadya mean, "take that"? What the hell were we fighting over— [HIS NOODLES SLIP OH NO] —Shit!

[probe]

[they snortlaugh.]

You are both disasters. [they kick their heels against the counter.]

[sengokus]

[LMAO he's laughing so hard at white sorry]

But it's fun to be a disaster with us, right?

[enfangs]

[moves his chopsticks to one hand so that he can flip mineo off :/ ]

[probe]

You guys are a highlight, for sure. [they seem super amused.] I don't like the quiet, so! Having White around is good for that.
