[ well, if noa is offering him an opportunity to snoop around in the fridge for no reason, kaiser will take that up, crouching down as he opens up the minifridge. he isn't even hiding the fact that he's inspecting the contents, but he does also actually want water, so there's that. he wants to know, what are the safe foods...? has noa been perhaps getting into yogurt lately, as people in their 30s do?
another benefit of being a minor nuisance is that he's conveniently looking away when noa mentions the promise of other young strikers, so that noa can't see how that makes his expression visibly and involuntarily twist. the worst part is how kaiser can't even insist that he be quiet about this because, well — it's true.
instead, he finally picks up a bottle of water and shuts the fridge door. he can handle the heat and he will not get out of the kitchen! ]
Is that so. Should we compare shortlists?
[ were they not going to watch a movie... kaiser is flopping his ass back onto the cot. he is not sullen at all as he pulls the lid off of his ice cream cup, takes the spoon out, and stabs it through the chocolate layer at top. there are not little pieces of chocolate now getting smudged into noa's bedsheets. ]
