[there's the familiar sounds of microwaving and the castle's kitchen in the background. he's making instant ramen, because he's hungry and actually likes the stuff. he's also humming snippets of some song from the 80s, but that might be less his loss and more his questionable taste speaking

[Is just passing by the kitchen, headed towards the stairs, with Tadaharu following her...

Don't let her get away, Zelman. :>]

[exanimatus]

[calling out in three... two... one...]

Oh, hey Rin!

[payback]

[AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA]

[payback]

[She... glances back at him.]

Zelman...?

[exanimatus]

Hey there! [HE SMILES AND WAVES. HAY RIN, HAAAY. 8)]

[payback]

[SHE WAVES... BACK...] Heyyy... fancy meeting you here!

[exanimatus]

Yeah. I haven't seen you in a while.

What's up?

[payback]

Nothing too exciting... [She just stares at him.] What are you up to?

[exanimatus]

Just making lunch. [he laughs a little.] Also not too exciting, I guess.

[payback]

Well, sometimes that's good, right? It's pretty tiring if everything is exciting all the time... [What is this]

[exanimatus]

That's true! And the constant management can get kind of annoying...

[SMILEY. :)] Really, the simple stuff is all right. Besides, excitement doesn't taste as good...

[payback]

[Is this... really Zelman? Is it some kind of trap? She comes a little closer, Tad following.] Yeah... how are you feeling?

[exanimatus]

Pretty good. Ah--I'm on a loss, though.

[which is becoming his usual reaction when people ask him if he's feeling okay. he also waves at Tad a little because Tad is the cutest.]

[payback]

[She... relaxes a fraction, hearing that.]

So you know, huh?

[exanimatus]

Well, when enough people ask you if you're feeling okay...

It's pretty easy to figure out.

[payback]

You seem to be feeling just fine.
