LJ Idol: Week 5
I laughed far too much while typing this. I wanted more inuendos, but I was also trying to give myself a word count limit to stick to...and this is what I came up with.
Set in the same time/universe as the pieces from week 1 and week 2.
"Kuchisabishii" is a uniquely Japanese word that literally means “lonely mouth” or “longing to have or put something in one's mouth.” It can also be explained as mindless eating or eating when you are not hungry.

There was a group of them standing to the side in the dining room watching the scene unfold.
"My grandmother called it kuchisabishii," Adam said.
The comment seemed random and out of the blue, but they were all watching the same thing.
A beat of silence.
"Alright, I'll bite. What does that mean?" Steve asked with a raised eyebrow.
Adam snorted at Steve's choice of words. "Kuchisabishii is a uniquely Japanese word that literally means “lonely mouth” or “longing to have or put something in one's mouth.” It can also be explained as mindless eating or eating when you are not hungry."
Steve snorted, but for a completely different reason and he turned his attention back to his partner. Danny seemed to be the definition of that. They'd already finished eating, but there he was, snacking on various appetizers that remained while the cleanup crew took the food from the dining room to the kitchen.
"Does he do this often?" Kono asked in amazement. She could put away her fair share of food, but she didn't see how Danny could still be eating.
"Oh yeah, Uncle D always has something in his mouth," Eric added.
Steve, Adam, and Kono snorted.
