[ as usual it's monday and exploration day! which is how jonas ends up in the cafeteria, except he's making a face almost immediately even while he nods at yuzuriha in greeting. ]
I've heard of bugs being protein, but this is kind of taking it a little far.
[ NONONONONO she'd literally rather subject herself to whatever $5 mystery food is in the store even, than any of these bug entrees. thankfully there's free canned food as well...? she picks up one of the containers—this sort of preserved food is news to her. ]
...The rest doesn't look so bad.
[ she picked up a can of diced tomatoes but to her that's like, perfectly fine fare. compared to BUGS. ]
[ sorry he's immediately just laughing at her reaction. like outright. ]
No, you're right. I mean obviously somebody likes it, but luckily there's other options. [ he glances at what she has. ] Canned goods last for pretty much ever. You could store these things for years without going bad. But if you're gonna go for tomatoes you may as well grab a bag of chips, too.
[ she'd be a lot more calm about it but... sometimes Things happen in canon... she never wants to see a creepy crawly ever again much less consume one... ]
That long, huh... [ not to be depresso but uh, she thinks that's overkill given the supposed length of this game... ]
Oh, do those go well together? ...What're you gonna have?
Yeah. That long. [ they will simply not think about this game being over in a few weeks and how canned goods seem unnecessary. ]
I don't know if well is the word I'd use, but it does in a pinch. When you don't have a ton of options, you learn to work with what you have. [ hence why he picks up a can of tuna. ] This is pretty easy, too.
That's true, isn't it. [ she didn't grow up with much, so she definitely gets it. and! she does go for the tuna!! ]
Oh, this has gotta be way better than whatever's in the lake here.
[ it really pains me that they're just pairing whatever canned food they can find and don't even have like, bread or something for sides. (maybe there is bread but not in this pc) ]
Man, have you fished anything out yet? You couldn't pay me enough to eat what's down there. [ please. both of you. don't just eat tuna and diced tomato from cans. i hate it here. also picking up a can of beans like he's thinking this over. ]
Or maybe you could, I don't know. I'm negotiable. [ confidence week is hell. ]
Is this the part where I say I know I'm a much better catch? [ haha. kill him. anyway. ] I'd be worried about somebody who didn't, actually. Fish are fish.
That isn't the worst thing I could be, so I'm taking it. [ but yeah. this is. gross. ] ...I'm good with the diner. Have you had their pancakes yet? They're the best you're ever gonna have.
[ thinking about it makes these cans even less appealing... she generally isn't that picky (when u grow up with nothing), but. pancakes vs. tuna-tomatoes is like, a no brainer. ]
[ for the olympics, she means. she tries get a few 3-pointers herself, and probably misses the trash bin at least once, and has to lamely walk over to clean up properly... ]

You can be king of the lake.
[ wow. also digging into the tuna and tomatoes... it's genuinely like, fine? but also a little sad. ]
...Let's just go back to the diner after this. [ or anywhere honestly ]

I have! They're pretty tasty.

...Let's clean up here so we can get moving.
no subject
May as well trash it all, right? I doubt anybody will want the leftovers and it's not like there isn't enough for other people.
[ which is to say, he is definitely grabbing a few cans and shooting them like a basketball into a nearby trashcan. yeet. ]
no subject
...You should've been on the basketball team.
[ for the olympics, she means. she tries get a few 3-pointers herself, and probably misses the trash bin at least once, and has to lamely walk over to clean up properly... ]
Alright, let's go!
