[He would've paid money to see her face down a kaiju with just a gun-- because it's Mako and she probably would've won. He smiles at her briefly, and shifts his weight around in bed a little because his stomach is starting to rumble.]
Mm. [Like they're still in a Drift together, her stomach lets out a similar grumble. The sun would be starting to show, one thin line over the horizon turning the sky pink at this point, and Mako sits up in the bed, feeling reluctant to do so.]
Yes. [She runs her fingers through her hair, then - forgetting she's sharing a bed - does what she does every morning upon awakening, and stretches her arms above her head, pulling at the muscles of her back. To the left, to the right.]
Would you mind getting out? [Eating in the cafeteria, suddenly, just - no.]
[Or it's just that time of day that normal people have breakfast. It's not all the Drift, is it? He kind of hopes not because that would feel like an excuse for what he feels for her and he doesn't want that. Doesn't want to try and explain it away.
He's attracted to her, and it's hard to hide that when she stretches like that, his eyes linger for a moment, and then, swallowing hard-- he looks up at her face.]
[It's little moments like that, when she doesn't even realize that he's looking that stays his tongue for a long, long time about what he feels for her. Because he thinks that she doesn't return the feelings.]
Might be peaceful too. Cause really no one else will be around.
Good. [There will be no Jaegers around either. So if she breaks down, unintentionally, and sheds some tears where Gipsy Danger used to be, nobody but he will see it.]
[And he won't tell anyone about it either if she does cry. He might even shed a few tears for Gipsy too, his old girl who's gone for good now. Raleigh climbs out of bed and moves to follow her, stretching his arms behind his back now as he walks.]
With real chocolate. [She nods, pulling on her boots without lacing them up, and leading them both out of the room. Predictably, the hallways are empty - people have been partying up until now, they're likely asleep. They deserve it.]
As soon as a waffle house opens in the city? [We'll go, is what she means.] I'm going to take four chocolate milk cartons for breakfast today.
Raleigh doesn't think about it before he tosses an arm around her shoulders as they walk. He used to do it to Yancy all the time, it just feels comfortable to be that close to her too.]
What if you get the milk and I'll get the processed eggs and stuff?

You think we should do breakfast at some point?

Yes. [She runs her fingers through her hair, then - forgetting she's sharing a bed - does what she does every morning upon awakening, and stretches her arms above her head, pulling at the muscles of her back. To the left, to the right.]

The second they can get real waffles, or real pancakes, he'll be dragging her there himself, don't even worry, Mako.]
Four? Is one of those for me?
no subject
Sure.

Bread. We'll need bread.

You mean toast?

If you want - I was thinking of a bun. Maybe there are still some left.

[Seriously, it's a wonder that Raleigh ate any of the shit food in Alaska. Rations get old. Really, really quickly.]
Screw it, let's get both.

What kind of jam do you have here?
