[ it's around twenty minutes later that noise can be heard from the kitchen, the clinking of silverware.
however, it doesn't last long before it goes quiet, followed by some light knocking on noiz's bedroom door. sei peeks his head in, giving noiz a few seconds in case he isn't decent or something not that Sei would protest this ] Noiz? Are you awake?
[ he has shorts and boxers on. just not a shirt. he stirs awake, yawning. he had fallen back asleep after texting sei and had apparently set his phone alarm to pm instead of am. whoops. groggily, he sits up and looks over at the guest. ]
[ Sei totally isn't taking a moment to appreciate the shirtlessness that is clearly Noiz's imagination or wishful thinking. ] The food is on the table whenever you're ready for it.
[ But he doesn't make any move to step back out, leaning on the door instead. ] Sleep well?
[ he yawns again but nods, lifting his hand up to brush through his messy hair. he moves to stand from the bed, arms lamely stretching above his head. he really isn't bothering to put on a shirt.... you know, navel piercing and all. ]
[ It's...surprisingly hard not to outright stare when he does that. A glance is one thing, ogling is another entirely.
It's not that Sei is shy or timid or in some kind of denial about being attracted to Noiz. He's just not actually sure how to go about handling that attraction, despite what his texting might seem to say. It's not something he's ever had to do, and face-to-face is much different than awkward flirting over texts.
So, yes, he's just the slightest bit pink in the face but at least he isn't staring. That'd be rude. ]
Normal breakfast things. Eggs, sausage, some pancakes. Do you need a minute to get ready?
[ he yawns a third time before heading over to the doorway where sei is. he lets his fingers brush against sei's wrist, his fingers, too, before he heads past him down to the kitchen. ]
[ he shrugs as he leads them back down to the kitchen for breakfast. this is oddly one of the nicest things anyone has ever done for him and he's overcome with the sudden, strong urge to turn around and kiss sei. of course, the fact that he hesitates, that he doesn't actually do it, must mean something, because he's usually a creature of pure impulse. he's afraid of overstepping boundaries - but why exactly? ]
They're supposed to be cookie cutter. Or whatever. [ he stops at the kitchen, glancing at the food and then back at sei. he can't help a slight smirk though. ] What's the occasion?
Maybe, but everyone seems to do something different with theirs. It's interesting.
And there is none. [ A special occasion, that is. ] I just felt like coming over and having breakfast with you. Maybe see if you feel like going to see the zoo some time.
[ there may be rabbits there... why is that thought exciting? who knows. he goes to sit down at the table to have breakfast.. but not before he nonchalantly pulls out the chair beside him. you know, for sei. he doesn't awkwardly stand there and wait for the guy to sit down or anything, but it's a half-polite gesture. more than usual for noiz, anyway. ]
sei thanks him with a smile, taking the seat. ] I wasn't sure if there was anyway in particular you liked your food, so... [ It's already all been set out, plain pancakes and scrambled eggs and such. ]
[ It's odd how easy the quiet morning feels. Sei follows suit, neatly cutting his pancakes and content to let their legs press together just the slightest bit as he eats. ]
I wouldn't mind something like it again. [ are they going to end up playing footsie is that what is going on here. ] Though it seems some people took losing harder than others.
[ He reaches for something situated a little past the rest of the food, sliced mango sitting on it's own plate. He spears it on his fork and then, with a smile, offers it out to Noiz for a bite. ] Try this.
[ like the uncultured brat he is, he leans forward across the table in order to snatch the mango off the fork with his lips. screw taking the fork... he chews it slowly, mulling over the flavour. huh... that's... ]
...It's sweet. [ no shit noiz. he looks pleasantly surprised at the taste, though, blinking very slow. ]
There wasn't really much around where I lived. [ back in his apartment he means. he never really left it and when he did it was for the team. he sighs and closes his eyes, taking the bite offered with another tiny smile. ]
text!
[ He's picking it up somewhere, of course. Otherwise Noiz would be choking down burnt food. Whoops. ]
Well, if I do, you'll just have to come get me.
text!
and ok. just keep your phone on. :)

Re: action!
