[Manwol has a few plates of food in front of her, but she's mostly looking at the food instead of eating it.
She turns when Adora calls out to her though, and while she looks temporarily conflicted -- she does not flee. She's pretty sure Adora could outrun her anyway?? Then Adora says something that makes her blink and completely forget about running --]
[Adora hesitates a moment, looking at the plates of food in front of Manwol before she... very uselessly offers some fancy chocolate.]
... I mean, you already have food. So. Uh. You may not want this. But we have these in Winter dorm and they make me feel better when things are rough so I thought, uh... I should bring you the rest...?
Manwol blinks in recognition at the sight of the bar in Adora's hands. Then she just --- pushes all the plates away from her to the other side of the table, im in tears. then she gestures to an open chair that i have decided is right at her table.]
...You got me chocolate. [FANCY!!! RICH PEOPLE CHOCOLATE!!!] Kon gave me one of these last week, and it was really good.
Hey, what's that supposed to mean? You didn't think I could think about stuff like that? [Her tone's pretty light though, so she doesn't really seem offended.]

FINALLY CRASHES ON IN

...What is it?
CATCHES YAYWON!!!
... I mean, you already have food. So. Uh. You may not want this. But we have these in Winter dorm and they make me feel better when things are rough so I thought, uh... I should bring you the rest...?
[........ she rubs the back of her head.]
I'm not sure I thought this through very well.

It's not a lot, but... I dunno, it seemed kind of comforting...? And you've been through a lot.

[she'll break a piece off and eat it,]
Chocolate's actually one of my top three favorite things to eat. Right behind caviar and champagne.
[champagne counts as a food group]

[SHE'S MOMENTARILY SHORT-CIRCUITED BY A PRETTY LADY CALLING HER CUTE.
IT'S FINE.
ANYWAY. AHEM.]
I mean.
Do you eat champagne? That's a drink, right?
very glad no one scapegoated adora
That's right. It's a type of alcohol. I like drinking it because it makes me feel rich and expensive.
[manwol...]
Which is kind of the same way chocolate makes me feel.
i was SO CLOSE u_u
That's pretty valid.
[Can't argue that.]
It's kind of hard to find rich and expensive things here, but. If I come across any, I'll bring 'em to you.
suplexes you
[she's surprised but also genuinely pleased?? adora....]
I can understand why you brought me chocolate, but there's no reason for you to keep on giving me things.
[SAYS MANWOL, WHO IS GENUINELY PLEASED]
wow rude
Well, I mean, I like you, so if it makes you happy that's enough of a reason, right?
[SHE DOESN'T GET IT]
i get to do this
Then what do you like, Adora? I can't be the only one who keeps on receiving things.
no subject
I've got stuff to do.
So... if giving you things like this makes your stay better, that's enough for me.
cal im gonna pc u again tomorrow... aka later today
She considers her thoughtfully,]
You said you're a fighter, right? Were you taken from a battle?
YES PLS GIMME A PC opens arms wide
My world--my home and my friends--they're all in danger. They need me.
[She closes her eyes, sighing a bit.]
That's why I have to go back as soon as I can. That's really all that matters to me.
NYOOMS TO YOU
...That's more responsibility than I expected.
[manwol this entire time: cute, sweet adora....
but maybe just thinking that is underestimating her too,]
So you've been thinking of them this entire time? While dealing with all of this?
[adora...............]
no subject
[She looks a little sheepish at that.]
Hey, what's that supposed to mean? You didn't think I could think about stuff like that? [Her tone's pretty light though, so she doesn't really seem offended.]
no subject
[is that any better than thinking about them]
no subject
... You don't? That's... how can you not? [She's kind of impressed tbqh.]
no subject
[she's grinning... manwol...]
That and my job back home isn't very urgent. Ghosts are used to waiting.
no subject
There's no way someone as cool as you doesn't have friends.
But I guess that makes sense with the job part. If it's not pressing, you can just always get back to it when you get back to it.
