Nirvana decided to sit and enjoy her food for a moment. Her eyes stayed on her cup of Ramen until it was nothing but broth and she drank it quickly. She opened the plastic container in the bag to see 3 pot stickers. She picked up her chopsticks and grabbed the first pot sticker and took a bite. She chewed it slowly, letting it fill her and she breathed out of her nose in an almost sigh of relief, "These are really good. Where did you get these from?"
"The little Japanese place down the street once you get out of the Asylum limits," he answered.
"Did you get yourself anything?"
Crane shook his head, "No I didn't want to keep you waiting any longer," he stated dryly, feeling his stomach churn slightly at the thought of food. He cleared his throat and was about to speak but the plastic container with the rest of the pot stickers and the chop sticks were passed over to him, sliding along the concrete floor towards him. He looked at it before his eyes looked at Nirvana but she was busy grabbing one of the bottles of water and grabbing one of the little snacks that were in the plastic bags and crossing her legs back on to the bed.
Crane looked back at the container before picking up one of the pot stickers with his fingers and taking a bite from it. He didn't really appreciate food for taste, he usually ate cheap frozen dinners at hime. Something quick and easy. But those didn't hold anything against the luke warm pot sticker. He chewed in silence as he heard Nirvana open a bag of chips and begin to eat them.
They stayed silent for a moment as they ate together but apartment. Crane got up from his spot on the wall and picked up his garbage and hers and put it in the empty plastic bag sitting on the floor. Nirvana ate her chips quietly but looked at Crane as he was so close to her. His eyes stayed away from hers as he did this little chore before he grabbed a small bag of chips for himself as well. He went back to his spot and sat back down, stretching his long legs ahead of him and at that moment he looked at Nirvana who still had her eyes on him.
"You're being awfully quiet tonight, Dr. Nelson," he mentioned as he opened the bag of chips with a quiet pop and began eating them.
"I'm out of things to say, I suppose. I don't like repeating myself either," she replied with a shrug.
"I guess I'll talk then," he stated, placing the bag of chips on the ground and clasping his hands together in his lap as he looked at Nirvana, "Do you know what I found interesting this morning?" Nirvana reminded silent, just looking at him and waiting for him to continue, "What I found interesting is that your body seems to have built up a tolerance to the gas at a pretty quick rate. The first time you road that wave for 2 hours but today you only were there for maybe 20 minutes. 30 minutes max."
"It still felt like an eternity if that makes you feel better," she stated in a bitter tone.
"Well I'm not upset by it, I just find it very very interesting. But it makes testing the gas almost useless," he finished, lifting one hand to the back of his head and scratching it in thought. Nirvana piped in quickly.
"While I guess we don't have to do it at all, you know, since it would be useless," she stated with a slight shrug but the joking tone in her voice was evident. She knew it would never be that easy and the chuckle coming from Crane told her she was right.
"Nice try Nirvana, but I have a different idea. But it will take a little while for me to get it together. Maybe a week or so if I can focus on it. Maybe longer if I can't."
Nirvana watched as he picked up his bag of chips and stood up from his spot on the floor. He moved towards the door and looked back to Nirvana, "Slide the trash out the door, I'll get it in the morning. Relax for a while but just know you're not getting off so easy. I'll be back to try something new with you," he stated before exiting the room and Nirvana could hear the door lock behind him. She sat with herself in silence before continuing to eat, her mind wondering on just what Crane had planned.
