[ is standing near the entrance of the starbucks where he had first met nathan, looking strangely compliant & calm as he listens & reacts (as quietly & discreetly as he's capable) to the bustling crowd of the afternoon. it's not so busy as to give him a headache, but busy enough to keep him entertained as he waits for his teammate/friend. ]

[ nods, satisfied with that. grabs something out of his bag before turning to walk towards the kitchen, disappearing out of sight. ]

[ stares at the direction nathan left in for a moment before shifting to look at caleb again. just simply looks at him, as if he's expecting him to say something. ]

[ scanning the apartment for a short moment before his attention turns back to his teammate. blinks at him, considers what he can say & then settles with: ]

Sup?

[kindrevenge.livejournal.com]

[ gives him a considering gaze, then slowly smiles, clearly amused. ]

The ceiling.

[echolocating.livejournal.com]

. . . ?

[ confusion makes him tilt his head upward at the ceiling, almost as if obeying an order, before he lowers it again to look at aaron when a (possible) answer comes to him. ]

"Ceiling" is what you say to "sup"?

[kindrevenge.livejournal.com]

No, it was a joke.

[ gestures towards the living room, turning to lead him over towards the couch and chairs. puts his hands in his pockets, waiting for him to take a seat. ]

Thirsty?

[echolocating.livejournal.com]

[ the topic of the joke takes a back-row seat when the topic of drinks come up, leaning in a little to nod. ]

Yes please! Wasser?

[ scratches his head lazily, almost not getting what he's asking for. just nods when he decides that he can get the gist of whatever caleb says in the future (doesn't seem too hard to understand), wandering off towards the kitchen. ]

[ comes back a moment later, handing over a bottle of water. ]

Here.

[ had almost followed him in, having taken two steps before he's intercepted & distracted by the water. accepts happily, taking a quick drink before he replies. ]

Danke!

[echolocating.livejournal.com]

[ then looks at aaron's empty hand & then slowly offers the bottle back. ]

No Wasser for Herr Aaron?

[kindrevenge.livejournal.com]

[ raises his eyebrows, as if not expecting that. or perhaps he's confused by the question in general. ]

No, I'm not thirsty.

[echolocating.livejournal.com]

But drink is good.

[kindrevenge.livejournal.com]

... when you're thirsty, yes.

[echolocating.livejournal.com]

[ still offering the water bottle. ]

Is good a lot!

[ takes the water bottle. stares at it. ]

[kindrevenge.livejournal.com]

[ mentally shrugs and takes a drink of it. stares at caleb, straight-faced as he says: ]

Yum.

[echolocating.livejournal.com]

[ nods, looking pleased -- ]

[echolocating.livejournal.com]

Erm. "Yum"...?

[kindrevenge.livejournal.com]

[ pauses in handing the water bottle back to him. looks confused. ]

... ? It's good?

[echolocating.livejournal.com]

[ takes the water bottle back. ]

"Yum" is good?

[kindrevenge.livejournal.com]

[ lightbulb goes off finally. ]

Yeah, it means that you like it.

[ is silent, busily trying to keep this information stored (as long as possible) in his mind as well as trying it out in different sentences. ]

[echolocating.livejournal.com]

I yum Nathan and Herr Aaron. Is right?
