[He gawks at Zenitsu trying to call him out. The nerve.] No. Why would it matter if-- [And then his eyes snap to Toi. He pauses in lifting noodles, looking irritated and confused. He doesn't bother to try to help Toi, just lets him cough it out.
Fine, he'll just eat all the noodles. That's what Jin Ling joked about earlier, isn't it? So he'll make it reality. He's going to eat all these delicious noodles while they argue about what a kappa is.]
[WHAT THE FUCK. The noodles slip out of his chopsticks from being startled, plopping in the small bowl of sauce and splashing him and the table. Toi is trying to fight during dinner.]
You just laughed at me about being a bird! [He tries to grab the end of the ruler in his face from the top down, clamping the flat of the blade in the grip.] I'm not afraid of you!
[Zenitsu jerks back when the sauce splashes. Is this a joke? He can't even eat in peace. He shoots out of his seat, clamping his chopsticks at them like an angry jaw.]
Yes, yes, yes. We're all animals here! You're a peacock; Toi's a kappa; and I'm a mouse! Now let's eat already. It doesn't matter who started it. Just eat!
[Zenitsu is ready to stare at the ceiling and go catatonic. Didn't they hear a word of his saying that a meal tastes better when they all eat together?
But the siren song of soba beckons. He settles for that instead.]
I said that we'd eat together, didn't I?
[Grumbling, he slurps up those good noodles. Finally, some good food.]

It was just congee, I said. Reito made the dumplings.
no subject
Toi makes excellent soba, which could mean that his tea might be just as good. He nods and expresses his thanks before he faces Jin Ling.]
You know, you're being awfully modest when you were so proud of your tail the other day. Is it because Toi's here?
no subject
when zenitsu says that though, toi starts coughing on his noodles
it might look like he's dying but he is actually laughing and choking ]

Kappa! Shut up, stupid!

no subject
[ did he? did he really??
but he huffs, and then tries to get the ruler out of jin ling's grip. give it back. ]
Let go. Stop touching my things and eat your soba.
no subject
[He shoves it back in Toi's direction roughly, reaching up to wipe his chin and jaw with his arm. Stupid.]
What are you, an animal? You don't do that at the table! Don't you know that's why we eat with chopsticks? Weapons are banned from the table!
no subject
Yes, yes, yes. We're all animals here! You're a peacock; Toi's a kappa; and I'm a mouse! Now let's eat already. It doesn't matter who started it. Just eat!
no subject
[ but fine!! he'll sit back down, and go back to eating his soba!!! while glaring!!!!!!
zenitsu's life is so hard ]
no subject
[He doesn't glare exactly, but his brows are bunched, and he eats the soba like this.]
I am eating! Stop nagging! You could have already been eating!
no subject
But the siren song of soba beckons. He settles for that instead.]
I said that we'd eat together, didn't I?
[Grumbling, he slurps up those good noodles. Finally, some good food.]
no subject
[ they've just also been arguing the entire time. but soba has gone into mouths.
but fine, he will settle down and continue eating after that, like a good boy. ]
no subject
[They're eating now. Again. With a bit of a pompously irritable face, like this exactly, he starts raising noodles out of the sauce bowl to eat.]
no subject
He endures for several mouthfuls of the soba.]
