He's led to the table, and he sits, and there's bacon and eggs and the food looks good. Very good. His stomach gurgles. Gurgle. The blush might be harder to ignore.]
...I haven't really thought about it. [Eating breakfast is normal. He's eating breakfast. Chewing, biting, swallowing.]

...sigh.] There's just so much to do and not enough hands to do them. To be honest, sitting while others are taking up my work feels...wrong, and it hasn't even been a day. I know.
