XD totally fine!

Nope. Got carried away in the jaeger bay. You eat yet?

[setpoint]

Not yet.

[It's gotten pretty late for dinner, but guess who got distracted by work and forgot to eat?]

Would you like to join me?

[rals]

Sure. Mess Hall? Have that closed that yet?

[They've gotta know there are some stragglers that haven't filled their bellies yet.]

[setpoint]

We can make it. I've heard rumors that there's chocolate cake today, if you would like to investigate.

[Which is kind of a miracle.]

[rals]

Guess there's only one way to find out if there's any left. Meet you there?

[A definite miracle.]

[setpoint]

Meet you there.

[And, as promised, Mako will be waiting in the now nearly deserted mess hall. She's beaten him, and so there's a tray for each of them on the table in front of her.]

[rals]

[Raleigh swagged his way into the mess hall, pausing just a second when he found Mako had made it there first. He isn't surprised. He took the seat across from her.]

Arigato. Didn't realize how hungry I was until you messaged me.

[setpoint]

[Mako's lips twitch up into a little smile when he sits. She slides his tray over, his slice of cake clearly bigger than hers. Honestly, she figured that was the case.]

You've been busy?

[It's a gentle invitation for him to tell her about what he's been up to, if he wants. Mako still isn't entirely used to this—this easy back and forth, this sense of instant familiarity. She's never experienced it with anyone else, and while it makes sense logically, it's still a novelty.]

[rals]

[As if he doesn't notice the difference between the two cakes, he simply gives her a look: You sure you don't want the bigger piece? He doesn't want to seem like a greedy bastard.

Ah, that's right. He keeps forgetting this is all very new to Mako, the drifting and feeling suddenly connected, anyway. Raleigh's had the luxury of experiencing that once before, though, maybe it was different because it was his brother, and there'd already been an existing connection.]

Yeah, kinda. Mainly got caught up in watching the repairs on Gipsy. Gave the guys some issues when I decided to get hands-on and give some input.

[Hey, he knows how his girl ought to run.]

What about you? What kept you so busy you didn't eat dinner?

[setpoint]

[Mako lets out a little sigh. It's a subtle thing, but noticeable enough.]

Paperwork.

[And yes, maybe her clipboard had essentially become another limb before she'd been chosen as Raleigh's copilot, but where she really wants to be, always, is working on the Jaegers.]

Are they taking good care of her?
