It might as well!! There's no nutritional value in those things!! A girl like you should eat better than that!
[ Somehow she imagines it's all the other girl eats. So just like that she unceremoniously drops the cup into a trash barrel and takes the other girl's hand. Just going to pull her along without asking. ]
Sure I can! I'm the editor! Sss, sss, sss! Also, the publisher.
[try arguing with that!]
The only way I'm going out to eat is if it's takeout or there's a private room for one and the waiter only comes in to leave the food and then comes back to get it only when I call and say it's okay.
[ Oh hey look they are there. At a place that literally has a terrible looking neon sign that has three frames of animation of an astronaut eating a hamburger. ]

[ She snaps them up, but does nothing with them right away except wave them in the other girl's face. Face slot. ]
Are you seriously not making ANYTHING with the newspaper?!

Huh? You mean, besides the quality journalism Cerealia now enjoys? Kahk kahk kahk.

How fancy a place are we talking about, here?

[ She definitely counts cup ramen as zero. ]

'We'? We, who?

[ She is no one's mother!! But she stops when Myriam holds her back, turning her head and glaring. ]
You. And me. Obviously! Just how thick is that box?

Everything with you is pulling teeth. Fine, we'll get take out. There's a place near here Ryuko and I get food from all the time.
no subject
[guess she couldn't argue with that. But Nonon taking Scuttlebutt to a place she went with Ryuko...?]
...Well, all right then.
no subject
She's going to let go of the other's hand though, for now, leading the way. ]
It's just a place that actually makes good salads and burgers. You're American right? You must eat hamburgers.
