Crunching filled the train cart as Noche slammed another fist full of nachos into her mouth. Tak stared as she engorged herself on gooey, stringy cheese.
"Man, this shit is the best," Noche said as she licked her fingers.
Tak blinked.
"S-Sorry, is it really that good?"
"Try so—wait... Can you eat food?"
Tak shrugged.
"Well... I guess it won't kill you?"
Tak picked up a chip, placed it in his mouth, and mimicked how Noche chewed. He stopped moving and his eyes dilated.
"By the gods."
He sat motionless there for a moment.
"Tak... You ok there buddy?"
Tears welled in his eyes.
"Tak! What's wrong man!" Noche said. "Words man. Use your words!"
He resumed chewing as tears streamed down his face.
"T-This is really good."
Noche released a sigh.
"Shit man. You had me worried," she chuckled. "YO! Waitress! Two mugs of hot chocolate over here!"
Moments later Tak stared at the spiral of whipped cream standing atop his mug.
"D-Do I eat it?"
"It's a drink dude... You drink it."

"No. No that's... You know what, you do you."
Eventually he got to the chocolate beverage and his eyes widened. He put the mug down and stared at the cup for a solid minute. Noche opened her mouth just as his eyes rose.
"I want five more," Tak said "W-With extra whipped cream."
Noche burst into laughter.
"Like it that much, huh!"
"S-Sorry, but this is like my favorite thing!"
"You've only tried two things!"
"I-It's my favorite!"
Tak drank some more, shuddered, and a smile grew on his face.
"This is the best thing ever!"
