Virgil stared at the Ramen in the microwave as Roman walked to his side"what are you doing?"

Virgil continued staring at the microwave"the R-Ramen is t-trapped,I-it makes a weird noise when in t-trouble."

Roman chuckled"that noise tells you that the Ramen is ready,not that it's in trouble."Virgil looked to Roman"ready for w-what?"Roman sighed"ready to eat."

Virgil yelped as the microwave went off,Roman opened the door and took out the Ramen.

Roman held the Ramen up to Virgil who was floating like usual"blow."Virgil tilted his head then exhaled on the noodles softly.

Roman smiled"a little harder?"Virgil took in a breath and blew,Virgil covered his mouth and coughed"are you ok?"Roman asked putting the Ramen on the counter maybe he isn't supposed to have oxygen!

Virgil nodded"i-it's just that my t-throat hurts w-when I breathe I-in too much..um.."Virgil didn't know how to put it"u-unclean air."Roman nodded"I'll make a note of that,maybe you should carry a inhaler incase that happens."

Virgil waved away the statement"I'm fine Ro."Virgil took the Ramen and sat on the counter as he ate,Roman sighed"if you're sure."

Roman sat on a stool with Patton at his feet"also,um...did you know you have three eyes?"Virgil looked to Roman"this?"he pulled back his bangs to show the brown eye,Roman shivered"yeah."

Virgil covered the eye again"of course I do,sure it helps me see b-better but I know it looks strange."Roman felt kinda bad now"if you cover it up because people get creeped out I will get used to it!"

Virgil smiled softly"no it's fine,it's like a g-genetic d-defect where I'm from in a way."Roman hummed"your planet sounds cool!"Virgil shrugged"well I haven't b-been all around my planet b-before,so I don't know how cool it really is."

Virgil finished his Ramen and threw it in the trash"Virgil,why did you leave anyways?"Virgil tensed"you don't have to answer if you don't want to!"he blurted out.

"I'll t-tell you some other time,sorry but I can't c-completely trust you."Roman nodded"you've only been with me for a day,the fact that you're comfortable enough to even talk to me is enough."

Virgil smirked he appreciates boundaries,I can get behind that.Virgil then began to float"I'm bored,what do you do for a-Anyways?"Roman shrugged"Disney and karaoke,then I meet up with my friends some days."

Virgil tilted his head"karaoke?"he bumped his head on the fan"Werdada!"he cursed before covering his mouth"s-sorry!"Roman laughed"what does that mean in English?"Virgil rubbed the back of his neck"I think it means f-fuck."Roman laughed.

Virgil sat on the couch"s-sorry,was I rude?"Roman shook his head"swear in any language you want buddy!"Virgil smiled"hey,can we watch that d-Disney you talked about?"Roman sat next to him"of course!"
