It comes with their faaaamous cocktail sauce, so we really can't pass up on the shrimps, I think.
[ he says it like it's Extremely Logical, nodding matter-of-factly in his own way. he's making informed decisions for the good of this date, alright. and he happens to know that someone at this table happens to enjoy a fine cocktail sauce with their shellfish. ...besides himself. ...so basically both of them. ...but he was thinking of Rei.
before too long he gets tired of looking at his own menu and wants Rei's instead, scooching his way around the booth so he can peek around at the page he's on over his shoulder. ]
There's so many good cuts here! I was thinking the prime rib. I read in the paper that their au jus is so heavenly, the Landlord himself cried the first time he tried it. I mean, it's a lie, I've met him and he has no soul, so he can't possibly cry! But you have to admit, it's a strong selling point.
Really? That sounds great! We'll definitely get that then.
[ He's already excited for the appetizer, but of course he will only eat a small amount of shrimp so that he can have room for his steak that will come later since his stomach cannot hold as much as Nagisa's can.
Rei was looking deep into thought about what cut of steak to get when he sees Nagisa suddenly appear next to him and peeking over his shoulder. He should have expected that, but he didn't which caused him to laugh lightly and shake his head while smiling. Their menus were exactly the same, which meant that Nagisa was just doing this because he got bored or because he wanted to get closer to Rei, and it was probably a bit of both, really. ]
I've not met him yet, but is it really good enough that it could make people cry? [ He's not sure that he's ever had food that good. ] I was considering the filet mignon since I believe it is often referred to the perfect cut of steak, but any suggestions you have other than that would be much appreciated, Nagisa-kun.
[ it definitely is because he wanted to get closer. it all makes sense now, don't it—all the times in the past year (or even two), both at home and here, that he'd dropped what he was doing just to scoot over to Rei? he probably hadn't even realized it himself until now. it's quite liberating that the cat's finally out of the bag, because now there's no element of "what the heck is he doing, why," he can just casually peek his head over Rei's shoulder and snuggle up to him annoyingly, and it's just "Nagisa being gay". totally normal. ]
Oooh... filet mignon is really good! You'd probably like that best, since it's fancy. And maybe if you get it with white truffle oil, it'll taste even more rich and delicious!
[ that is so expensive why are you suggesting this ]
Orrrr... well, tri-tip is always good too, but then you have to deal with the giant bone.
[ Everything makes sense now, but it still always causes Rei to react in some way since he's usually not expecting Nagisa to pop up near his shoulder and snuggle him when he does. But it does make sense now, since even though Nagisa does this to others occasionally, he always noticed him being more "touchy-feely" with him which he never understood. Now it is just "Nagisa being gay since he is his boyfriend now."
He listened to what he had to say and took his advice, thinking that sounded good, but just how much was it? Would he die at this price? (Yes.) He opened his mouth to reply but then heard his comment about "the giant bone" and if he had liquid in his mouth, he would have spat it out. He just...had to word it like that. And now he's laughing!!! Rei attempted to act like he was above laughing at that, when in reality he totally laughed already. ]
Are you sure? That giant bone isn't that hard to deal with. [ Don't laugh, don't laugh.. He might have let out a small laugh at the end of that. ]
We could both get the filet, since that order would make it easier on the waitress. Doesn't it come with one side, though? I'm not sure I'll have any room for dessert if I get that too. [ who do you think you're dating? you're getting dessert. ]
[ he laughs harder when Rei fails to not laugh, turning his head to muffle it into Rei's shoulder before he straight up loses it. it was even funnier when Rei said it. giant bone. ]
The filet's a little rich for me, especially with white truffle oil! I mean, it's good, but there's going to be a ton of food on this table! Especially if one of us orders something with a giant bone in it! [ lowkey cracking up tbh ] And if we get a different dish with a different side each, then we can share all of it and get to taste a whole bunch of different things! Aaaaahhh, now I have to decide on that too... their sides are all so good, if you ignore the boring carrots...
[ flicking that particular item on Rei's menu dismissively, like that's going to shame it into removing itself from the page ]
[ how old are they...laughing in a nice restaurant over "giant bone." ]
Perhaps one of us could get the filet, and one of us could get the giant bone so that we could get the two best cuts here! [ Will they ever stop laughing at this? ]
Good point about the sides--and hey! Carrots are not boring, they're very good for you and maybe I'll just get those since I'm sure you're going to get a side of fries or something with carbohydrates!
[ He's not going to be getting the carrots, is he? ]
