“we’re more than friends. we’re family.”
(But he's saying this in his frilly pink apron and matching chef hat.)
Rove had somehow got roped into helping Kalen make bits for the next unbirthday event his house was planning. Talk about picking the worst time to walk into the kitchen but at least he would snag some snacks to take back to the dorm for him and maybe Idia. He had been smashing biscuits in a bag for cheesecake cups when the other had spouted the line.
Stood there in all his glory holding a tray of steaming pastries. It was comical to the point he was laughing so hard he almost fell off the bar stool he was on holding his sides with tears in his eyes. "Omfg!!" He wheezed. "I've split a seam! Omfg that's so cringe!" He sniggered but then the look the other gave him….shit not a joke?
"You're joking? You're joking?" He asked, voice cracking in almost fear, a brief moment of vulnerability hitting him. "You gotta be….it's always a joke…" he scoffed angrilly beating the biscuits in response with the rolling pin. Any protest that Kalen may have given Rove's spare hand would lift in the universal hush motion. Brows furrowed as he focused, releasing pent up anger on the crumbled mess in a food baggie.
When he was done he placed the wooden item down letting a breath hands lifting to push back his bangs as he released a breath before a dark smile grew on his lips. "That was a funny joke Kalen…I'm sure your to stupid to understand but no doubt one of your idiotic house mates put you up to it…was it Cater? Were they hoping I'd cry tears of joy that someone wants to be friends with the bug boy to load it up to magicam? One big funny joke huh!!!" His voice took on a dark growl. "Well fuck you all I don't need you pity or mockery, Idiot!" He barked angrily, shaking to his core. Even Dollface who had come with him seemed to be retreating from Rove.
