Kane nodded, he started to get some leftover katdudon and set up the rice.

“Is there anything that can be done about it?”Norkhal’rokh wondered.
He watched Kane with curiosity as he made food.
Kane shook his head no, finishing up cooking.
Norkhal’rokh hummed, glancing in the direction of the neighbors. He wondered if he could use his influence to shut them up, but quickly decided against it. He didn’t bribe just anyone, and it wasn’t his specialty either. That was a job more suitable for one of his cousins.
Norkhal’rokh turned away, sitting down at the dinner table when Kane finished cooking. A soft smile appeared on his face.
"here, and then we can all think of something we can do," he wrote to nok and signed to nori.
Nori rolled his eyes. “Everyone has neighbors like that.” He sat next to Nok, grinning just as wide. “Damn… that smells even better than my Otōsan‘s.”
Nori shrugged, then helped Kane dish everything out. “Sounds good to me.”
Kane ate, thankful for his own food rather then hospital food
“Not me, apparently. I never realized neighbors could be such a nuisance,”Norkhal’rokh replied with a shrug.
He glanced at Nori when he said ‘Otōsan’, having no idea what he meant. Though, he didn’t say anything about it.
“Same here. And thank you for the lovely food,”Norkhal’rokh said with a smile. He ate quietly, content now that the three were back home.
Nori noticed his glance and chuckled, deciding to leave him questioning as well.
“Well, rich boy, you have a lot of peasant stuff to get used to.” He said as he eagerly took cartoonishly large bites.
Norkhal’rokh snickered, both at Nori’s words and the way he was eating.
“Yes, I suppose so. But, I honestly don’t mind. It’s fascinating to see the world through the eyes of folks that aren’t as fortunate as I am,”he replied. There seemed to be a hint of bitterness in his voice as he said ‘fortunate’, but it quickly vanished.
He smiled thoughtfully at the other two, content in their company.
Nori scowled slightly at Norkhal’rohk’s words, resting his chin in his hands as he stared forward.
“Yeah. Must be pretty fascinating.” he repeated with the same condescending tone.
Norkhal’rokh sighed, looking at Nori.
“I didn’t mean to sound condescending, I assure you. I was being genuine. I have never experienced what it’s like to be… not rich, I guess. And, it’s truly neat to finally see the world in a new light. My family has always looked down upon the less fortunate, and that’s one of the many reasons why I am the ‘outcast’. My brother, in particular, doesn’t like my habits, or interests, or just me in general,”he explained, a hint of sadness in his eyes.
Nori sighed as well, shaking his head slightly.
"I-I'm sorry. Its just… its not really a 'fun' experience. But… I'm sorry your family is like that. That really sucks." He mumbled, picking at his food
" hey, let's just chill okay?"
“It’s alright. And, for me, this is all a welcome change, both from routine and from my… less than pleasant family. But, anyway, I absolutely love this food, Kane,”Norkhal’rokh said, smiling softly at Kane.
Nori sighed, nodding in agreement. He shouldn't let his stubbornness and quick temper get in the way with anyone. After all, he was stuck with them for another two months and 29 days.
"It really is. Thank you." Nori added
" your welcome, now that we're all finished let's get down to noris way of sign." He wrote and chuckled slyly
Nori chuckled, rubbing his hands together. "Sweet. I like this idea."
Norkhal’rokh looked between the two with a grin.
“Ooh, I am indeed curious,”he said.
" nori, I sign something and you teach him while I do dishes" he signed
Nori nodded. "Gotcha." He signed back, starting to explain the basics of ASL, and then getting sidetracked talking about how his previous boyfriend was deaf in one ear and how he had to learn it that way
Kane tapped to get their attention "dog,"
Norkhal’rokh listened attentively, smiling when Nori when off topic and Kane intervened. He didn’t mind either action, as he was simply enjoying the presence of both men while learning the basics of sign language.
Nori grinned excitedly. "Wait really?? Where!?" He exclaimed, before realizing Kane was talking about the word, not the animal. "Oh… uh… that means dog." He explained sheepishly
Kane started laughing hard enough to tear up. He held his chest tightly "no wayy"
