Jack blinked. "I'm pretty sure I don't wanna know what that 'training' is, do I?" He mimicked Hotaru's air quotes. And fiddled with his clan bracelet absently. What training could turn such a young kid into a psycho?

Hotaru sighed and shurgged slightly. "She says her dad didn't want her to feel pain, so he practically tortured her everyday until her whole body went numb." the thought made her shiver a little. "Burns, scars, stitches, you name it." she ran her hand through her hair. "It's sick what some people will do to their kids." she said, referring to both Hana's parents and her own. But, she figured that problem wasn't too important right now, so she decided not to go into it anymore.
"Sooo, you think you know what you wanna eat?" she asked him, not sure what else she could say to change the subject.

Jack winced as Hotaru listed Hana's scars. "Ouch. Poor kid." He sighed. Not really sure what to say after that. Luckily the topic was changed. "Uhh... Chicken strips I guess." He shrugged, "Not like I now what else they serve here. You?" He asked, hoping to get farther away from the topic of Hana.

Hotaru laughed a little. "Guess I'll have the same. Like you said, I don't know all they have, either." She honestly wasn't as hungry as she had been on their way to Freeds for some strange reason, so she probably wouldn't eat much anyway.

As if beckoned by their decision, a server came up to them, a male in his thirties perhaps. A thick black mustache on his face and caterpillar-like eyebrows. Jack half-expected them to crawl off his face in search of leaves. Aside from the hair, he reminded Jack of a pug with his squashed-looking face and wrinkled forehead. "Hello," His voice was jolly, "I'm Caleb, I'll be your server. So what'll it be?" He asked. "Drinks, appetizers?" He offered.
"Chicken strips and a root beer." Jack said, then looked over to Hotaru.

The redhead looked up at Caleb. "I'll have the same, but with a Dr. Pepper instead." The waiter wrote down their orders and smiled at the two as he went off. Hotaru couldn't help but giggle a little.
"This reminds me when we went to the Wok when we first met." she told him, still laughing a little.

Jack snickered. "Yeah, that waitress still runs every time I go in." He blinked. "Do you get paid extra for watching me?" He asked, both serious and joking. Honestly curious if that was part of the deal or not. It probably was considering the frayed nerves of the staff that the manaement would even consider that.

Hotaru laughed and shrugged. "Only on days you show up." she replied, thinking about it a little more before laughing. "So you better start coming back more, alright?" she joked.

Jack gave a salute. "Ma'am yes ma'am!" He laughed out, glad to see Hotaru smiling. It was always a nice sight. "Anything to help the cause." He grinned, not entirely sure what 'cause' he was talking about.

His response made her giggle a llittle more. "Great!" she replied. It was always fun around him. "Are you planning on doing anything like that when we're here, too?" she asked, truly curious.

Jack shrugged and gave a mischievious smirk. "Depends, think you're up for it?" Already the gears in his mind were turning, coming up wih ways to mess with Caleb's head (or Freed's, depending on how everything panned out). Problem was, if he wasn't careful he'd end up banned (or put under heavy guard) at his second most favorite place to eat.

Hotaru couldn't help but smirk as well. "I did it last time, didn't I?" she responded. "What'cha have in mind this time?" she then asked, a little anxious.

Jack gave a shrug. "Dunno, kinda waiting for it to hit me..." Though he already had a plan formulating it was always nice to go on improv, but he'd have to wait for the server to come back for it to have any sort of fun effect. Especially since improv had always proved the most fruitful.

Hotaru nodded a little. "Alrighty." she said. "Well, while we're waiting for it to come up, there anything you wanna talk about?" she asked randomly. She stretched her arms out on the table slightly, not exactly sure what to do at the moment.

Jack shrugged, "We've already discussed psychopaths and chicken strips. What else is there to discuss? The caterpillar-brows of our waiter?" A creeping feeling settled along his spine and he was almost positive that if he were to look over his shoulder he'd see the waiter. Instead of turning around though, he simply asked, "He's right behind me, isn't he?" Almost so that it was more of a statement than a question.
