“I mean, I think you’re funny.”
As Daniel took another sip of his drink, his smirk was soon replaced with a soft smile. Perhaps he was surprised or simply wasn’t expecting that to come out of her mouth - but it was a good surprise. It wasn’t often nowadays that someone truly enjoyed Daniel’s presence. Well… besides Jessica, though she was stuck with him. No, as of recently people more tended towards avoiding Daniel and as that happened, Daniel fell more and more into filling the role of the center of people’s hatred. “Much obliged, I too think I’m hilarious,” Daniel smiled, leaning against the table as she continued to talk.
"Everyone has to eat, so… yeah, it’s pretty good. Also, what else could I do? Socialize? Definitely not.
Shaking his head ever-so-slightly, Daniel responded “Well don’t knock yourself short - you’re not doing too bad at the socializing thing. Though who am I to say - I’m not great at it either. But it’s always good to meet a fellow… normal human who eats,” though, with both Ruby and Daniel… normal was probably the last thing he should have said. Though, the man agreed at her next sentiment about Mikel. “He’s making a fool of himself - though I can’t say I’m surprised. This is Mikel Lukas we’re talking about. senior class drug addict. And the girl - let’s just say she’s not too great herself” Daniel uttered. Though, it almost hurt to talk about a man he considered one of his closest friends only a few months prior like that. Though, suffice to say, Daniel Parker was hurt. And when he was hurt, especially by those he trusted, there was no fixing that. They were no longer people he cared about… simply people he knew about.
