Really, it’s only Mr. Yang and himself— Ever since he was left here with them, the roles to keep an eye on the other man had quietly fallen to the two of them, if not mostly the older man just to keep the Express’ Guard safe.

The comment on the dish itself and its apparent inedible state to anyone else does make his gaze drift to the bowl, eyes narrowing in a mix of suspicion and curiosity now.

It's bad enough that he's in this situation to begin with, but to be so casually reminded that he has no freedom here by HIM of all people? It's infuriating.~
Whether or not he’s serious about that, he’ll have to figure that out on his own. Dan Heng’s expression doesn’t exactly give away anything, though.

Blade isn't budging, rooted in place as though he were welded there against the wall, unable to move even if he wanted to (which he did not).
"You waste time, resources and energy better spent elsewhere, 𝘋𝘢𝘯 𝘏𝘦𝘯𝘨. I may be trapped on this vessel but my cooperation~

“We take turns on who cooks, between those of us that can. Welt was busy, March and Himeko can’t cook, and you need to eat. Which is why I’m bringing it. Eat so I can take the bowl back.”

…. But as long as he stays over there, while Dan Heng stays over here, then maybe he’ll relax soon.
