Whatever. When the cranberry cones were finished cooking and Nancy put them on the tray, she walked back to them, pushing it towards the younger Jeff's direction. Large soft drink bottle. Double-stacked hamburger. And the cranberry scones, of course. The ones Lash made fun of him eating alone. ("That's not a meal" "shut up miss calorie mate"). Without saying much more, she sat next to Maxwell and just...fiddled her thumbs for a while.
