[The joy of fingerless gloves is that Ezra doesn't feel like he has to pull his off anytime he wants to eat. He just has to be careful to hold the roll only by his fingertips, but he probably would have done that anyway. Reassured (and fascinated, if he's honest, watching the food Dezel's eating literally seem to disappear), he finally risks biting into his roll.
Mmm. Okay, totally worth it now. Ezra doesn't answer for a moment, taking the time to slowly chew and savor that first bite. In an odd mirror, he's careful about not wasting crumbs either, though not because of any desire to be neat. It's just a habit born from frugality.]
That's good, at least. That you have people who'll help out that much. It must be hard getting jobs, though, if people can't see you.
[He tries to picture Dezel chasing rabbits with the wind and the farmer just standing there, having no clue what's going on. The image makes the corners of his mouth tug upward into a smile that he quickly hides back in his roll. He shouldn't laugh at what could be a real problem.]
