Jake took a moment longer to finish his stew, and made a slight sound of protest when Dirk got up to put his own dish in the sink. When he followed a moment later he bumped sideways into him.
"Guests aren't supposed to clear their own dishes, gosh," he muttered, rinsing the bowls once his had joined Dirk's (and Jade's, from earlier). Jade tutted from the table.
"You're more than welcome, Dirk," she said. "I'm far from opposed to feeding hungry teenagers, especially if they like my food and want to see my lab." She grinned, the sparkle in her eye much younger than her years, and scooted her chair back to stand. "Speaking of, whenever you're ready I can take you down to see it."
Jake patted his thigh and made a clicking sound with his teeth, absently, and Becquerel picked up his dish in his teeth and climbed down from his chair (which was more of a bench, really) and brought it over to him. For it he received headpats and a smile.
