Polishing off the rest of his sandwich as quickly as possible (swallowing is still a bit difficult, but he poker-faces it as best he can), he flips a few coins of his own into the tip jar and leans on the counter to watch her eat, grinning all the while. "If it's all the same to you, though," he points out, "I'd rather have the mystery bike. Adds a little bit of interest to life."
He's only just beginning to realize how starved for that he is. Which is in itself interesting. But how grim would life be if he couldn't at least amuse himself?
