[He forces his shoulders to relax. They're practically standing in the middle of a shopping mall dolled up for the holidays--all they're really missing is the crappy Christmas music blaring from wall speakers. It's on the ridiculous side to be talking about this.
And as far as jokes go... it's not untrue. Crazy's already all around them. Should that make him feel better or make him feel worse that he's adding to it?
He's silent, but he nods a little, an acknowledging gesture. It's not sappy until someone starts crying and they have to hug it out, but that's unlikely to happen with a stranger. He doesn't want to be that bad. Food, though... The man hits on a secret perk to having a physical body. Honestly? Binging on anything he wants when he has half a mind to do so has been one of the few good points to being Adam again.
It's not a bad plan, either.]
