Noah goes to Nino's with everyone when he's got the energy for it, even if he doesn't eat anything. Other things make it worth the effort when he gets bullied into accompanying them.

Right now he's looking at the sticker machine over by the restrooms while the others enjoy pizza. They've got the large glittery ones, but as Noah roots through his pockets just in case...

He sighs. Of course.

"No quarters..."

yells!

Every once in a while, when the boys have been on their best behavior - by which, of course, he means that none of them have managed to get themselves caught in the middle of any of their unsavory extracurricular activities - he brings the residents of Litchfield House to Nino's for a night of grease and debauchery. ( As much as can be debauched at a pizzeria in the middle of the week, on a school night, when every one of them knows they should be putting their time to better use and, obstinately, refuses. )

It should go without saying that there's a small part of him that would rather be in his room, sans pants, watching someone else play a video game that he can't be bothered to play for himself.

He's just coming out of the restroom, a wad of paper towels in his hands when he almost bumps into Noah, standing there as he is, looking as though the world might just end for his lack of quarters. He pauses, searches through his pockets, finds a few bits of lint among his keys, wallet and phone, and he frowns.

"Small change, always a problem." He huffs out a breath, good-naturedly. "I bet if you pulled hard enough, you could just snag one. Not that I'm advocating petty theft." Ah, and there's a smile. "Have you tried looking on the floor for runaway coins?"

Henry.

That Noah and Henry never got to interact is the real tragedy of trc

Noah sighs, dejected. Yes the world is ending for his lack of quarters.

"Everyone uses credit cards here," Noah says with a shrug, looking back at the sticker machine. "Maybe Gansey has some he'll let me borrow."

i agree with this 100% :<

The world is not, in fact, ending due to Noah's lack of quarters. It's just a minor setback - something easily remedied, if one were to put their mind to it properly.

But then he's distracted infinitely by the name that falls out of his mouth next, and his expression visibly brightens. Turns into something curious. "Dick Gansey? You're here with him?" There's a pause, and he gives Noah a better look, a once-over he'd foregone previously. "You've got the look, but I've never seen you before." He hmms, head tilted to the side.

"New?"

natural language is thought + mindreader COME ON

[casperdisaster]

"Not really," Noah answers with a sigh. "I died seven seven years ago."

Henry won't hear him though, because no one hears Noah when he tells them. No one gets to know until their time, apparently.

"I don't really go to classes anymore."

Well, it isn't not true.

i think stiefvater did that on purpose tbh, to make us want it. :|

Henry won't hear him? Oh, dear pale white boy, you underestimate him.

He does hear it, not particularly because he's listening carefully, but more because he's accustomed to picking up on the things people say in regular conversation that one would normally miss. The small things. The inherently more important things.

Which means that when it dawns on him that he hadn't misheard, he's giving Noah a rather blank look, hands slipping into his pockets. "Sorry, but did you just say you died seven years ago?" There's a beat of a pause, and one of his hands comes back out of its pocket, only to knock against the wall in quiet thought.

"If that was an attempt at a joke, I'm going to have to humbly request that you rethink a career in comedy."
