Alistair eyes him, in between nibbles of the bread.
He's not really buying this I'm not hungry nonsense; a man doesn't order soup and a pastry if he's not hungry. Maybe Cullen's waiting for it to cool like he waits for his tea to cool. Alistair can hope it's just that, and not that he upset Cullen again.
(He knows he upset Cullen again.)
Bread finished, he adds a few more details to the nug sketch. CULLEN WORKING ON SOME DAM MATHEMATICS, he captions it. NO, REALLY. IT'S MATHEMATICS FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF DAMS. TELL YOUR MOTHER TO STOP LOOKING AT ME LIKE THAT.
