[ that would make sense, in a lot of ways, for just about anyone else. and yeah, okay - lance is still upset about being just lance again, and he probably will be for a while. he doesn't know if they'll ever get their powers back, but he should probably just be excited he got to have them at all, right? right. definitely.

( and he's not at all letting himself think about it because he'll get really sad and probably won't want to do anything at all. he's better than that! )

so mako mentions trying custard and lance immediately jumps at the idea to get out of his room and as distracted as he can possibly be. has he ever had ginger custard before? no. does he think he'll like it? he's not sure. but considering some of the...more experimental things that hunk has tried, he's pretty sure he's up to try just about anything. plus- he does want to see mako lightning bend. like. a lot. ]

Heeeyyyy Mako, what's- [ lance pops his head in just in time to see mako motioning for him to take a seat. and he probably would have said more, except that he's very much distracted by the fact mako just took something out of the oven bare handed and lance is very concerned.

if he trips over himself a little to take a seat, well. mako just be a bro. ]

Okay, okay, whoa- if you're talking about spicy, I'm pretty sure I can handle anything. [ okay but he's being totally honest with this bit, looking way too pleased with himself. ] If it's not melting my face off it's got to right to be called 'spicy' so.
