He noises in agreement. Tea right now sounded quite nice. Walking around in his condition had numbed his feet somewhat, and any amount of warning up was welcome.
Tea preferences? "I like those ones with milk." Owen said. "And sugar." He nodded eagerly. "I can eat anything." As far as he knew, anyway.

"Milk and sugar? Right, we'll be needing the kitchen for that. Uhhh, hmm." [She browsed through her co-worker's collection of teas. Which would he like? What even goes with milk and tea? Better yet, what does she want too? Geez, this is taking too long.]
[Bother. She closed the box and picked it up. She probably wouldn't mind. They're all tea bags anyway.] "Yeah, let's see what we can make. Do you have a favorite at least?"
[She tucked the box under her arm and picked up her jacket and spare keys to the room. She tried not to think about the oopsie from earlier as she looked back at the boy.] "You sure you're warm enough? You can borrow my jacket, if you want." [Say, wonder how well her old clothes fitted him? Wonder what he even did with them.]

Owen shook his head. He just had whatever was there, really. But since he felt Salvia wasn't the type to know about tea, he thought he'd at least help. In his odd way, since he couldn't remember exactly what it was he wanted to say. "I like... that tea that sounds like someone important. Like an important name..." He wondered a little more. "Like... ash...?"
He just followed after her after thinking on the spot for a little longer. Although he had to stop to think again when Salvia offered her clothes. "I'm tidy." He shook his head.
"I'm dead."

[Important names? Hahahahaha f-ck that. Anything but names were Salvia's specialty.] "Ehhh, we probably gotchu covered. Pick out any one of these you want when we get there, I guess."
[His last statement felt so abrupt and random to her that Salvia couldn't help but laugh a little.] "You sure, kiddo? You look like you're holding on to the last bits of your heartbeat there." [Say, not bad.] "Hold up." [She stopped in the hallway to pick out her pocket notebook and pen to write that remark down. Got it.] "Seriously, you don't get cold, bro?"

Owen nodded. He'd probably remember the name when he saw it. He continued to ponder the identity of the tea on the way there, though...
"Is it funny, Salvia?" He stopped walking and looked at her, confused. No one really laughed at that. He wasn't really sure why it was funny... "I do get cold. But I can't get a cold. I'm dead. It's ok because I'm dead." To further disprove his point he had to readjust the blanket around his shoulders. "There's a lot nice about being dead..."

"Ah, nah, sorry. I'm derpin' up tonight. Big time. Say, uhhhh, how were the old clothes I got ya? Did they fit alright, are they, um . . . moth-free or whatever?" [she awkwardly asked as they neared the kitchen, running out of things to fill in the silence.]
[Once they were in, she set the box down at the counter and began rummaging for a good kettle and some cups.] "Go through that box and pick whichever you like. You uhhhhhh drink whole milk, 2% . . . soy? Almond? Coconut???" [She squinted at the selection of various bottles and cartons and jugs of milk in the fridge when she opened it. Why is there so many?]

"They are tidy." he smiled with his eyes. "They fit. I wear them when it seems fit." He quite liked a number of them that he did toss the jackets over his work clothes when he had to leave HQ. It was somehow nice wearing different things all the time.
He followed her to the counter and fingered through the box. He was looking for that one tea he'd temporarily misplaced the name of... there it was, Earl Grey. He pulled it out and looked back at the fridge, almost looking like he was enchanted by the glow of the lights inside it. "I drink anything..." he didnt really care. He was now dangling the teabag before his eyes and observing its changing opacity in front of the light of the fridge. Ah, he could see all the little leaves inside the bag...

"Alright. Whole milk it is." [She pulled out the big ol' jug and set it on the table.] "Okay, uhhhh sugar, sugar . . ." [She hummed a song that had something to do with sugar to herself while she opened up dem loud pantries. She pulled out random items that looked like they contained something of granular substance. Don't mistake the sugar for salt now . . .]
"Do you have a preference on sugar too?" [Swear to some god, she hope he doesn't mention like crap-what-was-it-called Tarantino sugar or something fancy like that. She don't know what that is.]
"Oh yeah, you want snacks or something?" [She asked as she looked up again and found herself staring into the abyss of cookies and chips.

"Any sugar." He said, still staring at the tea bag. He looked over when Salvia was asking about snacks and oh my, the selection... His eyes lit up as he looked into the cupboard. So much food... "C-Cookies." He said with an eager nod.

[HELL YEAH that's her boi.'] "Cool cool. What kind? There's like . . . Oreos and chocolate and Chips Ahoy and those gourmet ones and those fancy ones and those weird Asian ones I think they're rice crackers or something and yeah holy shit there's a lot. You choose, dude."
(apologies over Salvia's opinions on Asian snacks ;;;;; )

"Oreos..." He looked rather excited for a simple pack of biscuits, really. As excited one could look with a tiny smile and bright eyes, anyway. He shook the tea bag in his hand in front of the lights, still mildly entertained.

"Oreos it is. You want like regular? Double-stuffed? Mega-stuffed? Birthday cake, peanut butter, mint, chocolate creme, golden, reversed, watermelon . . . actually, just pick the one you want and I'll get that tea for you." [She left the kid to do his thing and went to look for the other items. She browsed through the medicine to pull out the sugar, the most clever place to hide it as Maxwell would never think to go near there and steal the granular goodness. Sienna was too clever, but Salvia hoped Blanket Boy wouldn't detect or mind if there was a lingering smell of medicine from the sugar.]

He stood up and looked at the selection in the cupboard. Why did they have so many types? He reached for the chocolate ones with the tea bag wrapped around his finger, his other hand holding tight to the blanket over his shoulders. Once it was down from the shelf, Owen stared at the packet for a moment before standing around absentmindedly, looking at Salvia, as if she'd tell him what to do next.

[In the meantime, Salvia had found the kettle and filled it up with tap water from the sink. While it gradually heated up, she fetched two random mugs from the cupboard. He probably wouldn't care if one was a cheap-looking cartoon dog from Hell and the other had a cat meme on it. For all she knew, they both probably belonged to Surya. She set them both on the counter next to the uncovered sugar while she looked for the spoons and made sure if she got the milk. What kind of tea should she have?]

He watched her take out all the necessary items to make tea, and leaned over the counter. He put the Oreos next to the mugs and lied his head down on the edge, looking at the world sideways.
