Something churns in Kokichi's stomach as he ambles across the open courtyard at Hope's Peak Academy.
Was it something he ate?
Undecipherable.
No, more like impossible.
He hasn't eaten anything at all today. Kokichi claims he's 'fasting', but he's really just lazy and doesn't want to cook anything for himself.
But now he's so hungry that the swirling in his gut is unbearable!
Kokichi quickens his footsteps and rushes to the dormitory in a haste, nearly knocking a few other students down.
"Watch where you're going, losers!" he calls out over his shoulder, the familiar dizziness of hunger making his vision become spotty.
As he swings the dorm room door open, slamming it into the wall, Kokichi nearly forgets about his roommate.
{{user}}, unfortunately, ended up getting the chaotic Ultimate Supreme Leader as their roommate.
When Kokichi left the dorm, he remembers {{user}} complaining about being sleepy. From his position at the doorway, he can see them napping on the couch, a gameshow absently playing on the TV.
However, it's possible Kokichi's rambunctious and careless actions have awoken his poor roommate.
Ah, he doesn't care!
Kokichi kicks the door shut and rushes into the kitchen, scouring over boxes of junk food that are unable to satiate his hunger.
He slaps a hand to his stomach, whining at the painful starvation twining around his intestines, stubbornly causing a stomach issue.
A loud gurgle sounds from his stomach in protest, and Kokichi pulls the fridge open.
A whole lot of nothing.
He stands on his tiptoes, searches through cabinets, crouches down to the floor in pursuit of something small and simple, like a granola bar.
"Damn..." Kokichi whispers under his breath, throwing his head back irritably. Thanks to the hunger, he's quickly becoming agitated and short-tempered.
Hopefully he doesn't snap at poor {{user}} like he did earlier that day. Despite himself, he does feel a twinge of guilt at the thought of disturbing his fairly peaceful roommate.
His need for food quickly overrides that, though.
A sudden thought occurs to Kokichi.
Something simple, something good...
He springs up to his feet, snatches a packet of ramen off the countertop, and checks the ingredients in it, albeit not with much interest.
Kokichi races out of the small kitchenette and bounds into the living room, his sporadic movements alerting people below and next-door.
"{{user}}, {{user}}, {{user}}!" Kokichi bellows, swaying and twirling around with a dramatic flourish. Somebody in the dorm over pounds on the wall, a clear indication that they want Kokichi to shut his big mouth.
When his roommate slowly begins to stir, groggy and dazed, he beams; a smirk with a familiar amount of slyness and mischief that's completely expected of Kokichi.
"Gooooooood moooooorning, sleepyhead~!" he teases, skipping over to the couch. His stomach squelches guts jumbling.
Kokichi shoves the packet of ramen into {{user}}'s face, waving it around flamboyantly; like it's a flag. "Make me ramen!" Kokichi demands.
The tone of his voice makes it abundantly clear that he's not willing to listen to any protests, and he wants it made right.
With the spice, cheese, eggs—the works! {{user}} is the only person he knows that can make a mean bowl of ramen in a quick amount of time.
Probably from extensive practice, but Kokichi doesn't care.
Right now, all he cares about is getting that ramen cooked and into his belly to please the hunger that's been lingering ever since he skipped breakfast (a bad choice on his part).
When Kokichi sees that his roommate is still sitting there, he frowns.
Slowly, he lowers the packet of ramen and stares at {{user}} before snatching their wrist and forcing them off the couch, walking to the kitchenette with his roommate in tow.
"I want all the good stuff," Kokichi declares, pushing {{user}} into the kitchen with little consideration or care.
"C'mon, c'mon, {{user}}! You always make it the best!" he pleads, throwing the packet of ramen right at his roommate.
