[ He's never hung out before in his life, but even if he did, he's not sure why anyone would want to with him. So he drops by Clary's room, but with the intent to just drop the candy off.
Too bad it's been a while since he's been stealthy, so he's a little rusty at it.]
[ She just smiles sweetly as though she would never do any thing of the sort. ]
Just get in the bunk. We're having a candy education. And probably putting down the curtain so d'Artagnan doesn't come back and try to duel you ... [ Because that would be awkward. Please don't fight her roommate, Alex. ]
I'd win. [ But he enters and sits, looking extremely uncomfortable. He's feeling awkward in more ways than one, and he'd actually welcome D'Artagnan busting in if only because he's sure how to handle it.]
Because the joy of the world can be found in food. [ With a little duh sound to her voice. ] If you didn't like it you could morph into a crow or something and I'd never find you, so you must.
[ She makes a hmming noise as she surveys the selection, eventually picking out one she recognises. Alex seems like a sour kind of guy ... with candy, anyway. ]
Alex takes the candy from her, looking at it for a moment before unwrapping and eating it. ]
... [ Silence, just like when he first had the milkshake. But this time it's different, this time the taste almost makes sense. The acid tingles too, though not in an unpleasant way. He may just be smiling...slightly.]
It's not bad. [That's about as much admission as she's going to get that she's succeeded.]

Why do you want to teach me stuff like this?

But I bet there's space candy in this pile somewhere.
no subject
What makes you think I'd even like something here?
no subject
[ She pulls her knees to her chest and spreads out the candy on her blanket. ] Besides, now we can hang out and eat sugar.
no subject
You choose, then. [ He crosses his arm indignantly.]
no subject
Here.

What's it called anyway?
no subject
[ For a moment she just diligently picks out all the sour ones and then grins at him. ] I knew I'd get my way eventually.
