They sit quietly.
She eats slowly while Theo watches, trying not to look worried.
Theo
Theo
Next time, don't get sick.

Agatha
Yeah, I planned this flu like a vacation.
Theo
Theo
You're lucky I care about you or else I'd let you melt like a snowman.
Agatha
Agatha
... You care about me?
Theo
Theo
Obviously.
Theo
Theo
Who else would I tease if you're gone?
Agatha chuckles softly.
She looks at him.
His eyes aren't teasing this time. They're... Soft.
Theo
Theo
You Know...
Theo
Theo
Even with that messy bun and red nose...
Theo
Theo
You're still kinda cute.
Agatha
Agatha
Don't flirt with me when I look like a boiled potato.
Theo

Hey. I like boiled potatoes.
She hides her smile behind the spoon.
Theo notices... And smiles too.
Agatha
Agatha
Thanks for coming.
Theo
Theo
Don't get used to it.
Theo
Theo
I only do this for sick penguins.
Agatha
Agatha
Penguins?
