[whoops the cafeteria sure is a murderer! Simon makes a long, whiny eeeeee noise under his breath when Hershel mentions Calhoun being serious about his rules, and he makes the noise again a second later when Hershel implies that they might not be totally in the clear just yet. He's getting heartburn, man. Maybe it's just because that food looked like a mass of grey rather than anything real, but he's gonna start stressing out again if he doesn't make himself chill.
He doesn't seem to pick up on any dryness in Hershel's tone, though, or if he does, he opts not to comment on it. He focuses on steadying his own breathing again, and when he feels calm, he stops walking down the hall. He looks back at the cafeteria, frowning, and when he speaks, he sounds kind of fucking crazy. Or at least - he says something pretty stupid.]
Maybe...
Maybe we could try to get some more food? Calhoun hasn't done anything, and if you really did find a loophole in his rules, wouldn't it be better to take advantage of it than to just pretend it doesn't exist? I-If you were right, then... all of us could stay fed, even when things get bad...
