Eric

"Hey Eric? Do I look 100 pounds to you" Ash said. 

Eric choked on his steak for a moment and had to recompose himself. Something told him not to answer the question and just act like he had never heard him, but instead he answered. 

"Ummmmm...Well you do look bigger than before. I mean not "bigger" but buffer. Not to say that being bigger is bad, no its good. Umm...you look good is what I mean, well ya so." Eric was eating his potatoes faster and not even looking at Ash. 

He finished his meal and poured Ash and him a glass of wine perfectly. Hi smother had taught him all the major points of eating fancy and he used them most of the time without thinking. He tasted the wine and it was well aged and perfect, he took a second sip and smiled.

"It is really good, aged well. Try it, I prefer wine over most of the other alcohols, and its good for you." He said this with a smile and put his glass down. 

One thought did come to his mind, what would they do now. Eric still had a few weeks left on his transformation, and Mabel had yet to pop up and it was just him and Ash. 

"Well what do you want to do now?"
