Loud banging indicated that Noor was running up the stairs. They burst into the bedroom, and Sunset rolled over in the bed to see what they wanted. He had slept in while Noor got up early to feed the dolphins.
"Someone's excited." he mumbled, stifling a yawn. He sat up in the bed to see what Noor wanted; an entrance like this meant that Noor had found something to be excited about. He saw Noor standing at the end of the bed, rocking back and forth on their heels like an exciting school girl. Sunset raised an eyebrow.
"Sunset, Sunset, oh my god," said Noor, or at least, that's what Sunset thought they said. The sentence came out as one garbled word. "The Walmart on the mainland, bags of Swedish Fish are fifty cents a piece."
Sunset yawned, stretched, then slid out of the bed. He turned to Noor.
"Let me guess; you want to go pick up as many bags as possible?" Noor nodded vigorously, and Sunset chuckled. "Let me get some clothes on and take a shower, then we can go."

The trip had been good, though Sunset figured Noor had enjoyed it more than he had. On top of the regular supplies that they needed for the island, Noor came home with 73 bags of Swedish Fish. Loading them onto the boat had not been a fun experience, and Sunset wondered if Noor was going to be able to eat them all.
As he put the milk they had bought into the fridge, he glanced at his partner. Noor was doing their best to fit as many bags of Swedish Fish as possible into the tiny snack bin they shared. Sunset grinned.
"They're not all going to fit in there." he said. Noor shot him a determined look.
"It's ok, I'll just eat whatever doesn't fit."
