[The moment his head's outside, Ryou gets a pretty good whiff of the man just below them, and it's not flattering, to put it simply. He doesn't care for the smell of this guy. Then again, he doesn't really have to like his external scent to want to eat him, does he?
And...after all the energy he'd expended running back and forth between Kulen and Bavan, he definitely is hungry. Just seeing the human below, still and soulless, makes his stomach tighten, a reminder that "hey you've been asleep for a long time, maybe it's time to eat now."
...It's a nice little override to the general malaise he's been feeling. As if he knows eating will make everything better. Atem will probably have his answer before Ryou even speaks, just from context clues; Ryou's eyes seem to sharpen, and as he leans further over the edge with his too-long neck, he licks his lips, noisily. Obviously.]
I wouldn't mind that at all, but...Atem, I'm a messy eater, you know...
[It's one thing to eat human parts at home, small and simple. But eating a whole person could be off-putting.
At this point though, Atem can't very well take the offer back. Ryou's eyes are trained on the human husk below, very, very interested.]
