[Noah doesn't respond to the question if that's how he thinks of himself with words, only gives Gansy a wry and slightly exasperated expression.
He tries not to be a downer, tries to make people happy, because Noah is uniquely situated to understand how little in life actually matters and how much making people's lives easier and better does matter in reflection to that.
He's also a murder victim. That doesn't come with a lot of pleasant strings tied to it.]
I feel ... a little hungry. And cold. Irony.
[He starts with the mundane first because that's easier.]
It isn't as bad the second time. I - I know what I'm expecting now.
[He realizes belatedly he's still holding on to Gansey and sort of reluctantly lets go of the other boy, rubbing one of his arms, bare without the sweater over his t-shirt.]
