Ben is glad for the crackers as well, because if he were honest with himself, he was famished. He'd barely had time to scarf down oatmeal before getting told it was training time.

He shoved another cracker in his mouth and chewed, seeming to relax a bit more. His tummy rumbled and not from creatures inside. He choked down the chewed cracker and mumbled. "I guess." About going up stairs. He looked down at himself, still a bit of a mess. Sweaty and gross from training but also from summoning things out of his skin. He frowned. "I need to change anyhow."
