( Jack's keen, astute people-senses suggest Kyle might be being slightly judgmental. He takes a moment or two to decide whether or not he feels defensive about it, but in the end decides he doesn't actually care. It's probably a fair thing to judge.

( In terms of regularity if not necessarily hydration. )

At least it's working? Also, believe it or not, surprisingly tasty.
