[And he'll do just as Souji said, sitting himself down and taking in the full sight and scent of all the goodies. His eyes are still a bit watery, but--
He's happy. And it's a kind of happiness, rooted in the comfort of something he knows so, so well, that he hasn't felt for some time.]
[ souji makes sure to pull out a seat for tatsuma as fancy as he can before he sits and then, rather than sitting as well, souji continues to stand. someone's gotta play the handsome butler and serve the food, right? so he goes ahead and cuts a nice slice of the pie, placing it on a plate and putting it down in front of tatsuma. the utensils have already been set at the table and souji looks expectedly at tatsuma to try it, small butterflies fluttering in his stomach as he's worried if it'll taste just tatsuma remembers ]
[ souji doesn't reply with anything but a small laugh and a nod. all right, all right, if tatsuma insists then he will seat himself down as well. he will grab a seat next to tatsuma and get himself a slice on a plate. before he takes a bite though, he leans over to give tatsuma a quick kiss on the cheek. ]
[ all right, they should dig in! souji will keep glancing over at tatsuma to see his reaction to tasting the pie ]
[There's another small, pleased breath at that kiss, the laugh that isn't quite a laugh. He's going to really, seriously need to thank Souji for everything later - because there's so much Souji's done for him, in spite of how difficult things have been lately.
The efforts he goes through for others... it's truly what Tatsuma loves most about him.
Once Souji's seated, Tatsuma won't waste too much more time, since even he's aware Souji must want to know the result of his work. And so, he takes a bite, savoring the taste on his tongue as he chews.]

...It's best if you eat it with people.
[That's part of the secret behind it;
It's not something to be eaten alone.]
