[Ayabe is trying his best all around and therefore no one can criticize him!!! Subete can totally let some amusement show up in his smile back, though, because it's just kind of funny, all the same.]

[He pauses and ruffles a hand through his hair. It's hard to read his expression, but it's still some shade of amused for all that.]

... My ex-partner and I used to eat at the cafeteria where I lived. [yeah, there was a whole-ass cafeteria just to supply the place] I guess she wasn't the type that liked eating with people, though. But I'm okay with meeting up for mealtimes if you are.

[Truly the strange new life of having someone to sit with in the cafeteria!!!]
