He didn’t care too much for sweets,
but the look she was giving Thanatos was enabling him to try at least a few bites. After all, she did go to the trouble of purchasing such a mundane treat for them to share. A sigh escaped thin lips–pale as he was, it was easy to see the hues of red flushed over his cheeks. He hated how well his hobotic heart reacted to brainwaves–feeling his sympathetic nervous system get him worked up over something as–silly–as sharing a desert. She was attractive–but it didn’t mean he felt anything towards her. Perhaps it was his animal instincts to reproduce that was causing this effect. Still, he took up the spoon in front of him, and took a small chunk of the top of the desert. He didn’t know what it was called–or what it was made of. All he knew was that his lips were parting and he was taking a bite. It flattens in his mouth, easily squished between his tongue and the roof of his mouth. The taste was sweet, as expected, but a hint of fruit was there. Vanilla too? It certainly threw his taste buds in a swirl–tastebuds normally not used.

If Vivian ever noticed the effect her looks had on Thanatos, it remained yet to be seen from the confused blinks rolling off her lashes. Why, oh why was his face suddenly such a bright magenta colour? Had it been that hot inside? Was the air conditioning not enough to cool down his temperature? As far as Vivian was concerned, all she did was encourage Thanatos to take a bite out of that strawberry shortcake. One way or another, though, she awaits his personal judgement with bated breath. By the time he finishes, Vivian begins to beam, allowing her eyes to shine in excitement.
“ Isn’t it?! I knew you wouldn’t mind the taste! ” Petite fingers joined together at the tips, though why she became so overjoyed he found their dessert satisfactory was a mystery in itself. Then again, Vivian had always been an oddball. “ Hey, hey, feed me some too, Thanny-kins? I forgot to bring ALONG another spoon. ” She leans forward, widening her mouth with the expectation he would wedge a morsel through her lips.
