[He pauses, then laughs to himself. He closes the door behind him as he comes in, then goes over to Aventurine, gently shaking his boyfriend's shoulder.]
[Which he promptly hands over-- The food in the containers within? Avgin-style food. Which promptly explains why he prepared it elsewhere, if it was supposed to be a surprise--Aventurine would've clocked it immediately had he done so at home.]
I've been learning for a while now, and yes, this is why I left. I really wanted to surprise you with this and you would've figured it out immediately if I hadn't.
