[To the surprise of absolutely no one.

Shadowbringers spoilers abound beyond this point.]

[He just continues to stare at her for a moment. But, then, with the most tired of sighs, he lifts a hand and takes a sandwich in between two gloved fingers - not even particularly caring to look at what kind it is, but simply taking the closest one to himself from her lap.]

To the spirit of cooperation, I suppose.

[Where did he get the napkin he unfolds with a snap of his other hand to lay across his lap? A good question, and one he's not going to answer today.

[Ah, a victory. Dakki nods and smiles as he takes a sandwich, not really noticing that he hadn't been at all choosy. Nor really noticing that a handkerchief has apparently appeared from nowhere. Such a thing is... on theme for him. Consistent with the guise he has chosen for himself. It fits him, the object and the action.

Though something else about him still seems ill-worn and out of sorts. All his slouching and strolling and eye-rolling had felt like some sort of performance he was making, at first. A grand show of how little he cares, when he actually cares very, very deeply. But the weight on his shoulders....

A small amount. They've yet to proceed on to the Rak'tika Greatwood, after all. He has yet to perform any particularly kind deeds.]

The greatest of journeys begins with the smallest of steps.

[Said before oh-so-delicately wiping a bit of mustard off his lips. That is what napkins are for, after all.

...Perhaps he'll take another, in a minute or two.]

Though that does beg the question of why you sought me out, considering exactly how keen you and your companions have been on not cooperating.
