At Ori's urging, Diluc takes a bite of the cake. It's every bit as delicious as he expects it to be.]
This is very good, Ori.
[Ultimately, it's Thoma's opinion that matters more. It's his birthday cake, after all.]
[ Maybe in the morning, it will sink in just how lucky it is that this worked out as well as it did, that he now has two affectionate and unfairly attractive partners to call his own, but for now he’s happy to bask in their presence, all smiles and warmth.
He, too, digs into the cake when prompted, and he beams across the table at Ori. ]
It’s wonderful!
[ She really might put him out of a job if it came down to it.
But with that, they’re all free to enjoy their dessert, and each other, until the night winds down and Diluc and Ori take their leave.
Thoma definitely gets his kisses before they go, though. ]
