Summary
When he goes home and can't sleep, he dips into the liquor he'd inherited from Himeno and looks through his recipe binder, picking through pink and yellow pages for this and this and this; quick pickled peppers, a salty pork soup they'd made for his brother, a stained flashcard with a cramped pastry recipe. It isn't much, Aki thinks as he looks down at the small collection he was able to filter out, and he finds himself repeating this out loud the next day in the park when he holds out a bag of tupperware.
"But hopefully they'll remind you of-"
'Home,' he'd almost said, but Angel doesn't seem to notice. He'd already accepted the bag and was peering inside pensively.
To Aki, his partner's shine of excitement was undeniable. He allowed himself a small moment of accomplishment before he started to worry if maybe this had been a mistake.
"Thank you," Their voice is a bit breathless, their surprise melting into something tender and altogether too soft for Aki to look at directly. So he looked down at their shoes instead before he found himself digging out a cigarette and hiding to the side to light it.
