[In all his time with them, Kousetsu has never seen Hakusan be inconsiderate. If anything, he tends to be too considerate of others sometimes. A lot of it, Koustesu knows, is due to conditioning. never before had he been asked what he wanted for dinner, or if he'd like to go to bed early. In certain ways, Hakusan reminds him of O-Sayo a little. They both have trouble with words sometimes, they are quiet and observant.
And also, there are a lot of feelings boiling under the surface, but they both are unsure of how to make them come out. Kousetsu lets Aruji send O-Sayo to battle even thought he clearly dislikes it and disapproves, because it feels like O-Sayo needs it. But he also appreciates that she gave them Samonji brothers a room of their own, and that she encourages all of them, Souza too, to simply live together and enjoy each other's company. he loves those simple days where they work in the fields, and cook, and play, and then go to sleep with full bellies and good memories.
And just like with O-Sayo, Kousetsu never minds giving Hakusan a bit of time and space for him to find the right word, or to gently guide him sometimes when he is unsure. And, of course, Chougi likes Hakusan, which only makes Kousetsu even more willing to help out their new little comrade to adapt.
The word comes out, and Kousetsu blinks, then nods.]
Alright. Let's get some, then.
[It is not lost on him that also he did say Hakusan could eat meat if he wanted to, he still chose not to.]
... Did you want us to eat the same thing?
[That is sweet.
Kousetsu will purchase the food, and then send Hakusan to the next stand over so he can get the chicken skewers for melon while he goes and gets drinks and secures a spot to sit.]
