He supports him expertly in one arm, then heaves himself up to head to the mess hall, where he holds Jedao all through preparing a plate to bring back to his room- with lots of chicken for sharing.
Jedao manages to twist around and snatch an entire apple in his jaws, which he holds triumphantly despite not being able to chew it without dropping it. He looks both ridiculous and very pleased with himself.
Scolds Quentin, taking it from him, adding it to the plate before heading for the door. He only sets Jedao down when they're back in his room, and halves the apple for him first, offering it over.
Jedao makes Quentin wrestle him for it for a few seconds, tugging back and forth, before finally releasing it. He settles next to Quentin's side, and crunches his apple half contentedly.
He noses the offer of the apple slice back toward Quentin, but enjoys the rest, licking Quentin's fingertips as often as not, nuzzling into Quentin's hand.
He sits up very straight, after the compliment, still for a moment, almost at attention, but without the stiffness of it; contemplating. Then he leans in, head tilting up, and deliberately touches the tip of his nose to Quentin's, one paw placed or braced on Quentin's leg.
You, he means by the gesture, for all that he isn't worrying as much about words anymore. You're extremely excellent too.
