Sure, it's likely that there's something wrong with Matthias since he's with Seong and Seong is a mess, but he's not seen much real evidence of it yet. If it's there, Seong needs to see it to believe it. Logically, he knows that no one is perfect and that obviously applies to Matthias as well, but logic has no place anywhere in Seong's mind when he's with Matthias.

Seong gathers up some of the mushrooms and peppers onto his fork to have some of them without the pasta interfering, and he smiles to himself as he chews them. While he may not truly grasp the overall significance of eating together, he knows what it means to him. To get to share a meal with someone he cares about, that was prepared by that same person means a lot to him. It feels special. It makes him feel special. A meal prepared with him in mind and one that doesn't make him feel like his dietary restrictions are a burden. It makes him feel special.

And he wants Matthias to feel special too. He wants to return the favour by cooking for him too. Something that he's never done for anyone and never wanted to do for anyone.

Just Matthias.

"I would," he says after swallowing his food, lifting his chin a little defiantly. As if Seong would even try to kick Matthias out of his own kitchen. As if Seong would try to kick Matthias out of anywhere.
