[ He doesn't bother clarifying Namasu—if he doesn't know what it is, then Shino knows he can't explain it. He's not longing for any one kind of food or another, only the company, and the fact Shi Qingxuan is here now means more than any dish that couldn't capture the people he loves and misses back home. Let alone those who, like his father, are forever beyond him.

Instead he's hovering like he's uncertain what to do, waiting to be put to some use or another, with proper tea steeped and ready to drink. ]
