The way that this creature is distracted from the conversation by the arriving servants is a clear reminder that he truly is some animalistic demon in human form. He is in the middle of giving a funny, amused look at Huaisang's request as they enter, but the activity and scent of food pulls his attention away immediately.

He grins and leans more heavily on the arms he has crossed on the table, leering at them as if he's considering eating them instead of the dishes they're carrying.

He's just teasing, though. The prospect of lunch just has him excited.

The chopsticks are the next point of curiosity. He'd never played "person" long enough in the countries that use them to end up using them himself. He's a fast learner when it comes to physical matters, though. Attention shifting to Huaisang's hands, he leans a little further across the table to watch (and quickly copy with surprising success) while he finally remembers Huaisang's question.

"What do I want in return? Don't know if I've ever been asked that before. I'm a hound. You're holding my leash."
