[Honestly, who would have expected to be going on about the food being offered this much? But now that it's been mentioned, it makes Corrin wonder.
Sure, it may just be an oversight. That's the simplest explanation, and very likely true. However, it's not entirely out of the question that there's more to it. There usually is, he's learned, with these people. He's only been able to interact with them for a brief period of time, of course, but every interaction feels like it's full of cleverly veiled insults behind a thin veneer of politeness.
He's probably just reading too much into it. There's no guarantee that it means anything at all, and he feels like he's being unnecessarily harsh in his thoughts, when this was supposed to be about peace.]
Is that so? [He runs a hand through his hair, frowning slightly.]
I'll see that you and the others have fresher food too choose from-- well, the chips, at least, and extra guacamole. [That's not all the help he's going to offer others, not by a long shot, but even something like this might be important. A tiny step in fostering better feelings, however ridiculous it might seem.
He smiles, both at how silly he knows he sounds, and because he's hopeful that he might be able to cheer somebody up.] How does that sound, for a start?
