[Ryou's ear rotates towards the sound of the tail wagging, which is by and large pretty quiet, since Atem's tail is so thin and wiry compared to Ryou's obnoxious, fluffy monster.
He busies himself with cutting thin strips off of the meat, which has already been skinned, and it's going pretty well, he's setting the slices neatly on the paper so that he can transfer them to a plate when he's done, and he's at around six pieces when he hears the whine.
...Ryou is the one who's really sorry, because he has to suppress a bit of a laugh, he's sorry he doesn't mean to laugh at Atem, just...oh god it's so cute?!]
I-it's okay, don't worry!
[Six pieces it is then! Ryou picks out a plate, places the sliced people sashimi on it...then after a thought, decides to sprinkle a small amount of salt over top. He's not a professional, he's just doing his best here.
Within a few minutes, he's headed over to the coffin table with the plate, a tiny saucer of soy sauce, and a pair of chopsticks. He sits on the ground, of course, because he's a hulking creature and Atem deserves the whole couch thanks. He's...been through enough.
But Ryou's still in a good position to feed Atem. And he will, thanks. It's his job to offer nourishment to his

and deserves to be taken care of. So, he picks up a piece of meat gingerly between the chopsticks, dips it in the soy sauce and pauses.]
