[The ability to laugh - it surprises him too. He doesn't feel like he should be capable, feels a little guilty for it, when he should be feeling guilty. But Eddie doesn't like to feel bad, and moving past it is preferable, even if it takes a bit of forced humour. Thankfully, Cisco lets him, teases him back, and then follows up with a comment that makes him feel better in such a genuine way.]

Yeah? I'd like that.

[And he would, he realizes. They don't live together here, but they spend so many nights together that it feels strange when Cisco isn't with him in bed. Cisco's things litter his apartment and he has things at Cisco's place too, their lives have intermingled in a comfortable way even while they do their own thing. It's nice, to think that it would carry on if they went back home, that the relationship wouldn't be demoted to something smaller.

When Cisco says he's all about dim sum, Eddie smiles a little and nods.]

Awesome. [A pause, and an exhalation.] There's a dim sum place here. I go there a lot, but it's really not the same as Mama Chow's. There's something about the cooking there that's just...well. It's home, I guess. I'm used to it. It's my favourite. I can't wait to take you there.
