Ah, he can see what Lorenz is doing, even as the two of them turn their attention to the food. Well, Dimitri can understand wanting to move on from a rather embarrassing or awkward event. Perhaps it is for the best that they just move on.

Besides... He wanted to help lift up Lorenz's spirits, and focusing on the food is a far better way to do that than linger on apologies. So Dimitri carefully adjusts his chopsticks, reaching over for the tempura that is there - mostly vegetables, which he is quite fond of. He's still debating on if he should bother dipping them into either salt or the sauce when Lorenz freezes, staring at the spoon.

Hearing him be so impressed and delighted at the simple shape of a spoon... Dimitri smiles a bit. "It is always fascinating, to see how different the route is for another culture to a similar goal, isn't it?" he says, deciding to abstain from any sauce for now. Best to leave it more to Lorenz, as someone who can properly appreciate it.

"I can imagine, in theory, how our own ancestors decided on our versions of spoons... and it is impressive to see how those in Johto changed things just enough.
