[D wants to ask when he found the time to buy a bunch of candles, out of habit, because Leon in a candle shop is just such an amusing mental image... He wonders instead how many cupcake candles he'll find in a pile on the bed later. Several, he's sure.]

Quite long, but I have everything I need. [That vague, unimportant stuff. He didn't enjoy the errand and he thinks he might enjoy this, if he doesn't spend the next few weeks finding rose bits under furniture. He purses his lips, trying very hard not to glance too obviously at the spreading puddle of petals.]

That aside, you could make a case for it. [Spoil him. He backtracks to his bags, giving them a purposely meaningful gesture.] I'm sure I could find something to do in the kitchen.

[Leon is making an effort and that is sweet, though bumbling. And since D is physically incapable of saying no to being spoiled by sweet things, well, here he is.]
