“You do both in equal measure.” And Hiei, obviously, does not begrudge him for it too much or he would not be here at all. Somehow they have grown only closer since that chance meeting that almost ended Hiei’s life then and there, and the fire apparition has no regrets or will to turn back. Even if he had been more than annoyed about being forced to work with Yusuke at first - at the very least he knew he had one capable being along with him in Kurama.

He is eager as always to take his utensils, narrowly reminding himself not to dig in already before Kurama even begins. Thankfully he manages to behave, though narrowly, very eager to dig in all the same.

“Mn.. I’d never hear the end of it if I stained your sheets.” With curry, anyway. The fire demon fidgets again, before he finally simply asks -

“Are you going to dig in yet?”
