@arrachnes asked: " kukuku. daisuke. i heard that you enjoyed those confectionery treats. cookies, yes?" it would have been sweet! it would! if naraku didn't present the boy with a massive bag of (stolen) sweets of all flavors. and, of course, makes no mention of how he procured them. " eat. "
it wasn't all that odd for children to enjoy sweets , right ? even daisuke's own mother had occasionally lectured him over things like balancing out his nutrition and maintaining a proper diet --- and yet , macarons , cream-puffs , madeleines and more , these soft tea-time sweets imported from european coutries had readily made themselves at home about azumano's shops and cafes in a way that was hard to ever resist .
in his imagination , someone like naraku-san would probably have been privy to give him something like a small , bite-sized pack of konpeito or even more traditional senbei --- it's a surprise then that an entire shop's stock's worth of treats practically fall into his grasp . ' ... bwuh ? '
at first , the boy's eyes merely bulge at its over-indulgent size . had naraku robbed santa claus or stolen a tucked away hoard by the tooth fairy or something ? w-well , everything looked fine and perfectly untouched , so if naraku didn't feel like sharing and telling a story about its acquisition , then daisuke wouldn't ask ! ( any thief knew better ... ! )
besides , he really can't help the faint sense of salivation that strikes him too . i-in any case , children were supposed to obey adults , right ? so when naraku says to eat , he wouldn't have been doing anything wrong by eating ! ( ... at least just a little bit . ) maybe there was something really good in here , like those mini-cakes that were always sold out ...
although he's already curiously digging through the other's gift to him , in the end , daisuke seems to be struck by a certain epiphany . the realization leads him to smile and laugh a little up at the other all of the sudden . ' --- ah . naraku-san , thank you ... ! but this is , um , a little much ... ' a hand pulls out sweet red bean manjuu , kit-kats and matcha flavored chocolates .

' let's share ! last time , when i made those cookies for you , you really liked them ... so i'm sure you'll like trying out some of these things with me , too ! ' if they went through the bag together , then they could also figure out what to get for each other later ... and as naraku was still someone who more or less mystified the red-headed niwa , daisuke would have appreciated deepening his apparent understanding of the other .
