For the first time since Héctor's known him, he looks well and truly startled. While these traditions aren't unknown to him, they're not for him; it's not something he'd ever thought it was possible to apply to himself.

But the surprised expression softens into a smile, rueful and awkward. Sincere. He takes the shimmering, golden offering like he's holding something fragile, something he doesn't want to risk breaking.

"Am I supposed to eat this?" It's a genuine question. He's not quite sure how this goes.
