[Slightly offscreen, Nathan barks a laugh. Yeah, okay! He was just waning you that he wasn't gonna be gross, okay? Look, he's getting better at this! Maybe the cold and isolation is helping him turn over a new leaf. Debatable.]
Get ready...for the best thing you've ever seen in your life...
A bakery! What about that shit? I've found two goddamn bakeries! 'Course, this one doesn't have much food. I just happened to find this tucked away all by its lonesome.
[He's really proud of himself. He'd love to show her his beaming proud face...but...he's just gonna let her enjoy her future treat. It's not often people find anything this delicious or colorful.]
[Nathan finally tilts the tablet back up to his face. And look at him. So cute, so charming, so positively grateful! He grins.]
I'm not being funny, love. If my teeth and eyes to cry from, they would out of sheer gratitude. I mean, how can I be expected to continue my selfless exploration when I don't have the means to keep this beautiful piece of art that is my face in tip-top condition? Don't underestimate the power of a toothbrush gift.

[And he opens the box. Revealing three pristine macarons.]
What's your fancy? Chocolate, pistachio, or...whatever flavor purple is? I couldn't tell you. It smells like flowers.

Nathan!
[For once, that sounds delighted rather than irritated.]
Where did you find those? They look amazing!

Thank you. That was really sweet. I've been holding onto an extra toothbrush for you but...
[That feels really lame in comparison to this.]
I'll try to find something better.

I don't think any of us can be in tip-top condition here.
[But good on you for trying, Nathan.]
