The Xiao Ki's are there to remind people there's a cost we shouldn't be dismissive about" Or something like that, because peace as an ideal was always the goal, but handling it as a pleading process was complicated. "Anyway, thanks for bringing all this." The food, and the drink, such as it is, and the point of them both sitting at the table before conversation meandered as it did.

One more frustration in a series of them. He admitted to himself he didn't particular want to be one of the ones who remained. He's not fond of being there when others have left... but no one's from his specific world or one akin to it as it stands.
He can't really lose what was never there, and so he takes a bite of whatever's cooled down, not tasting a thing, and swallowed and nodded his head to Taiki in thanks.
