It wasn't actually that often that Wormwood ended up indulging in sweet treats. It wasn't for a lack of a sweet tooth – he actually had quite a bit of a sweet tooth, and always had since he was just a little cub – but just because he wasn't really that much of a baker. Since he couldn't make sugary goodies for himself, and felt bad about forcing others to make them for him, it often led to him not consuming as many baked treats as he would've liked. So, when he heard Indie's call for anyone who would want peanut butter or sugar cookies, he immediately felt his entire body perk up in interest, his wings lifting right after his head as he slowly got up to his paws. He waited for a few others to show up ahead of him so that he didn't look too eager before he ambled on over, his head tilted to one side and a little up so that he could take in the delicious scent of cookies. He could already feel his mouth watering in excitement at the prospect of chomping down something sweet and sugary, and he wiped his muzzle off with a paw before speaking to Indie, smiling, "A sugar cookie sounds pretty good to me right now, if I could have one." He noticed the way that she pulled her shawl around her shoulders, and the lion chuckled a bit before settling down beside Indie, draping a wing over her shoulders for warmth. To an outside eye, it might've seemed like a romantic gesture, but considering how their interactions had gone when she had first joined, it was more of a friendly and warm platonic gesture.

Truthfully, Wormwood had a habit of being incredibly nice and welcoming to pretty much anyone who was in the group, temporarily or not. It wasn't a bad habit really, unless somebody tried to take advantage of it, but it was something that he had a tendency to do. However, he had taken to be even nicer to Indie than usual, mainly because of their unusual but funny first encounter, and also because she just seemed to be a kind person herself. A bit flirtatious, but there wasn't anything outright wrong with that. He still didn't really know what task she was here to complete, since she was too worried to share with him or anybody else what her intentions were, but he was pretty confident that they weren't evil, or malicious in some way. Or perhaps he was just hoping that they weren't, in a sort of naive way. No matter what it was, he found himself enjoying Indie's company, and he returned her smile when she noticed his wing over her shoulders. When she nodded and said he could take as many cookies as he wanted, the lion grinned and leaned down, taking a couple of sugar cookies up in his fangs and chomping them down quickly, enjoying the explosion of sweet flavor within his mouth. Truthfully, he was so glad for the bakers around here who had decided they were going to make sweets often lately. As he ate, he gave a nod to Crowley before listening to Indie's words, his smile growing once he was done with his treats. He then let out a soft pleased chuff before speaking, his tail flicking lazily behind him, "Thank you very much, Indie. Those were delicious. And... I suppose I never really looked at baking that way before, but you're right. It's very kind of you to try and bring us all together with these cookies... plus I always love it when i get some good food from social events."
