Torren. Aurum hadn't really seen the other since he and Kiira had properly "returned," but that wasn't really much of a surprise. Much as the luminary liked the little prince, he also knew that the other had always been a bit of a recluse. He liked being around Kiira, and that was... pretty much it. So, the tiger had never taken it personally when Torren disappeared for a while, especially if it was obvious Kiira wasn't doing well. Nevertheless, this was why the luminary wore a slightly startled expression as he walked into the tavern that day, surprised to see Torren of all people in the structure usually saved for social events.
Just the mere sound of the word cookie was enough to make the angel's stomach growl, although that wasn't really his fault. His stomach was growing larger as his and Siborno's cubs grew, and there was no doubt in his mind that the little ones were starved for nutrients, even with all he had been eating for them. Not that sugar cookies would really provide many nutrients, but... well, the cubs wanted what they wanted. So, Aurum was quick to make his way over to Atbash's side, the golden tiger pulling one of the cookies to him before taking a large bite of it. Once he was done chewing, he found himself muttering to Torren, gaze lit up, "That was really good... I'm glad it actually tasted good. N... Not that I thought they would taste bad, it's just... the cubs make it so some things don't taste as good as they used to. Especially sweet things." Pregnancy cravings were weird, and he really didn't appreciate the way they made him despise certain foods that he had once loved.
