That goofy personality, the cartoonish behaviour and happy-go-lucky demeanor from Seichi was hard to place. It was really charming however and managed to pull Toko out of his drowning thoughts if even just for a moment. Softly reaching his hand up, Toko placed it atop Seichi's as his companion was comforting him, a hand on Toko's shoulder much like he had done for Seichi before. "Thank you..." The smaller boy offered, a minimal smile gazing back at the squad member he soon felt like calling a friend. It was sweet to see that the care for the group didn't just stretch one way, it was actually a give and take. "Y-yeah...this sushi really is good." Toko continued, dropping his hand down to the table as Seichi retracted his comforting touch. 

Placing another sushi in his mouth, Toko tried to silence the worrying thoughts in his head with the pure taste of fish and rice. It was honestly quite astonishing how someone could manage something that simple yet make it so incredibly tasteful. Yes, simple is indeed sturdy and a sure shot. The more complicated something gets, the more components you need to consider. "I appreciate your compassion, Seichi." Toko would continue, his eyes raising themselves from the plate and onto Seichi's blue orbs. They were quite enchanting in a way, a beautiful contrast to his black hair and catlike smile. Noticing how he had been staring, Toko quickly broke the lock he had on Seichi's eyes, feeling it rude to have been staring at him. "I look forward to participating in a mission with you. I believe we would do quite well together." He'd offer a faint nod. Seichi was so full life, it was someone who would truly bring moral to the group, a great leader given the chance. 

Eating another few pieces of sushi, Toko looked out across the table and saw how the others were mostly eating in silence. It would appear that he was rather alone in the thought that this dinner could help them all get to know each other. Though, that was fine. Once training and actual missions began to roll in, their bonds would undoubtedly be strengthened. While a professional and disciplined stance was the way of the ninja, true friends to always trust was the way of success. No one could handle everything on their own, after all. This dinner would be over soon and after a night's sleep, their journey would truly begin.
