[Momo is very much the type to struggle with accepting concern, so her refusal to look up at him is something he assumes might be similar at first glance. Still, he's not going to take that as a reason to stop expressing it.
Nor does he quite let her brush it off completely with that call back to work, though he does offer a smile that might have just a touch of knowing to it.]

[Is that ridiculously broad? Yes. Is it still true? Also yes. Momo is far from a picky eater.]
