You pick the wrong drink to order with dinner. Suddenly you're a cat and getting scratched at the base of your tail gets you going. Your suit acts up. Hundreds of ways for it to happen.
Natsume saying he'll be okay isn't some kind of false bravado. He looks relaxed as Mabu pulls him in, enough that Senku wonders for a moment if he should excuse himself. It's both his promise to stick with him and the idea that he should be there just in case something goes wrong that keep him there.]

[Thinking of things Natsume might need brings his attention back to the bag that's been hanging off his arm. Senku will just scoot in and place one of the bottles of lube in the outstretched hand of the closest statue.

From his vantage point, the statue is also taking more care with his flesh-and-blood lover than he would have expected. It allows him to be a little less on edge as he watches.]
