The crunching sounds are honestly more disgusting that he'd like to admit, and Goro feels lucky that he now has thousands of straws and spoons for feet.
It's what Joker says next that actually stuns him into silence, where even the subtle movement of his 'cape' stops briefly.
When was the last time someone had thanked him and actually meant it? Or more than that, when had it been the last time that Akechi had actually accepted something was an actual genuine thank you and not something said out of politeness or due to Japanese mannerisms? Maybe Sae, but he had mostly seen it as them working together. Even Shido, whose Shadow had spoken so mockingly at all he needed was a little bit of praise had never said it so simply. More like "Good work," which was still a compliment in some way, but, again, only to trick him.
You didn't thank someone for human meat unless you meant it, especially after being insulted. Akira, being like Ren, didn't have a reason to trick him either. Hell, he'd even told 'his' Akechi that he was going to take Maruki's offer instead of hiding it from him. Those idiots...
It's so stupid, because it's nothing but a single word. Not even a "you" added to the end. A few flowers bloom on his back as he rolls his eyes even if Joker can't see him.
"Whatever."
His back still turned as he shrugs.
"With others running rampant tonight, it might be best to find a safer place now that we've fed. We're clearly strong, but I'm not stupid enough to think we can take on the strongest of them."
