For a moment Gabriel doesn't understand Johnny's question, but what Mako says clarifies it for him. Johnny hadn't heard Mako thinking his name at all. It's reasonable he'd be confused. And a little bit funny.
He raises an eyebrow at Johnny over his mug of lukewarm tea, entirely missing whatever internal dialogue Mako is having. "Does adding one ingredient to canned soup count as making soup now?" He takes a moment in which he contemplates whatever ungodly thing his stomach is doing before he sighs and nods. Maybe he'll survive the soup. He can't stand Johnny sitting there frowning at him. "Okay." Instead of taking the bowl, which seems unwieldy, he switches the contents of the mug and bowl.
He looks down into the mug like it might contain something poisonous and mumbles out, "Bu' only because you're cute an' I love you."
He takes a little sip of the soup. Even with the pepper it still tastes a little bland to his tongue, but it doesn't immediately kill him, so maybe it's alright. And maybe they'll stop pestering him about the fucking soup now that he's had some.
