[Leonard smiles when he tries it and appreciates the effort to compliment him even if it was just that. An effort at politeness. Finally he grinned at the question about ice cream and pushes to his feet.]

The way I see it, the only way to find out is to try it. [Snatching the carton from the freezer, he grabbed a spoon before coming back to the table.] And if you don't like it, then you can just not eat it. Never know till you try it, right?

[Easily getting a small scoop out of the container, he puts it on the plate away from the pie just in case Loki decides he doesn't like it.] Just get some on the fork then get some pie. That way you can give it a shot. Hell, you might even decide you like the ice cream better than the pie.
