She picks up a cookie and takes a sullen bite out of it, not out of any ingratitude but because taking out her upset on a cookie is easier than talking about it.
"Thank you."
It's belated, mumbled while chewing. Her usual enthusiasm for food is dampened a little, but only a little. Fruit is still such a novelty, even dried fruit which wasn't terribly hard to come by back home. More importantly, it gives her something to think about that isn't Luke being gone or Luke being dead back home or Vader's grief somehow feeling oppressive in the Force even though she's not directly connected to him. She's not sure if she's picking it up via Kylo or if it's just that Vader is that much of a presence.
And she realizes, then, that she hasn't asked Kylo how he's dealing. With any of it.
"Are you all right? I know you didn't want him here, but the rest of us being upset can't be easy for you."
