Athos looks at Aramis with faint bemusement, not because he does not understand, but because taking the chocolate from his very lips seems silly, overly romantic - and utterly tempting. It is the sort of thing better suited to fresh-faced young lovers, and isn’t Athos beyond that?
Or is he merely still afraid of embracing love fully, in all it’s ridiculousness?
In the end, Athos rolls his eyes, but pushes himself up to meet Aramis’ lips and take the chocolate. “You are absurd,” he says as the sweet melts on his tongue, his voice soft in a way that implies he doesn’t actually mind.
