[Of course she watches him. Those tails are eye-catching—and something, something, keeping a close eye on one's target is key, because who knows what tricks they have up their sleeve. Case in point: look at the way the girl continues to watch him as he picks up his ice cream heads back to his table. Interesting.]
Aha, [she says, simply, as she reaches for the second spoon.] That sounds... serious. But here you are, anyway!
[And here this is, aka the ice cream she's poking, but give her a second. She must play this straight-faced game.]
You must really like sweets—or you're trying to make me laugh. Which is it?
It does sound super serious... I'm not much of a serious person though.
[ Which is not entirely true. Gintoki doesn't give himself enough credit. He's a Shounen JUMP protagonist; he says the morally right and encouraging things at the best time.
While Hilda is taking her time, Gintoki is digging in. It's not so much messy looking as it is just.. very childish looking. Just look at that happiness though! His tails are wagging again. ]
[Is there such a thing as a mature-looking sundae? Sweets are always better when they're, you know. Like this, so Hilda watches him for a moment—his tails are so cute, she's going to die—before finally scooping up a spoonful for herself.]
Both, hmm? [A quick laugh.] I like that about you. Life is so much better when you're having fun.
["Fuck expectations." - Hilda, 2020. But give her a second to try this combination? And watch her eyes light up when she decides that it's tasty. Time to come back in for another spoonful, aw yeah.]
And you have very good taste in ice cream. No wonder you're so excited!
[She gestures toward his tails, which she's going to pet before this date is through. New goal acquired.]
[ Thanks, Hilda. He's like this cause of the main character trauma. When she gestures to his tails, his eyebrows raise and he stops them instantly. He hangs his spoon lazily in his mouth as he speaks. ]
Aaa? I don't know what you mean.
[ He sticks the spoon in the bowl again and steals another bite. ]
A beautiful life is more important than a beautiful death, so.. I intend to live it that way for myself. Having fun is essential to that.

A little bit of both.
