Akito has mostly gotten used to not being in Adstringéndum at this point, but it's still hard to adjust to being able to ask for whatever he wants and receive it (within reason). So he relies on what he had on him at the time of his arrival for as long as he can manage, even as Shark takes everything in stride. Akito knows that his cat is being given treats by other passengers; making more friends and being more social than Akito himself. So far there have been no ill effects apart from possibly a bit of gained weight, so he can't bring himself to fret over Shark too much anymore.

It should be no surprise that it's Shark who finds Toothiana first, keen to bum as many scratches from the people in the bar as possible before Akito collects him. Of course, once he spots his bird-lady friend, Shark is quick to change goals from begging for attention to prowling over in order to cover her with his scent.

Miaow, says Shark in greeting, pleased that more of his Humans are showing up. Even if they don't seem to remember him.

While Akito does turn up very shortly after Shark runs up to Toothiana, he is more hesitant in his approach. He's already played this game twice now, and doesn't know if he can take being forgotten by someone important for a third time.
