Info about the beer:
Grain Bill for 2 Gallons (yes its a small batch)

First question:
So I am using Wyeast Pilsner and I started the d-rest at 65F @ 1.017 for 3 days, it moved down to 1.016, which seems really slow to me....Arrested fermentation? Unfermentable sugars? I doubt it because I did a double decoction mash for 2.5 hours. What do you think is going on?
Second question:
Took a sample taste of the beer. Tastes good, however, the texture of the beer seems really smooth...almost thick. Doesnt really taste like butter or popcorn. Is this diacytel?
Any help on either question would be great!
