α α Another strays from his home and into mine. A guest, perhaps? One mine Palace can accommodate? Or an adversary? One mine halberd itches to exchange with? Either is welcome. It is, after all, shameful to be anything but hospitable. α α
α α β Correct. And the meat from east of Adrestia. I just hope the Emperor won't notice a pig or three missing from their stables. β She says in jest. It is good to make merry of what they have in spite of the dwindling supplies and the handful of allies able to support their cause. α α
Ingrid pauses with one bite left, tilting her head as she thinks for a moment. What flavours were rare ingredients in that dish? Normally, it would be impossible to tell. But Ingridβs good with more than just eating food endlessly. βThe seasoning is from Dagda, no?β
α α A sense of relief washes through Gwyneira ( and the chef ) at the sight of the house member scarf down the food in record time. As Ingrid always have. It is only then she joins her in seat and reveals her hand in the situation. β I am glad, then. The ingredients were not easy to obtain. β α α
A soft chuckle. Well, Gwyneira doesnβt need to tell her twiceβwith the grace of a knight and a lady, Ingrid takes a biteβ¦-and then the grace goes out the window. She can be a bitβ¦-feral when it comes to good food, after all. βItβs delicious.β
α α β All the more reason for you to spare a bite. β She then adds in a low whisper, β And the head chef cannot take it anymore, it seems... β α α

α α Have you no desire to devour, Galatea? The dish surely won't eat itself. α α
Staring at food with the look of someone in love.
α α The journey has kept me away but I am here now. How do you fellows fare? Far better than I, I would hope. α α

α α β Indeed, you have .. β Only then she's made aware of the ornament hanging from above. β You would not be opposed to snagging my own, would you? β α α
A quiet little snicker escapes closed lips, smiling oh so mischievously. "Hmhm, seems I caught you off guard. It seems as though my reward is doubled."
α α His being eons better than the meaningless pile she received from her dreaded husband, she happily takes the sole, carefully wrapped, token. β Thank you, β her happiness barely contained, she drops the habit of last name basis, β Felix. β α α
"Oh, you're here. Well- no point in running around looking for you later. Here. Take this." There he was, fulfilling his assignment given to him for this moonβhanding out gifts. Now, it was ππΌππΏ turn to receive a gift from him. "Enjoy... and ππ’π±π±πΊ ππ°ππͺπ₯π’πΊπ΄."
ooc. due to increased festivities, spotty replies will be more. spotty TT happy holidays to all of you !! i'll get to replying when i catch breaks ദΰ΅ΰ΄¦ΰ΄Ώ ΛΝΜκ³ΛΝΜ )β§
α α Though no stranger to receiving affection, his is far blatant than those from the village kids. His mark lingers and in her astonishment, the pads of her fingers reach to brush it over. β I do notβwhatββ β α α
@ofthealys.bsky.social "Come now..." He leans down, taking a swift peck to her cheek with a tender look and an earnest smile. "...This much is the least I could owe you."
α α She is yet to recover from inhaling that intoxicating dust and again she falls prey to one of ( many ) Annette's mishaps. α α
