"Witches all have two names," it occurs to Ranata to say. "We mostly use the first, unless we're being formal or distinguishing between two with the same first name, and then it's both. Ranata Ekamma; Isabella Amariah. Like that. What's your full name?"
"Dinner sounds lovely!" she replies when she's thoroughly finished trying on silks.
"On the lands or off? On is mostly going to be vegetables and meat and it's never predictable quite what. Off, if you're willing to fly awhile, could be nearly anything."
Flying!
It serves... diner food! Burgers, grilled cheese, meatloaf, jalapeno poppers, tuna melts. Milkshakes, pie, cherry cheesecake, sundaes.
(The burger was from a random person's recommendation, the milkshake and cheesecake were chosen because Zeviana was curious about how milk could be shaken into food and how cheese can be integrated into cake.)
Renée gets chicken fingers and an order of the jalapenos and a slice of blueberry pie. Zeviana is welcome to taste all of it.
Zeviana approves of it all. No exceptions. Of her own food, the cheesecake she finds delightful, the burger is messy but interesting, and the milkshake absurdly sweet. Similar feelings towards the samples from Ranata - this is lovely.
"Yes," replies Zeviana around a mouth full of cheesecake, so it comes out more as 'Mpfss.'
She takes the time to swallow before replying, this time. "Yeah! But it probably won't work like that, I bet. If it does I will be very surprised."
"Yeah, probably. I don't even like everything and I've tried things Isabella wouldn't touch and Adarin looked repulsed by the very idea of."
"In Italy there's a kind of cheese that's processed with maggots, and they don't always take them out before eating."
"Right, well - maybe eventually, I guess? But like - give me a few years to get used to this plane and we'll see. My answer is probably still going to be a pass, though."
She giggles. "I do like diner food. It's delicious. And I can just show up whenever, show the clan tattoo, and bam, food?"
"At this particular restaurant until - next summer, I think, then the clan and the diner renegotiate."
"There's more restaurants, you may as well try them all, but that is certainly reasonable. The food on the lands is very much meat and vegetables, and I happen to like cheese."
