Hey, I promised, didn't I? And this kitchen's pretty well stocked.
[ might as well take advantage of it! ]
After you, Ms. Nala. I hope you enjoy.
[ when Nala uncovers her plate, she'll find a perfectly cooked steak, with a vibrant sauce drizzled over it. there's a side serving of roasted vegetables - potato, parsnip, carrot - but the clear star of the dish is the meat. ]
[ he's got his own plate of grub - not plated as nicely as Nala's, but still appealing to the eye. once they're both seated, he'll pick up his glass and extend it in her direction, a clear invitation for a toast. ]
Oh no, I adore parties. The glitter and the glamour. The dancing...I was just usually the one performing or ...[ She bites into her food, neat and tidy and that helps cover up her wistfulness]
And back then further, the toasts were all done by my sister or her adoring crowd.
It has been a long time now. Honestly, my memories of her have become fuzzy and faded but she was a marvellous dancer, far superior to any before her. She would take me out to balls, and spin with me, letting me lead occasionally. There was a ball every night. It was fun. Exciting while it had lasted.
[ Nala liked dancing but where Mata seduced people with her dances, Nala enraptured them with her voice]
[ look at her, happy, laughing - how could she not be? ]
Between the two of us, I bet you could school me in dancing and partying. I didn't go out much when I was younger, and I was too busy after I graduated from school.

[ his tone is light, teasing. he heard that "almost" in there. ]
For dinner - a roasted vegetables and a tender, medium-rare steak, paired with a red wine and marrow sauce.

You doing alright?

I am perfectly fine. Shouldn't you be worrying about yourself more?
[Huff puff pout]
looks at you several days later.........
[ he sets the bowl down - it's filled to the brim with a rich, creamy potato soup. ]
I don't think I'm doing too badly, all things considered.
Re: looks at you several days later.........
[Nala can't ignore food when it's in front of her. Yummy...]
But if you're fine, it means you talked to enough people?
