[She wagers it has.]

And so long as you use your skill on only the Vorgons, it will make you no enemies either.

Hm...not everyone appreciates certain talents.

[the waiter passes by, a tray bearing two plates in hand; service was speedy]

[Une found herself staring at what appeared to be a green crystal geode, split open and about the size of her fist; only upon closer scrutiny would one see that it was some sort of fondant coating colored sugar crystals]

[dessert for dinner? well, it wasn't horrible]

[Irene is served an elegant glass of clear liquid and a shallow bowl of long, slender milky-white crystals. Poking one with her fork, she is surprised to find that the outside is a crispy shell of some sort and the inside soft like fish.]

Fascinating. It is quite good.
I take it that yours tastes better than the rock it appears to be?

[she sticks her fork in it (special utensils had been requested from the ship for Thorian tourists) with relative ease]

Perhaps they are pandering to the theme. Perhaps this is simply the way the food is on this planet.

[Setting down her fork she takes up the glass and has a small sip. Although clear and colourless, the flavour was complex. She could not quite describe the taste, but it brought to mind the sensation of rain and lightning with a slight hint of grass and something floral, fresher and more tasteful than the best water she'd ever had.

Her eyes wide in surprised pleasure, she offers the glass to Une.]

Try a sip of this. It is wonderful - I shall have to take a few bottles back with me.
