Willow looked slightly thwarted. "How about on other people? Do you think they're nice for other people to wear?"

"Depends on the situation, I suppose?" Peter said, not less confused. "I mean, for a party or a ball? Maybe not so much for a sword lesson?"

"So for a party they would be okay?" Willow asked, wanting to be sure she had that clear.

"Then it would depend on the party," Peter, who'd had far too much experience making sure he was wearing the right clothes for an occasion. You'd think that type of thing could be left to the servants, but... "Why do you ask? If you're asking for yourself, I think you always look appropriate so I'd go with what you think."

"I have my reasons," Willow said, being squintily mysterious. "What about food? Of all the things we've eaten together so far, what's your favorite?"

Re: First Half!

[identity profile] once-a-king.livejournal.com 2006-06-21 12:03 am (UTC)(link)
Peter squinted back at her. "The duck flies at midnight."

She giggled. "The owl hoots alone. Which is very sad for him, really."

"Maybe he's hunting?" Peter suggested. "You're being all spy-y."

"I'm being mysterious," Willow said, reaching over to tickle him just a little. "Now what's your favorite food? Don't make me get out the lamp and the attack dogs."

Re: First Half!

Peter squirmed away from the tickling and tried to pin her hand. "I don't know? I'm a boy. I eat anything. I've liked everything we've eaten."

Willow's hand? Pinned. She gave him pouty face. Mostly for the information though. She could cope with being pinned. "Not one thing stands out as a food of awesomeness and joy forever?"

Peter took her pinned hand into his and began playing with her fingers. "Not particularly?" he said uncertainly.

Re: First Half!

It was hard to maintain pouty face when the finger-playing was making her smile.

She remembered Jamie's advice from that morning. "Okay, was there anything that you weren't as fond of? Something that ranked 9 on the scale of 10?"

Peter continued to play with her hand, but his expression had gotten more uncertain. "Turkey sandwiches?" he offered, rather hoping to please her with that.

His efforts worked. Her face lit up with a smile. "Yay! Excellent. Thank you."

Re: First Half!

[identity profile] once-a-king.livejournal.com 2006-06-21 12:38 am (UTC)(link)
He sighed in relief and smiled back at her. Then his smile widened into a grin. "Do you like cherries?" he asked.

Re: First Half!

"As a color, fruit, or popsicle flavor?" Willow asked for clarification purposes.

Re: First Half!

[identity profile] once-a-king.livejournal.com 2006-06-21 12:41 am (UTC)(link)
"The fruit," Peter said. "Colour too, I suppose. Definitely not cough syrup."

Re: First Half!

[identity profile] willbedone.livejournal.com 2006-06-21 12:42 am (UTC)(link)
"Then I am all for it," Willow said. "Oh! And also as a flavor of gum. But, as you say, no to the cough syrup. There my preferences are grape."

Re: First Half!

[identity profile] once-a-king.livejournal.com 2006-06-21 12:44 am (UTC)(link)
"Strawberries? Blueberries? Raspberries?" he posed as follow-up questions. "Again, the fruits."

"Yes, yes, they would not be my first choice outside of Slushy form but I can still enjoy them in the right environment," Willow said. "Oh! In that order, I mean."

Re: First Half!

[identity profile] once-a-king.livejournal.com 2006-06-21 12:49 am (UTC)(link)
"What would be your first choice outside of Slushy form then," Peter asked, completely disregarding the fact he didn't know what Slushies were.

Re: First Half!

[identity profile] willbedone.livejournal.com 2006-06-21 12:50 am (UTC)(link)
"Of all of those?" Willow asked. "Hmm. If we are speaking in general then I would have to say that I probably enjoy strawberries in more situations than their other berry companions."

Re: First Half!

[identity profile] once-a-king.livejournal.com 2006-06-21 01:00 am (UTC)(link)
Peter nodded. "Berry Companions. D'you think they sit at the Berry Round Table?"

Re: First Half!

"Possibly, though the chairs would need solid arms to make sure they don't roll off and squish to the floor," Willow said. She grinned at him. "Why the sudden interest in my berry preferences?"
