Kaveh & Alhaitham
Invite you to share our joy
June 18th
Latrommi (Ignore the fact that it says Eltrut shhh)]

This is Alhaitham.

Kaveh and I are hosting a celebration as detailed above. RSVP with him if you wish to attend so that we can make the necessary arrangements. You may also do the same with me, but note that I have changed my shellphone ID to the one you currently see.

[...and yeah he's just gonna end it there. Eloquent as always, huh?]

Comments

[netherese]

[She certainly does, and Gale is certain Alhaitham will be hearing about it from her in the future.]

Very kind of you! Fortunately, she's quite easy to shop for. She loves any kind of poultry or fish.

[indispensable]

[Since she can talk(?) she can come right to his face and tell it to him.]

Does it need to be cooked?

[Hey, gotta make sure here.]

[netherese]

[Maybe she will.]

Not in the least, though she'll eat it either way. She's been making sport of pigeons and gulls alike lately, so that should tell you something about her palate.

[It isn't terribly refined, it would seem.]

[indispensable]

[It certainly does, which does make things both simpler and a little bit more complicated... hm.]

We'll keep it in mind.

Are there any dietary restrictions we should be aware of with you?

[Might as well ask since they're already on the topic of food.]

[netherese]

That all depends on who you ask.

[While he doesn't have any, the question certainly brings up all sorts of memories of companions making jabs about his appetite for shoes and jewelry, or his special dietary needs.

They really thought they were quite hilarious, the lot of them, didn't they?]

Ah, nevermind that— in all seriousness, no. I'm quite open-minded regarding all things culinary, as well; one of the best things about travel is the opportunity to sample dishes from other cultures. I'm certain whatever is served will be splendid.

[indispensable]

[...well that was a weird response, but okay.]

Hope you enjoy spice, then. Sumeru cuisine is rife with it.

[Of course, given where they are all the dishes will be a close approximation at best, and there will also be other options available (partly because Kaveh is horrible with spice in the first place). But since Gale wants to know the full deal, Alhaitham sees no reason to hold back either.]
