"Perhaps... but I think I'd very much enjoy the challenge sometime, if you'd be amenable to us making an attempt." Her smile had only grown as Morgana seemed to enjoy the tidbit, and she did something that suggested that she'd slipped the paper into a pocket on her hip... except, there didn't look to actually be any pockets there.
"I suppose it's one dubious benefit to having been away from the world at large for a few centuries... everything seems rather new and exciting, despite everyone else assuring you that it's entirely mundane to them." Another gesture, simply turning her hands over to open them, and this time, she was holding a tray full of desserts, some of which looked suspiciously similar to what had been available earlier in the day, in the cafeteria. Slices of fruit-filled pie and cake, cookie-sized cheesecakes with some sort of gray syrup baked onto their top and a black shape poking up from where it was mostly buried within it, more chocolates next to fresh fruit mostly covered in a glossy brown layer of it... and a wine glass, half full with something black that swirled with an odd indigo-silver sort of glow. She held it out to Morgana as well.
"Some of these simply come from places in my own world that I'd never visited myself, but now, there are ways to transport such delicacies over great distances, and in tremendous quantities...." She pointed to a fruit tart, one with bits of what had to be pineapple and kiwi slices, "Like these. But most of this is from my own people... and I understand that most of the humans in my own world are unfamiliar with them, even now... so I don't imagine that many people here would yet know much of it."
