☀️ Arselia and Akonia

- How immature... But don't pay attention to him, he promised... well, he promised to avoid causing a scene, - she whispers to him. - Let him grumble, let the old man enjoy his little pleasures. Maybe he'll eat and relax a bit.

The Lord also replied in a whisper.
- Whatever his Eminence finds amusing, as long as it doesn't interfere with his self-imposed exile. Well, I think he's still a reasonable man and won't go too far, but even if he does, I've already anticipated that.

- Oh, you little ones. Calm down, calm down, there's plenty of food, you'll all get some, - she puts a larger portion of fish and vegetables on each plate. - Here, you should take an example from Lord-oji... uh... -Onisana, see how he sits with dignity? That's how a future man should behave. Radgrid, how are you doing? You're doing great, as always, a true older sister. What would you like to have? We have Miyuka, Kayanka, Inorka - anything your heart desires.

- I don't want vegetables!! - one shouts.
- I want Kayanka!! - the other shouts. - K. A. Y. A. N. K. A. !!
- I can put everything I need on my plate myself. - Radgrid declined Aiyano's gesture with a snort. - You'd better watch your own plate, or one day you won't be able to fit into your dress.

Ingrid and Lina arrive. The first has a basket of apples and cherries, the second has imported sweets brought from the empire.
- Aya... - Lina disappointedly lowered her gaze to the table. - Cupcakes and pastries probably won't fit here...
- They won't fit any table, - Tristan commented, - it's like poison.
- Ugh...
