"Willing to sample everything new? That sounds quite brave. I'm not even sure if I'd sample everything." Zelly grinned, pleased to discover another sign that perhaps her new boring boy wasn't as boring as he claimed. She considered her own favorite dishes, mostly sweet baked goods and meals made of fish fresh from the sea, covered in spices and citrus. She could probably make one of those for A'tay to try.
But then she remembered the visitor her father had from some far off northern hold who had tried one of her favorite spicy dishes and nearly choked to death as he coughed and sputtered. "Do you like spicy food? I may have burnt a few sensitive tongues in the past. Some people have no tolerance for peppers."
Zelly looked up to study the blue fire lizard with a bit of curiosity. "Can he eat spicy things? I've never known anyone really who had a fire lizard." She frowned as she reconsidered. "Actually one of the other candidates I've met has a couple, they're nosy little things that get into everything. I usually ignore them though and they're usually busy poking around other peoples' belongings to bother me."
She gave Shadow a small wave and a smile. "I get the feeling yours probably takes after you and is a bit better behaved. Will he be joining us at the Gather too?" She bit her lip as she resisted the urge to offer to teach the fire lizard to swim too.
