Once everyone's been herded into the tent, Ali settles into one of the low chairs. "Please, help yourselves, try whatever catches your interest. There's wine, and jallab. It's sort of a juice, it's made from dates and raisins and rosewater. Spider, would you be a dear and pour the wine for whoever wants it? And Victor, may I safely assume you'll be skipping the wine and having jallab with me?"
*Hook sits closest to Ali, tucking the sword behind him in a practiced manner, thinking he'll have to show it to Spider later. His appetite, as usual, is poor, but he looks over the food with interest as most of it is new to him*
She strokes a hand down his arm once he's sitting, leaning towards him to murmur quietly, "There's several more courses if none of this interests you, darling. I hope you'll like something today."
"Lovely." She pours herself a glass, then holds out the pitcher in offering to refill Victor's. "I didn't make it from scratch, I bought a bottle of syrup. I'm told it's a very good fruit and ice cream topping too, I think we'll have to try that soon. Next time, perhaps?"
The alu ki tikki looked interesting, so she slipped a little bit on to her plate. "It's been well. M' rommie is like, my exact opposite. But she's real nice."

When you are providing the evening, Ali, there will always be something to interest me.
