Sanji had been in the club early to begin preparations for the five-course meal he planned, and it was ready to begin within minutes of Aphrodite's arrival. Her teleporting in caused enough of a stir among the servers that he knew she had come, and made sure the hostess showed the goddess to her table and offered her the wine he had personally selected to accompany the meal.

First course, appetizer. Lime-seared shrimp on bite-sized rice crackers. He waltzed his way out, pleased to serve the Goddess of Love with his own hand, whether or not he got the antidote at the end of the night.

Aphrodite was relaxing at the chair, ready to be treated like a queen. The wine was helping. The only good thing to being in a mortal body, was the food. Ambrosia was good, but it's got nothing on the variety the mortals have come up with.

She watched amused as Sanji approached her table. She liked him. He was always dancing. Very amusing.

With a flourish, Sanji delivered the appetizer tray to the table and placed it before his guest. "Good evening, my lady. I'm honored to have your presence here, and I hope that the dinner I've devised for you meets your expectations and more." He stood back, hands clasped behind his back, looking as much like a waiter as the owner of the club in his double-breasted suit coat. "How is the wine, is it to your liking?"

"Ish aasom" Aphrodite said already eating one of the appetizers. Eating etiquette was still a bit foreign to her. She swallowed before she continued though.

"Very swanky," She said looking around for his benefit. "You sure know how to treat a Goddess"

Lily didn't know what sort of offering was appropriate, so she had baked a fresh batch of peanut butter chocolate chip cookies, and wrapped them up in a bundle of pink cellophane with a white ribbon tying everything in place. She had reluctantly peeled herself away from the wedding catalogues in order to do this. The small nagging logic, plus the advice she had received on her communicator indicated that she was far too young to get married. Nor, she realized, did she know James Rogers nearly well enough to know for sure that she wanted to marry him. No matter how many times she kept drawing her name and his in little hearts.

"Hello," greeted the thirteen year old girl. She had come dressed up a little, and curtseyed. That's what you were supposed to do for important people, right?

"I baked some cookies and I thought you might like them..."

Aphrodite looked at the girl as she came up to her table. The curtsy could have been better, but it was still cute. She was a little surprised by the straight forward offer. The girl was cute, and too young to fall into the category of 'threat for most beautiful in the room.'

"Hey cutie," she said. "What's the occasion?"

"Well, your holiday is supposed to celebrate love, right Miss Aphrodite?" Lily began. She didn't really know the proper behaviour when addressing a goddess, aside from understanding that it was important to be polite. Nico was a demi-god and she carried on ordinary conversations with him all the time.

"I think making presents for people is a nice way to show that, and so I made you cookies."

She smiled brightly and placed the cookies on the table.

"I hope you enjoy them."
