So glad you asked, sir! The plan was to have Dirgible Plum Soup, but then I realized, that plant wasn't exactly easy to come by in this world.
So I experimented with substitutes. That last one contains tomatoes, since I figured a fruit of some kind should do, and the other two contain plums and-- oh, right. The first has prunes. [ Smiling.

I wasn't expecting you, Severus.
[Her voice isn't unpleasant, though.]
Can I get you something to drink?

[He is pleased to have her off balance. Still hasn't lost his touch, he decides.]
I see the housing situation is working out well for you.

Well enough, yes. Wine, or something a little harder?
[Since he might run into someone from the Order.]
