Ha. Angel would kill me if I did something like that, the dear holds grudges.

[Not to mention Luce is actually trying to make good connections, but that's for another time. Setting her feet to the ground, she smiles sheepishly to Krieg.]

Would you mind helping me get back?

[pecsonpecs]

Yeah, well, I do.

[He stands up and holds out his hands for Luce for her to pull herself up.]

It'd be my pleasure.

[giglio_madonna]

Thank you so much.

[Grateful, she gets up to her feet with his help and makes sure she's not going to swoon again before she gets on the move.]

I'll have to make it up to you some time. Do you have any sort of favorite food?

[pecsonpecs]

[He sticks close, one massive hand on her opposite shoulder, to stay as a support in case she so much as wobbles.

Krieg scoffs.]

Meat.

[A generic and yet oddly specific answer at the same time...]

[giglio_madonna]

[Well, at least it leaves a lot of room for creativity.]

Oh? Any kind?

[pecsonpecs]

The kind that bleeds.

[So all of them.]

[giglio_madonna]

Ah. So I'll have to invite you over for a Thanksgiving turkey then, hm?

[She's teasing just a little bit as they enter the elevator, even if she's honest. Krieg might not fit the FoB aesthetic, but he can certainly have dinner with them.]

[pecsonpecs]

You'd better get two if that's what you're planning. Just to be on the safe side.

[No, he doesn't, but he makes a respectable house guest for just about anyone.]

You're already planning for Thanksgiving dinner? It's only the beginning of the month.

[giglio_madonna]

Well, I've never gotten a chance to try and celebrate it with a lot of people before. [Luce presses her fingertips together.] I'm not from Americana, after all, and I was living on my own before signing on with Virgo.

I'd like to give it a try.

[pecsonpecs]

Wait--really? Where are you from, then?

[giglio_madonna]

Europa. The Italian regions, as a matter of fact.

europan? european?? how awkward...goes with italian instead

[pecsonpecs]

Huh.

Intending to bring an Italian touch to Americana Thanksgiving?

shakes fist at fictional country mashups

[giglio_madonna]

Well, I don't see why not! Besides, there are some dishes from my hometown that I think could fit quite well here.

I'll make sure there's plenty of meat regardless, of course.

Re: shakes fist at fictional country mashups

[pecsonpecs]

Good. 'Cause there won't be any left when I'm done.

[giglio_madonna]

You'll have to compete with Pao-Lin. Sometimes I think if I didn't keep an eye on him, Ivan wouldn't get anything at breakfast.
