"The food looks delicious sir," Don said, his hunger showing as he looked at the appetizers, but it felt rude to him to not congratulate Xavier's dad.

"Wow Xavier your house is huge, and this food is amazing," Ken complimented, eating some of the food. 'Id love to live here."

"Thank you Donald." Xavier's father was grinning. "I know you're starving so eat up."

"Eh I guess. It's not that big." Xavier shrugged. He didn't like to talk about it.

"Sembra delizioso," Kei spoke in Italian, turning to Xavier's father with a small smile.

"Grazie." Xaviers father replied. He spoke the language.

"Jayed," she then spoke in Arabic, turning towards the food. "Can't wait."

"What languages do you speak of sir?" Ken asked curiously.

"Italian, French and English. Now eat up all of you, I didn't make this spread for you all to stare at!" This was clearly said playfully.

Rose was certainly surprised to hear the words that Xavier's father had spoken to her. She knew all too well that his mother hated her, so to hear the encouraging and supportive words from his father meant a lot.

"Thank you," she spoke softly before looking to Xavier and then the food. Kari couldn't seem to fully shake the visions, if they were visions, that had occurred at the mall. She felt at an odd peace when it happened and the disgusting, vile part of her wanted to see that again. It gave a sense of everything just washing away, as if she had found a release of sorts.

"You don't know more?" Kei asked him after eating some of her own portion, seeming a little surprised. "But...You're like, twenty years older than me, at least. Probably a lot more. I could've learned like, fifty languages in that timespan.."

"This spread is... amazing," Wren said, looking over it all.

Xavier's father chuckled at Kei's remarks. "I'm not a demigod. And by twenty years... you mean closer to four thousand." He said with a smile. "Being a polyglot isn't in my power suite sadly."

"Plus learning tongues gives him a headache." Astra pointed out helpfully, an adoring smile on her face as she looked at her husband. For those who knew her, this look of pure love and affection was... odd.

"If it looks good, then eat up." Xavier muttered in Wren's ear. "As formal and fancy as the house looks, we're really casual here. Dinner will be out eventually but for now it's open season on the appetizers." Xavier said before popping a shrimp into his mouth.

"As my wife said. I haven't tried to learn a new language in..."

"Four hundred years." Astra finished his sentence idly as she placed a couple bacon wrapped scallops on a napkin for herself.

"Thanks dear."

"Still," Lorenzo started, eating some of the food Xavier's father had served. "Your food is really delicious, you have my praise."

Don had started eating, looking at everyone else for a moment as he ate some of the appetizers.

"So I can eat my fill?" Ken asked Xavier.

Xavier nodded at Ken's question. "Yes, eat as much as you want." He was almost exasperated at how many people were asking him that question. Then he realized they weren't accustomed to such over the top spreads. This made him far more cordial about the whole thing. He should have prepared them better.

"Thank you Lorenzo." Xavier's dad said with a smile. "I'm glad you all are enjoying it."

Rose and Kari had almost always been poor, for as long as they were alive. Eating from a place with such class and higher social status seemed inappropriate to them. In the eyes of the others, they felt as if they were mere peasants. In order to prevent any conflict however, the two grabbed small amounts of food and placed it on a napkin.

Xavier went over to Rose and Kari and smiled at the pair of vampire sisters. "I know this is a lot to take in..." He muttered so only they could hear. "So if you feel uncomfortable with the spectacle of it all, I completely understand."

"We've always been poor so it doesn't feel right for us to be here," Rose confessed honestly, "We're like mere peasants compared to everyone else here."

Xavier sighed, this response wasn't exactly out of the realm of possibility given some of the things he knew about Rose and Kari's past life before they had met. "I know it's something to get used to... but you're family. All of you in the house are family now... so it's one of those things." He smiled a bit. "My family has more money than we could spend in an eternity, so it's only right we share it with those we care about."

"It's just going to take getting used to is all," Rose replied honestly with a smile.

Concordia took a sip of some tea that had been made. She could hear Xavier's words easily, and smiled a bit. "Quite a hospitable young man, isn't he?" She said lowly toward Xavier's father.

Wren had been trying out the platter, shuddering a bit from the flavor. "Oh my god..." She was an excellent cook, yes, but this? This was beyond great.

Astra smiled at Wren. "You know, from what I understand, you're a good cook yourself. I'm sure that he'd teach a thing or two."

Xaviers father nodded at Concordia's words. "Hes a good lad most of the time. A bit of a... Well let's just say he's got a bit of wanderlust. Wanderlust and wandering eyes. Drives his mother nuts." He said in a conspiratorial whisper, an amused smile on his face. "But I'm sure you already knew that."
