It was a family tradition to have duck on New Year's eve and she never complained. She loved the stuff.

Seeing IssyC a few feet down asking for some salt and pepper and figuring her duck would need some salt she called down, "Hey Issy when your done with the salt can you pass it down here." Being polite was on her mind. After all why be stingy and mean for such a fine meal. It wasn't like she was at some fast food restuarant or a hole in the wall place.
Would it be snide for Issy to tell Callie that she wasn't supposed to be calling down the table? Hmm... craning her neck, she attempted to see if there was any salt or pepper down where she was but decided that she ought to just pass hers down there. To Becca to whoever was beside her and beside her and beside her and beside her down to Callie. Which was a lot of passing and might seem rather annoying, she realized.

But a proper lady was not rude and Issy was doing her best to be a proper lady.

"Here Becca," she said, grabbing the two shakers and passing them over to the girl. "Pass these down to Callie."

This suddenly seemed like the "So and so like so and so pass it on!" secrets...

She twinkled her fingers right back at Issy and grinned, "I am enjoying myself, I admit it's much better than dueling, though I do miss that too." she chuckled as she sipped her water, her food growing cold.

She glanced down at her half eaten plate of food, the rce all but ogne and a few nibbles of duck taken. "I'm not fond of duck, it's too ... weird for me." she gestured at her plate with a slight frown. "My mother made me go to a few fancy dinners, where I spent most of my time with younger children. Getting apple sauce thrown in your hair is not fun." she explained shrugging slightly before nodding

"Wow, you've eaten duck before?" She asked, slightly in awe over anyone eating something so interesting as this. "The most interesting thing I've ever eaten was pheasent. Very tender I might add." she nodded before dabbing her mouth with her serveitte again.
Grinning, Issy bit down on her lower lip, happy that her friend was enjoying this class so much. It was disheartening to see so many students being uncooperative or talking back to the Headmistress - it wasn't her fault she had to teach this kind of class. And it wasn't really unnecessary... "Me too," she agreed, happily. "I love dressing up and playing Lady. Isn't it fun?" Maybe they'd get to learn stuff in the next lesson.

Her nod came with understanding - not everyone liked duck. For some, it was too fatty or the flaour was just too odd for them. "At least you tried it," she pointed it, glancing at some plates of food that had hardly been touched. "And the rice is fab." Another grin split her face as Ari asked about her eating duck.

"Phesant is really good, too. We've had all sorts of different foods. Daddy likes to have fancy meals when he comes home from long trips." The small girl's cheeks flushed lightly - she didn't usually talk about anything that gave away her family's financial status - her friends had been awed by her house.

Bowing her head, she finished the last of her duck, leaving a few bites of the rice. Was the pudding on its way?
