One of the private lines rang at the consulate. Giovanna answered the phone.

"Genoshan Consulate. Giovanna Bennet speaking. How can I help you?"

Andrew settles in. "Angelo, you've outdone yourself."

He glances to his Aunt. "Not at all. With Angelo around, he sees to it we eat well."

Angelo seats Miss Charlotte, putting a napkin over her lap, then serves everyone. He preens slightly at Andrew's compliment. "It was an easy dish to make abundant portions of, and that.. 'burger' M-- Charlotte nearly choked on earlier was a crime."

"You're going to join us, right, Angelo..? You've gone to all this work..." She couldnt help it, she couldn't wait any longer as she sat down, leaning close to smell the food, her toes curling in anticipation.

"He'll join us once he's content we don't need anything else and he hasn't forgotten anything. He'll wait to make sure we don't need any options for dressing, there's sufficient pepper..."

Angelo rolls his eyes to himself as he sits down. The items Andrew mentioned were all part of preparing a meal, which did not simply finish when the food was done cooking.

"I believe I am familiar enough with your habits to say you would have announced your needs by now." He says, fighting off all but a hint of indignation. "Charlotte, if you would like anything, just let me know. I believe Gio will not mind if we start without her."

"I hope she gives Father my best..." he mutters quietly.

"Are you certain it wouldn't be rude to start without her?" Sengai went ahead and removed his sunglasses. If he was going to guard Charlotte, she'd have to get used to his in any event.

"I'm sure Angelo would prefer we started while the food is warm, and she'd prefer to not be worried about us while she tends to business."

Glowing eyes were nothing to get startled by, not when you were born and lived on Genosha for almost 20 years. She just couldn't help herself, it'd been 3 weeks since she'd had a *real* meal, let alone one that looked so fabulous. She did her best not to just face plant in the closest dish and start chewing, showing enough restraint to parcel out a healthy portion of everything on her plate and the second someone else picked up their silverware as well, she was digging in, giving a little squirm of delight at how flavorful and hearty it all was.

Angelo just about floats as he can see Miss Charlotte's approval.

"I'd just gotten the crabmeat, shrimp, and scallops yesterday, and the seasoning is a new blend I've been wanting to try. I was planning on gumbo at first, but I had a bag of short grain rice I wanted to finish off. There is plenty left for seconds, if you like."

"It's perfect" she said behind her hand that covered her mouth as she worker to chew her huge mouthful.

"You're really talented, Angelo. I can't make brownies from a box."

Giovanna comes out, the glow in her eyes finally diminished. "Father sends his regards," she says. "And fortunately will not be joining us." She smiles at Andrew. "You get away with things again."

"I have a way with that." He had been pretty sure his grandfather would respond well to a bold stand. And was glad he was right. Magneto may not agree with him, but he understands strength.

"By the end of the conversation, Father was quite calm," Gio assures her. "Which means Your Father couldn't have been too angry, or Father never could have calmed down. The official message is that he's glad you're all right and that he's going to hold Andrew fully responsible for your safety."

She snorted a little and shook her head, another mouthful of rice into her mouth to halt a response. But really, it was the best possible scenario out of several fairly disastrous possibilities.

"maybe later I can go for a walk? I've always wanted to see a *real* city..." at least a city she hadn't silent her entire life in.

Angelo would jump out of his seat, would it not result in several ounces of rice and seafood being scattered. "I would be happy to take you on a tour of the city, Charlotte." He barely keeps from putting an exclamation point on the end of that.

"As long ad its not a bother.." she said with a smile. "and as long as I can take some of this along, because I don't think I'll ever stop eating."

Sengai didn't like New York. If he could he'd stay in the Consulate all day.

"New York is..an experience," Sengai replied, with just a slight hint of contempt.

"I'm sure Angelo can watch out for the two of us if you'd rather not come...I promise we'll be perfect angels."

She looked hopefully between the two men.

"Your consideration is appreciated, Charlotte, but it'll take more than this city for me to shirk my duty," he says with a good-natured smile. "Besides, I have to get used to this city somehow."

"If you'd like to take Angelo along as a somewhat native guide, given the time he's spent searching for markets, restaurants, theatres and the rest, the consulate would be happy to fund some time sightseeing for the three of you."

"Alright, the three of us then...What about you Andrew? Or Gio? You're more then welcome to join us."
