[ Humor is one of those things that separates people from animals, but it's tough when you can no longer tell whether a joke is really a joke or not. You can't toss out a "just kidding" and just expect to be forgiven for everything that came before it?? ]

I'm afraid we don't have any sushi-grade Tanya in house today, but I'm sure you'll find the chef's choice just as satisfactory. I'll be back shortly.

[ She sketches an only slightly sarcastic bow before taking off into the sky. She'll have a minute's worth of travel time to think about what she should get for Alisaie. Something nice and filling, of course, but she also has to think about Alisaie's position. Forging a friendship also means being considerate about the other party's needs — even Tanya knows that.

Not too much later, Tanya comes zipping back with...... some submarine sandwiches (or something like them). Easy, packed with calories, and utensil-free. No one can hate a sandwich. Hopefully, Alisaie was able to keep her nose out of trouble while Tanya was gone. ]
