The offerings have Iskierka's whole attention immediately. She picks up a chickpea in her beak, turning her head this way and that, before tossing it back with relish. A mushroom is next, though she only gets as far as examining it before setting it back with the others. The carrot medallions--

She can multitask, as she picks over the food, sending her pleasure with the legumes as well as cascading images of what she likes best: Mostly meat. Fatty strips of bacon, ground meat, insect grubs... Oh, plant food is fine, and all, but few things were tastier than animals. At least, for the creature she resembles.

She scoops up another chickpea as Deku qualifies the message before delivering it, and squishes the chickpea in her beak when he does deliver. One half ends up back on the counter; she swallows the other.

A dense and wordless query follows: How did that keep him safe/is he going to vanish from the public eye/why is he deciding on this now? It's a braid born of concern, but for him, not for this fearless Omen and her denervated Sleeper. What's getting attacked over who they befriend, anyway?
