Emily smiled at Aramis, enjoying his laid back attitude. The bats fluttered around in order to serve the Mooboo Prime Rib which was cooked nice and rare.
"Anyone prefer their steak cooked a little more?"
A bat with a ladle was putting the mushrooms on the side as well as offering mashed potatoes with dragon gravy. Apparently there was some left over from the last feast. She would enjoy her last meal here with relish.

Boogie waves his hand, "No, I'm fine. I like it close to rare but I like it warm."
He slowly chews his food and stays calm. He was working out the different scenarios in his head. The more he looked at the possibilities, the more he saw it likely that he would break apart from Laharl's struggle for the throne. If Laharl proved himself unsuitable, and he couldn't find a usefull idiot to serve as puppet ruler, he might as well make a bid for Overlordship himself.

Laharl quickly finished off his soup and eyed the rest of the demons at the table. He didn't recognize one of them, knowing only Emily, Aramis, and Maderas by name; the rest unknown to him or zombies.
"Hm, hm, hm."
He chuckled softly to himself as he thought of taking them all out, just to prove his strength against all who may oppose him; his mouth half open as he daydreamed. He was brought out of his thoughts by the offerings of more food and he greedily took each item offered in hefty portion as he mumbled his idea of appreciation.
"This is much better than the slop Etna makes...

Emily folded her hands to herself for a moment before starting to eat her dinner. She cut the meat into slender pieces, taking a mushroom bit or two with her bite. At the Prince's comment, she thought that would be the best compliment from him for the evening.
"Why thank you, Your Highness!" Emily replied with a smile.
Now she was curious about this Etna...
"So, tell me more about this 'Etna'... just must be one of your more trusted vassals if you let her make your meals."

Aramis clearly wasn't one for manners, the second the food touched his plate he tore into it like a wild dog. Of course, when you spent all of your time with a pack of unrully zombies, manners weren't the sort of thing you encountered very often.
However, there was a destinct change in his demeanor with the mention of Etna. He slowed down his eating, and mutered softly, "I don't care what Laharl says about her, she's the best."

Boogie swallows his food before commenting, "Etna is probably one of his more reliable vassals, then again she's the most likely to kill him in his sleep. Better watch out, Prince, I'll bet that she's figuring out a spot to have your head mounted on the wall."
Laharl's mood seemed to be improving, but Boogie was still a little anxious about whether he would still be allying himself with Laharl and his ascencion to the throne. His brow furrowed, perhaps he could use Etna as his stooge for the title of Overlord.

Laharl was enjoying his feast, the blood dripping down his chin as he devoured his food at an inhuman, as he was a demon afterall, pace. His eyes wandered then from his food, to the female; and to Aramis. His mouth was half-open, food spilling out as he spoke; for he was rather lacking in the manners department.
"Etna was a vassal of my fathers. She tried to kill me..."
He let his gaze fall upon Maderas and he continued.
"Under orders of another demon, who stole her memory... but I forgave her. She may be petty, and flat chested, and she can't cook.. but she's a hard worker."
He mumbled the last part as he stabbed at the meat on his plate with his fork, his eyes lowering back to it; embarrassed at speaking such kind words. Even if they were true.

Boogie smiled when he heard Laharl's praise of Etna, he may have a hard shell but it may be possible that he could be capable of mercy and even intelligence. He leaned forward, eagerly waiting for the next twist in events. His eyes turned to Maderas, things were looking bad for this treacherous vassal. A wicked smile stretched across his face, Boogie wasn't certain about all the details, but he knew that Maderas was doomed.

Aramis laughed, and gestured at Laharl with a fork that still had a hunk of meat on the end.
"I don't know if I'd call lady Etna a hard worker."
He noticed the food at the end of the fork and bit it off. He continued to talk while chewing though.
"She knows had to make the prinnies work hard though." he took a moment to chew his food, and swallowed. "And look pritie while doing it." however, the dopy smile he had faded as he realised who was at the table. He began shaking his fist angrily at Maderas and Laharl "You jerks beter not tell her I said that!"

Emily purposefully ate little... a full stomach while battling would be a bad thing, but she ate enough to avoid suspicion. Smiling at Aramis and the others she giggled to herself, patting her lips with her napkin. She really wanted to meet this Etna sometime, to show her an honest thanks for quelling the beast that was her ex-husband.
"Your secret is safe with me, my friend."
Staring at her portion, she sighed, her ears drooping slightly.
"Oh my, my eyes were bigger than my stomach... but does anyone else have room for dessert?"
