Deline sits motionless for a few seconds, then slowly begins to chew and swallows it and then she looks up at everyone else and quickly begins shoveling the rest of her sushi into her mouth.
Cady looks at Harn and Fili just in time to see them simultaneously grimace and bite down, but then their eyes close and their faces relax in blissful happiness.
Harn is the first to speak. "This is..."
"So good!" Fili giggles.
"Is this really something they eat on your home planet, Princess?" Ren mumbles through a mouthful of sushi.
"I need another plate!" Lyra has already finished hers.
"These portions are quite small," Oberon agrees.
Triss has already mastered her chopsticks. "I had no idea you could make something so delicious from a siltgnash!"
"Uh, Cady?" Jax holds out his plate. Cady looks around and sees everyone else looking at her and they all beg in unison.
"IS THERE ANY MORE?"
"We should let Enja in on this." Fili takes another bite. "She'll be upset if she misses out."
"It should be fine." Harn eats another, then another. "Master Izer's padawan can bring her a portion."
"Triss, dear..." Fili scrapes the last bits off her plate. "Why don't you take some of this down to Master Izer? I'm sure she'll enjoy it as much as we did!"

Even with everyone asking for seconds, I still have just enough for one more serving!

Cady holds out the plate to Triss but then sees a flicker of unease in the other girl's expression. "It's fine if you don't like sushi! Lots of people on my home planet don't-"
"It's not that!" Triss smiles but then she glances away. "Cady, w-would you come with me down to the library?"
<span class="mu-i">
Is this an event?
</span>
"I'm sorry to ask, especially after you did so much work!" Triss covers her mouth with her fist. "It's just... for the past few days I've been jumping at shadows. Like there's something waiting to pounce on me."
<span class="mu-i">
Master Izer's padawan... past few days...
