"No judging." Kesari warned playfully, popping another shrimp in her mouth. "I don't get cocktail shrimp all that often. I'm making the best of an opportunity. You find your duck?"

Asha nodded. "No judgment–simply observation. I'd like to talk to you about my visions later today. They were quite vague."

"Those are the best kind." Kesari grumbled, nodding. "Somewhere private, though. Until then, I believe we're supposed to be getting to know each other."

Asha nodded. "After the party," she said, talking about the visions. "And I do believe that's what we're supposed to do. Not that I've seen many Witches and Guardians interact much at these things."

"I've been to one of these, before now." Kesari said, looking around. "So I wouldn't know. Do you want to break that commonality of yours, or should we stick to it?"

"You seem pleasant enough, I don't see why we can't talk." Asha shrugged and took a bite of her food.

"I'm hoping that's a compliment." Kesari nibbled on a carrot, thinking. "You grow up around here?"

Asha shrugged. "I don't know," she said honestly but didn't offer anything else. She never told more than what was asked.

"Alright then. Favorite food?" Kesari asked, realizing the issue with her first question.

She held up a slice of duck, smiling slightly. "Take a guess."

She huffed a small laugh, rubbing the back of her neck with her free hand. "That should've been obvious, huh?"

"Well, I could've simply been craving duck and had a different favorite. I'm going to take a gander and say your favorite is shrimp?"

"Actually, I'm a bigger fan of roasted vegetables." Kesari said, eyes flickering down to her plate. "Shrimp are just a rare treat for me."

"Ah." Asha nodded. "See? A food you wanted but wasn't your favorite."

"Alright, alright, you win." Kesari said, huffing a laugh. Something told her that was exactly how most of their interactions would be from then on. "Music. You more of an upbeat dancing type-or the slow, soulful lament deal?"

Asha chuckled, then answered Kesari without hesitation. "I prefer the soulful sort, where I can hear the emotion in it."

"I have a tendency to enjoy a blend of the two. If I can feel it and dance, I'm a happy gal." Kesari said with a snort.

Asha smiled in amusement, then smoothly waved a hand off to the side to indicate the party. "So, is it at all what you would expect?"
