“That sounds tasty,” Jasper approved of his sister’s choice, smiling warmly at her, though he paused when she requested a glass of what he was having. Jasper shook his head slightly to the waiter. “I’m sure a white will be a better combination with the risotto,” not that jasper knew a whole lot about wines and what went with what. But he did know she wouldn’t be at all interested in a glass of what he was having. Jasper smiled reassuringly at Arya as they sent the waiter off on his latest mission, tossing her a playful wink.
“How incredibly rude,” Jasper teased, amused but delighted for his sister’s good fortune and the sales her small business made. He would give up all the lavender if it meant good business for Arya. It was still a pity that none of his favourite flower made it into the bouquet, but he would survive. “I’m glad for you,” he added, in case his teasing hadn’t made that clear. Jasper took pride in his sister and her achievements, and never hesitated to shower affection on her or praise her when things went well. She deserved all the best the world could give, at least as far as Jasper was concerned.
“As ever,” Jasper smiled, taking a swig of his ‘wine’, and smiling appreciatively when the waiter appeared with their meals and his sister’s white wine. “Thank you,” he said mildly, accepting a refill as he turned his attention on the food before him. It was a small portion, but Jasper had no issue with that. He could and did eat foods, but it wasn’t as delicious as it had been prior to his new life. “I’m working later tonight,” he said as he picked at his poutine, forgoing his fork to pick up a fry in his fingers. “But not for an hour or so.” Plenty of time to linger over dinner with his sister before he went to man the bar for Indulge. “I enjoy it! So many delicious people with too much alcohol,” Jasper stuck his tongue between his teeth playfully; Indulge did bring all the beautiful people out to play, but Jasper’s comment was a double edged sword. Aside from random Nulls, most of those in Indulge were delicious to eat, too.
