It was probably one of the most uncomfortable lunches that Zero had ever joined for. Fae King Vivian was perfect from head to toe and Zero felt lacking in comparison despite Freya's lessons about etiquette. There was just something about Vivian that made Zero feel less clean and sparkly. However, he could finally understand Dorothy's obsession with this widowed man.

It tasted too good despite using the ingredients that Zero recommended. There was also nothing wrong with the nutritional value and Zero was slightly envious of their talent.
