Konan ate enough of the real food to be considered acceptable, but stopped much sooner than Haku. It was no big secret that the sorceress had a sweet tooth, and if she was going to enjoy a nice desert, she wasn't going to stuff herself. Looking around, they'd still hardly dented all the food on the table, only a few plates had been cleared, and a few others nibbled from.<br/><br/>Konan sipped on her water, her usual drink choice, and made a mental note to let Chi know that just because they had a guest didn't mean they needed<span style="font-style: italic">this</span>much extra food. She sighed, realizing she'd probably have to cast a spell to keep all this food going to waste. She smiled a bit though, remembering the reports on the news of good food mysteriously appearing inside poor orphanages and homeless shelters. At least something good came from it when Chi "overdid" things.<br/><br/>Konan saw Haku calling to her and gesturing to the milk. She gave a bright smile when he managed to say her full name. "Very good!" she said sweetly, reaching over to rustle his red hair fondly between the ears. She took the milk from him and opened it, then handed it back, smiling.<br/><br/>As soon as Haku stopped eating, Chi came wheeling a tray through the door. "Who's ready for desert?" she called in bright, excited tones. The blue-haired maid came up to the table and cleared away the trays nearest to them, replacing them with trays piled high with all kinds of delicious-looking, and smelling, and surely tasting, deserts. She also replaced their plates and silverware so none of the flavors would get contaminated.<br/><br/>"And for you," Chi said, to Haku, "A welcome gift!" She set down a mini, but still quite large, chocolate cake positively oozing with frosting and some sort of delicious filling. It had four candles in the top that spelled out Haku's new name. "We don't know when your birthday is," she said, "so that will be today!" The demoness took a balloon that had been tied to her cart and tied it to the back of Haku's chair. "Ask me anything, young master Haku. I'll do it to the best of my abilities," she said, bowing.<br/><br/>Konan laughed lightly. "As I said," she explained to the neko boy, "Chi is three-fourths serving demon. Nothing gives her greater pleasure than to follow orders." A thought occurred to the sorceress. "Ah, Chi dear, can you speak feline?"<br/><br/>"Uh," the maid said, looking surprised, "only about this much," she said, holding her fingers about an inch apart.<br/><br/>Konan laughed. "Ah well. I didn't think so."<br/><br/>Chi backed off, but stayed withing earshot in case she was needed.
