Raphael poured some in her glass and then hoarded the rest of the bottle for himself. No one could say he didn't share.
Airamond smiled at the young lady. "Yes, I'd like to order. I'll have the roasted chicken. Hannah, what will you have?"
"The same." She said quietly. Airamond glanced around the table. "For the rest of you?"
"I'll have some of this delicious looking duck." Raphael piped up.

Jack awaited as the waiter finally got to his table. He seemed to be one of the only passengers sitting my themselves. "And what would it be sir?"
"Uhh yes, I would like the roasted chicken along with a glass of sweet tea." Jack ordered handing the menu back to the waiter. Roasted Chicken seemed to be one of the only things on the menu that he actually knew, and as for the tea. He just loved tea.

Russell leaned up and murmured something into the waitress' ear. She grinned and nodded, scribbling something down. "And you?" She asked Lillian, who said she wanted the roast beef.

Airamond sipped from his wine glass, smiling. What a lovely night this was turning out to be. He was in the presence of fine company and making new friends.
"I've heard of how Mr. Wolf and Miss Keller arrived on this ship, but you, Mr. Tanner, I've not. How did you come to be here?" Airamond asked.
"Birthday present." Raphael said simply. "My parents decided to send me on a trip, and I chose this cruise line." He flashed a smile. "And you and Miss Fletcher?"
"Vacation. I got tired of the stress from work, and asked my sister and niece to come along. Her mother sadly couldn't make it." Airamond replied.
"Sorry to hear that." Raphael told him.

Lillian smiled at them. "Ah, well, we can all make the most of the people we have here with us, can we not? I mean, it's not as if there'll be anyone else for us to meet that's not already on this ship." She shrugged lethargically, looking around the dining room.
The waitress gave her a raised eyebrow and left the table. "Oi, Wiltshire!" She called into the throng before marching over to the kitchens and vanishing inside.

"Quite right, we should enjoy the people present." Airamond agreed. "Although there is always room for more."
"I for one love to meet new people." Raphael grinned.
"I'm sure you do." Airamond smirked. Raphael flushed bright red, smiling cheekily.

Russell looked up through amused eyes as he watched the exchange between the two.
"Meeting new people and loving it is something I wish I could do."

Raphael grinned at Russell, sipping wine from his glass. "Well, I say you did a fine job today, what with the lot of us you're dining with." Raphael winked and set his glass down. Glancing around he let out a small laugh. "Now where's that food? I'm starving!"

Russell chuckled and lightly ran his finger along the rim of his glass, producing a small sound. "Is it the food you're after, or the hired help?" He teased lightly.

Raphael blinked before grinning, pleased at Russell's light play. "Maybe a bit of both." He winked again, chuckling. "My folks sent me on a trip to have fun, and having fun is what I plan to do."
"Do watch yourself Raphael." Airamond cautioned, though there was slight mirth in his eyes. "I won't watch you play with cultured ladies."
"I'll behave, Mr. Beckett." Raphael promised, taking a sip from his wine glass. "I won't dishonor a good lady."

"Would you dishonour a good man? My fiancee says that you should never dishonour people, you know."
Russell choked a bit on his wine as she said that, hiding his smile behind a napkin. Lillian obviously had no idea what she had just implied, for she was looking at Raphael with that wide, green-eyed stare of hers.

Raphael stared at her for a moment before holding his hand up to his mouth, trying to conceal his own laughter. After a moment, he pulled his hand back down, his eyes dancing with mischief. "No, my good Miss Keller. I shall not dishonor a good man anymore then a good lady."

"That's comforting," Russell said dryly. "How many people do I have to go out and warn?"

Raphael pouted, though one could still see the smile in his eyes. "I'm not that bad." He protested. "I'm a good fellow; I just like to live a little."
"One really shouldn't be so bold, Mr. Tanner." Hannah spoke up, smiling a little. "One might get the wrong idea about you."

"The wrong idea?" Lillian said, giggling a little. "What kind of idea?"
She never could hold her wine well.
Russell watched this all through half-lidded eyes, the long, sooty lashes barely brushing his face as he looked up through them at the exchange.
