[She had plans on making him a birthday cake, but didn't know whether he preferred chocolate over fruit, but now those plans seem like they need to be tossed away. A dilemma, indeed.]
Well, thank you for your time.
[Surely, this cannot be the strangest conversation he's ever had, so hopefully she didn't leave him too suspicious.]

[Did Clive do something stupid again—]
no subject
No, nothing is wrong. I just wanted your opinion on something: chocolate or fruit?
no subject
But.
Uh.
Well??? Not what he expected.]
Depends on what it's for.
no subject
Allow me to rephrase it then: sweet or savory?
no subject
Again it would kind of depend. But I suppose...savory?

[The less he thinks about this, the better.]
no subject
...
Yeah he probably won't think much more about this. Still, he's going to poke Clive, anyway, because right now he's curious.]
Very well. I hope it helped sate your curiosity.

[Off she goes to find out what to make this man for his birthday party now. Gale will probably have some books on the subject...]
