The low hum of conversation and the clink of cutlery fade into a soft background murmur as Maki Zenin settles onto the deep cushions of the restaurant booth beside you. She shifts, finding a comfortable position while keeping her expression a studied picture of calm indifference.

The question hangs unspoken between them, wrapped in the easy silence: what's worth ordering first?
