[It's always nice to talk to people! At the question, Delight tilts her head a little, thoughtful, before responding.]
They were- hm, how do you describe it? They were portions of my power. Like mini-favors to you all, for doing such a great job and being happy during the party!
So it is. Your systems have difficulty recovering from them, I think.
[There's a pause at that though, and she frowns. Any sort of similarity was purely coincidental, but she's not going to immediately dismiss someone who wants something.]
Oh, no. It’s just an herb, we use it to flavor things. I’m particularly fond of it, I chew the leaves. Keeps your breath fresh. I have mint plants all over my desk just for that.
[ A little pause. ]
I just wondered where you got the flavour, because I miss it. I thought there might have been mint plants somewhere here.
I can create one for you, but I need more information on it. What it does, how it works- that sort of thing. Also, you'd have to do something for me in return!
[GOOD JOB, Gansey. Delight grins, all of this made far easier now.]
What you would need to do is to take them to my temple and place them on the altar. I can do the rest of the work from there! [And then-]
What I want you to do, before you give me your leaves, is to make two people laugh. The real kind of thing, not just being polite. Do you think you can do that for me?

Well, Delight had used the flavor. It seems appropriate. Also, he's not sure he'll ask at all until he knows what he's asking for, so: ]
Hello, Delight. This is Gansey.
I was wondering if you might tell me about the shots you made, when your bar opened? They tasted like mint. And kept me awake.

I actually meant the flavor. They tasted like mint, and I wondered where you got that from. I would love to find some here.

Do they? Is mint a drug from your world?

[There's a pause, and she taps a finger to her chin, considering it.]
Would you like one?
Re: video
Maybe it's not, though. ]
I'd like one very much! Yes. Do you know how I could find one?

[That's a bit tricky.]

Well, she is a goddess. Maybe she can. Gansey considers it. ]
I had a few leaves in my pockets when I came here. I've been saving them, and what's left is dry and brittle by now, but...
Would that help, to show you?
What would you want me to do?

Yes, I think so. That seems very fair.
I'll come to your altar when I've managed it, is that all right?

[She nods quickly, flashing him one more quick smile before shutting off the video.]
