[She's too busy pouring milk to call him out on the potentially stealing that second roll for himself.]

Depends what one of a kind you want. Still life? Landscape? Nude portrait?

[Excuse him. There are two in that package. Angela knows. She felt up the pack before he came over. Glancing down at his polite offer, she smirks and blows him a raspberry, snatching the remaining cake out of his hand.]

You'll need a hand free for the milk.

[Hey, he happens to like savoring things, Angela. There was no need to worry. But he grins, letting her have it, not putting up a fight at all.]

While the idea of a nude portrait is indeed fascinating, I think I'll go with landscape. I'm thinkin' something in the neighborhood of ocean view.

Ocean view, huh?

[Hopping up onto one of her kitchen counters, she takes a bit of the cake and chews thoughtfully. Her head is tipped to the side in a genuine motion of consideration for Neal's request. Oceans are nice. Easy too. She could probably be done with what he wants in a few hours to a day. Not that Angela will half-ass it--not for something that'll have her name on it and possibly serve as free advertisement--but some things are just simpler than others.]

Any ocean in particular or do I have artistic license to go wild?

[He's had a long time of having food, of being able to buy whatever he wants, but the thing is, a hundred years in Neverland and there are some habits that just don't go away, so he's savoring the Swiss Roll like he might not ever get another one, thoughtful as he chews.]

I think you should go wild with it. I mean, you do have the beach essentials: water, sand, obligatory scenic rocks.

[Another few nibbles and Angela's reaching for her glass, one eye narrowed at Neal over the rim. He's sure eating that roll slow, like there isn't another package of them in the basket that she hasn't already made plans to share with him.]

Yeah, but there's also women in bikinis, men in speedos, a lifeguard sleeping on the job... How do you feel about a surfer wiping out?

Not really too into people being in it....dolphins though. How do you feel about painting a dolphin?

[He's grinning, because he's kidding, but he likes this, he likes their banter.]

I feel as much as I could possibly feel about you paying me to paint a dolphin.

[There are some things she won't put on a canvas to be marked there forever, or at least for some time until she could paint over it, but dolphins are nice. Not exactly peaceful and gentle now that science has taught her the truth about them, but whatever Neal wants, Neal gets.

Pointing at his glass of milk with one hand and licking melted chocolate off the other, Angela nods at him and then to a cabinet next to her.]

Want something stronger?

Then maybe just a nice landscape then. That works for me.

[Finishing off his Swiss Roll he can't help but reply with a smirk.]

I dunno, what goes good with Swiss Roll?

[Tucking her fingertips underneath the cabinet door, Angela gives it a good tug, revealing a fine collection of spirits and liquors stashed in there. Clearly, she gives her liver a good beating every now and then.]

In my professional opinion, I'd suggest Irish Cream or Kahlua. On the other hand, I don't think the Glazed Donut vodka that I have would go too badly with it.

Just to make this a real good time? Let's go vodka. Might as well. I'm game for trying anything once that sounds like it might kill my live at the same time I go into diabetic shock.
