[ Athena takes the bread and smears it with butter. She's not even hungry, but like hell she'll ever say no to food, and once it's in her hands she's not sharing.
She stuffs half the bread into her face and then catches herself, biting down and tearing off her mouthful and chewing properly. She smudges some butter off the corner of her mouth with her thumb before remembering oh right, napkins exist.
Look her aunt isn't exactly strict about table manners.
For a second she struggles to swallow, but she's pretty sure talking with her mouth full would be a step too far. ]
I can't believe mermaids are actually a thing. Even if they are just fish with legs. This place is weird.
