Leaving the Community centre, Elisha leads Belladonna to the only Icecream stall she could think of. She was taken here a while back but hadn't been back since.

Now was as good a time as any, as Elisha had just become friends with her, and this was sort of the way she thought things went, it was almost as if it was a rite of passage before becoming friends in her mind.

She stood outside the Icecream parlour, which was thankfully 24/7, and held open the door for her new friend. "Do you have a favourite flavour?" She asked Belladonna.

Belladonna didn't need to eat since she had everything she needed to function in her Nyx Reactor which powered her for years. However, she did come with many of the human organs so she could seamlessly fit into society as her mother envisioned, just a lot less messier. She could eat and drink just like anyone could and she could even taste. However, she never tasted a lot of flavors before, so when asked for a favorite flavor, she shrugged. "I only sampled a limited amount, so I can't say what my favorite is yet. I tasted chocolate, vanilla, strawberry and rocky road so far. I'd like to try other flavors." She looked inquisitively to Elisa and asked, "What flavors have you tasted, and which is your favorite?"

She only tried a few flavours? Well, so had Elisa. But that was soon to be amended. "I've only had the chocolate, but don't worry, I've been saving for a while, and should have plenty for a sampling party of sorts."

A few minutes at the counter later, Elisa had several small containers, filled with different flavours of ice cream. "Okay, so I got the normal flavours, like chocolate and mint, but I tried to get a varied selection." She began to list off the products, pointing to each of them in turn. It was possible she may have gotten a few mixed up, though.

"Is having all this necessary?" Belladonna asked, blinking. "This is equivalent to being spoiled," or the very least that's what she thought it meant. She had only expected one flavor today, but there was just so many here to try. She could pick out which ones looked like the flavors she had, and singled them out for later as tasting the new flavors were her first order of business. She wanted to ask if this was really okay, however she knew stores would never take back anything once its paid for. Having all these flavors in one sitting must have been expensive. However, in situations like this, it was always better to show appreciation rather than worry as it may discourage her new friend in the future as she may take it as her not being thankful. "I appreciate you treating me, Elisa."

Maybe she was going a bit overboard. But she wanted to leave a good impression on Belladonna and letting her try more ice cream seemed to Elisa like a good way to do it. "It's not necessary, just wanting to expand our experiences. We're both trying new flavours today." She smiled at the last part.

Nodding at Belladonna's show of appreciation, she continued. "Nothing to it, the samples weren't really that much, after all."

Belladonna returned Elisa's smile with one of her own as she looked down at all the ice cream she can sample today. Its what humans would call a blessing, wasn't it? The android nodded to her new friend. "Which one should we try first?"

Which one indeed? Looking at all the flavours before them, Elisa didn't know where to begin. Strawberry or Lemon? Mint or Coconut? There were a lot of options, and she just knew it would take a while to try them all.

"So, you tried Chocolate, Strawberry, Vanilla and, uh, rocky road, right?" She said, moving these in turn away from the rest. There was still a considerable amount left, but it was something. "How about this. We each try one of the ones from the big group, and explain its taste to each other?"

It was a bit illogical, given how hard it was to explain taste to someone else, but Elisa was up to the challenge, and she hoped Belladonna was too.

Belladonna nodded to all four flavors as they were indeed the ones she had tried before. These four were separated, an efficient way of telling which ones to prioritize with the sampling. While she could immediately tell them apart, she could see the purpose of segregation for humans as they didn't benefit from a completely dedicated headspace for such objects. She listened to Elisa's idea and nodded in agreement. "That sounds reasonable. Do we sample the same thing together and tell each other how it tastes, or shall we sample different ones?"

"Well, we both try it at the same time. We can then compare it when we explain it to each other." She nodded again. Elisa hadn't tried this before, yet it made sense it could be fun to try.

Quickly, she counted the remaining tubs. Seven. "Do you want to choose the first flavour?" Even if she didn't know what was bought earlier, she could tell what they were at a glance, thanks to the labels on the side.
