A small boy appears through a painting in the middle of one wall and bounces towards the Bar.

On his way toward the Bar, Gavroche is met by Wolf with a tray, who is looking for a ~~victim~~volunteer to test some recipes.

"Oh! Hello! Would you like to try something for me?"

The tray reveals some little crescent rolls, (http://appetizer.allrecipes.com/az/BcnChsTrts.asp) some cheesy bacon dip (or is it the other way around) with chips, (http://appetizer.allrecipes.com/az/ChddrBcnDip.asp) little rolls of something wrapped in bacon, (http://appetizer.allrecipes.com/az/BeefBaconRolls.asp) tiny biscuits filled with cheese, bacon, and tomatoes, (http://appetizer.allrecipes.com/az/BaconAndTomatoCups.asp) and bacon stuffed mushrooms.

Gavroche never turns down food. Ever. He looks at Wolf's tray hungrily.

"Okay!"

It should be noted that the treats have no Anthytastic properties, or even rat-cookie properties.

"Well, go ahead and try them!"

His tail is bouncy today, just like Wolf himself. He likes cooking.

This is definitely good. Gavroche gets a plate from the bar and helps himself to several of each kind.

Ah, a boy after Wolf's own heart.

He laughs.

Gavroche grins at him and remembers to swallow his mouthful of food before he speaks.

"I'm Gavroche!"

"Hi! I'm Wolf; pleased to meet you!" Anybody that wants to try his food is definitely welcome company.

He holds out a hand.

Gavroche shakes his hand cheerfully, somehow balancing the plate.

"Good to meet you too!"

Ooh, careful. Wouldn't want to spill the food. Tragedy and woe!

"You live here, Gavroche?"

Little boys are always amusing, and need to be fed. Wolf knows this from experience. There is no such thing as too much food for a young boy.

"In the House of Arch." He points at the painting.

Snow lives there!

Wolf doesn't know Tom. Sadness.

He eyes the painting. "In the painting?" You'd think that Wolf would have seen a HoA resident go/come through the painting, at some point.

But he hasn't.

"Other side of the painting", Gavroche explains.

Cue wide-eyes.

"You mean it's a portal?!"

Oooooh, cool. Like the mirror? Hmmmmmmm.

"Yeah. To the House."

Wolf eyes the painting some more. With Thoughts.

"...D'you think it would be possible to make another painting that goes to somewhere else?"

"...probably, if you had the right magic. Tom could do it."

"Hmmmm."

For the love of sanity, somebody stop him before he gets an actual plan!

"Tom? I don't think I've met Tom."

"He's the Lord of the House of Arch. Door's the Lady."

Wolf nods. "Okay then. So. How's the food?"

"Good!"

That was spoken through a mouthful.

Eh, that's okay. Manners are no fun.

Wolf grins. "Yeah? Anything need changing at all?"

Gavroche is so not the person to ask that. It's food, it's tasty and not-poisonous, nothing needs changing.

He shakes his head.

Wolf beams. "Thanks! Here, have another one."

He puts one of the biscuits on Gavroche's plate, and goes off to feed more people.
