Object
Danish Pastry (Snack)
A palm‑sized, flaky Danish pastry with a faint sugar glaze and possible fruit or custard center, resting on a napkin or plate as a casual table snack. Characters do not consume it; Fitzwallace notices and gestures toward it briefly. The pastry functions as a small, tactile domestic detail that grounds the room's formal tension in everyday materiality.

Purpose
Edible snack; served or left on the table as a casual refreshment.
Significance
Acts as a modest signifier of setting and habit — the ordinary pastry punctures the high-stakes exchange, making the meeting feel lived-in and underscoring how quotidian comforts persist amid moral and strategic confrontation. It carries no direct plot function beyond texture and tonal contrast.
