My Dinner Guests Are... #MFRWAuthor

Welcome to week 31 of the 2019 challenge. The topic is "Who would you kill or die for to have dinner with? So how to answer it?
I admit that I am not one of those people who fawn over musicians, sports figures, or reality show stars. Sorry, Harrison, Cristopher, Eric, Brad, Sam, Sean, and Johnny, you'll have to find your own repast. 
So maybe I should consider someone less in the public eye. Over the decades of my professional careers I shared meals with of leaders of their field as well as co-workers whose companionship and friendship I've cherished.
Or I could pick favorite authors to sit around the table. I have enjoyed so many great books over the years that this topic basically came down to writing down my favorite authors on a wheel. Five spins, five selections. More on this thought was in the 2018 challenge, Too Many Books, Too Many Authors.

After additional consideration, I think I'd rather have dinner with some of the characters the authors created. But what would I feed a dragon?
A final option that came to mind resulted from my age and the number of funerals that have been held this year. It would be a reunion of friends and family who have passed beyond the veil.
I have no good answer to who I would kill or die to have dinner with. Maybe the other authors in the challenge do. Hope you'll visit them, and if you love great books, read last years post to see which authors I would share a meal with and the method of determining them.
