[Command] Share and walkwith

I searched the forums but didn't see anything, so link me if this has been posted already.

It would be nice to share certain items, like a full pie or cake, with other characters in the room. Currently I'm only aware of just giving everyone in the room their own and then RPing that we "shared". That just gets item heavy and can be smote buggy if people have response lag.

If we could type "share [food item] <target/all>" then a "portion" is given and immediately consumed. It would be as if the other characters "eat [item] <container>" but from the person sharing. Text could echo for the room that [character] splits up and shares <item> with <target/everyone>.

Secondly, and to save some forum space, it would be nice to walkwith someone. This command is really just fluffery for characters in relationships, but it could also be used if say Beskytter is speaking with Lylena about something and they're walking (happens a bit). Then when we enter a room with others in it, they will see that "Beskytter/Lylena is walking with Lylena/Beskytter" or adjectives if they haven't greeted. Who is walking with whom would be based on who types walkwith.
It would make more IC sense than the current echo of each character walking in the room individually.
(I could expand on this but I'll refrain.)

I don't know if I'd like a command that effectively forced me to eat something... a non-friendly character might not necessarily want to accept your offer of food.

Good point,
That would be where I leave it to RP to decide, but I do think you're right. Will need to think of a way to do it where the non-friendlies are able to deny sharing.

Perhaps, a prompt to each person. "Beskytter would like to share a sunrise pie with you, do you accept?" then just type accept besk and done.
