Fandom Snowflake 2021: Challenge #3

Challenge #3: Guess Who's Coming to Dinner: Tell us who, from one of your fandoms, would you most want to have dinner with (or tea, or a random afternoon visit), And why?
Immediate thought was one of the Fellowship hobbits. Probably Pippin, because I love him and he's a good mix of fun and thoughtful by the end. Sam would be a delightful choice as well. I doubt we would spend much time sitting about, though, when we could go out into the garden and talk plants instead. However, I realized that I would love to be invited to dinner by a hobbit; I am frankly terrified by the prospect of needing to play host to one myself.
Speaking of gardening, though, I would quite enjoy a friendly visit and afternoon in the garden with Kurama of Yu Yu Hakusho. And if, you know, he happened to slip me a few seeds of the more manageable demon plants from the Makai, well! I wouldn't say no. Actually, in that vein, Reverend Mord and Pastor Drom from Hidden Almanac would be absolutely delightful to spend a day with. Provided I obtained sufficient alcohol to keep Drom amused. Given their propensity for misadventure, though, I suspect their visit would be hazardous for my safety and sanity.
Really, I doubt I'm up to the task of playing host to any of these people. High standards and tendencies toward epic adventure are sort of outside my scope. You know who can come visit any time and who will absolutely find the menu at my house acceptable? Lucky the Pizza Dog from the Hawkeye comics. Lucky can totally come over for snacks and scritches.
I focused on fictional characters, because that's a lot more palatable and more plausible than real humans (and less likely to bite me in the ass X years down the line when it comes out they're a terrible person). But I couldn't help thinking--I would really like to sit down with Guillermo del Toro and talk about monsters. That seems like it would be nice.
