.:An Eternal Night, An Eternal Wish:.

[baebladie]

[ Welcome to tea room curfew.

There is also some really nice alcohol that has been supplied for the room, too. You know, to go with the tea. ]

[baebladie]

[ For the primrose folks and Dan Heng, they would have already seen this change. Anyway, said person is probably also cuddling with Dan Heng or at least leaning up against him while kind of idly carving at a piece of wood, depending on how late it gets. ]

[remainsilent]

[ He can lean or cuddle, he won't complain. Dan Heng is looking more dressed than he has been. He also has a long dragon tail that that is loosely draped around Blade He has a book open that he's reading, but once in a while he'll lift a hand up to card through Blade's white hair ]

[littlegentleman]

Um...

[Very soon, he's going to go resign himself to a corner where he can pretend to be invisible, but Junior's interactions with Dan Heng and Blade have mostly been via glances, so he's going to awkwardly make an attempt at vocalization really quickly.]

I just wanted to say...the two of you look happy together. I think that's wonderful.

[allrounder]

[ He's immediately strolling up to Blade!! ]

Friend, 'tis good to see you. Have you had a chance to partake in the tea?

[oncefallen]

[Don't mind him just peering over your shoulder to look at what you're carving there!]

A gift for someone? Dan Heng, perhaps?

[safetycheck]

[ So, assuming Blade gave her that crossbow, she has it with her tonight and she'll keep it as she waves him over. Sorry, can you detach yourself from Dan Heng for a moment - ah, either way, she doesn't care if he hears, too. ]

What made you choose this for me?

[antline]

[Sariel is just out here pouring everyone tea, dressed in the same detective outfit he had at the beginning of the week. He seems to enjoy it, really.]

You should try this one. It's...camo. Mill? Something like that.

[littlegentleman]

[Junior is definitely feeling especially shy with how many people are in the room, but...he's going to accept the tea that's being poured for him.]

Chamomile. It's supposed to be good for sleep.

[Fidgeting with his cup.]

Thank you.

[oncefallen]

[Hi Sariel. He's in something quite different from his usual outfit today, but he doesn't seem bothered by it at all.]

Make sure you get to enjoy a cup for yourself, too.

[cleansheets]

[ Angelo still has no idea what to think of Sariel since their last talk, but he's going to... at least try and be charitable, for once in his miserable little life. ]

Chamomile. It's famous for its calming effect.

[ Ain't that ironic for Angelo? He'll return the tea pot he'd been trying to leave with and take a cup Sariel is offering instead, though. ]

[allrounder]

[ He takes the cup with a smile. ]

Chamomile. 'Tis an herb that belongs to the Asteraceae family and is oft used as a way to calm anxiety. I do believe it is known to have far more benefits than a calming effect, however.

[divineth]

[Urianger is here in some vacation attire. He takes the cup with a smile.]

My thanks, Sariel. Chamomile is a preferred flavor of mine.

[He nods in Sariel’s direction.]

Thou dost cut a dashing figure in that attire. Art thou an investigator?

[He’s realizing how little he knows about Sariel, but hey, it’s never too late to learn.]

[safetycheck]

[ She takes a sip of the tea. Oh...oh! It's rather good, actually. ]

Mm. What's in this one?

[cleansheets]

[ Angelo is only here to grab tea. He is late in that, certainly, but he is... really truly... only here to steal a pot of tea and go elsewhere...

But there's a lot of people here, so grabbing the tea takes a moment too long and--- ah. Cool. He can't get out. ]

... oh, come on...

[ TRAPPED INTO SOCIALIZING. HE IS DISMAYED. ]

[baebladie]

[ Sipping tea over here...as a fellow introvert, he has resigned himself to places suddenly being crowded. ]

It is what it is.

[oncefallen]

[It's about to get worse, because Vanis is dressed like this and he's sidling over with a grin and a wink.]

Welcome to the party.

[Like, to be fair, he wasn't expecting to be here either, but what can you do.]

[allrounder]

[ Poor Angelo... G'raha kind of feels bad for him, honestly. ]

Ah, you did not expect quite so many of us, did you?

[safetycheck]

Not the social type, are you? Me neither.

[ SHRUGS!! ]

Strength in numbers exists, though. It's not entirely awful.

[littlegentleman]

[Junior will attempt to do a little bit of socializing, but before too long he'll go and scoot himself over to the koi pond. He sits there and watches the water, almost like he's trying to shrink himself into obscurity.]

[safetycheck]

[ You can't run from Big Sis Lili.....

She sits next to him at the edge of the pond. ]

You look troubled. Is something wrong?

[allrounder]

[ Today, G'raha is in something a little different. Definitely a lot more vacation-centered.

But he's here in the tea room too, gladly partaking in the floral tea and the finger foods. Especially the finger foods. The man can eat.

He'll even hold out a little sandwich to anyone nearby. ]

Are you famished?

[oncefallen]

[... you know, despite how he's dressed, Vanis really had been intending to behave himself tonight.

... and then G'raha had to go and ask him that question and activate gremlin mode.]

Oh, I certainly am. Is that an offer?

[And yes, he's absolutely making that sound flirtatious because he can.]

[littlegentleman]

--oh.

[Junior's just sliding toward his corner when the sandwich is offered. He hesitates, shaking his head.]

I'm...really not hungry.

[fourtuity]

[ For the record, Clover is wearing this outfit, most prominent of which are the puffy pink leopard jacket and the white animal-eared leopard hood. So much leopard print in this look. It definitely clashes with the tea and finger foods, both of which she drinks and eats liberally.

When she's not checking in on people, she's going to be poring through a book on tarot cards. A lot of time will be spent on the section about the Hanged Man, frowning. ]

[remainsilent]

[ He's about the same as when she saw him earlier... with a Blade on him. He will give a nod though. ]

[safetycheck]

[ After yesterday, for those in the know, it's no surprise that Lili shows up to the party wearing an eyepatch, accompanied by a cute outfit! Instead of a sword, though, she has a crossbow and is simply holding it at her side. There's a quiver of arrows on her back, too.

All things considered, she's at least somewhat (somewhat) relaxed. This is a good start. ]

I wasn't expecting a whole party...

[fourtuity]

Me neither, but you're kinda a magnet for these, huh?

[ Maybe Lili was the true party animal. ]
