二 [video/action for Freya]

[withaheartof]

[Since she lacked the luxuries she possessed on Serenity, no that wasn't meant to be ironic, Inara had to wander to Freya's kitchen to prepare her tea. Things have finally calmed since that incident only a few days ago. It's hard to imagine so much can happen in so little time and then be gone just as fast. And, learning what the future may yet hold for everyone here.]

[So much was relying on these visitors, and Inara couldn't help but feel a little powerless. She had always remained outside of conflict, and while she's had training, never once had she been called upon to fight, not even during the war between the Alliance and the Independents.]

So the Gods truly do posses some sense of humor, it that's the power they have chosen as a blessing. [Could Charm even be considered a power? If the Companions Guild even found out, there would most assuredly be an uproar.]

[At least...it was a non-combative power.]

Tea is usually better served in company. If anyone would like to join me, you are more than welcome to come.

If I go, does this mean I have to dress up in a suit?

[Varon's expression really isn't all that amused which shows his dislike for wearing suits.]

[video]

[withaheartof]

It's nothing formal, I assure you. Unless you are that comfortable in one.

[Just because she dresses nice all the time doesn't mean everyone else has to.]

[video]

[last_to_kneel]

Good. No way anyone's gettin' me in a monkey suit.

[He smirks.]

So it's just tea? Any other things that go with it? I'm not big on cakes or anything like that.

[Not after that cupcake event, he can't stand the sight of them for now.]

[Audio]

[occulthymns]

Which power?

[Audio]

[withaheartof]

As it would seem, I have the ability to charm certain people now.

[crownlessking]

[ Travis being a man of action decides to skip any formality of saying he will come and just... well, comes. Have a lanky guy with his hands in his pockets walk into the Freya kitchen. ]

Yo. Serving tea, are you?

action;

[withaheartof]

[It's called common courtesy Travis you make a wonderful first impression.]

That is what the invitation was for.

action

[lovehunter]

[ Masako had walked into the kitchen at the mention of tea. She wasn't one to turn it down, after all. ]

What type?

action

[withaheartof]

[My all the new people we are meeting today.]

Rou Gui. An oolong a blend I'm very fond of, though finding it here was slightly troublesome.

[holmes_fanatic]

[Skipping responding to come straight over? Gee, Hel has all the charmers. At least Conan knocks on the kitchen door before opening it.]

Ah -- am I in time for tea?

[withaheartof]

[A knock? From all the barging ins, Inara was sure no one could be courteous today.]

Come in. I was just preparing a new pot.

voice.

[repulsors]

Y'know, I'm not really a tea kind of man. If you have any— [ hell, he doesn't need to keep drinking chlorophyll anymore, that's right, what's something- oh ] If you've got any scotch by any chance, I'm there. So uh, what's your name?

voice.

[withaheartof]

[Scotch huh? Such a request Mr. Stark.] You're in luck, I happened to have found a rather good bottle just the other day.

And my name is Inara. A pleasure to meet you.

[bishop_frau]

I couldn't turn down an offer like that~ Where do we meet with you?

video

[withaheartof]

Freya's House. Will that be a problem for you?

voice

[artifact]

There are very few who are versed in the art of tea. Would you say that you were?

voice

[withaheartof]

I assure you, I am very well versed in the art. The tea ceremony is a fairly often used tradition.

[audio]

[parasiteye]

Tea, huh.... I wouldn't mind~ [ hi hot lady 8> ]

[audio]

[withaheartof]

[Oh this will be enjoyable.]

It's a good thing I stocked up well. I did not expect so many to respond.

[video]

[duty]

They do seem to have a flair for the ironic. What is it in your case?

[video]

[withaheartof]

Charm. A power I have little intention of using.

audio.

[dai]

Some sense of humor. More like a flippant inability to say much of anything though they expect us to simply accept our existence here to assist them.

You mentioned tea though--what sorts do they seem to have?

audio.

[withaheartof]

Well, flatly calling them arrogant may have been much. I don't want to wind up in a worse position, do I?

I've found a diverse enough selection, though nothing close to what you can find on any core planet. They are rather good if you're willing to take my word on it.

[video ; I hope a late tag is okay?]

[inventing]

I have always been certain that God has more of a sense of humor than most give Him credit for-- I can only imagine the Gods here are similar.

[video ; all tags are okay here!]

[withaheartof]

I take it you are Christian then.
