Tea for two









The Tea For Two Meme
On a fine summer day like this one, it would be a shame to not spend your lunch in a park or near the window over a cup of tea. You can watch the clouds float by, taste various flavors of this wonderful drink and chat with your friends!

Is that not exciting enough for you? Then how about a simple game of exchanging notes and favors?


The Rules:
  1. Post with your character! They are currently in the middle of having tea. The time and place is up to you.
  2. Comment to other people! Keep the conversation going!
  3. Sometime during the conversation, let a note show up on your partner's saucer. The note describes something your character would really like to do with their partner, no matter how innocent or scandalous!
  4. The characters discuss the contents of the note. Feel free to go ahead and agree to fulfill it, haggle and present various conditions of its fulfillment, even act scandalized! The outcome is up to you.
  5. Remember that your character may not have written the note right now, but it's definitely there and written in their handwriting. Also, keep in mind that the most innocent characters can have dirty wishes and the most promiscuous ones can have moments of chastity. Go for whatever scenario you'd like, be it sex or CR!
  6. Have fun!

((Or maybe coffee instead? Nothing violent or NSFW, please!

Quick character info:

Fred Rogers and Bill Nye did a fusion dance and became a foxy Hungarian scientist/beloved children's edutainer.

[ooc: I don't know why I want this to be a thing, but I do. I'm worried about Stolas' potential to end up as roast owl, but I love Rosie. If anything, the owl is in desperate need of romance advice. Thoughts?]

[Truthfully, the prevailing thought among the upper echelons of Goetia was that Sinners were vermin and the Overlords who ruled them, nothing more than common thugs. Stolas had never given any of it much thought. Despite making his home in the Pride Ring, his duties almost never brought him anywhere near Pentagram city or the settlements surrounding it. Which made his current business more than a little unusual. He had his suspicions that this might be the family’s way of punishing him. They wouldn’t discipline him directly for the scandal he’d caused with his choice of bed partners and divorce, but assigning him the duties no one else wanted to cover was fair game.

Fortunately, in this case, he didn’t mind terribly much. Any hesitation he might have felt was overshadowed by his curiosity. So, he found himself standing near the entrance to Cannibal Town, and looking very out of place, all ten feet of him, in all his royal finery. He could have simply opened a portal of course, but that would be very rude.]

[While there were a few cannibal Sinners that gawked and looked a little bit like they were salivating, particularly the children, most residents were very polite and tidy, tipping their hats and curtsying as they went about their business. There was one young cannibal lady that was there to greet him, though - right this way, your highness, Miss Rosie is ready for you at her Emporium - and she guides him there directly.

Rosie herself has her Emporium staff keeping the place from getting too crowded like it usually is - today she wanted it prettied up for their royal guest. Curtsying properly when Stolas was brought to her, Rosie smiled up at him.]


Welcome, your highness! Come, come, I've got tea ready to go - are you hungry, dear? I could fetch a nice juicy rack of ribs, or maybe some head cheese if you'd like a little more refinement!

[Would it really be cannibalism if he said yes? Probably not on account of being a bird, and a bird of prey at that, but he holds up a hand, smiling politely.]

Thank you. You're very kind, but please don't go out of your way on my account.

[He’s been taking everything in as walks through the town and into the Emporium, and it he’s pleased to find that what he’d heard seemed to be true. It's all very quaint and he can't help but be a little charmed by the pleasant atmosphere.]

You have a delightful little town here, Miss Rosie. I’m sure it’s all due to your strong leadership.
enthusiasmdarling: (Such a charmer!)

[personal profile] enthusiasmdarling 2024-03-01 07:49 pm (UTC)(link)
You're too kind! So polite! We're the sort of community that sticks together, y'know?

[Making sure that Stolas sat first, Rosie poured their tea for them - mercifully no cannibalistic treats were out on the table, even if the emporium had plenty on display. No, it was a simple, lovely pu'er tea that Stolas could dress up with cream and sugar, if he liked.]

Now! Tell me, what can Auntie Rosie do for you today?
ornithomancy: (30 | sowwy)

[personal profile] ornithomancy 2024-03-01 08:24 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah, yes. Business before pleasure. [Pulling a very fancy envelope out of seemingly nowhere with a flourish, Stolas placed it on the table between them.]

I believe you’ll find everything in order, but these are for you to review at your leisure.

[The owl demon may not have a predilection for human flesh himself, but he’s only one of many Goetia, some of them with very specific tastes, particularly the carrion birds. And who better to supply their unique appetites than Cannibal Town, itself. It’s a trade deal. A very generous one.]

I’ve looked over the revisions myself.

[And he’s not above taking a petty little bit of revenge on the Goetians who look down on him by spending as much of their money as reasonably possible.]
enthusiasmdarling: (Oh hoh?)

[personal profile] enthusiasmdarling 2024-03-01 08:31 pm (UTC)(link)
[Rosie isn't a legal buff, but through decades of practice she's gotten to be quite the speedy reader and quite skilled at finding any red flags in a document like this. She unfolds it with gratitude, and sips at her tea as she reads through the pages presented to her.

The fact that it's not a mountain of paperwork is a huge token in the agreement's favor.]


Now this is an awfully generous amount to be offering! Much nicer than what's come to my doorstep before. Y'know, you're the first proper Goetia to arrive in Cannibal Town in quite some time, my friend! Our typical royal customers are so ashamed of their conspicuous consumption they don't dare show their face.
ornithomancy: (10| hmph)

[personal profile] ornithomancy 2024-03-01 09:27 pm (UTC)(link)
I’d apologize for my carrion cousins, but we’d be here all day. I believe my extended family thinks they are punishing me for my indiscretions. They left me to draw up the contract. What can I do if they fail to actually read the document before they sign it?

[Normally, Stolas might be more discreet. But after the divorce and the assassination attempt(s)? He officially has no fucks left to give. He sips his tea and gives a sassy little shrug followed by what is actually a genuine smile.]

And I confess that I’ve been curious since reading the feature about your town in the Post.
enthusiasmdarling: (Priiime pickin's!)

[personal profile] enthusiasmdarling 2024-03-01 09:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh hoh, a little trouble up in the coop, eh? Why don't we get a little more fun in this agreement and have them agreeing to come join us for festivities in person, eh?

[Wink! She could absolutely get behind some mean-spirited social revenge.]

We did have an exciting little summer, didn't we! The Princess, oh, she's full of moxie. If you're a little curious, I do still have some angel meat cured and stored away.

[All four eyes glowed a little brighter as Stolas’ smile went sly. Only for a moment before returning to his normal pleasant expression. You’re his new favorite person.]

You are, as expected, a brilliant businesswoman, Miss Rosie. It shouldn’t take me long to draft the changes.

[That earns her a curious head tilt. Angel flesh. That is interesting, but he shakes his head politely, thinking of the blessed rope and angelic weapons that had been used on him not that long ago.]

You're very kind. Thank-you, but I've had enough of anything angelic for quite some time.

[Forever if he can help it.]

I've not met the princess, but she is certainly enthusiastic from what I've seen on television.
enthusiasmdarling: (Oh hoh?)

[personal profile] enthusiasmdarling 2024-03-04 05:02 pm (UTC)(link)
Keep an eye on her, she'll be more pertinent and influential in the near future. They grow up so fast, don't they?

[A little joke from her - the child Sinners in Cannibal Town can never grow up, and the Princess herself is several hundred years old.

Rosie pulls a pen from her clutch, drafting the little contract change before passing it to a notary to properly rewrite for review. Back to tea!]


I've heard a little about your divorce troubles! I assume the assassination attempts are connected to that.
ornithomancy: (8 | profile frowning)

[personal profile] ornithomancy 2024-03-04 05:59 pm (UTC)(link)
[The joke flies right over his head as he puffs up a little with fatherly pride.]

Yes, they do! I can hardly believe my Via is already 17. She's grown into such a wonderful young lady.

[His expression abruptly sours, but it's not directed at Rosie.]

You'd be assuming correctly. It was inevitable really. I don't regret it, but I'd certainly appreciate not having to sleep with one set of eyes open.
enthusiasmdarling: (Priiime pickin's!)

[personal profile] enthusiasmdarling 2024-03-04 06:54 pm (UTC)(link)
She's not being terribly subtle, but you could be. I know a thing or two about getting rid of an unsavory partner!

It's that and relationship advice that I excel at, after all~

You know, I've never actually been to a tea party before. Or had tea at all, now that I'm thinking about it.

[Marina swishes the cup, staring at it with an eyebrow arched.]

So, what's the deal? Do you chug it like vodka, or sip daintily like surplus communion wine?

Closer to wine than alcohol, I'd say. Especially since you're likely to burn your tongue if you try to drink it too quickly.

[ Edelgard is clearly used to drinking tea, in contrast, gently raising the cup to her lips to take a sip. ]

There are different blends, and some people opt to add in sugar or other sweeteners, if this one isn't to your taste.
blood_guts_and_angel_cake: (smile!)

[personal profile] blood_guts_and_angel_cake 2024-03-03 12:18 am (UTC)(link)
[Marina takes a single, cautious sip, pauses, puts the teacup down, and dunks four sugar cubes into it before taking another.]

Ah, now that hits the spot.
