I wonder if... it is just a reflection of your previous experiences, or... that these experiences draw those sorts of people.
[ he may look! they're just notes, written in neat handwriting. jiji can see a few of the names of the participants, but not much else. ]
... Well, maybe not in that case. [ you can hear the grimace in their voice, there. ] But, I can't fault Mr. Todd for his boundaries, nor can I fault Miss Nonagesimus or Mr. Tealeaf for pressing the issue.
In the end, you all came together, despite your disagreements. I believe everyone was quite united in their worry for you, Mikazuki.
[ orion seems to understand that that was not, in fact, a joke

Alarmed? A bit, if only because it was rather sudden. Fearful... no. I've seen worse. I did want to minimize the damage, though. It's not that I didn't have faith in your skills.
I am grateful to you. [mikazuki is pretty sure he would've been able to handle it either way, but bringing them back to the trial room was much better as far as time went.] It was the simplest course of action.

[ ah. they pause for a moment, reaching up as if to wave the gratitude off - and then pause, hand curling, instead dropping back down. ]

Ha ha ha... it is a large question - but it is a common practice in courts of nobility in Japan. It is a type of art, just as it is a type of entertainment. Tea is prepared, of course, but with particular attention to context, environment, and guests. It is one of the most noted acts of refinement.

I had invited Flayn that, should I find the pieces in time to conduct one, I would have liked to invite her.

It became a bit of a spectacle.

Do you have a preference for your tea, my friend?
no subject
there's a long moment and they reach into their sleeve and summon up
a little straw. then wordlessly passes it across the table. tea straw. this is sacrilege but thats ok.
and then, quietly: ] ...I like green tea, though, recently I have tried a few other types and come to like them.
What about you, Mikazuki?
no subject
elegance is important but you know what's more important? tea.]
Fufu... Green tea is also one of my comforts.
Might you have ever been in attendance to tea ceremony?
