>"Well, this would be a pretty inconsiderate present for someone's birthday."

[Hello Purvis]

>"Well, this would be a pretty inconsiderate present for someone's birthday."

>"It'd be a good start," says Meiling, as she takes the tea in hand and sips it. "Nice."

>_

[Monarda]

>Put our tray on a table nearby or something of the sort.
>Sip our own team.
>"If you say so, i`m glad you like it."

[Kilgamayan]

> Cross the gate threshold, if we haven't already.
> Is anyone else around?

[Hello Purvis]

> Cross the gate threshold, if we haven't already.
> Is anyone else around?

>There doesn't seem to be anyone around, but who knows when a maid might peek through a window?

[UncertainJakutten]

>"Has there been any interesting activity around the gates today?"

[Monarda]

>Did we ever have the need to silence or bribe someone that learned of our relationship with Meiling ?

[Neovereign]

>How close are we standing to Meiling? If we're much too close, we should step back some.

[Hello Purvis]

>"Has there been any interesting activity around the gates today?"

>"Not a thing," she says. "Just watching the waves the wind makes in the grass."

>Did we ever have the need to silence or bribe someone that learned of our relationship with Meiling ?

>Not yet. As far as you know, no one has found out. If they have found out, they have been mercifully quiet.

>How close are we standing to Meiling? If we're much too close, we should step back some.

>You are polite conversation distance.

[Monarda]

>Can we sip our tea now ? If so, do it.

[Hello Purvis]

>Can we sip our tea now ? If so, do it.

>No one says you can't!
>You have a nice sip of your tea. It's not your best, but it's good enough.
>"Any plans today?" Meiling says, after finishing her cake.

>_

[UncertainJakutten]

>"Nothing unusual.  In a couple hours I will have to begin preparing for lunch, but right now I do have free time."

[Hello Purvis]

>"Nothing unusual.  In a couple hours I will have to begin preparing for lunch, but right now I do have free time."

>"That's what I was asking about, yeah," says Meiling.

>_

[Neovereign]

>"Other than that, I'll have to do the usual work that mistress wants me to do when she awakens."

[Hello Purvis]

>"Other than that, I'll have to do the usual work that mistress wants me to do when she awakens."

>"Now you're just dodging the question," she says with a smirk.

>_

[Neovereign]

>"You mean you're asking for what I have planned besides work?"

[Hello Purvis]

>"You mean you're asking for what I have planned besides work?"

>"That's what I just said, yeah," says Meiling.

>_

[Neovereign]

>"Ah, well then, I have nothing in particular planned for today."

[Hello Purvis]

>"Ah, well then, I have nothing in particular planned for today."

>"Huh," she says. "I figured you'd have the whole week scheduled."

>_

[Kilgamayan]

> Do we?

[Hello Purvis]

> Do we?

>You certainly don't mind if people think that. But clearly there's at least some spontaneity in your own time.

>_

[Monarda]

>"Well, i can always make room for something more, i guess you could say i`m pretty good at managing time."
>Nom a slice of cake and sip some more tea. (Om nom nom)

[Hello Purvis]

>"Well, i can always make room for something more, i guess you could say i`m pretty good at managing time."
>Nom a slice of cake and sip some more tea. (Om nom nom)

>Meiling snorts.
>You have some sesame cake. It is rather good, really. Perhaps a bit too sweet?

>_

[Neovereign]

>"And you?"

[Hello Purvis]

>"And you?"

>"Gonna be here til afternoon," she says. "No idea what I'll be doing after that."

>_

[Kilgamayan]

> "It would be a shame for you to be left out here by yourself, then, when someone has the availability and opportunity to join you for some time."

[Hello Purvis]

> "It would be a shame for you to be left out here by yourself, then, when someone has the availability and opportunity to join you for some time."

>"Oh, really?" she says. "That's not too bad."

>_

[Kilgamayan]

> "Indeed. So here I am."

[Hello Purvis]

> "Indeed. So here I am."

>"Who am I to complain?" she says with a laugh.

>_

[Kilgamayan]

> Chuckle a bit ourselves.
> "Of course."
> Look around a bit, to check for people.
> "This does naturally assume you are by yourself out here, though."
> Give Meiling a meaningful look.
