[ This time, there are no nightmares and no screaming, no malfunctioning PORTAL broadcasting something to an unintended audience. Instead, it's just Ariadne giving everyone a slight smile from beneath her red mask, looking a bit sheepish. ]Hi everyone. I know it's been a few days, but I wanted to make sure everyone was doing all right after this

Perhaps some tea would be calming as well?

[oneminutemaze]

That's a good idea. I had some coffee the other day, but tea would probably help more.

[ruffleddress]

I do hope so. Things have certainly been ... hectic, around this city as of late. Tea has helped me to calm down as well.

[oneminutemaze]

I heard about the monsters last month, but I wasn't here for them.

Is there a specific type you've been drinking?

[ruffleddress]

That may perhaps be a blessing. Things were terribly violent.

Oh, many kinds, to be truthful. I enjoy trying new blends whenever I can, though there is much to be said for a simple Earl Gray.

[oneminutemaze]

I don't think things would have ended well for me if I had been.

Mmm, that's true. [ Ariadne picks up her PORTAL and heads into the kitchen, intent on making a cup of tea now. ]

I had Lemon Grass with a friend a while back, too.

[ruffleddress]

I am quite sure many would agree. At the very least, things have calmed again from that event.

I see. Tea shared is often much more of a delight.

[oneminutemaze]

Yeah. [ A smile as she makes her tea, looking out the window for a moment. ] It's really kind of beautiful here, when it's calm like this.

I'm Ariadne, by the way.

[ruffleddress]

Isn't it? I have seen many lovely things here too, and there is still so much more that I have yet to see.

I am Ahim de Famille. It is a pleasure to meet you, Ariadne-san.

[oneminutemaze]

Do you have a favorite out of what you've seen?

It's nice to meet you, too.

[ruffleddress]

The flowers, I believe. They are all so very different and each is quite exquisite.

[oneminutemaze]

I was going to take a look at the gardens when I first got here, but the person I was with was getting agitated. I haven't gotten a good look at them, and with it being fall...

Oh well. I'm sure it's still beautiful.

[ruffleddress]

There are some species which bloom most beautifully in the autumn. And when kept indoors, one need never go without their beauty.

[oneminutemaze]

I've never had much of a green thumb, unfortunately, or else I'd probably try filling my apartment up with them. I might anyway, just to see if it turns out.

Do you have a favorite?

[ruffleddress]

Nothing I have seen on the planet.

[oneminutemaze]

Aww. Shame.

[ Ariadne looks around her kitchen, absentmindedly imagining it with plants. Hmm... ]

Maybe just some greenery, for now...
