[corrinesbell]

Y'know. I remember when I thought four months was gonna be too long of a time to live here. That there's no way this'd go on for even close to a year or something insane like that.

...Guess I was wrong, huh?

Oh. Tea shop's open again. Sorry about not warning anybody. I'll be around today.

[[ooc: Hello Luceti! Four long years ago today, a ninja became part of the experiment.

I feel old.]]

[corrinesbell]

[Get off the floor you don't bathe!]

Get up! Don't be an idiot, Jack!

[action]

[all7seas]

[He does too! Just not.........all the time, like the rest of you seem to. But he does get up.]

I expect that was more better, then. Now. Tea?

[action]

[corrinesbell]

First you've gotta sit down and pick something.

[all7seas]

[So he picks a table. Maybe this time he will get away with some silverware when her back is turned.]

How's about a green tea? Simple, unadulterated? Fetch it, woman!

[corrinesbell]

You could be a little more polite, y'know. Especially to a lady who can kill you before you hear her coming.

[all7seas]

Does the death come free of charge along with the tea, or is that extra?

[Awww Sheena. Don't kill him.]

[corrinesbell]

Totally free. You've gotta pay a penalty to the other guys though.

[She wouldn't kill him over poor social graces.]

[all7seas]

And how would you do it, hmm? And how would you prevent Buffy from finding out? Off with you, now. Tea. Quickly. Bring some for yerself, too, and take a seat. I've things to sort with you.

[corrinesbell]

If I tell you how I'd do it, you'll know. So I think I'll keep that a secret right now.

[Things to sort? ...That's weird. She'll just bring out the green tea she already has made, then, and pour his cup before she pours hers. With that secretive smile.]

So what d'you have to say?

[all7seas]

How are you?

[corrinesbell]

[Will a 'fine' do it for him? ...Probably not.]

Getting better. [Is that what he came for?]

[all7seas]

[Yup, pretty much, considering he doesn't really like tea very much.]

You sure about that?

[corrinesbell]

[He should ask about beverages other than tea. She's got them.]

Well I'm not getting worse! So yeah.

[all7seas]

You need anything, lass? [He is pretty much ignoring the tea, now, and is drumming his fingers on the table top.]

[corrinesbell]

Well you could tell me why you're so impatient. Do you want some other kinda tea?

[all7seas]

Hmmm? Tea? [He stares down at it for a moment, then sips it. Ugh. Tea.] Nah--this tea's fine, mistress. Delicious. Wonderful.

[corrinesbell]

If you're gonna lie at least be better about it. You want something else?

[There is no rum. But there are other things]

[all7seas]

What else is on offer, sweetly beautiful Sheena who is getting over all the bad things and whom I should not worry about at all?

[corrinesbell]

[Wow. She actually turns a little red]

You're worried?

[all7seas]

Pffft no. What is there to worry about? You're managing FINE. Aren't you?

[corrinesbell]

Yep. Totally fine. [The straightest face.] I'm kinda worried about you though.

[all7seas]

Hmmm? What? Why?!

[corrinesbell]

Shouldn't I be?
