132. Tetris [voiced]

[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.]]

[wise_maiden]

Well... at least you felt well enough to open the shop again?

[action]

[corrinesbell]

Whether I did or not, it wasn't fair to leave it closed. People like coming here.

[[ooc: in which I almost type 'clothed' instead of 'closed'...]]

[action]

[wise_maiden]

Maybe having the schedule again will help you, anyway.

[action]

[corrinesbell]

[Before she snaps something about schedules, Sheena reminds herself that Raine really does mean only good things about it. There's no reason to get touchy about it.]

Yeah, maybe. ...You wanna do me a favor and try that?

[action]

[wise_maiden]

Hm? Oh... all right. [There's no reason to let it get cold, after all. She'll lift the drink up to take a sip.]

[action]

[corrinesbell]

Does it taste okay?

[After a conversation with Fuuko she might juts be experimenting with starfruit tea.]

[action]

[wise_maiden]

It's a little different than what I was expecting. Hmm. [She needs to contemplate the change in flavor.]

[action]

[corrinesbell]

Yeah? ...A good different?

[action]

[wise_maiden]

Yes, it's very good. [A warm smile.]

[action]

[corrinesbell]

[Then again, Raine's tastes are...interesting.]

Great. Didn't think I'd get it right on the first try.

[action]

[wise_maiden]

What made you decide to experiment?

[action]

[corrinesbell]

This girl named Fuuko wants to have a...a starfish festival. She wanted to know if there was starfish tea.

...And, uh, no. There isn't. And I'm not gonna try it, she might kill me if I used real starfish.

[action]

[wise_maiden]

She does seem fairly preoccupied with them, from what I've seen. A seafood themed tea... hmm.

... This tasted more like citrus.

[action]

[corrinesbell]

That's because there's not seafood in there and there's not gonna be. [That sounds so disgusting. Fish tea. Ew. Ew.]

It's called starfruit.

[action]

[wise_maiden]

Hm, starfruit? I've heard of the name, though I don't believe I've tried it before. I suppose that goes with the 'star' theme, at least.

[action]

[corrinesbell]

If you can think of some other food that's shaped like that, lemme know. I couldn't.

[action]

[wise_maiden]

I will. I think this is fitting, though. And it does have a pleasant flavor.

[Even though seafood themed would be more fitting. Perhaps.]

[action]

[corrinesbell]

You think? I tasted it and I thought it was too much like juice.
