It is past midnight and there is currently one not-so-mysterious figure sneaking into Boys' #19 Annexure via a window!

I'm the same, actually! I truly believe this to be the spring of my youth and wouldn't change it for nothing else~

[adonis-coil.livejournal.com]

The time with youth, energy, and a fine, learned appreciation of the better things in life~ It is the sum of the best of all things! Do you prefer green tea or Earl Grey, by the way?

[pictureustogether]

Oohh, Earl Grey, please~

[adonis-coil.livejournal.com]

Excellent! As that would have required another pot to be made~ I find it's a much better evening tea.

[Fishing out a tea strainer from one of the bags, and two blue china tea cups, unwrapped carefully]

It's a little amazing the leaves I had thought to spirit away with myself on this travel have lasted this long, but reasons like this are rarer here~

[pictureustogether]

I agree~! *laughs and peeks to get a better look* And I'm glad they did, because I'm really looking forward to Sohma-san's tea~ ♥

[adonis-coil.livejournal.com]

Such things I do not often grant but on special occasions and people~

[movements are long and graceful, from pouring with a certain loose-wrist flair to adding just a dash sugar to the cup nearest Akiha. The warm smell of tea leaves and oranges fills the small room.]

I would normally seek to sweeten to taste, however, I'd fear losing the particular blend, or your appetite for the cakes. An indulgence for just this time?

Mmh. *nods and watches quietly, so as to not disturb Ayame; paying attention to the smallest of details, and smiling comfortably at the tea's scent. When he finally speaks, it's in a very quiet tone*

It's okay, I don't mind. *nods*

[adonis-coil.livejournal.com]

[Nods that that, and smiles to himself. Both cups are set in their saucers on the little table they'd set up next to the bed with unusual ceremony]

Please go ahead~ [Sets the kettle down in by the sill before turning to sit next to Akiha]

[pictureustogether]

Mmh. *takes the cup and brings it close to his lips, taking in the smell of the tea for a brief moment, then takes a sip*

[pictureustogether]

...

[pictureustogether]

Ahh... it's. Delicious and-- *gestures with his hand* the taste...

[adonis-coil.livejournal.com]

It suits then?

[adonis-coil.livejournal.com]

It IS only the best, in combination with my unique and perfected style of brewing~

[pictureustogether]

It's the best I've ever had, no question! *another sip* Mmmh.

Oh, and before I forget! *reaches down under the bed and produces a small tray* I hope you like strawberries~ *uncovers it, and voila~! cake!*

[adonis-coil.livejournal.com]

I do~ For some reason, Gure-san always had the sweetest on hand when I should visitor...

Kiha-san, that WOULD be fit for a king! That must have been some magnificent talking in the kitches~

[pictureustogether]

Ah, ah~ *cuts a slice swiftly* I made this one myself! Hopefully it won't be too sweet for you.

[adonis-coil.livejournal.com]

Made it...

[adonis-coil.livejournal.com]

Just when I would have thought I knew all of your talents~ [Drapes, it DOES smell good]

[pictureustogether]

*laughs, leaning on* I don't think that counts as a talent, really! I'm no kitchen expert, but since you were already taking care of the tea, I figured it wouldn't hurt.

*forks a small piece of cake, with all the intentions of feeding it to Ayame* But! We still need the final verdict, of course~ ♥

[adonis-coil.livejournal.com]

I shall most happily accept the favor of being such a judge! [Curls his hand around yours lightly and leans forward to take a bite]

[adonis-coil.livejournal.com]

[Theoretically, something so sweet SHOULD be overpowering... except...]

[adonis-coil.livejournal.com]

It's excellent~

[pictureustogether]

Is it, really?

[adonis-coil.livejournal.com]

I could never lie about such a thing!

[pictureustogether]

*see icon*

I'm so glad~! ♥
