018 // action - union divine theater/ninetales vale/around union
[ a - union divine theater ]
Ah.....Left.
[ The Machomp and Nidoking holding up the decorative carving nod and move accordingly. Haruka surveys the result from several paces away, arms crossed. ] That's good.
[ A hired carpenter and her Mankey move in to affix the refurbished peace. No longer needed, Haruka glances around the rest of the damage. The dorm is mostly repaired by now, but the Theater is a long, slow process. They won't be putting on any more plays for a while...
...wait. ] Gene!
Woop! [ A Wooper flees the scene, the small rain cloud that'd been forming above some paint cans dissipating. Isn't he even allowed to dance his support anymore?!
He isn't really looking where he's running, and may very well end up lost. ]
[ b - ninetales vale ]
[ Ninetales Vale, while a haven for the physically spiritual, is also a place one can come for less directly spirit-related needs as well. For example, this unassuming building that has just reopened for business, every perfectly-shaped roof tile in place, is widely-known as one of the best places to go for a form of meditative hospitality centered around the drinking of tea.
Haruka is headed there now, dressed appropriately in a robe that crosses across her front. She takes a deep breath in front of the place, smiling to herself. Things are only going to get worse from here. She might need this. ]
[ c - HEADED RIGHT AT YOU, OH SAVIOR, GET OUT OF THE WAY ]
Move!
[ If the shout doesn't get you moving, Union pedestrian, perhaps the sound of a professional racing Rhyhorn thundering towards you on the open street might. It looks terrified, and is being pursued by a tall young "gentleman" on foot, who hurdles over a table of street wares like it wasn't even there in her quest to catch up to the stray beast.
The street is too crowded. So the young man looks for a handhold and begins vaulting himself up...onto the rooftops. Hope you weren't about to open a window! ]

That's how Haruka is seeing it, anyway. ]

So are there more intricate movements involved in opening up her tea and scooping it out that might strictly be required to get the tea where it needs to go? Of course. That's the point, and yet, there's a simplicity to this, as well.
In what feels like no time at all - there's a timeless quality to this ritual -, it's time to whisk her tea. Mienshao smooths her fur flaps behind her paws and begins. ]

And it's just about done. Mienshao has to take the texture of this bowl into consideration when whisking so no froth flies out, but she's nearly ready....
....and there she goes, drawing that same swirly symbol on the top.
She did it. She prepared the tea. ]

[ And then, as etiquette dictates, she turns to Rei. ] Pardon me for going ahead of you.
[ What? She can do formal when she has to do formal.
Acting! ]
no subject
Of course, Senpai.
[She can be formal too.]
no subject
Shao. [ Mienshao fetches them for Haruka's appraisal. Haruka exhibits an appropriate amount of reverence for each tool.
Sorry to make you wait for your tea, Rei. She wanted to do this for their hostess. ]

Mienshao cleans the bowl and prepares tea for Rei. Here you are. She doesn't speak, not to someone who isn't the most prominent guest, but she lets her welcoming gestures do the speaking for her. ]
no subject
Rei sits patiently though, waiting till Mienshao's done before taking and sipping the tea quietly.]
no subject
Either way, Mienshao is actually far more interested in Rei's reaction. Maybe that's mean, or unfair of her. But Rei had encouraged her before, and is a regular. She can't help it. ]
no subject
Thank you.
[As polite and formal a thank you as can be managed, and traditionally appropriate too.]
